The Best Character from My Childhood


I remember waking up on Saturday mornings to watch Rocko's Modern Life. I loved him so much I named my German Shepherd after him. My German Shepherd is now 9 years old so this must have been at least 10 years back. This television show was originally from Australia. I wonder why it was on Nick, if it has adult humor as well as satire, yet I'm sure kids today are watch worse programs such as Spongebob. Yet after Rocko ended, some of the staff went to work with/for Spongebob. Then they went off to produce camp Lazlo.

Dream Sweet Dreams







Good night, Sweet dreams,
Was the only thing you said,
As the covers tightened around me,
Their silky hold was suffacating,
They never lossened their grip,

As I laid half asleep,

Good night, Sweet dreams,
I heard you sing,
As my heavy, eyes slowly closed,
The darkness was creating unwanted images,
The pictures crushed my soul,

Good night, sweet dreams,
Is what you purred to me,
As my darkness slowly lifted,
The dawn made me feel alive,
It's light healed my wounds,

Good night, Sweet dreams,
Was what I whispered to you,
As the blade went deeper and deeper,
Crimson Red,
Flowing like a river,
Your life for my own.

Fan Fiction





→ This is what my idea of Trantor is. The multi-colored rocks represent minerals. Since Trantor is in outer space I imagined that since Trantor is hundreds of feet below the sun.  Since the sun cannot be seen, minerals form along with crystals. The colorful object in the middle is suppose to be a nuclear energy producer. The buildings are white, because there already is enough blackness. Also due to the lack of sunshine, the land is barren, that is why there is nothing but dirt and crystals.  The space craft at the entrance represents Trantor's technology.
→ Procedure:
1) You need a box
2) Cut the two side flaps and the top flap.
3) Make buildings out of paper →
4) Get a cap full of dirt and mix with a small amount of water and white Elmer's glue until mushy.
5) Place the mixture on the bottom flap on the bottom.
6) With a glue gun, glue the buildings down.
7) Hot glue the rocks on the bottom.
8) I used instant cappuccino mix as dirt yet you can use dirt.
9) Due to lack of paint I hot glued brown fabric to the outside of the box.

10) Hot glue 2 Styrofoam plates together and rap them in aluminum foil.
11) Hot glue the space craft to the outer corner of the box.
12) Use legos to make a structure to represent a nuclear power plant.

The Girl On The Train


↔ A by-product of society. Subject to mainstream culture. Consumer of all things "in." Wearing the typical American apparel she is tricked into thinking she should wear.
  →Shoes: Studded black boots, probably from Pay-less or Ross.
Shirt: White, style-less, long sleeved, under a black button up jacket from Hot Topic.
 → Pants: Jeans, dark washed, and skinny legged.
Eyes: Heavy coated mascara, with slight defect mascara stains on her eyes lids, by Revlon (maybe Maybelline, the label is worn-out). Eyeliner made to look like a raccoon's eyes.  Brown and medium, framed by long lashes.
Lips: Have a special cracked/pale lip effect due to 45 degree weather and no lipstick.
Fragrance: Probably anti-perspiring deodorant from either Dove or Teen Spirit; and nothing else.
Hair: Can probably be the "before" image of an anti-frizz hair product. Brown, slight waves to it, worn loose.
Face: Marked enough with small, red pimples that they could be connected and form an image. Never worn cover-up.  Nose too big/broad for her face. Full cheeks with a deep dimple interrupting the curve of her left cheek. A muffin top that refused to hid under the waistline of her low-cut jeans.
Legs: Too thick for her barely there, but somehow there bottom.
Body: Made to never fit into a size zero.
Everything about her screamed "ordinary." She seems to have vaccinated against the illness of Vanity.  I had seen this girl before. The type that never went to the restroom in a "pack," but rather alone. Somehow she is always one step behind the latest trend. Never envied The Kardashians'  for she has in her cranium what Kim has as a derrière. Not a genius but not a moron.  Sitting usually alone with a book in front. Or looking out the window, in a universe far, far away. In high school she must have felt like a character from "Mean Girls," but not a protagonist, or an antagonist, but rather a character in the background. One that is going through some awkward pubescent faze. Never seeming to fit in, yet never stood out enough to be marked as a "freak." She survived High school. Made it to college. As the weeks went by, she found college to be her second home. Most of the students walk alone, sitting alone. Everyone is in their own world, doing their own thing. No one looks at her. For the first time she feels comfortable going unseen. Just as she turns and looks me straight in the eye and smiles. And I realize that she is no one else but myself.

Dale Gribble ♥


  Dale Gribble is one of thee best characters. He can't run or catch but he can flee. He kills pest for a living. He never uses his real name for anything legal or anything at all. If the police ever tries to arrest you he will be the first to scatter. More smoke comes out of him then a chimany. He thinks everyone is watching him. He is always in his basement looking at people with his camaras. Joseph is his "son" yet it is obvious that he is John Recorns son, but Dale thinks that his wife was insiminated by an alien while he was away.

Canada's Seal Slaughter


Hundreds of thousands of baby harp seals have been clubbed to death in front of their mothers by fishermen in Canada. The quota that was set by the Canadian government for 2012 was about 400,000 seals. This number was expected to lower, since fewer seals were actually killed. The seal slaughter was restructured in 1987, and it was set to target seals that were two weeks old. At two weeks old the coat changes to grey. The Canadian government claims that these two week old seals are adults. At two weeks old harp seals are unable to swim and therefore escape. Despite arguments in favor of the seal slaughter, in 2001, veterinarians examined the skulls of the skinned seals and concluded that over 40% of the seals were still conscious and alive when they were skinned. Thus, harp seals are being skinned alive; the process of skinning an animals involves a small incision made either at the wrist or leg, the skin/fur is then ripped right off the animals body.
The Canadian seal slaughter is a commercial seal hunt, meaning that there are no aboriginal hunters, and no part of the seal is eaten, the body is simply discarded once the fur is removed. One of the arguments stated by the fishermen, is that the seals eat the cod that the fishermen are after, yet studies have shown that cod is only 3% of the seals diet. In fact the seals eat the animals that prey on cod. Thus a seal is part of a naturally balanced ecosystem. If you would like to take action or learn more about the issue here are some links:
