“Those plans include forcing single women to abort their babies or put them up for adoption; implanting sterilizing capsules in people when they reach puberty; and spiking water reserves and staple foods with a chemical that would make people sterile.”

Uncle Ted Should Run For President … Listen to these truths…

google.com, pub-2427795083793513, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0

Excerpt…

Still, Nugent holds out hope for the country. “I believe that we the people will eventually see the criminality of the Obama administration and eventually stop them one way or another, so I have eternal faith in my fellow man,” he says. “I can’t believe this experiment in self-government is over. I can’t believe the documents our founding fathers clearly articulated and wrote are going to be abandoned for tyranny and slavery, and that’s really what Obama represents. He represents that ‘you people are so stupid and inept, I’ll have to cover you.’ I just don’t believe that’s true.”

Here’s the rest of thestory…

Remembering Your First Time (Concert That Is)

google.com, pub-2427795083793513, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0

chRemember your first show? Of course you do, who doesn’t… So add your story to the comments or send it to us and we’ll put it up…

winter of my 7th grade year, my mom drove me to evansville to see kiss and ted
nugent. i was just getting into music, and kiss was like gods to me!! i think i shit
myself, when the drums of love gun thundered out of the p.a. . it was like nothing
i’d ever seen. being that young and seeing all these hot chicks go crazy,is the
reason im in a band today. so thank you, kiss and all the hot ladies for making me
the crazy bastard i am today…….
Mike, LEFT WITH SCARS..

Motley crue with White Snake September 19th 1987 at Roberts stadium .was it life changing? f**ck yeah ..I left addicted to live shows .I couldn’t believe seeing White Snake and motley crue in person I remember still of the night and Adrian Vandenberg’s polka dotted Fernandez guitar .and Tommy Lee’s spinning drum kit was f**king out of this world *sigh* them was the daze

Keith Alvey

1989 – Young MC, I won the tickets from being the 10th caller on 96 STO.  I just heard the tail end of the “Be the 10th Caller and Win!  I thought I was calling in to win tickets for a Monster Truck show…

Court

I was 13 yrs old 1977-78 and I went to see Kiss and the Rockets. I don’t
know who the Rockets became later on but I hear they did well on their
own. Kiss was amazing in their Heyday. I think it was the Destroyer tour
but I could be wrong. I could feel the energy in the room as well as smell
it. The lights and Fire and Blood and the guy that was manning the floor
spot at the corner of the stage leaned forward to change gels. We started
out on the floor but when your 13 years old at a concert and the bigger
guys around you start to look at you like you’re going to be lunch you
figure out that there must be somewhere better to see the show from. I was
sitting in a spot where that particular Spotlight engineer was blocking my
view of Peter Criss. Right after I leaned over to a buddy of mine and
stated that I wish that guy would move, he did. The spotlight tower went
down. For a split second I thought it was part of the show but it sounded
like a bomb when the guy’s tower hit the floor. Just inches away from Ace
Frehley. Peter Criss’ wife at the time was injured and the spotlight tech
nearly lost his life.

I will never forget that show.

Dave
Editor’s note:) There must of been alot of us there on January 23, 1978, it was my first show too…anyone want an audio copy of that show hit Al up, he has a copy of it …(seriously)

This is so cool… Woodstock Couple Still Together

alg_woodstock_couple

Just saw this the other day. Thought I would share it with you…

It’s an enduring image of love, care and protection that earned iconic status through its placement on the cover of the original “Woodstock” album in 1970, as well as on the movie poster.

Oz Fox from Stryper “Jumped the Shark?”

google.com, pub-2427795083793513, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0

In case you don’t know what “Jump the Shark” means. It’s a term used when a TV show has finally went off course and lost it’s appeal and as Wikipedia says”  the plot veers off into absurd story lines or out-of-the-ordinary characterizations.”  Well it also implies to people too.

Oz Fox is a nice guy. I have met him a couple of times over the years. He doesn’t know me from Adam  though just to clear that up. Anyway, he is getting married. Nothing wrong with that. He was married for about 20 years before and he wife left him for what ever reasons. It happens everyday. So fast forward today. Oz has found love again and is getting married this Friday and its to be “web cast” for everyone to see. I guess that works. We have the technology to do that so what the heck.

But who is he marrying? She’s a hot looking 41 year old former prostitute now a christian with a ministry called “Hookers for Jesus”. She was a high class call girl for 11 years and her clients where athletes and celebrities. I am happy for them both and I know the Lord forgives and forgets. So yes, she is forgiven and deserves to be happy. I have always heard that former prostitutes make the best wives but call me shallow, but it would be hard to call someone my wife who has probably literally sleep with hundreds if not thousands of other guys in the 11 years of her work. The implications would be overwhelming. How can some “one” stand up and compete  against that? And what the arguments that will surely come. There has to be an unbelievable amount “baggage” there.

Hear me out. I am happy she is out of the business and she has found happiness. But just from a guy’s point of view. It would be rough to have to compete mentally and physically with all those ghosts from her past.

So enclosing. Did he make the right decision? Or did he “jump the Shark” with this one. Opinions?

Good luck to you both…

STAR TREK 2009

google.com, pub-2427795083793513, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0

star-trekFirst up. I am a huge STAR TREK  TREKKIE….OK? So let’s get that out of the way. I have followed the evolving series since I found it in reruns as a kid way back in the 70’s. Long before some of the props that are in existence now due to STAR TREK were even invented. Need an example? The hand held communicator. Today it’s a cell phone and comes complete with a flip top. So there …

This morning I received my copy of STAR TREK;) I would recommend seeing in the theater first but since I couldn’t get my wife to go … 🙁 I went for second best.

Well, I stuck it in the DVD player, turned the sound up loud like it’s supposed to be and got ready !! I wasn’t disappointed. From the word go, it rocked!!! Lot’s of action, some humor and the characters are easily identifiable too. I was hooked from start to finish. Even with the role of the original Mr. Spock also written in (Leonard Nemoy for you without an imagination) was awesome!! It wasn’t a “cameo”. His role was important to the script. The movie shows how fate, or is it destiny, together one by one.

As you know by now, I won’t give away any of the plot to any movie review so if thats what you are looking for, I am sorry. This movie is well worth seeing on the big screen and then buying it on DVD when it comes out!!!

I give it 10 Spock “Live long and Prosper’s” out of 10!!!!!

The Interview of a Lifetime Part III

google.com, pub-2427795083793513, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0

Mr. Ed’s office most of the time looks like a bomb went off in it but with a distinct smell of a certain flavored potato chip odor. And his desk is covered in magazines and newspapers from all over the world. He even reads the Wall Street Journal from time to time and I’m willing to bet right now he doesn’t even have a clue to what any of that means…He’s just a simple old balding man trying to stay afloat in this dog eat dog profession. His office walls are covered with old photos and newspaper clippings from around the world. Some are really old too, I mean really old..…One of clippings is the actual Newspaper account of how journalist Ernie Pyle died while covering the battles back during World War II…That’s just a little bit before his time and it must have been something that belonged to his Father who, by the way, also was an Editor.… Mr. Ed does have one prized procession on his desk. Well, ok, two. A jar of Jelly beans and an autographed photo of Perry White!! Or well, the actor that played Perry White that is, John Hamilton. But it’s signed ““Great Caesar’s ghost!” ..Perry. …….Seems like I remember Mr. Ed saying his wife got it for him a long time ago. And about Mr. Ed’s wife, that’s a whole ‘nother story I may or may not tell you later…But let me say this much … She is sweet, and totally devoted to her husband, kinda a “Father Knows Best” type of Lady… A real classy act…No kidding!!! She’s nothing like the women in today’s world… If she was 30 years younger and single,…Well I would ………hmmmm…Well, I probably would be chasing after her…Hey, Get your minds out of the gutter…I don’t write smut…(though I hear it pays well…..)

