New York Minute: Ahmadinejad travels to United Nations for last address as President of Iran

He’s here..

And tonight Matt Drudge’s DRUDGE REPORT website has a source stating that Ahmainejad is stating at a Hilton hotel with the NYPD and Secret Service setting up a ‘mini fortress’.. Drudge is even linking to the Hilton website where his source says that the Iranian leader is staying..

The stuff they do on hard wood, it blows my mind

Joe Biden on cheerleaders.

Really, he said that.

And this just in from Green Day. Apparently they are still trying to be relevant and hip. And a broken guitar proves it.

Billie Joe had quite the freak out and meltdown on stage because Green Day’s act got cut for Usher. I’d be mad too .. but breaking a guitar? How rude.

It’s almost autumn.. 

I think I saw memories of heat and drought fizzling away tonight as the last sunset of the summer season slowly occurred, leaving behind a pinkish-red aura in the sky. The type if aura that hints of chilly nights and football fights, the kind of light that welcomes frights.. the frights that bite in the cold winter blight. Good evening all.

Intoxication nation?

So 20/20 is running a show tonight called INTOXICATION NATION. I have been briefly watching it.. it’s painting a pretty morbid picture of the current generation, and the drinking class that seems to be classless. People do shots in their eyes? Am I just getting old or what!?

Nonetheless.. I’d be curious on opinions out there. 

Are you a binge drinker? Know someone who is? Want to be one? Hate it? 

The real question though is this: ARE WE REALLY AN INTOXICATED NATION? Has alcohol eaten away our ability to reason? Are we truly just walking morsels of what we used to be?

Opine away.

Three Mile Island nuclear plant expectantly shut down Thursday after coolant pump failed..

CNN reporting this:

The Unit 1 reactor shut off automatically about 2:20 p.m., the plant’s owner, Exelon Corporation, reported. There is no danger to the public, but the release of steam in the process created “a loud noise heard by nearby residents,” the company said.

THE ULTIMATE SIGN OF AUTUMN FOR ME

If tonight’s not fair weather I don’t know what is. Good luck *starting tomorrow* to the great Bloomsburg Fair. Hope people show up in the hundreds of thousands… It was cancelled by a flood last year for the first time in 100+ years.  The first time. Think about that.

So that is what makes this year’s fair all the better. 

Give me the Gyros (though I don’t eat them) and the halushki.. give me the freak shows and the Native American bands.. give me then bleenies and the snake-girl! I want it all! 

I want the cheap knock off ShamWows.. I want the bizarre people selling honey. I want the crazy man selling pianos. I want it all!

Give me the grease, the guy in the trash can who follows people around, the pigs and cows and the dog show for $.50.. Kenny Rogers will be there, too. Can’t beat that, right?

For Coal Regioners who understand this fair, it’s an amazing time. Think about this.. since the 1800s people have been going to Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, for the biggest fair in the state. I have been going since 1980 when I was born. And all through time, lovers kissed under cold starlit nights, families laughed while playing games .. children were in awe of the show. It’s back again. 

So I wish them good weather and great memories.

The Bloomsburg Fair’s 157th fair is set to begin after a long hiatus due to earth changes. Glad it’s back!

Please don’t mistake this as an insult against Lady Gaga’s apparent weight gain.. But if she doesn’t get new plusser-sized outfits soon she is going to look like another ‘People of Walmart’ chain email..

i I know she's rich. I know she's famous. And yes, she's in the Royal family. But I am just tired of hearing about how people unfairly took shots of her naked and how obscure international sources are publishing them..

And in all honestly, the shots so far that I saw.. are.. well? Quite awful. Grainy images of a scantily clad Kate Middleton.. how not exciting.

A sunset in early autumn. An example of why I love fall..

Strange rumors: The USA and China are working on fighting off underwater UFOs..

And this is being reported in VETERANS TODAY.. 

Strange rumors: The USA and China are working on fighting off underwater UFOs..

Calling it a night..

All the news unfit to print. Stained with coal.. all that stuff. Happy Tuesday. It's the 18th ALREADY!? Where is September going!?

Mitt Romney panic mode: Finger pointing begins weeks before the election.. A sore loser already?

OR


Keep in mind that in 2008, then candidate Obama made disparaging remarks about Americans who ‘cling to God and guns’ .. he didn’t seem to want their votes either. It’s amazing how often candidates running for the highest office in the land really don’t want the votes of people that will put them there..

Also on the political/entertainment front: Networks are being asked and persuaded to help boost Obama’s health care policy by positive portrayals on TV. Don’t believe me? Here is the proof, if you believe NEWSBUSTERS..

Now on to the real news!

A terrifying typhoon hits into South Korea.. rocks are sent flying into the air as the 100mph storm slammed..

More seismic unrest is taking place on the Canary Islands—watch this one..

Nerves are rattled as two Indonesian volanoes wake from a dormant slumber..

With all of these earthquake swarms and volcanoes coming back alive after decades if not centuries of no activity, could we look back and say we should have known? Since strange noises in Kiev were posted online, most of the world has smelled sulfur, seen fish and animal deaths, and heard odd noises coming from the ground. Quite possibilty the new activity across the planet is a byproduct or a result of the groans from the planet. Maybe something, deep down has occurred and now the crust is simply letting out the steam, so to speak, from the inside movements…? Just a thought.. A very niave and uneducated guess, perhaps. But a thought.

