How airplanes once were: Prime rib, cocktail lounges, and piano bars. Plus comfortable seating in coach. Amazing how with ‘safety’ and improvements made, all the fun places dive ..no pun intended. Really, though, shouldn’t this be how all air travel should be? Filled with excitement of the friendly skies, cold adult beverages, hot food, and great music? Instead.. we have the current state of the system: Baked in the naked body scanners with touchers touching the most private parts searching for bombs in your bodily exits, tight seating, and not even peanuts anymore. Not even peanuts. Or cocktail lounges and piano bars for that matter..
Harrisburg fined a dead woman for code violations: How did it happen?
With her property stuck in a legal limbo, a woman who died almost two years ago is convicted of a crime.
Everything about this story is sad. Especially the fact a person can die and virtually no one care…

THE EXTINCTION IS HERE
….in box offices. And as some scientists say, in real life too.. but real life doesn’t make as much money as TRANSFORMERS AGE OF EXTINCTION will..
$104 mil + for the weekend? Apparently that is what experts are expecting or at least craving.. big money for HOLLYWOOD baby, let’s let the good times roll. And go extinct.
The heat of the summer is here.. no better time than the present to make oodles of cash off of people on dates and yearning for a cool seat in a heat wave.
But this is amazing: TRANSFORMERS made $81 mil internationally on Friday night for the opening day extravaganza.
Nothing can stop it now.
Not even 22 JUMP STREET. Whatever that is.
Facebook Totally Screwed with a Bunch of People in the Name of Science
If you feel down on Facebook, it could have a lot to do with what your friends are posting
I linked up a story about this a few hours ago.. I still am not shocked by this .. not at all.
Mark Zuckerberg used to sweat when Facebook controversies brewed.. now they just don’t comment and no one cares.
I miss the old days.

A stroll down memory lane. The Battle for Los Angeles. Still a mystery after all these decades.. a weather balloon? Or UFO.. No one knows but yet all say they do.

Are These Horror Films Really "Based On Actual Events"?
Interesting that I read this article today—I watched THE POSSESSION last night for the first time (yes it is old now, but I am slow and behind my times. Thanks to NETFLIX I get caught up years later) ..
The POSSESSION was actually a nicely done horror film. It was filled with some unexpected scares and unpredictable turns of events. But when I saw the tag line that it was based on true events, I didn’t buy it for a second. I frankly never do.
Unless I’m watching a documentary, I realize that it’s still Hollywood. And hooray for them, but they change everything.
That doesn’t mean it is a bad movie. It’s a movie. A movie.
Though reality is often scarier than fiction..

Dad of Toddler Killed in Hot Car Allegedly Researched Child Deaths
Services will be held today for Cooper Harris, the 22-month-old Georgia boy who died after his father left him in a hot car while he went to work.
There is innocence until proof is presented of guilt in court.. but it sounds like there may be some proof that at least presents a very bad picture about the father of this poor boy.
I am disgusted by this story.. I am even more disgusted now that more information is coming out..
BUT..
CNN is reporting this tidbit:
The mother of a Georgia toddler who died in a sweltering SUV emphatically told a crowd at her son’s funeral she loves and stands by her husband, even though he was charged with murder in the child’s death.
AS said before.. innocent until proven guilty. But I have always found it incredibly tough to be able to forgive someone who forgets their toddler (visible in a rearview mirror at 22 months) is in the car..

Facebook may have experimented with controlling your emotions without telling you
'May' means they did.
I ‘may’ not have been angry then.
But I am now.

Matt Drudge speaks: News business is 'psychotic' now
Matt Drudge gave a very rare interview this week..
Among some money quotes:
I will go where the action is, sometimes before it’s cool to do it, that’s why I get in trouble. I make waves, I don’t surf them as I used to say. That’s not that easy in this atmosphere with so many news outlets
And:
All of these polls are always divided. Capitol Hill is divided. How can you say the airwaves or the website should not be divided. We are
Plus:
These are very hot spicy issues here. We’re into an interesting summer here. We’re only about a week into it, I’m sensing some heat. And not just from the temperature outside, I think things are heating up in many respects
Interesting to hear how the trailblazer of internet success is now riding the same highway he paved, noticing all of the bumps and intersections filled with traffic due to his own creativity and success.
A lot of people hate Matt Drudge. But he was the first blog before anyone knew what one was.. he Tweeted before Twitter.. and he was 24/7 while everyone else was just dialing up. He changed the internet at the very beginning and everyone else tried to mock his success..
And it all started with a siren that will live in infamy.

There is some NEW and as always repulsive information on the disgusting Jimmy Savile. We now know this: He claimed to have performed lots of sex acts of dead people.. (On top of his horrendous crimes on the living) ..
You can read more about it if you wish to..
If there is a hell, Jimmy Savile is a door greeter when you get there..
Why cigarettes are more deadly than ever: Charity reveals the underhand tactics tobacco companies now use to make sure we're hooked
I always find it funny to think how people are so accepting of the premise that cigarette companies put in chemicals to get people hooked, but yet dismiss “conspiracy theorists” for asserting (often correctly) that food companies do the same thing.

Prehistoric Greenland Ice Melt Led to 20-Foot Sea Rise
The Greenland ice sheet collapsed 400,000 years ago causing worldwide sea levels to rise between 13 and 20 feet.
It’s happened before. And before that.
It will happen again. And after that.
Humans weren’t here last time it did.. maybe we won’t be the next time, either.
But if we are… we better work on finding some new land to live on for future generations of our families, who now inhabit the coastline of everywhere USA.
