Maybe America is kind after all
Remember a week ago when the author of a book about the kindness of America was shot?
I thought things online would be there 'forever'
I had a website YEARS ago hosted on Angelfire. I also had a Guestbook that, only this week, I found out was gone forever. Seriously.. they deleted it on me. You know, I guess… things change. So this guestbook existed since the year 1998. There were tons of memories in there. I signed up with an email address that is now non existent. So if I had an email that was existent as the main contact, I would have known since April it was going away. Alas! I didn’t.
So there goes that guestbook.. filled with as many memories as a photo album. Friends…long nights of messaging back and forth when the internet was in its infancy.. drunken stupors in text. All that in this guestbook. The world was able to read it.
And now it’s gone.
I know people say if you type something online “it will last forever.”
Tell that to people who had websites on Geocities. Or those who had Tripod guestbooks. Or slambooks (remember those!?) Or ICQ.
I hopefully think that somewhere, in the vast universe, the keys we stroked and letters we typed still exist. But with all these companies folding their ventures and replacing them with nothing, I dare to think that there are some things online that will never exist again. And that’s sad.
What will exist is Facebook. .Maybe Myspace? That’s up to Murdoch. Maybe Tumblr, that’s up to Karp if he makes money.. and Google blogger, which is probably up to the CIA more than anyone else.
Yes.. what you type may not exist tomorrow.
Kind of sad, in a way. Years of Guestbook entries back when the net was young have just been deleted from countless sites…
They better not get rid of Angelfire. Or else if they do, my entire 18 years old to 21 years old period of my life is gone. Forever.
The latest Lilo: Paramedics rushed to her due to exhaustion in her LA hotel.. but she wasn't taken to the hospital
THE MONEY QUOTE
Celebrity news website TMZ meanwhile reported that the 25-year-old had been working for two days almost non-stop, including shooting parts of the movie near the hotel.
Her spokesman Steve Honig told E! News: “Last night she worked from 7:00 pm to 8:00 am. She was exhausted and went back to her room to sleep.
"Producers were apparently concerned and called the fire department and paramedics found her sleeping but determined that she was fine, just extremely exhausted and slightly dehydrated.

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)

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?
In this image: One of the ‘Ghosts’ of Syria, pumped up government steroid machined up madmen who are killing civilians in the country, according to allegations and reports..
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.

Truly cannot believe how fast time is going.
I am an Art Bell fan. There are nights I can’t stand current Noory Coast to Coast AM. Maybe he means well but the night lacks the magic it once did. Being the Bell fan I am, I listen often to U7 radio and FineArtStream.com radio… often they play blasts from the pasts of aliens in the freezer and Area 51 conspiracy… from those old days of 1999. 2000. 2001. 2002. All time gone by..
Today in particular I listened to a show during my morning commute from 1999 about reincarnation. It was typical Art Bell. But 1999!? March of 1999 to be exact. I was 18 and not even done high school yet, that would come in June of that year. So I wondered what exactly I was doing that night.. where I was… how I felt. How the years have gone by.. how remarkable they have been, but how incredibly fast they are, as well.
On the same front, my niece turned 21 this past weekend… Wow. That is big. Considering that I remember, not vaguely but fondly, playing with her when she was born. I was just a kid, full of energy, crawling around. Now with my own son there are some nights my legs cramp up and my back kills me. I am only 31 but often wonder … if this is how 31 feels I dread 40. And 50.
And before I know it I will be 40, 50, and 60. Maybe by then FineGeorgeStream.com will exist..? Maybe by then we will all be programmed robots. Nanotechnology will take over and eliminate human emotion from life. Leaving just a stagnant and lifeless corpse, filled with blood and a brain that remembers nothing? There will be drones littering the sky.. there will be flying cars (maybe not).. However maybe we can all agree: Pay phones will be gone.
Yes, indeed. How fast time flies truly freaks me out. I often wonder where it goes? Stephen King may have an idea. Maybe the Langoliers actually do eat the time that is gone.. Old time a flyin? The same flower … tomorrow.. dyin’…..
Yes, indeed.
Since old time is still a flyin’ perhaps it’s best to resist the dyin’ that eventually will occur. Unless we do reincarnate like the person who was a guest on Art Bell in 1998 believed. Reincarnation over and over again. Living through old time over and over again. Time that flies by regardless of what life we live…

Yes indeed.. This could be the end.