There is an increased use of antidepressants in a depressed Japan.. Could it be the result of just hardcore awful news for the past several months? A nuclear reactor gone wrong and a tsunami that took so many? Perhaps people are just trying to escape. Sadly medication will never, ever, help them.. And on that note of nuclear instability: A pink grasshopper has been found near Fukushima..

Is whooping cough linked to pesticide spraying? One website points to what it calls evidence that it is..

Cancer is now the number 1 cause of death for US Latinos..


A UFO photographed over Vancouver in the daylight hours.. A drone/ A plane/ SUPERMAN?.. a UFO for sure, as no one quite knows what the bright lights were off of Dallas Road in Victoria, B.C…

Fear: Arctic Sea ice melt may trigger extreme European winter..

Fear: One scientist says Arctic sea ice may completely vanish in four years..

Fear: Many people are not ready for Doomsday.. food is being stocked.. And when doomsday does not occur, hope the food won’t go bad..

Fear: Bad things happen ever 7 years! Though good things happen daily..


Court orders French magazine hand over all images of Kate Middleton nude..

Author speaks about ghostly encounters at battlefield..

Ghost hunting classes now being offered at tech school..

New election controversy brews after Mitt Romney is secretly recorded disparaging 47% of Americans as people who don’t pay taxes or take responsibility for their lives.. Romeny says he will not get their votes. With comments like this, he may not get anyone’s vote.. Romney is responding, however, the best he can with the circumstances.. He said his words were not ‘elegant’.. Elegant like his life. His wealthy life. Lots of commentators are saying that the Romney campaign is beginning to look a lot like a campaign that Thurston Howell from Gilligan’s Island would run. I say, and have said, no: He is just like Max Schreck from BATMAN RETURNS.. I just hope not as crazy..

So THE BUNNY GAME is fiction?

Tell that to Rodleen Getsic.. The NEW YORK TIMES reports that the address who stars in the direct to video horror torture porn movie actually has branding scars on her back to prove that most of what occurred to her in the movie was done in .. real terms. 

The movie is a simple concept—as most torture porn flicks have been. A truck driver kidnaps her to rape her, torture her, slap her, spit on her.. all of those things that a mentally deranged truck driver would do. 

Oh, and he puts a rabbit-shaped hood on her, giving the movie the name THE BUNNY GAME. 

THE NEW YORK TIMES profiled the movie and quoted the actress Getsic saying “Part of my soul did die in making this film.” 

The TIMES also reports that horror fans are split on this movie. (As they are about this whole newfound torture porn element of scary movies).. 

I myself don’t think I’ll be watching the BUNNY GAME. Though the image of the rabbit mask it itself is chilling, plus the fact it was shot in black and white also has a creepy factor, the movie seemed to be complete garbage. More sickening torture for .. the purpose of? What? To  showcase how someone can scream in pain? To show how someone loses a soul through constant rape? This is what entertainment is? I don’t find myself compelled to view a movie that has such disturbing elements — if the elements were tamed by more of a storyline perhaps the movie would have a societal point. But with the absence of a story besides rape and horrific brandings, I doubt this film has any point at all. Other reviewers, including this one from INSIDE PULSE, seem to agree. PULSE goes on to write:

I understand film as art and I understand showing the unpleasant side of life. But I don’t understand, nor do I want to understand, the desire to make a dark twisted film like this. If anything like what really happened in this film really did happen to Getsic then I’m really sorry for her, but I don’t see why she had to reenact it on film. Some may call The Bunny Game an art film, others will want to call it a snuff film.

But the movie’s existence in itself shows how horror is evolving, or perhaps devolving. Even though this is a low budget movie, THE BUNNY GAME produced physical pain for Getsic. She ‘got into her work’ I suppose. 

From the SAW franchise to HOSTEL .. to remakes of 1970s good horror films added the newfound torture porn element, I am just sick of it all. Rob Zombie is a bit of a genius. But to date I have refused to watch more than three minutes of his HALLOWEEN remakes. I just can’t find myself eager to watch brutality and gore without more than gore for more than that much time.

I liked SAW when it came out .. the first one. That was good. It appeared to me to be a more graphic and gory SILENCE OF THE LAMBS. But then  it phased out its freshness and created just regular old sickening scenes with torture and hopelessness. There is something about horror that can provide hope. The women in horror movies who fight back. 

THE BUNNY GAME appears to be a doing a great disservice to horror in itself. After all, there is a common thought out there that women are just abused without point in horror movies. THE BUNNY GAME seems to do that. It makes the point for detractors who already think horror is a genre not worth watching.

Maybe I am getting old.. maybe being a dad has tempered me too a place where I can only view PG-13 horror and enjoy it.. But call my crazy, there is something wrong with society if it wants to emulate torture.

I have always believed that professional wrestling and horror movies are good working examples of the pop culture and society of the day. Being that I have not watched wrestling in years, and have steered clear of torture porn since I got sick of it mid-2000s, I can only say it appears society continues to turn into a mass of dribbling and morbidly rancid-souled folks. 

Is it unfair for me to review THE BUNNY GAME without even seeing it? Maybe. Judging from descriptions of the depictions, there isn’t much at all to review anyway..

Ok. Life sometimes has a way of punching you in the face. And the most mundane of circumstances can set up a day of panic. Bumps on a baby’s legs from heat rash turn into something much worse in the mind of a 21st century paranoid dad. I think it’s time to brew a hot cup of tea relaxation tea. Avoid the colon cleansing kind. That’s a whole different story.
