The kids aren’t alright. Here is Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev. He’s armed, he dangerous. And almost an entire state is on lockdown as he runs .. 

THIS IS AMERICA, 2013

Authorities urged residents in Watertown, Newton, Waltham, Belmont, Cambridge and the Allston-Brighton neighborhoods of Boston to stay indoors. All mass transit was shut down and businesses were asked not to open Friday. People waiting at bus and subway stops were told to go home. "We believe this to be a terrorist," said Boston Police Commissioner Ed David of the suspect on the loose. "We believe this to be a man who's come here to kill people. We need to get him in custody."

...A curveball of international proportions: The Boston suspects are from a town near Chechnya!?

Identities revealed: The suspects were brothers, from Russia near Chechnya, may have military experience, and have lived in the United States for about a year.. We will see how much of that turns out to be true.. 

More on that military experience being reported ..


And politically and militarily, it is certainly worth noting developments recently.  Chechen commander forms ‘Army of Emigrants,’ integrates Syrian groups


The Syrian ‘rebels’ have been joined by militants from Chechnya in “Jihad” against Assad.


So in essence, the United States  is also funding extremists from Chechnya..

CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF CHAOS

While many slept, they missed breaking news events of epic proportions. It felt like the scene of a BATMAN  movie, except no one is coming from Wayne Mansion to save the day..

A brief timeline of events as they have transpired so far:


  • Shortly after midnight East Coast time, a campus police office at MIT was shot killed.. Gunshots were reported on the campus and an alert was issued on the website .. the situation was called “active” and dangerous by officials

  • Shorter before 3am EDT, multipe explosions were reported to have been used against police at an incident in Watertown, Massachusetts. Speculation quickly connected the MIT police killing with the explosions in the town.. 

  • Around 4:30 AM, news broke that a suspect was on the loose in Watertown, and that the person matches the description of Suspect 2 in the Boston Marathon bombings (the one with the white ball cap).. 

  • At 5:30 AM, news broke that one suspect from Monday’s terror attack in Boston was dead after the night of violence in Massachusetts. The other, however, is on the loose. Police said he should be considered armed and dangerous.

  • Shortly before 6am, it was reported that the MBTA transit service has been shut down until further notice

  • Residents have been told to keep their doors locked and not to leave

  • The town of Watertown, MA, is being considered a ‘hot zone,’ according to NBC

  • MIT classes are canceled today..

This is a quickly developing story.. 

Police are beginning to ponder whether the suspect still alive is not own armed and dangerous, but potentially a walking bomb with an IED strapped to his person..

Hey, I just read what you wrote about conspiracy theories regarding the Boston Marathon. It was such a breath of fresh air to see, especially on tumblr.

Thank you for the kind words. I actually received a few other ‘less nice’ responses to my post on that topic.. Your brief message reminded me that there are some good people out there in bloggerland. Keep on reading, and thank you again.

Pretty horrific stuff, don’t you think?


But yet another day of empty media seats and hardly any coverage.. 
I just don’t get it. This does not have to even boil down  to a pro-life vs pro-choice issue.. I think both sides can reasonably agree on the premise that we are all anti-murder.


The trial thus far has featured a strong prosecution.. this was damning today.. but I still cannot get over the testimony of the maintenance man who became tired of his job because he had to constantly clean up baby body parts ..

Teen: I Am Not the Boston Marathon Bomber - ABC News

Hey everybody

Maybe we can tone down these conspiracy theories? Someone who I consider to be very smart just emailed me what she said was a photograph of the dead Newtown Connecticut principal at the Boston Marathon before the bombing happened. The picture is a fraud, a well orchestrated fraud, and a lot of gullible people will no doubt believe this as of now circulates, as my intelligent friend did..


I understand the propensity to blame and label everything a false flag, I get it. We should question everything and research everything is well.. But it does it make sense to conclude that the Boston Marathon massacre is a false flag when a name of a suspect hasn’t even been announced?


And it is even more disgusting to get stupid emails like I got today of something completely fictitious..


We all need to just calm down a little bit, let the authorities do their work, and let them find who they feel is the suspect in this act of terror..


