The Ultimate Warrior retired from wrestling 30 years ago and he still has his young fans. This little girl sent Warrior art work of him that she drew herself, and Warrior posted it on his facebook page. Here she is thanking the Warrior. Enjoy this. It’s an enjoyable video.

Some of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’s score of “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” leaks online. I like it. It’s very dark and creepy.
The story revolves around a journalist named, Mikael Blomkvist, who teams up with the young Lisbeth Salander on the search of a missing woman who disappeared 40 years ago. “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” hits theaters, Dec. 21st of this year.
Can’t wait for this movie. Love the book. I hope the American version is much better than the piece of shit, Swedish version.
Enjoy.

Kevin Eck, who is a popular online blogger for the wrestling community is soon leaving the Baltimore Sun newspaper to join the WWE to be part of their creative writing team for WWE story lines. Kevin got his start as a wrestling journalist when he used to be editor for “WCW Magazine”, when the WCW used to be around back in the day. Kevin then worked for the Baltimore Sun from 1986 until now.
His wrestling blog, in which he talks about everything from WWE to TNA Impact, have created a large following of readers. He would give his opinions and reviews on all WWE and TNA shows. He would even give professional wrestlers in person interviews for video as well. As a wrestling lover myself, I read his blog on a daily basis and he is an entertaining writer. He is an honest guy. He isn’t afraid to tell you what he liked and didn’t like about a certain wrestling show. I believe that’s why WWE gave him the nod. Congrats Kevin.
For a long time now, in his blog, he’s been saying he’s been wanting to turn John Cena heel (badguy) which WWE never did. Now this is a great opportunity for Mr. Eck to make that happen with the writing team of WWE. I hope Mr. Eck does make it happen. Turn John Cena heel with the story lines. Cena being the hero babyface all the time is getting old.
Mr. Eck is done posting at the Baltimore Sun as he will make a move to Stansford, Conn., to work for WWE Headquarters. Congrats Kev, and best of luck in your future. I hope the job goes well with him. Vince McMahon must of been reading his blog after all this time and he probably didn’t even know it!
See his blog, here.

NBC’s new upcoming show “The Playboy Club” will debut on TV sometime in Sept. I’m interested in seeing it and I will probably watch the first episode. The show is creating a lot of controversy in the news lately. Of course, all these activist groups are trying to get NBC to not air the show. The Parents Television Council wants it off the air, and so does Morality In Media. Gloria Steinem wants everyone to boycott the show just like her, she went undercover as a bunny for the real life Club.
Why is everyone going after NBC? Because this is Playboy we’re talking about here. I mean, it’s not like this show is going to have full nudity or anything. Nudity and porn is banned off NBC which is a family friendly TV station. Why did NBC allow the show to get aired later this Fall? Probably because the show is clean enough and not as dirty and sexual everyone thinks it is. Yes, the women will show legs and cleavage of course, but that’s about it. Nothing wrong with that, right? Plus, this is just a fictional soap opera even though it was inspired by the real thing.
Playboy gets attacked for everything they do because people wrongly think they are adult porn. Not really. They are an entertainment magazine for men. There is a big difference between nude modeling and porn. Think about it.
I think NBC deserves to air this show because us men need our soap opera fix, right? I mean, we get daytime soap operas for women during the day. How come these activist groups don’t attack the Daytime soap operas when there is plenty of sex in those? Oh that’s right, because they have nothing to do with fucking Playboy. “The Playboy Club” looks to be a show that is aimed for men only. I’m all for watching it and giving it a try. See what the show is like.
I’m siding with NBC on this one.

As some of you probably noticed by now, I’ve been doing a lot of book reading. Yes, a lot of it. Mostly fictional stories, celebrity biographies and music books. Why do I read a lot? Not only it’s a favorite hobby of mine. I just love fictional storytelling. While reading, you’re picturing yourself watching a movie in your head. A lot of people don’t like to read, but I do. Reading is good for you.
It’s not really healthy to watch hours of TV, browse the internet, or play video games, but reading books is way better. Reading books is safer for the eyes because you’re not looking at a screen. That’s why I hate those Nook and Kindle things. When people read novels on a Nook or a Kindle gadget, instead of reading from a book itself, that is no different than watching TV, playing with the internet or video games. I would read books on a hardcover or a paperback, not on a gadget thing.
Some of my favorite authors lately are Stephen King, George R.R. Martin, J.K. Rowling, Dan Brown, and Steig Larrson.
I’ve gotten back into reading books again, because I’m thinking about getting back into fictional writing myself. I’ve been planning on it for a long time. I’ve actually tried to go to College to improve my English and writing skills, but can’t go to college at this time, but maybe someday down the road though?
I will be mostly a horror and crime fiction writer. I just got Microsoft Word for my computer so I can get back into writing which I have.
If I upload any of my work for the world to read, I will get it professionally edited (for grammar and spelling mistakes), copyrighted and upload it in a .pdf document for Acrobat Reader. I’m not saying what I’m going to be working on. It’s a secret. I love storytelling. I try to tell stories in song form, but it’s time to get back into writing actual novels and short stories. Will I ever get something published in an actual novel down the road? I’m gonna try ’cause a published author is something I’ve always wanted to be for years. This was my original dream before music.

