You may still laugh at this.. but think about it before judging..
I love puns.. People who write them are pretty witty.
I always wanted to come up with a great pun.. something that could catch on.. I’ve tried.. And finally, I think I came up with one. The problem is, the news event didn’t quite happen yet. But it could.
I was reading some reviews and predictions for the GREAT GATSBY remake.. predictions that it will flop at box offices.. (MORE HERE ON THAT)
So I would like to officially create a pre-pun for the eventual bad box office numbers that GATSBY with garner: THE GREAT COLLAPSY. Do you like it? Is it ‘pun worthy’? Will Drudge steal it? Maybe the DAILY MAIL?
I hope. And if they do, remember the COAL SPEAKER, where the ‘collapsy’ all began….

I always mock the Beeb, but this is pretty scary video. Even scarier for the grand piano.
Jersey Gov Big Crispie is so cool that he will squash his opponents like a spider in front of fourth graders.
This is just a weird video for so many reasons.. It reminds me of a scene from BATMAN RETURNS when the Penguin gets introduced to his fans for the first time by Max Schreck.
We have to bury this guy. Whatever it is, whoever he is, in this country, we bury people. I don’t care who it is. That’s what I do
Peter Stefan from the Graham Putnam & Mahoney Funeral Parlors in Massachusetts. Tamerlan Tsarnaev has not been buried yet, and his uncle has arrived in the United States in order to assist in attempting to find a burial plot.
I guess it is time to end any further speculation that I will return to the air anytime soon. I have given (2) very solid offers a lot of thought and have turned them down. My reasons are many, though I am profoundly sad at the current state of the show, both offers would have been direct competition with Coast and anger is the wrong reason to proceed. Also I really do not want to destroy what I built despite it’s current state. Asia will be in first grade in the Fall and getting up very early, I would be up late and sleeping late, I would not see much of her or Airyn. Life is short and I want to spend what I have left with my Family. I hope my friends understand…
In this world (and in the Catholic Church) that is quite the monumental task..
What do the Syrians have against the Beeb? Maybe the same thing everyone else does..
I would LOVE to know everyone’s thoughts on this video.. truly love to hear. Despite all of the mocking that people did of the “Disclosure” hearings this week (some of it VERY, VERY warranted), this interesting video sort of makes some news..
The description from YouTube:
Video testimony by an anonymous alleged former CIA official was shown at the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure at the National Press Club in Washington, DC on Friday, May 3.
The video is worth the 18 minutes of your time.. And if it’s all true, it’s the most important story of our generation…if not ever for humankind.
Your thoughts, world?
I find it disturbing too.
Unlike them, however, I also find it equally unsettling to know they have no problem with aspartame and high fructose corn syrup..
Good point, and quite sad that this is true.. GeoCities was the original bloggers’ paradise. It’s gone now, long gone.. Proving that what you write online WILL IN FACT one day never exist..
Great videos.. It makes it easy to understand.. But do we really REALLY understand anything about anything anyway?!
Family in bed early.. I got the TV to myself …
Soooo…
FOXNews had an hour-long special tonight on the Kermit Gosnell abortion trial..
CNN tonight has an hour-long special on the Jodi Arias trial
MSNBC is doing it’s typical weekend programming with their lockdown doc..
With all that being said I decided to turn on the Food network to watch Mystery Diners, I need to sleep in some peace tonight.
Reuters:
Police responded to at least 11 reports of burglaries and five separate ammonia leaks at West Fertilizer Co over the past 12 years, according to 911 dispatch logs and criminal offense reports Reuters obtained from the McLennan County Sheriff’s office in Waco, Texas, through an Open Records Request.

Once again I only wonder, as we opted to try Tsarnaev in criminal court, if his will have implications for his case if a good defense attorney makes it an issue..
The Dow made history today, hitting 15,000 after a strong jobs report
For every rise there’s a fall. Lets hope the economy is rising finally and that happy days are indeed here again.. Until the next economic autumn sets in.
However reality cannot escape me.. I don’t see the ‘happy days’ for the 99% yet.
The description sounds both horrific and magical. Nature is amazing.
I believe this is more history that won’t be taught in schools…
Wooden teeth must have been strong…
But God was with this little colony .. Right?
A new CNN/Time/ORC International Poll indicates four in 10 Americans say they are willing to give up some civil liberties to fight terrorism, and suggests worries about terrorism have edged up after the Boston Marathon bombings.
A CNN news alert that was just sent to me from the network..
In my opinion these numbers are somewhat troubling, as the threat of terrorism may be there the chances of you actually being affected by it are quite slim..
The thought of giving up civil liberties and basic freedoms in America just to combat something that will never completely be prevented is flawed logic.
This is always a battle, the battle between freedom and security, civil liberties and safety.. But does it have to be a battle?
You have to admit that law-enforcement agencies did their collective job and apprehended not only the terrorists days after the Boston Marathon but three more today involved with a conspiracy to lie and hide information.. They did that without the 4 in 10 giving up more of their civil liberties, right?
Although we have compromised quite a few liberties over the past decade, with the patriot act and wiretapping and all the rest, the question really remains should we give up any more than we already have, and if we did would it matter a hill of beans are not in the fight against future terrorist acts in this nation
The police response in Boston was massive in the days following the bombing, and the lockdown in Watertown was quite chilling, with all those military vehicles roaming the streets and police freely entering homes with guns drawn on innocent families..
We should support our law enforcement, and the law-enforcement should be free to conduct investigations and their jobs.. But we should also hold them at bay if they step over the line that has been drawn in this country for hundreds of years..
For all of the flaws in this nation we didn’t get where we are by giving up our basic freedoms, and we certainly will make no positive steps in making a deal to give up more..
Before we travel down this road, and before the foreign can become six and 10 or 10 in 10, we should have a very deep and thoughtful national discussion about this topic.. We should be wary of anyone who says they giving up our liberties would equal safety.. That is a snake oil recipe for disaster sold by the devil himself..
Let’s be careful folks, it is a dangerous world, but a future society with no freedoms could be much more dangerous than society that cherishes freedoms..
This is pretty big news from Boston today, as three more suspects have been arrested involved with the Boston Marathon massacre..
So I guess you can score one for the conspiracy theorists out there, as these three were charged with conspiracy.. Just not the conspiracy that the conspiracy theorists proclaimed was behind the bombing

This is a video of the crash at Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan.. The crash killed seven.. the video is chilling. And if you ever saw the film THE KNOWING, this scene is very similar to one that takes place in that film..
BBC report: AIRLINER HAD ‘NARROW MISS WITH UFO’ *This is a mainstream news report.. this is an amazing article..
The video shows a man on the ground and at least four others punching and kicking him repeatedly. One woman even hits him with a hammer-like object.
So this is where we are now, as people? This is it?

MANTOLOKING, N.J. (AP) — The 9-year-old girl who got New Jersey’s tough-guy governor to shed a tear as he comforted her after her home was destroyed is bummed because she now lives far from her best friend and has nowhere to hang her One Direction posters.
This is a must read.. we stopped attention too soon (like we do every time a disaster hits this planet..)
Here is a monstrous sinkhole in Latvia, apparently swallowing everything in its path. The video was uploaded to YouTube on April 21.. I’d love to know if there is any update on what happened since this video was released..
BOSTON (AP) — The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings acknowledged to the FBI his role in the attacks but did so before he was advised of his constitutional right to keep quiet and seek a lawyer, U.S. officials said Wednesday.
What a mess…
Developing now..
CNN reporting:
(CNN) - A fire broke out Wednesday night on Alabama’s Mobile River after two barges loaded with natural gas exploded not far from where a once listless Carnival cruise ship was docked, authorities said.
The Mobile Fire-Rescue Department, on its official Twitter feed, reported that it had “units on the scene on east side of Mobile River where a fuel barge has exploded and is on fire.” Minutes later, the fire department issued an update stating that two barges had exploded.
Three people who were burned were transported to a local hospital, fire department spokesman Steve Huffman told CNN. He did not describe the severity of their injuries. All people are believed to have been accounted for, Huffman added.
But!!
The problem is that he actually admitted this before his Miranda rights were read to him, and now that he is being tried in regular court this could very well pose a legal conundrum, don’t ya think?
The earth brings perversion to the red planet.. And now the penis on Mars!? The Rover draws a picture..
So much for the Face on Mars! Now we have genitalia ..
We all need to take a deep breath and ask if this was the correct response in Boston…