Oh and one last thing: I am fully aware that people watch a lot of crime stories on TV, and they may even DVR them for later viewing.. But just because you do that and just because you might be an expert on what happens on CSI, that does not mean that you can comb through photographs from the Boston Marathon online and find who you believe that the suspect..


I have noticed that there are a lot of people circling most likely completely innocent people in photographs and putting a little comments next to their faces saying “Could this be the bomber?”


Just call your britches out there everybody, if you want to scream about a false flag at least wait until authorities they may suspect…

‘The whole street is gone’: Bloodied eyewitnesses describe Texas explosion horror


(Photo: Rod Aydelotte / AP)


Shocked eyewitnesses have told of the overwhelming power of the Texas fertilizer plant explosion and expressed fears that there could be many fatalities in the small town that was rocked by the blast.


“The school’s gone, the apartments are gone,” a young man in a blood-soaked t-shirt told reporters. “It’s just horrible. Not something you ever want to have to deal with.”


More on this developing story.

Many are feared dead .. Many are injured..
Here’s video from Texas..



One report said it felt like the earth shook as the blast was felt far and wide..



As many as 70 may be dead..



Hundreds injured.. and now the 2,700 people of the town of West are being told to evacuate due on fears over ammonia in the air..
The scene is reminiscent of a war zone..
It tragic.



And oddly enough it happened before.. On April 16, 1947, a fertilizer explosion destroyed a Texas town..

Boston lunacy: Looking for clues in the sands of time

Yet again, we as a nation are going through some weird deja vu.. A terrorist attack in a major city, shock across the nation.. and then powder and chemicals being sent through the mail.. evacuations and bomb scares from sea to shaky sea. This is America, 2013.. Not 2001. Then it was a much worse attack with a target of Osama bin Laden by the end of the day. This time we still search for someone. Then it was anthrax, with a scientist being blamed and never charged, and he eventually died from the planet .. this time it’s ricin, and we already arrested someone. If we can believe media reports that is.


And should we?


We had a roller coast of emotions today. This morning the trail was ‘cold’ and had run dry. By the afternoon CNN was pounding its chest in celebration of breaking news that “dark skinned bomber” had been arrested. The problem was that he was not arrested. No one was arrested. There was no arrest. Instead rumors being garbled up by everyone quickly …CNN had to back off its story about their dark skinned mail, just as the New York POST had to back off its own embarrassment with their “Saudi national” suspect the night of the bombing. For the record, there is still an AP dispatch of the ‘arrest’  Wonder how long this will be lasting in their archives.


And who can forget about the instant conspiracy theory industry whenever a major event occurs. Alex Jones is rampaging across the airwaves .. he is combing through photos and today on his show said he found Navy Seals—or what he thought of as people acting like Navy Seals—all dressed the same.. with backpacks.. I linked some of those interesting photos already here. 


Last night on the Sean Hannity Fox Noise network program, Hannity and ‘respected’ expert Mark Fuhrman wondered aloud if we should be taking a second glance at people who buy more than one pressure cooker in their lives, even reminding viewers that those new objects of war have lifetime guarantees


But just when you thought lunacy was only abundant not he right wing? Just go left young man and you’ll find just as much. Actor Jay Mohr blamed guns—but on the bright side he didn’t blame pressure cookers. And SALON just went all out, saying they hope that the bomber turns out to be a white male.


Yes indeed, we are living through lunacy.


Conspiracy theorists vs media windbags that want to be first place.. FOX pulling the FAMILY GUY while their news station jumped on the Saudi national original villain. 


What have we become, my sweetest friends?
Everyone I know gets questioned in the end.


Just like the hero from the Boston Marathon, Carlos Arredondo, who now is in the headlines of the day because he was questioned by the FBI and they took some items.

STAR WARS.. from here until eternity!

Fans hungry for new STAR WARS movies are going to be hit hard.. we all will be.


Starting in 2015, Disney is planning a NEW STAR WARS MOVIE every summer.. By 2019 we’d see double the STAR WARS films that exist now. And as Entertainment WEEKLY reports, they are actually hoping that the movies start their very own spinoffs that become just as popular as the original movies..



In modern entertainment, there are two important things to consider: 1) Hollywood is out of ideas, and 2) When they have a great idea they overdo it.



And that is what I predict will happen with this flawed Disney plan..


A new movie every summer?


They will market aggressively. We know that..


