One man serves his genitals, another born with them on her head: No drought in penis stories floating online tonight

Maybe he can blame the radiation?? Japan police are investigating a man who cooked and served his own genitals 

Here’s the nuts and bolts of the story: Mao Sugiyama had his penis and testicles surgically removed in March and kept them frozen for two months before cooking them at a public event in May..

Diners each paid 20,000 yen ($250) for a portion..

And of course there is always a Debbie Downer: The mayor alerted police and now international headlines are being made with news that the event happened. No word on what taste the meal had..

No word on what spices were used.

But the Japan dinner is not the only penis story making headlines on news wires tonight.

Unfortunately something that may give new meaning to the word ‘dickhead’: A baby was born with a penis on her forehead (yes, her).. and yes, her forehead. Of course specialists may address the issue. And hopefully they do.. a dangling penis over someone’s eyes can certainly alter vision for the worse. Prayers with this girl. Not sure if prayers are with the man who served his genitals though.. can’t muster enough energy to grasp that one..

Those wildfires getting even more wild

The situation in Colorado becoming increasingly dire as the wildfire that is advancing advances even more, forcing thousands to leave their homes. .. Among the fallout expected: Tourism will take a hit.. There are thousands of people displaced near Colorado Springs . . Something not helping firefighters continues to be record heat.. Here is a map of where the fire is worst..

If you're awake tonight around 1am

Turn off all the lights in the house, brew some tea, and listen to George Knapp interview David Paulides about strange disappearances on Coast to Coast AM..

He was on in March for the same topic and the show was excellent. No doubt tonight will be as creepy.

By now you've either heard of or seen kids bullying a bus monitor caught on tape

When I watched it, it simply sparked a deep anger and disgust in my own human race.. How can kids, regardless of their immaturity level, be so horrid in action and words?

So vile and reprehensible in their thoughts?

So vicious in how hurtful they are to a fellow human, one who is crying as they taunt her about her weight?

This video is outrageous .. but only so because it’s real and true.

I teared up for this person.. the KIDS AREN’T ALRIGHT. The Offspring were right..

Midnight in the desert

The former king of the night, Art Bell, chose to give up broadcasting Coast to Coast AM on a full time basis years ago.  Unbeknownst to many, In October 2010 he did his final show when he did Ghost to Ghost AM from the Philippines .. Since then he has not appeared on the program, even though host George Noory signs off nightly using Art Bell’s name. Also on Saturday nights across radio stations and the internet, older broadcasts of Art Bell are replayed called “Somewhere in Time.” 

For now..

Tonight on his Facebook page, Art Bell announced,

"I have made a request that Premiere Radio cease Broadcasting the Saturday "Somewhere in Time" shows."

Art Bell moved back to the United States some time in 2011.. around the same time, he began posting brief messages on Facebook.. His messages have been from posts about boxing matches to some commentary on how he is not involved with Coast to Coast AM. 

A few months ago, he responded to a question about whether he would appear on the radio program again: He said no.. In the meantime, various large affiliates around the nation have stopped broadcasting Coast to Coast AM in some major markets.. 

George Noory’s direction has taken the show from unpredictable and paranormal to political and conspiratorial.. 

Now the new posting on Facebook has already created a huge online buzz.. 

Comments to Bell’s post range from confusion to sadness, and others are thanking him for trying to completely disassociate himself with the radio program.. 

Rumors persist that he will be back on the air full time..

Bell turned 67 this past Sunday. Perhaps a birthday gift to all will be his coming from the shadows of the desert to explain exactly what occurred that led him to begin a complete dissolution with Noory et al..

Thick haze blanketing Wuhan..

And now this! A giant mushroom cloud forms over Beijing!

Signs clear: There is a worsening situation in Syria.. Russia now sending warships to 'protect Russian citizens' in the nation..Spokesman for Russia says action "in case of necessity"

This happened a few days ago.. but I read thoroughly about it this evening.. 

THICK HAZE DESCENDS OVER CHINESE CITY
Industrial accident? Chemical plant explosion? Naaahhh.. China says simply ‘straw burning’ is the culprit for a thick and mysterious haze that has descended over Wuhan city.. 
The haze is yellow-grey-green in color .. government tells young and old alike to stay indoors..


The haze started to make headlines around June 11.. Around that time, China detained 2 people for “pollution rumor” .. No word on whether those detained are still …around, so to speak..
One theory was that high school students were burning books after graduation.. Much more serious notions of why the thick fog showed up exist.

When I was a kid I purchased gifts for my dad (as I did this year) for Father’s Day. Of course having your own child and getting your own Father’s Day gift makes it special.

When I was younger and dumber I had this notion that I understood everything in the world.. I believed I could answer everything with sarcasm or irony. I could not, of course. As time went on I came to fully understand that..

But having a child makes you realize it even more. 

Mother’s Day. Father’s Day. Days to honor those most important. Yes, indeed, those days matter.

There is a place for mom and dad in the world.. and regardless of television programs and commercials making fathers look absolutely naive and stupid,  there is a place for me in the act of raising my son. As I age and become more of a father I see that. I see the importance of my actions… inactions.. and reactions. Life is short and sweet.. 

Fatherhood seems to make it even sweeter but yet shorter all at the same time.
