To all of my friends who are Muslim or Gay or Mexican or Black or … whatever.
I still stand with you. This is one white boy that still believes we should all have equal rights and should be viewed equally under the Constitution.
We may not have the president we want, but I will continue to try to be a good neighbor. Average people everywhere in America should resolve to be fair, tolerant and decent — the better to counterbalance the failings of those in power.
“Japanese clock melted by WWII nuclear bomb. On display in the War Memorial museum, Canberra, Australia. The hands apparently show the time of the explosion. The infocard described the glass face as being melted by the blast (you can see it dripping at the bottom), and said the clock was found near the centre of the explosion.”

Both are pretty creepy, though!
Next year, I’m going with “The X Files'” Alien Bounty Hunter!
I can’t let Halloween go by without at least one movie recommendation.
DO check out “Bone Tomahawk.”
Let’s get something out of the way first — “Bone Tomahawk” (2015) isn’t only a western. It’s a genre-busting … “horror-western,” as other review sites have called it. It pits four protagonists against a tribe of monstrous “cave dwellers” who have kidnapped two people from their tiny frontier town of “Bright Hope.” And the results at the movie’s end are pretty damned horrifying.
This was superb — I’d give it a 9 out of 10. “Bone Tomahawk” succeeds in being scary and enjoyable simply because it’s a quality film.