The originals, however, are still more popular than the newer films. Because of the cast.. and the originality of it all.


These days we’ve seen it all. And we’ll be seeing it all over and over again every year..


A little too much star wars for me.

More horrific Gosnell trial testimony

More information coming from testimony at the Kermit Gosnell Philadelphia abortion trial.. James
Johnson was a janitor and maintenance worker at the ‘clinic’ .. And he testified that he quit the job because he became tired of cleaning baby body parts out of the plumbing system.. he also became sick of scooping baby parts up with a shovel and taking them to a rat infested basement..

Other workers testified that as some women were given drugs and about to abort their babies, they’d put them on toilets where the baby would spill out.. The plumbing often became blocked up with the bodies..

Every day you’d think this trial could not get worse. And every day it does.

10PM WRAP





A victim of the first explosion is helped on the sidewalk of Boylston Street.

The latest from the Boston Marathon Massacre

There was lots of misreporting by big news organizations earlier today.. the HORROR REPORT linked to several articles that turned out to be incorrect (for now), including stories over 12 people being dead and a Saudi national being a suspect.. Right now, the Saudi national is a ‘person of interest’..

The latest from the city of Boston, which is unusually quiet this night of Patriot Day


Perhaps the most troubling thing tonight is that there is no claim of responsibility, there is no suspect, and there are no answers. The night of 9/11, when Bush addressed the nation, for better  or worse we had a shared cause and a new found enemy of the state—twelve years of war and missteps we question more now than we did then.. but the cause was just that night when George W. Bush gave his prime time address from the Oval Office.. this time, we have no clue as to who will be blamed…

Will the Saudi national become a suspect?

Will it be a domestic group?

Will it be an international group?

Is this the beginning of a new age of soft targets being targeted? Are we entering an age of low-grade terror with big implications? 


There are more questions than answers tonight.. 

With time, we will heal. With time, more will be known.. And with time, we’ll have an idea as to what today will mean to the nation’s future.

But until then, doctors will frantically treat traumatic injuries and funerals will take place for children way too young to leave this earth in a act of terrorism.. 


This world is so often a seemingly endless mass of poisonous psychopaths. Welcome to the planet Earth.

There’s little doubt now that this was a coordinated and purposeful attack on the Boston Marathon

The Beeb shows just how tacky he can be

Get ready world: Justin Bieber is about to attack teenagers as a spokeschild for a company that wants to sell them debit cards. That’s right, hook them in early and addict them to plastic for life.

But while the Beeb is prepping for that crime against monetary decency, he may have overstepped the line when it comes to what stars should and should not say. His comments concerning Anne Frank are frankly tacky—and more so quite shocking that the Beeb specimen may see a backlash of anger.. Maybe his 60% of fake Twitter followers will help out, though..

Here is the story, from TMZ no less:
Bieber visited the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam Saturday. According to the Facebook page for the museum (yes, the Anne Frank House has a Facebook page), Bieber was there a few friends and bodyguards and went inside while a throng of fans waited outside.

The museum then explained … “He stayed more than an hour in the museum. In our guestbook he wrote: ‘Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber.’”

Had she lived … the April 13 diary entry would surely have included the word “douchebag.”

I don’t think I could have summed it up  better than TMZ’s final sentence in the dispatch..

Anne Frank would have been a belieber..
I know he’s into himself.. but by God, this much? So much so that, given the history of Anne Frank and the human race during the 20th century’s great war, he leaves only thinking about what she would have thought of him?? Unbeeblievable.

So much for that: Northern Lights are a no show ..

So much for that: Northern Lights are a no show ..

The money quote:

So the question, raised by pro-lifers, is this: Explain to us why Gosnell isn’t a national story. Somebody else can try. I can’t explain it. It’s never made sense to me, how a local crime story becomes a national story. Two words: “Poop cruise.” CNN ran hours of coverage and grainy video of a stranded Carnival cruise ship, a situation that inconvenienced many and killed none. How does a missing college student or an angry man in a TSA line become part of Our National Conversation? I don’t know. I do know that a reporter in the bubble is less likely to be compelled by the news of an arrested abortionist.

Did anyone ever see a ghost moth before??