Lots of folks apparently are in to old women showing off some saggy nipples. Really. I had a jump in hits today on CoalSpeaker.com because yesterday I put some news on here about Sagonna and her flashing areola.
So why not post a photo of her bare nipple?
There are two reasons, besides me not wanting to.
- You can find it yourself. Google it, and turn off moderate safe search. You’ll see it. All red and puffy.
- I really could care less.
Sure, I am posting another story about it on here, along with posting a photo of post-nip-slip Madonna on stage. Coyly looking at her audience.. “What did I do? I am just the material girl.” Material Momma Madonna can shock a crowd. But as I pointed out yesterday Lady Gaga suffered a concussion and still performed JUDAS. Though there just seems to be some veiled religious message about being whacked in the head during a song about the man accused of turning in the Christ.. right?
Nonetheless, Madonna slipped her nipple. But the world still rotates. All is right with the world—as right as it could be. Ford is in his flivver. Really, is it that big of a deal?
British media often labels America as prudish. I think maybe they are right. A nipple in itself isn’t overly fascinating once you truly study it. The FCC may fine people for flashing it, ala Janet Jackson, but really what is the big deal about one? Most of us have two. Some even have three. Those with three aren’t sexy. Those with two, as long as they are women, are heralded when they show one. Men who should wear bras that have nipples are lampooned.
So for the medical record. This is a nipple:
And THIS is a nipple on a foot:
Any questions?
Bet you won’t search for Madonna’s nipple now!
All the news unfit to print.. And then some
It’s been a trying day for earth, don’t you think? But what day isn’t really. Here is a collection of events, random, sporadic.. scary.. Entertainment. But it’s reality. So don’t get too happy.

The old days are gone.. a stroll down amnesia lane: The internet that once was
Those glorious days of ugly GIFs and badly designed websites.. those days of 60+ search engines instead of Google dominating.. those days of “Chat lines” that adults said to stay away from (Chat1.com was my favorite).. Yes, indeed, the wild west of the web was at your fingertips, you just had to stick around for a while to let the web load.
Things then weren’t really “live.” But if you searched enough you were able to find some cutting edge sites. Artbell.com, drudgereport.com, and some others were on the fringe. They charted territory for the future. And Geocities and Angelfire in reality could be considered the first blogs. People on them told a personal story.. the 20th century unplugged was on free sites with really long web links. Now it’s blogger and Tumblr and… well, you know the rest.
And why do I bring this up? Well, because first off I can and secondly because it shows how far we have come. From the days when you can be anonymous online to the current world where everyone knows your name, along with A/S/L and what you are currently eating, or drinking, or thinking.
The mid 90s in my opinion was the greatest time for the web. It was exciting and fresh.. it was amazing and new. And now it’s stale and everyone, governments and corporations combined, just want to control it.
Remember when it was fun to dial up and be connected? And wen you met someone in a chat room you did not trust, you just quick reached around and unplugged the phone line from the wall. Those were the days. Safety first, submission of personal data second. How things have changed..
I remember a computer was my Christmas gift in the later 90s.. I remember I had no clue what I was doing. I just hooked up and, well, suddenly the world was at my fingertips. I even remember when I figured out how to design a website (And if you know anything about me you know that HorroReport.com is my other site and it has maintained the same design since 2001, for better or worse.)
And now here we are.. the net is everywhere, you are connected no matter where you go. I think I liked the dial up disconnect. The ability to stop the net for a while and just hang up on the worldwide web of superinformation on a superhighway.
Those days are gone. Here are the days of Facebook.. constantly being connected.. and in a way constantly being disconnected. People went from visiting online to living online. Tumbling through things to Tumblering through things. From posting photos occasionally to lifestreaming, livevideo, and live everything.
The wild days of the net are gone. The predictable days of the net are here.
Bring back the 90s, when everything was fresh and new.
But it can’t be that way.
No matter how many moving GIFs you put on your site..
Tonight in the world of music: Concussions and nipples
Lady Gaga suffers concussion during JUDAS in New Zealand.. Dancer hit her in the head with a pole .. And even more news from the strange world of female artists: Lady Gaga may have been hit during a concert but Madonna hit her audience with a shocking little red blotch: She flashed her nipple in Istanbul.. So Lady Gaga hit in New Zealand.. Madonna’s bare breast in Istanbul. More proof that nothing exciting in the world of music happens in the United States anymore..
Some weird nuke stuff, don't you think?
