Pokemon Go AWAY!!!

So, this Pokemon Go sensation, phenomenon is the first I've seen of it's kind, unless you compare it some sort of giant Easter egg hunt that happens every night now. I'm all for getting out of the house, but I've been out of the house now for years, literally! Now, I have to worry about running into one of these people, again, literally. 

I overheard one guy last night saying, "Well, it gets you out of the house, and the best part is you make new friends!" I can assure you, I AM NOT one of your new friends. The next time you run into me, or cross my path and make me wait for you to find your imaginary critters, remember we ARE NOT friends.

One particular group was sitting on some steps waiting for the next virtual projection. I was soaking wet from the day and the fact that the sprinklers had just turned on soaking me even further. Needless to say, I wasn't in a very good mood after that rude awakening. 

So, as I walked passed this particular group of zombies, I asked, "What are you guys doing? I mean for real, what are you doing?" One of them said, "Go on Man!" 

I said, "Go On? Go On? How 'bout Pokemon Go On, as in GO AWAY! Why don't you join the choir, or something. Heck, just sing a song instead, or start a band if you want to get out more and make new friends." It was at that moment one guy started singing, "Sing a Song" by Earth, Wind, and Fire. I began to laugh, and pointed to him and said to the group, "See... there's a guy that understands what I'm saying!" His buddy next
to him gave him knucks, and I'm sharing this with you, KNUCKLEADS!!!

Films, Motion Pictures & MOVIES!

Immediately, by my use of the term "movies", you know I am not a Film Snob.  I also did not grow up in the era before "movies".  Even as I write this, Blogger is questioning my use of the term by underlining it with a red squiggly line, but that's what I call them, movies!  So, sue me if you don't like it. People used to only see celebrities in still shots printed in magazines before the age of television.  Then, they would go see them at the "movie theater", after hearing about it on the radio.  Nobody ever called them Film Theatres, did they?  The word "film" is really a description of the medium by which we are enabled to view "movies" rather than it being a description of the experience of watching still pictures transformed into motion.  So, I'm sticking with "movies", but I am not opposed to calling them motion pictures.  For the "purists" out there that insist on using the word "film&qu

Wrong About Irene

Well, as Irene continues its way up the eastern seaboard, Georgia has been spared from any devastation although it was very humid today; that’s not devastating.  That’s par for the course in Georgia.  At least, that has been par for the course most of the time I have lived in this beautiful state.  Yet, the previous ten years have been moderate in terms of the humidity factor.  So, this recent humidic return in the last couple of years has restored and reminded us of the fact that this beautiful state, as lush and green as it is, is right next door to Florida, the arm pit of the South.  And Irene brought a piece of Florida with her and left in Georgia.  A soggy statement that can only stimulate thanksgiving. My first year of college, I was seeing this girl who had to write a paper on the topic of “The Optimism of Pessimism”.  I suppose, I am writing the same paper write now, only I won’t receive a grade. She said to me, ‘I received a topic for a paper today and I’m

Stacey Dash On "Why I Say What I Say"

Why I Say What I Say, Even Though I Drive Whoopi, BET, and Most Other Black People Crazy ... After reading the article above, here are my thoughts... Stacey Dash drives me crazy, and I'm not even BLACK!  She having grown up in the South Bronx, having voted for Obama in 2008, and now a right wing representative of the most extreme kind, I agree with her much of the time, but she sticks to the script when she knows it is WRONG.  I'm not really disagreeing with this current post, except in terms of the way Republicans always attack social programs when working on the budget before they attack our inflated military budget.  I'm all for a strong defense.  I'm not a pacifist in that way, but we don't spend the money on our weapons program for the people of this country as much as we spend it for the people making money off it.  Sure, we need reforms in the welfare system, but not cuts, at least not yet. I can't argue with anything Stacey Dash has said in this art
