Halloween

I decided to even out the blog posts currently on here. As of today, this post that you are reading is #70! Anyway, I was passing out candy to small children. After a while, I got bored between people, so I started tallying them up.

This was another "Social Experiment" because the news always says what kids will be wearing... and I decided to prove, at least KeenObservers.com wrong!

K.O. Said:
-AVATAR (James Cameron) is popular
Popular:
  • True Blood
  • Twilight’s Edward and Bella
  • Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland
  • Jersey Shore’s Snooki (SERIOUSLY!!!! COME ON!)
  • Harry Potter and the gang
  • The Office
  • Toy Story 3
  • Super Mario and Luigi
  • Batman
  • Super-Man
  • Darth Vader
 Well, Here are some of the actual popular costumes (2+ people, or unique)
  • Witch (9)
  • Princess(4)
  • Spiderman (3)
  • Pirate(2)
  • The Incredible Hulk (2)
  • Thing 1 or 2 (1 each)
  • Dinosaur (2)
      I just plain liked these:
  • Military Dude
  • Fat Guy
  • Horseman from some Apocalypse movie
  • Ski-Masked Sombrero-Wearing Low-Budget Ninja (ok, that was me...)
I did, mind you, see Batman, Superman, Luigi, and Lady Gaga. However, to my pleasure, I didn't see SNOOKI or Twilight or any of that whole TEAM Jacob or TEAM Edward crap.

That ends Halloween, and now onto Thanksgiving and Christmas!


An After Note: I didn't see many people that I knew... I didn't see Clay or Andrew or Jeff, but I did see my friend's cousin Ivan!

Polio, CarLynTon, Halloween, and other stuff

Please note: this post will be written over a period of time!

I'd like to thank all of you for your continued support with everything. My blog is a mishmash of me ranting abou everyday things. My next question: Why must High School come with some much drama?

I was recently approached by my pretty good friend about a video contest. It is concerning Polio, and how it affected life as we know it. I am going into this as my first real video project. I am going to start over. That DnC Show was a great concept, the JSVH a great temporary success, and Total Randomness: COME ON! I only have so many blooper reels. So, with my good friend, I am going into this. I prefer not to talk about it, but I can give only some information. However, I am going to have people with music, stories, and a not-so-professional writer!

Halloween. One of my least favorite holidays. Sure, I put on that whole, "I love Halloween" act. Honestly, it is the one day out of the year where people are given an excuse to act something that they aren't. So, you are telling me that you want to portray SNOOKIE or something like FREDDY CROUTON! Anyway, people, myself included, act like something that they are not all of the time. I can quite frankly be schizophrenic... angry at one point, and break down laughing the next.

CarLynTon: a story of how things became what they are today. My next great project, and the one that may have any potential this year. Yes, I contemplated going onto the "BBC 2 1/2 Forever" mode, but that is just illogical. Much like Disney, I can only hold onto an audience for long. Well, more details to come.

Desktop Rants and Raves

Lately, all I have been doing is ranting about my life quite cryptically. I realize that I have shortcomings, and messups, as I am only human.

Every day, and at least once an hour, I get an idea to write here. My ideas are normally ranting, political, whining, or fiction. I normally forget this almost immediately.

On the off chance that the fiction gets retained, I will file it under my new and currently being tested category "Creative Writings." 90% of the time, it will involve a more exciting variation of either me or one of those around me. Don't expect an explanation, for this is all that I will give. Cryptic, and at the same time, not-so-hard to crack.

This was a short rant, but it is desktop material.

The Man with the White Bag

In the alley, it seemed out of nowhere, appeared the pudgy man with the denim. He was wearing a jean-jacket and jeans as it was the average October day. He was quick in his manner, and seemed to passersby to be in somewhat of a hurry.

He preferred the alleyways and sidestreets to deal with the deed and the task presented. He carried protectively the peculiar white garbage bag, not tied at the top. As he walked, he was careful his purpose to be known.

Up the street he went, passing a dog by a golf course, and the quickly-setting sun over the horizon of his final destination. He launched the bag into the trailer. His deed was done.

It Appears That There is a Problem

It turns out that there are people who actually read this blog. There was a recent comment on my Facebook page. It was mentioned that I don't post here, to the naysayer (Natalie), I say, I will post as I feel like and think of stuff!

I Find The World To Be A Confusing Place

Every time I go on a rant or story about the Boy Scouts, I get immediately put back in my place. They tell me "What if I don't care about your stupid adventures with the boy scouts.... because I don't want to hear about it!" What I do find interesting is that as not being a member of the band, I am constantly bombarded with rants and rambles about the band. Personally, I don't care about them, but I listen politely. Why can't someone, anyone listen for twelve seconds, nod their head, and just listen.

I realize that I was put on this Earth to listen, and to try and understand. I have also learned that I am to understand, not too be understood. Now that I have that out of my system, I will now rant about more crap that no one cares about!  

Campaganza 2010: Over the weekend of the 24th of September, there was an event that at least I will be talking about for years.
I am currently working on a video project to document that... three days of scouting, camping, and bad puns.

Today, I went on a hike through the Slippery Rock Creek Gorge. Six miles, and there was nothing to do but think, and try not slipping into the creek. It was great, and there was nothing to think about... I had a great time. If you ever get a chance, go there!

Well, I feel like in that movie "UP" with the whole "squirrel" thing... but that's it for now...