Now that the Metallica and Megadeth feud is over, hatchets buried, people are expecting the two bands to work a lot more musically in the future. When they get done with the Big 4 shows for good, what does Dave wants to do next? He is hoping to form a Metallica/Megadeth supergroup collaboration that will include members: Dave Mustaine, Dave Ellefson, James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich. Even though most of the band members agreed with the project, the only guy who didn’t want in was James Hetflied. James is not all for the project, he doesn’t want to do it. Even though James doesn’t want to do the project, Dave said he’s going to keep begging him until he says, “Yes”.
More on it, here.
Well, I’m sure the Metallica haters will accuse Dave of being desperate. I’m sure they will accuse this of not being a supergroup but being the original members of Metallica. I’m sure they will accuse the guys in Metallica of firing Dave again and the feud will start back up. Blah blah blah blah… I disagree with all of it.
You see. The feud is all over and done with. They’re all good and cool. Dave and James get along fine like brothers. I don’t think they will fight ever again.
I can see why James wouldn’t want to do it though, because Metallica is about to release a new album with Lou Reed and they don’t want this Megadeth/Metallica group to overshadow Metallica’s new album. This project won’t happen right away, but maybe down the road whenever James have a change of heart with it?
I think this is a cool idea. I don’t think Metallica will start shit with Dave ever again. 30 years ago, the guys in Metallica were drunks and they were very much trouble makers themselves. The guys in Metallica are not like that anymore. They’ve grown up and acting more mature now. Best of all, both Megadeth and Metallica got clean with alcohol and drugs. All that drama years ago, alcohol and drugs were part of the blame.
Dave deserves another chance with Metallica, guys. Give him a break. It’s about rebuilding friendships and re-filling the history with Metallica that Dave never had. Megadeth and Metallica will probably join forces someday, but under a different band name, probably. I hope the project happens, someday and I’m all for it!

I usually hate trending topics in facebook, but finally here’s one that everyone is doing that I actually like. People are doing this, “You Know You’re From (Your Home Town Here) when” in facebook groups. I like it because it’s a way for everyone in your hometown to get together to talk about the past or whatever. It helps brings your old classmates, old friends and people you know you haven’t seen in a while back together. Plus, it helps brings a lot of memories about your past in your hometown.
In the Greenwich group, it certainly is helping me remember my past in Greenwich. It’s helping me remembering my childhood a lot more. These “hometown” groups and discussions has quickly became so addicting. I can’t stay out of them.
Who ever the one who came up with this idea in facebook deserves some kudos. Finally a good topic where everyone can appreciate and get into. Something serious for once.
This is very cool!

Last Sunday night, I finally got around to watching the new “Piranha” remake. A Netflix DVD rental.
The film stars Elizabeth Shue, Jerry O’ Connell and Christopher Lloyd. All 3 actors who starred in a bunch of iconic movies from the ’80’s.
The story is taken place at Lake Victoria where young college kids have their Spring break and have their parties. It isn’t just a regular party, it’s a wild one. There are bikini babes everywhere, and there’s a DJ spinning techno music where all college students would dance. The thing is, all the college students are partying above the lake where they would have the dance floor on a floating stage and kids would party on jet skis and other boats. The leading character, Jake has a crush on this girl named, Kelly, and they ended up meeting another guy named, Derrick (Jerry O’ Connell) who is an online video pornographer. Derrick hires Jake for a job so he can help Derrick find good filming spots on his boat to film porn movies with lesbian women. Of course, things go wrong when the piranha’s underwater are swimming around looking for human flesh to feed on.
Enough with the plot. Now on with a brief review. Movie fans and critics are calling this movie, the worst movie of 2010, but really? Did I watch the same movie they watched? I didn’t find anything wrong with it really. It was a very enjoyable flick. I actually liked it and didn’t see anything wrong with it. It’s just a good popcorn horror film. It’s like a B-movie for sure. I enjoy movies like that. It’s one of those movies where you can watch in the summer for sure. I thought the movie was gory, sexy, and it was even scary in some parts. Yes, the movie was whacky, silly and humorous but that’s what I liked about it.
I loved the opening scene with Richard Dreyfuss, plus Christopher Lloyd was just great in the film even though he wasn’t in it much. I also loved Jerry O’ Connell’s performance, plus Elizabeth Shue is looking much older. Best of all, there’s a lot of topless women and naked tits throughout the film as well. When people slammed this movie when it first came out, I wanted to see it myself in theater but missed it. Never got around to seeing it until now. It wasn’t a bad film and I so am looking forward to the sequel now.

Gavin Degraw was released from the hospital today after being the victim of a brutal assault by three men. He was also hit by a taxi cab. The singer/songwriter suffered a concussion, broken nose, and numerous, cuts and bruises. Gavin had to cancel the rest of the tour so he can rest and heal up.
More on the story, here.
I hope the attackers do the right thing and turn themselves in. So sad. Gavin’s going to have to live with this for the rest of his life. I wish him well, I really do.

I’ve been following the news of the London riots. It’s getting nastier over there. I’ve never been over to London but it looks to be a beautiful city. I’d say to those protesters destroying London, if you don’t like that city, move the fuck out!!!
