Batter Blaster

Batter Blaster this stuff looks intriguing!! how often have i wanted pancakes but didn't want to make the batter myself!

Sunday night Blahs

Just in a funk tonight. am missing having a pet around. it has only been a month since my Cody died. i miss haveing something furry lurking around here. \\

that was my Cody Bear, quite the regal beast. smart as anything. it still hurts not having her around. i know she is somplace where she can still keep watch over us and keep watch on my mom and Shadow, Cody's bestest bud. Both Mom and Shadow died within months of each other 3 years ago.

Ever revoloving world

i have always believed in a higher power - I was raised in the Roman Catholic Church I have always felt there were always other paths to God. I am also realistic that in this modern day in a relatively modern world, to impose one's religious onto another is wrong. to live in a place which is a theocracy defies logic in my mind. Allow people to practice their religion but have state and religion as one, like in some countries inthe Middle East.

there is room for relion but there no room in politics for religion

Paranormal Shows onTV

the good the bad and the not so much. for a long time there were few shows on TV that didn't deal with the paranormal and fewer shows on tv that showed what was involved in investigating a location. the onlyh time such shows were on were around Halloween. Now there are several investigation shows on the air year round.

When you have a crew investigating a location, you want to have the least amount of chances to contaminate eveidance as possible. when you have a camera crew following you around, like with Ghost Hunters and Ghost Hunters International, that is the case. A camera crew working for the SyFi channel follows TAPS around the location. Also with TAPS, there is controversy going on. Several people who were core members are no longer with TAPS due to one reason or another. With TAPS and both frnchises of Ghost Hunters its more like the drama between members rather than the evidence or location. Also people have come forward and made comments that eveidence was staged or corrupted.

What I didn't like with the leadership of TAPS was that all eyewitness accounts can be explained away. They go in with the ghosts are not ghosts but people's imagination getting the best of them.

There are shows out there are actually good. A show like Destination Truth is a bit differant because the camera and sound people are part of the investigative crew and not a separate entity, no pun intended. Sometimes they get eveidence, soemtimes not. I think Josh Gates (the host of Destination Truth) said once that sometimes you win sometimes you loose.

Another show that is good,Ghost Adventures. The guys are the camera crew and investigators in very studly packaging! Almost every location they have gone to they got evidence. They don't take themselves seriously. When they get evidence, they take that to someone who in the know about such things.

Melting Snows

its the time of the day when i start to wonder what to do next. sometimes i have made a list what to do for the week (or the day). about 2:30 to 3 i start to think about what to start next. should i start something now or have it wait til tomorrow morning. i look at that list and most of the items are things that require a fair amount fo time to compete. that is the case now. most of the things can wait til tomorrow or later in the week.

Dreams

Been doing a lot of thinking of what i want to do. i have been thinking of getting a RV and travel around the country and blogging about what i saw and who I met along the way. Big issue is money. how to pay for things on the way. what sort of support can i get on the way. charge for the blog? newsletter? sell photos on the way?

In a Funk

With all this snow we had since December, I got into a funk. With a storm practically every week or in one week, we had two storms and over 5 feet of snow on the ground, not getting out started to get BORING!! you can only do soo much on the puter and laundry gets done in short amount of time.