The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings suffered an injury to his throat and may not be able to talk, a federal official told CNN on Saturday..

Data show a sizable increase in the amount of meat contaminated with antibiotic-resistant forms of bacteria, like salmonella, E. coli and campylobacter.
That’s right. Bacteria.. resistant to anything.
Eat up.

So is the homeland, says no one’s favorite senator Lindsay Graham. He also wants more surveillance and drones to track citizens.
Remember he also said that the Boston bombing suspect should not be read Miranda.. And the suspect was not.
(CNN) - Perhaps the only man in the world who can explain why the Boston Marathon bombings took place is sedated with a tube down his throat, unable to speak.
Suspect Dzhokar Tsarnaev was in serious but stable condition at a Boston hospital and cannot talk, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick told reporters.
John B. Wells, who should now be the main host on Coast since Art Bell won’t be coming back, had an interested subject matter last night, just in time for 420: The Dope Show. But the concept was interesting, and something no doubt many would believe in. That marijuana could be a great American money maker, and right now the only ones who profit from it being illegal are those in the illegal trade of it. Also mentioned, apparently, was the prison industry and how many juvenile offenders are locked away for way too long because of possession of the substance..
But the best may be the music Wells chose for the show:
PAPER PLANES by MIA, WHITE RABBIT by Jefferson Airplane, COCAINE by JJ Cale, and the DOPE SHOW by Marilyn Manson.
There will be no doubt that I will be downloading and keeping this one for future enjoyment.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will not hear his Miranda rights before the FBI questions him Friday night. He will have to remember on his own that he has a right to a lawyer, and that anything he says can be used against him in court, because the government wont tell him.
Interesting article..
We really need to contemplate this one, America.. we really do.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in serious condition as civil liberties groups express concerns over plan to question him without reading him his rights
The GUARDIAN reports:
US officials said an elite interrogation team would question theMassachusetts college student without reading him his Miranda rights, something that is allowed on a limited basis when the public may be in immediate danger, such as instances in which it is feared bombs are planted and ready to be detonated.
The ACLU executive director, Anthony Romero, said the legal exception applied only when there was a continued threat to public safety and was “not an open-ended exception” to the Miranda rule, which guarantees the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney.
The federal public defender’s office in Massachusetts said it had agreed to represent Tsarnaev once he is charged. Miriam Conrad, public defender for Massachusetts, said he should have a lawyer appointed as soon as possible because there were “serious issues regarding possible interrogation”.
As I said the other night.. if we are all ok with this, does it say anything about us as a nation? I think yes.
It’s been a surreal week. Beware Ares. We should have..
Sometimes this song is the soundtrack to our current events. We meander through the fields and greens of this planet… fearing our surroundings and trembling at the present. But when we lay down at night, we do in fact to seem just be glad to be here..
Tonight is one of those nights to fire up an old radio and sit under the stars.
Here in my hometown, though, in the Coal Region of Pennsylvania, the temperatures have taken a turn for the winter. It’s going to go well below freezing tonight..but it’s still good to be here.
From the bars that trap your mind to the bars that zap them, be glad to be here.
So if you’re clubbing, pubbing, or stumbling this Saturday night, raise a glass or even a 4-20ed rolled up something and celebrate the past, the present, and the future.
No matter how much it makes you tremble..
THE DAY AFTER
Boston bombing: The crucial turning point was the release of suspects’ photos..
Cops say that suspects threw a pressure cooker bomb at them..
Tamerlan Tsarnaev lost friend to grisly murder..
Dzhokhar Tweeted while running..?
Life was normal.. he slept in dorm and worked out at the gym..?
During the statewide manhunt, Tsarnaev partied..
Actually I live beneath the giant lump of coal..
But I seriously do believe that the media has not paid nearly as much attention to this as I thought they would have, and you are right it is women’s groups that actually came out against Dr. Kermit way back..
But I am still surprised that for 20 to 30 years everybody was completely fine with this no matter how many people complained to various groups and government agencies..
Read this one at your own risk.
It makes sense that we paid attention to events in Boston this week.
But it continues to NOT MAKE SENSE as to why we aren’t paying any attention to the Kermit Gosnell murder (not abortion) trial..
Here is the story on his Tweets… While he was ‘on the run’..
Hey everyone, looks like a great cause.. Contact Supermanzboy on his site directly
It’s becoming a little tiring If you ask me. So many non experts thinking they are experts..
To a degree it is normal to get to understand his mind, but equally so many who are analyzing it are not psychologists ..
In the short term, i think we actually learn more from talking to classmates and friends. And we will hear from them.
But it shows that twitter could be an accurate technological window to the soul, in a 21st century sense.
So..
Explain that state wide lockdown over a bleeding 19-year-old pothead terrorist who was frantically running.
Or
Does that no fear policy start today?
Whenever a big news want occurs, my Facebook page seems to immediately get overrun by strange and silly cartoons, photos, and memes. Often they express patriotism in a tacky way, often are littered with spelling mistakes, and rarely are anything I ‘Like.’
But where do they come from? Who makes them within seconds of news events? Is there a Silly Meme Factory Co. out there somewhere?
I used to think, when big protests occurred in the Middle East, that it was amazing how many giant signs existed, like huge ass signs with pictures of American leaders or world figures. I thought at those times that there was a giant sign factory.
Maybe the giant sign company went technological and branches into the silly Facebook meme industry.
So I ask, in my quest to find the source of these annoyingly bad pictures, did YOU ever make a meme? Do YOU claim any responsibility in causing the prolific industry to boom?
NBC News: A powerful earthquake shook China’s Sichuan region on Saturday, leaving at least 44 dead and hundreds injured, officials said.
The 6.6-magnitude earthquake struck at approximately 8 a.m. and aftershocks have continued to rattle the region.