Back to Mr. Ed…..Here I am, standing in his office again, and… as usual, desk clutter up to the ceiling….empty bags of chips in the trash… You know, going back over it again I know, but tater chips do have that certain smell to them…Its not bad though compared to how it used to smell like in here.…Today’s flavor is sort of Bar “b” que’y..…..You see, Mr. Ed, not only wanted to be like Perry White, the Editor of the Daily Planet but he also took up cigar smoking in his younger years just like ole Perry. At one time you would have never caught him without one…He was always chewing on it…All along while its glowing fire turned everything in his office to that dirty yellow color from the smoke..…And while I’m here, you might as well hear my opinion of smoking. He too,(That’s Mr. Ed if you are getting lost) was like a lot of young impressible foolish people that took up that awful habit.…Hey I did it too at one time before you go sand bagging me..…I thought it was cool too along with everyone else of my “generation” There’s those “quote unquote” things again. (I seem to use them a lot I know, journalist expressions) …..I used to go to the high school football games and hang out with the chicks…It was nothing for me to be putting on “My game face” with a long Kool menthol hanging out the side of my mouth. I was the tough guy you see… The hero…Bogart….Bogie…or Clint Eastwood and maybe even Burt Reynolds in The Smokey and the Bandit all rolled up into one.….I thought cigarettes made the person…But fortunately for me I saw though their “coolness” and realized it was just another stupid habit…So I quit smoking way before the cigarettes dug their claws into my very being and “Set the Hook”…Mr. Ed was one of the countless unfortunate ones though that didn’t see through the whole smoking hype. Hard headed is what I call them…He kept missing the tall tale warning signs and also ignored the government warning signs printed on the packages. Come on people, the warning labels aren’t there to take up space…..Mr. Ed needed a heart attack and a couple of bypasses to convince him that living and breathing was a lot better than smoking and dying….Too bad a lot of people don’t get that second chance…They enjoy the artificially flavored cancerous smoke as it slowly and methodically chokes the very life out of them..

Ok, so I’m off my cigarette soapbox…hopefully, I didn’t lose anyone…I will however say that if you smoke,. you smoke…You shouldn’t be forced to go outside and smoke just because it supposed to be a smoke free world we live in now…Smokers have Rights too…I wonder how many have actually died from having to smoke outside in the winter and catching their death of cold? I mean they all ready can’t breathe from all that smoking and then the government runs them outside to have a “smoke” to catch pneumonia. Well, I had to get one more dig in there about smoking…and well, according to Old man Buzby, never trust the Government …Even if you have defended it…

Chapter two


Mr. Ed, or the little fat guy he is sometimes referred to by me behind his back, does what most Editors do…He assigns us jobs, or interviews as it is known in the quote unquote “business”. He had seen the story on the local television station about Wilbur the “Counting Cars” old man and insisted that I go and see him and get a story from him too..He was a nice old man. Lived all his life here in our little town. Buried his second wife and never wanted to get married again..I guess he figured them out too…Not that I’m bitter toward women per say..Now don’t get me wrong..I could enjoy their company too. Well, until the newness wore off and then I would grow tired of them real quick..Its like they wear a nice mask until they think they have their hooks in ya and then they pull the mask off to show their true colors….Claws and drama…Or so it has been my experience.. But in a way I guess guys do the same thing too and are no better…

Anyway, back to the little fat guy…He sent me to see Wilbur and he also sent me to Mr. Buzby, the typewriter/vcr repair man..I have interviewed the elite of this little town all the way down to the garage man. Whom by the way, if he didn’t do his job we would be run over by mounds of filthy garbage and rats the size of small dogs in just a matter of a few weeks time. At least that is what he told me….Talk about digressing into the old days. I don’t think we are expecting any plagues thanks to him….

Well, enough about Mr. Ed, or Mr. Buzby or even Mr. Wilbur..How bout me? Who am I? To this date I have never been interviewed. Well, except for when I applied for this job.. I have always done the interviewing…Why isn’t anyone interested in me? I think I would make a great story. A good read….a tragedy even maybe? Or maybe how bout a success story? My only claim to fame is a short story I got published while I was still wet behind my ears. I guess it’s my legacy…My pillar…Not much of pillar though, I can’t stand on it but it was one of the few things I got to keep in the divorce….My ex-wife would have taken that too if she could have…feel the love??

Who am I you may ask? And as your loyal “wordsmith,” I can answer that…..

