I was a young subscriber to TIME magazine, and I remember getting this issue in 1993. I now look back … I was 13 then and I am 31 now. I am a father. Wow.. I am what I’d never thought I’d be when I was 13. But now I am completely fine with that… It just fascinates me how life changes. By the way, I am posting this while my son, Ayden, is messily trying to eat his chicken noodle soup. He got mad at first that there were no crackers in his soup… I am at his command. 

Yes, indeed, how life changes.

I wonder what will be on TIME magazine when he is 13. I wonder if there will be a TIME when he is 13……….

(By the time I was done writing this post, at 7:13 pm EDT this Friday night, Ayden dumped the entire bowl of chicken soup on the floor. Guess he’s not hungry)

No this is not a summer snow, this is a seriously bad hail storm that took place in Texas yesterday..

It all just seems to be getting a bit distressing lately in the weather department, don’t you think…?

Too bad SNL is on summer recess. Fox and Friends had an issue this morning, as Gretchen Carlson walked off the set of the show after male hosts made comments on how ‘women are everywhere,’ such as the Navy, golf, and tennis. 

Go Gretchen. Low cut blouse-high-skirt-Roger-Ailes-Girl power to ya!

For those following, you know this: When there is dramatic testimony in the Jerry Sandusky trial that really means the news headlines should be rated X. Seriously, horrible stuff is coming to light. Today’s headline is that Sandusky referred to himself as the tickle monster. Even more, one witness said while a molestation occurred, he screamed in Sandusky’s basement while no one came to help..

All this in front a jury.. I can only imagine what is going through their minds this weekend.

"What was I going to do? Look at him, he’s a big guy, bigger than me. Way bigger than me."

That is what Victim Number 9 testified to today. This is why he said he took part in oral sex and all the like in Sandusky’s basement….

Happy valley indeed.

I am frankly at the point where I cannot even watch the news accounts of the trial or read dispatches anymore.. there’s no way I could have been on this jury. No way at all.

So you’re up next, Karl Rominger. And what say you defense team? 

This one just fascinates me.. Hand prints in a cave so ancient, so old, so long ago, that they are not that of modern man. So modern folks weren’t the only artists .. Art began long ago in Spain.

The AP story on the Spanish cave paintings says this:

Testing the coating of paintings in 11 Spanish caves, researchers found that one is at least 40,800 years old, which is at least 15,000 years older than previously thought. That makes them older than the more famous French cave paintings by thousands of years.

Scientists dated the Spanish cave paintings by measuring the decay of uranium atoms, instead of traditional carbon-dating, according to a report released Thursday by the journal Science. The paintings were first discovered in the 1870s.

Did you read this? 40,000 years old

And here is more:

The oldest of the paintings is a red sphere from a cave called El Castillo. About 25 outlined handprints in another cave are at least 37,300 years old. Slightly younger paintings include horses.

So all those bad stories, bad press, and bad rumors about Neanderthals may have been false. Among them may have been a da Vinci, Picasso, or maybe even a Beethoven. 

An amazing story…..don’t you think?

It's not done yet

Even more news that will intrigue and … make sick.. and convince you that the end is near. Even though it isn’t. Maybe we all just hope it is…

The summer of insanity: Corpses, cannibal attacks, collapsing currency.. and the summer Olympics

News today on the zombie attack: Newly released photos of the ‘zombie victim’ that the Miami Muncher attacked over Memorial Day weekend are circulating the web. Ronald Poppo is the victim. If you so choose you can Google the images yourself, I don’t think it’s appropriate to post them on here. The hospital released two very graphic images of his facial wounds—with his permission.

You may not need further proof after looking at the photos of just how insane the world is. It’s the summer of insanity. Bath salt mania. Frantic crime waves. Tide is being stolen from store shelves and being sold on the black market—a black market shiny clean with Tide, perhaps.

More oddity, again from Florida: A naked corpse washes up on Flagler Beach. There just must be something up with peninsulas this year as well.

It’s only June, folks. How much stranger and creepier could our daily headlines get? I suspect….just as the heat intensifies so will the strange factor. Zombies and rage… are vampires next?

A new study says that the heads of Americans are getting bigger—there’s actually a tennis ball size worth of new brain room since 1825 Does that translate into more brain power? Reviewing daily news headlines would argue no. Instead dumb people with even larger craniums continue to do dumb things.