This is just another in a weird series if very strong earthquakes to hit his planet in the last few days .. The quake in Iran a few days ago caused a lot mod misery .. Japan has been seeing an increase in seismic activity.. And now this big China shake..
It was a unbelievable day of news.. it was beyond wild.. beyond odd and strange.. beyond fortean.
Entire towns were locked down. Almost an entire state stayed indoors.
But I end with this until I post again tomorrow: Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was not read his Miranda Rights. There was a public safety exception invoked.
This will now be a debated point of contention.. we will hear a lot about it. Maybe.
Or maybe not.
Maybe we won’t care..
But if we don’t care, what does that say?
ABC news reports:
A senior Justice Department official told ABC News that federal law enforcement officials are invoking the public safety exception to the Miranda rights, so that Tsarnaev will be questioned immediately without having Miranda rights issued to him.
The federal government’s high value detainee interrogation group will be responsible for questioning him.
The Miranda exemption exists to protect the public safety from another attack, according to the official.
May everyone have a safe evening, what’s left of it.
An ordeal is over.
But what ordeal is next..?
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had passed an apparently normal day at the school Wednesday, according to a UMass official, working out at the gym, then sleeping in his single-unit room at the Pine Dale Hall dorm that night, while law enforcement officials were frantically scanning photos and video trying to identify him and his brother.
Strange behavior for a criminal, don’t you think?