I am Charles, a noble name but not of noble blood…Far from it…I hailed not from the shores of England and their fine Royal linage, but from a squatter..Squatter??? You may act surprised if need be…..You see, my folks grew up on the banks of the mighty Ohio river…They were so poor that they couldn’t afford homes so they built shanties on the river bank. There was small community of poor people living for free on the river. Just like in the song “Proud Mary”…The people in the city called it “fish town”….It was meant as an insult and not as a compliment…But the people of “fish town” took it all in stride…They didn’t let it bother them so I guess they took the high road.. To this day I’ll meet people that talk bad about where I came from and I’ll give them enough strong rope to hang themselves before I proudly say…”I lived in fish town”…Even Though I have no recollection of it….

So the story goes that my dad and mom met young, married young, had kids young and then separated, all while they were, still young..I recollect all this happened within the span of a couple of years or so. Seems my dad had an eye for chasing skirts and well, my mom was against that. Especially considering they were married at the time. I also have a half brother or two running around here somewhere too…Anyway, I was born and…..”What’s that Mr. Ed”? Sorry the intercom just went off…. He could of just IM’d me but he chooses to use the outdated intercom system that came with the building, circa 1982 maybe??.. “You have another assignment for me? I’ll be right there Boss”..

The Interview of a Lifetime

Written by: Chuck gee

Chapter 1

Damn, it’s another boring hot day at the office. There are only three of us that work here. The other two writers are just that. “Writers”. I am both a journalist and a writer. Which, in pay means absolutely nothing, but it’s an extra title bar under my name in the magazine….The other two writers that I refer to are “Cling and Clang”. I got those names from an old Saturday morning cartoon show I used to watch as a kid. The show “H R Puff N Stuff” had on it a somewhat evil witch and her two assistants. But her two assistants were always bumbling and messing everything up. Like these two clowns that work here. They are fresh out of college and appear for all practical points and preferences ready for that big ole rat race called “Life”. Do I sound a little cenacle here? I guess I do but let’ em get a few years in them and a couple of mortgage payments and maybe a divorce or two and then let’s see if they still bounce in here everyday with their “bells on”. I have done it all, seen it all and of course, been thru it all, mortgages and divorces. All I need now is a hot cup of Joe in the morning and one in the evening when I go home to… “ME”, “me” has a nice ring to it you think?…The silence is gladly welcome and appreciated..Its official and I don’t need any fanfare, any parades or major announcements… I have stepped out of the race, off the fast train, next stop conductor…to slow ‘ville …No more of that fast life for me. I’m not beaten down or anything like that. HELL NO!… Just not interested in the “white picket fence and fine trimmed yard anymore”. Besides that, it’s all a fantasy anyway. Make believe and made up by Hollywood I guess? … And I especially don’t miss a nagging old lady waiting to not greet me at the door and asking how my day was but to have her tell me how lousy her day was. How lousy can it be? Just sitting at home watching soap operas? How hard could that of been? I finally left her and let her keep the white picket fence and the fine trimmed yard. She was soo proud of herself that I let her have the payments that went with everything too. Good Riddance…… .

And Sitting here at my desk I am surround by the countless pinging of typewriter noises. All day long I hear Tap.Tap.Tap, DING!!DING!!BRRRRWW!!! goes the margin bell and then the roller travels back to the left side of the paper…Well, it used to, the roller traveling back to the left side of the paper again that is..Let me explain… You see, I work for a small monthly editorial magazine called E-Interview Monthly” We run stories on people that are mainly “showcased” on the local evening news. We’ve interviewed everyone from the guy that picks up the weekly trash to the old man named Wilbur that’s 85 and sits outside of his apartment everyday and counts cars that go by…Well, he only counts the ones made before 1985 for some strange reason. Maybe it has something to do with his age. But anyway, you can bet if the weather is nice outside he’ll be sitting in an old white rusted metal patio chair under that tall old shade tree in the yard with his pad and pencil checking away…. “74 chrysler..Check!..”84 Buick..check!..and so and so on.. ….


