Sunday morning sidewalk housekeeping

The heat is still there, but a little less. It feels more like a roaster instead of a broaster. So I’m not nearly as crispy as I was Thursday.

Nonetheless, some housekeeping items of note:

Tumblr was down, yet again, this morning.
When it is, and even when it’s not, you can always reach me at http://horrorreport.com/, bookmark today.

I took off the automatic music because I wanted people to pay special attention to the past few songs from YouTube I posted.

And finally, ask me anything, tell me anything, and report anything on my open lines page. http://www.coalspeaker.com/ ask I’d love to hear from you.

Enormous sinkhole opens in Leesburg, Florida..
A beauty supply company has been swallowed up into the earth!..
Residents shocked..

Norway police didn't arrive at the scene of death on Utoya Island for 90 minutes

They couldn’t find a chopper.. couldn’t find a boat.

I feel like there are going to be a lot of cops in Norway feeling guilty for life that they could have done more.. No matter whether it’s their fault or not, guaranteed that the thought will be present.

Amy Winehouse found dead..
A life cut short..
Troubled diva..
Sold more than 5 million albums..
Flashback: In June, Winehouse was booed while on stage in Serbia after she stumbled and appeared to forget lyrics to her songs..
And now tonight, after all the online jokes, after all the barbs at her expense, she was found dead at her home in North London ..
…and now joins the ‘27 club’ with Brian Jones, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain..
Funeral workers carry out her body..

Peace out, earth. From my family to yours.. have a safe Saturday night. Little Ayden in the middle wishes it too. Just in his own language.

No more rehab

Singer Amy Winehouse was found dead at her apartment in London on Saturday, the UK Press Association reported. She was 27.

you seem to not think the shooting in NOrway was a radical shooting from an extreme conservative? i think it was. I could be wrong, of course, but I think we need to start looking at people closer who have certain political beliefs

…starting ‘looking’ at persons of certain political beliefs? .. And editing them? Censoring them? … Oh boy. Here we go..

Listen, first of all, without question, anyone who shoots kills maims or destroys is insane to a degree and .. even some people with political beliefs are extreme. I get it.. And yes, this disgusting creature could have been an extreme conservative. I get it ..

But deep down, there is something else at play here.. Something deeply disturbing in my mind about humans themselves. They are capable of things many others cannot even think of.. Holocausts, killing sprees, torture camps, terrorist attacks, mass shootings.. Killing of innocent children.. all disgusting, vile, and rejected by humans as a whole.

I don’t know if I am answering your question or even if you asked one, anonymous, but I certainly think that the killer is a killer first and political believer second.

Eyewitness accounts offer chilling information about Norway shooting

Some chilling accounts coming out about the island of death, Utoya.. Survivors tells how he played dead before the gunman shot him in the back.. .. one said “I could hear his boots and feel his breath’.. Another said that the gunman yelled ‘we all must die’.. Even more horrid, it was open season on the innocent: Gunman had 30 minutes for killing spree before SWAT team arrived.. Norway’s Prime Minister said, “My childhood paradise was transformed into hell”.. MORE.

souplines:

Muslim = terrorism
Christian conservatism = extremist
Killing = killing

ME: Amen.. The media was quick to trounce on Muslims, ,and now Christians.. Ugh it’s frustrating, especially with an island soaked in blood. Just … wow. I have a headache at the thoughts of how murderous humans can sometimes be.

Shameless plug.. but..

I have lots of coverage at http://horrorreport.com/ today on the Norway nightmare.. a true act of horror, terror, and violence .. Utoya Island became an island of death.. prayers with the nation.. And will someone, somewhere, ever be able to explain why human beings are capable of the most atrocious acts of anyone in any animal kingdom.. ? In the animal world, it’s kill or be killed. In the human species, it’s kill TO KILL..

We are, perhaps, more ‘animalistic’ than animals ….

Very chilling image.. if true, the killer standing among his dead on Utoya Island..

inothernews:

Front page, Aftonbldet (published in Sweden), Saturday 23 July 2011.

This newspaper, from Norway’s neighbor Sweden, has a front page photo purportedly of Norwegian terror suspect Anders Behring Breivik, standing among the bodies of his victims on Utoya Island, where the massacre of at least 80 people — including children — took place.

I’m not certain how this image was acquired but nevertheless: it’s utterly terrifying, and terribly sad.