Some strange activity just took place in my home, at least I think it did, as I was working out of the corner my eye I saw a shadow flying around near the floor. I quickly turned around in my swivel chair and looked for whatever the shadow may have been. And somehow out of thin air I realized I was suddenly looking at a dark moth with a shadow underneath it near the floor.. 

I wondered to myself in the split-second when I so the moth, ‘how did this odd little creature even get in here, it is the middle of the day it is not flying near any light and it seemed to appear out of nowhere?’ 

It took no longer than two or three seconds before the moth was gone. And I mean gone. Vanished. And the strange part was it disappeared somehow while I was still watching it.

I know there have been some paranormal urban legends that have existed for such a long time about ghost cats and ghost dogs and even ghost rats. I don’t think I have ever heard one about a ghost moth. Until I experienced it myself today, and now I have a tale to tell. 

If the moth reappears out of nowhere maybe my story of a ghost moth will be proven false. If I find a carcass of the little creature somewhere or see him again I will update you all .. but until then a ghost moth flies from realm to realm and it visited me today.

Battling demons with indoor plumbing

It’s been tough being a parent so far.. Ayden  has turned two, and now the real battle begins: Potty training. Mom and Dad have been introducing it to the little man recently.. he’s been understanding of the concept from totally contempt of trying it. We were proud once when he wanted to sit on a toilet at a restaurant that he likes to eat pizza at. But it was a false alarm.. And at home?? No luck.. His grandfather thinks that my wife and I should buy him an old fashioned wooden potty with arms on it—made in America. Which, unfortunately, is just about impossible to find and buy.


But.. perhaps now there is a godlike solution for the poop and pee conundrum. Maybe my son Ayden needs a good old fashioned exorcism. 


Seriously.


This website, http://www.demonbuster.com/potty.html, explains all the ways to ‘bust’ those demons up in your household. And potty training, it would seem, summons the most demons of all.. A reader of DemonBuster wrote into the site and said, 



"Well my baby boy has been difficult to potty-train. He is past the age that he should be trained and I was getting really tired of it. I would sit him in the toilet for a long time and nothing would happen. When I would put him back in diapers, he would go! And I was sick and tired of it. So I got really mad, sat him in the potty and told him he had to "go". The baby started screaming and I got the idea that it was a demon. So I commanded it to manifest and give me his name. The baby continued screaming and saying: "You can’t make me, you can’t make me". I insisted in the demon telling me his name, so the Holy Spirit said: "That’s his name, "you can’t make me". I commanded it out. The baby had deliverance and he has been potty-trained since."



So tonight maybe it’s time to sit down my wife after Ayden goes to bed, and we write a script. Is this the weekend to command the evil spirits out? Is this the weekend where we tell the demons to leave our son poop in peace? 


I love the internet. Before this, who’d ever though that it was demons preventing billions of kids in the past from learning how to properly go to the bathroom indoors?


Thanks demonbuster. Continue the ‘good’ work.

Have you any news of Art Bell's return?

I wish I had some better news.. but nothing earth breaking yet. Recently the owner of the Facebook fan site, People Who Miss Art Bell on C2C, asked Bell directly what is happening with any potential deal. He actually answered and said he cannot speak about anything on whether he’d come back ‘til a deal is done.’


What I worry about is his age.. 
And listening lately to George Noory it’s clearly evident as to why either Art Bell or someone else must take over the show—or it needs to be canceled. I cannot believe how bad Noory has gotten lately..


I used to talk somewhat on a regular basis with Art Bell through email and Facebook. But I am sure he gets more than thousands of messages a day..


Nonetheless, I’ll keep following up and hopefully Art Bell will give news soon. 

Dreams and nightmares.

I had a surely strange dream last night involving several things. To make a long nightmare short, there were a few things that stuck out.. a long-lost friend of mine was in it. He owed a spa.. and his number was 717-747-and I forget the rest.. He lived in a place called “Normandy, PA.” And when I got home from visiting him, my father was driving up the yard in a car he doesn’t own anymore, and he fell into a giant sinkhole.. and then I wake up and see a Russian city is being eaten alive by sinkholes. I don’t see any truly correlation, but … it irritates me when I have dreams like this and am left wondering if there is anything to it..



You're as old as you feel.. right?

And the new generation feels a lot older than their parents at the same age!