Now back to the endless sound of typewriter noises…Hell, we don’t even have typewriters. This place never did. No one uses them anymore, haven’t for years, if not in freak’n decades. They have long since gone the way of the dinosaur or the home cooked meal. Speaking of home cooked meals, don’t even get me started on that. My ex old lady thought a home cooked meal consisted of “take out”. Take out that I had to pick up after work. ”Honey, I’m hungry” she would call and say right as I was leaving for work just about everyday. I never got soo tired of such an over used phrase in my life, it ranks up there right beside “I Do”…….We should have never bought a stove…I gave her the damn thing in the divorce along with the house that she soo cherished. I bet she still hasn’t used the damn thing, probably still looks brand new… But anyway, back to my story, now where was I? Oh I remember, I was telling about the some of stories we’ve run…In fact, we ran a story one time on a local guy here that used to repair typewriters. His name was Buzby…He was a decorated veteran from WWII. And He blamed everything on the Japanese. Even the fall of the typewriter. He said he helped kicked their ass on the island of Ima Jima but then they came back years later and wiped us out with pencils and took away our typewriters and his livelihood while the United States Government slept and let them do it. Oh, and I almost forgot…He also blamed the “Russians”. Odd how the Cold War affected the people of that era. He never trusted anybody. Not even the Country he helped to defend.” Their watching us”, he would whisper when I interviewed him. “Watch what you say” he would whisper too pointing to the old dial phone like it was a secret government listening device. I think maybe all that typewriter ink must of went to his head and made him a little more than just crazy…. He finally had to learn how to repair VCR’s after the typewriter market collapsed…Sad thing is, the VCR market collapsed soon after that….I didn’t have the heart to tell him that it was only due to technology and that was beating all of us and not some foreign country. And everyone would eventually be passed over by it. Him, me, and you. Think about it. We can’t keep up with this pace forever. Soon we’ll be taking orders from robots!! We all eventually will grow tired of the rat race and settle down to repairing some small piece of machinery like an old lawnmower to pass the time or we’ll end up counting cars on the highway as they pass by. It’s unavoidable. …He died before the VCR market totally collapsed. I guess the Government finally did get him…..

As you can see, I tend to rattle on. I try to keep it to the point but as a former inspiring Journalist that never got to write for any of the “big time” newspapers, I have a little more freedom to carry on with my words…They used to call it “ADD”…I call it being a“ Word Smith”. Words are my trade so to speak. I seldom have “writer’s block” I could write for days, I write so much that the Editor here has to cut up my interviews. I would rather write too much than not enough. Unlike Cling and Clang, he has never asked me for a rewrite with more words……..Now back to the typewriter noises again for the third time….We here at the “E-Interview Monthly” are so hi-tech that the editor has us to program our laptops to sound like those old typewriters..Seems he grew up watching the old Superman sitcom in reruns and dreamed of being an editor in chief like Perry White. Looks like he got his dream. I have to ask this here though. “Why in the hell did all my dreams have to crash and burn then”?? I watched old reruns too. I even wanted to rescue Holly Marshall from the “Land of the Lost”. Is that such a bad thing? I even wrote her a fan letter as a kid and never got a response. I did however get a nice 8x 10 photo of the New Mickey Mouse Club Mousekateers when I wrote them. So there!!! GAME POINT!!…I wanted to be the hero too!!… So anyway back to my other point. We pacify the old man by using the old typewriter program. So I have to listen to Tap.Tap.Tap, DING!!DING!!BRRRRWW!!!..I guess it also tells him that work is being done and the next edition will be out right on time….But I can picture him sitting in front of the old boob tube as a fat little kid that ran all the way home from school each and every day to get a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and sit his happy ass down….Wonder why he didn’t pick Superman out as a hero instead of picking Perry White the editor of the “The Daily Planet”?. He must have been setting some realistic goals early on in life….I guess I missed that memo…..make a note of that, look for early signs of life memo’s in the next life..

I also forgot to tell you my boss’s name..Well….He has many names; it really depends on how I feel or what day it is. But his real name Mr. Ed….Ed Fulkerson. He’s a nice guy for the most part unless a deadline is fast approaching and the two other so called writers are lagging behind on their assignments. Cling and Clang the wonder twins!!..He can count on me though. I may be a little older, well a lot older than the other two guys but I can crank out stories faster than Superman!!
