How fast does thought travel? Have you ever given any thought to it? Maybe I’m in the minority, and just maybe I’m in need of medication, but my thoughts race and go from one thing to the next within seconds. Just a few minutes ago I was thinking profoundly and deep about a conversation another blog writer and myself was having and how he thought I shouldn’t write about something because I’m not really a “fan” of that something. My thoughts then switched to being politically correct, because it’s kind of the same thing…not liking something, but having to bite your tongue about it. Then I thought about pizza, because one time I was enjoying a slice of pizza so much that I literally bit a hole right through my tongue. I had my ears pierced for a time…I had four holes in my left ear. I like corn..though why does it come on an “ear” but we call it a cob? I really want a soda, I think when I get paid I’ll go to PP Cobb general store and get a rat bastard root beer. Were you saying something?
I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for some theme park news today!

A Miami man was arrested, at gunpoint, for trying to break into the Marine Mammal Conservancy in Key Largo. Apparently he has ties to the Animal Liberation Front (ALF-which was a great TV show in the 80′s about an alien) and they are upset that the center is turning over two Pilot Whales to Sea World in Orlando. Nevermind the fact that Sea World has successfully rehabilitated thousands of marine animals, and will most likely be successful with the survival of this whale. I guess that ALF just wants to have them die in the wild after being affected by man made contaminants. Full story
Worlds of Fun just broke the World’s Record for the tallest can Pyramid. With the help of County Mart Foods, the park was able to stack 17,576 cans. All food was then boxed and donated to Kansas area charities. Full story
It’s stories like this that remind us that we let these people have children. A lady at a Six Flags park left her “prescription” Pomeranian…thats a little fluff of a dog…in her car. Park staff and sheriff deputies thought the dog was dead, so they smashed the window to rescue the dog. The dog was revived at the park’s kennel and it escaped through a door. Staff could not retrieve the dog, and it ran…not to it’s owner (who left it to die in a hot car) but away. The lady explained how she left a cup of water and a window cracked for the dog while she went to play in the park. Full story

GWAR failed to secure permits…ya know what I don’t care what they did or didn’t do. I just wanted to write something about GWAR so that I could post a video. GWAR just isn’t in the news enough these days, in fact, they aren’t really anywhere. Full story
For all you Twitards out there, the first full trailer has been released. I really don’t see how anyone can hope this will be compared to the last two Harry Potter Films. I mean a kid fights for the world, confronting the ultimate evil, and Edward just bangs his girlfriend….how does it compare. But because I’m a good husband, I will take my wife to see it…god help me.
Now even though I’ll be the good husband, what do you want to bet my wife will not go see the Expendables 2 with me? The kick ass action hero movie just got a little more kick ass with a confirmed casting of Jean Claude Van Damme, and Chuck Norris. Correction, the film didn’t cast Chuck Norris, Chuck Norris is just letting the film into his life. The film will also see an epic fight between JCVD and Stallone. John Travolta and Nic Cage are also in talks to star. Full story
