We've all heard the adage of how it's illegal to shout fire in a theatre. Well now someone has actually been charged with it. A 33 year old man has been arrested and is being charged with causing a public disturbance and false reporting of an emergency after reportedly yelling "I have a fire" inside the Century Orleans 18 theatre during a showing of Fast & Furious 7. The man is currently being held by Las Vegas Police and is currently awaiting bail.
People who were in the theatre at the time this incident took place tell a tale that may seem to be completely innocent. Witnesses have told this publication that a group of men were sitting in the theatre just before the movie started, and were playing with their phones. According to eyewitness account, when one of them asked, "What kind of phone do you have?", one of them replied "An iPhone," another "An Andriod," and the suspect replied "I have a Fire." Apparently somebody overheard this conversation and panicked at the sound of somebody saying "I have a fire" in a theatre.
The suspect in this case has yet to be identified and is expected to bail out later today.
Recently Microsoft released a list of the commands that users can utilize while using their new Xbox One Kinect. When they released this list, two questions came to the minds of many gamers. One: Why isn't this list included on a card with the Xbox One so that you can know what you can and cannot command your Xbox One to do? Two: Where are the porn commands?
Where is the list of commands that allow users to watch an unlimited supply of pornography with their Xbox One? Where is it? Do I have to reference a specific cable channel that I receive that may or may not have pornography on it, depending on the time of day? Do I have to say the title of a specific video that is in my collection in order for my Xbox One to play it? Does Xbox One recognize the names of the videos that I have in my collection, and does that mean that I should have a variance in the names of the pornographic videos in my collection, as opposed to "Brunette1", "Brunette2", "BlondeBigTits", etc.? Sure I already can watch pornography on my couch by using my iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Xbox 360, PS4, PS3, PS2, Xbox, Media PC, Laptop, and other various devices that I currently own, but I also want to use my Xbox One to watch pornography. I mean, they call it the XBONE for a reason, right?
After buying a new laptop and paying that laptop off, I am back to pursuing my top priority, Project Buy A House. As I go forward, I have a better idea of how much money I need to save for a downpayment after talking to a banker.
No, wait, the guy I talked to is not a crook! The banker I talked to works for a credit union, which means he is somewhat more trustworthy. At least I think he's more trustworthy. At the very least, the credit union I talked with is not projecting a sense of being run by slimeballs. However, since I do have a better idea as to how much money I need to save for a downpayment, I now know that amount is bigger than it was when I first started saving.
Yeah, I know, it's frustrating, but it was frustrating before, and now it's just a slightly increased amount of frustration. But eventually this will pay off, right? Right? RIGHT?!? Sigh. Okay, let's do this.
Another payday has come around, and it's time to see just what I could buy with my money if I was not spending it on Project Buy A House. After seeing my paycheck and taking out things like rent, insurance, and other incidentials, I have exactly $287.71 to not spend on myself. Let's see what I am not buying.
My car, which I paid off as a part of Project Buy A House, has an all black leather interior. Cars with all black leather interior tend to become very ward during the Summer months. This is something I should have thought of in advance, but I don't think about the consequences of my long term plans before I make them. Another example of this is Project Buy A House.
The Boston Red Sox sell a car sunshade that can help prevent your car from becoming very very very very hot during the Summer months. Sure this is something that I should have bought in the Spring before the heat started, but shut up. The Boston Red Sox Car Sun Shade costs $21.99, leaving me with $265.72 for me to not spend on myself. Sigh.
UFC 164 is this weekend. You can buy and watch this event online and legally for $54.99. This leaves me with $210.73 for me to not spend on myself. Sigh.
Since I do have a big fucking SUV, I need a GPS system to have in my big fucking SUV in order to pull off the entire "I'm a motherfucking doucebag with money, fuck you" aesthetic. Since I am also tying to pull off this aesthetic on a budget, I need to incorporate things that I already own, like my iPhone. What I need to do this is an iPhone 5 car mount, as well as a long lightening cable for my iPhone. Since Apple doesn't sell long lightening cables, I need to buy a short lightening cable plus a USB extension cable. Altogether, this entire package costs $37.72. That leaves me $173.01 for me to not spend on myself. Sigh.
Franz Ferdinand recently released a new CD called "Right Thoughts Right Words Right Action". This CD is getting generally good reviews, and Franz Ferdinand is one of those bands I really got into during my lengthy college experience. Right Thoughts Right Words Right Action is currently on sale for $9.99. This leaves me $163.02 for me to not spend on myself. Sigh.
There is also a new album coming out from Jack Johnson. I haven't seen any reviews for it or heard any singles, but I fucking love this guy's music. Currently you can get Form Here To Now To You for $11.88. That leaves me $151.14 for me to not spend on myself. Sigh.
Saint Row IV recently came out, and people have been raving about it since it came out. I would have bought it when it came out, but Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Saints Row IV is currently selling for $59.99. That leaves me $91.15 for me to not spend on myself. Sigh.
Let's end things with a list of books for me to not buy for myself that I totally would if not for Project Buy A House. March Book 1, which is the first part of a series of graphic novels about John Lewis and his life and role in the civil right movement, is currently selling for $11.46. Crazy Love is a book that takes an inside look at abusive relationships, how those relationships develop, and why people stay in those abusive relationships. As powerful as Leslie Morgan Steiner's TED talk was, this book appears to be even more powerful. Crazy Love is currently selling for $12.00. Some Ginger is selling another book for $4.88. Hubris by David Corn and Michael Isikoff, which details the manipulating of intelligence leading up to the Iraq War and serves as a cautionary tale for conflicts going forward, is currently selling for $11.45. Tao Lin's Taipei, a book which was mentioned in the recent Rolling Stone article about him, is currently selling for $11.36. Love, Dishonor, Marry, Die, Cherish, Perish, the final book from the unfortunately deceased David Raikoff, is currently selling for $20.05.
That leaves me with $19.95 for me to not spend on myself, which seems like just the right place to stop. Sure I could go on, but my appetite for masochism has it's limit, and I have reached it. Join me in two weeks when another payday will come and, because I've already paid my rent, I will have more money for me to not spend on myself in the pursuit of Project Buy A House.
Take your normal superhero origin story. Guy gets powers, guy realizes he has powers, guy goes out to save the world. Now factor this in: the guy has a score to settle.
Everybody wonders what it is that makes them who they are. The Hawk thought that question was securely answered. However a meeting with a boy in a hospital causes him to question everything. Why he is, who he is, what he is, and even if he is.
Eleven years after the events of Consequences Of Mayorust, The Hawk finds himself dealing with many of the same issues that many of us deal with: A less than satisfying job, co-workers of variant annoyance, and a romantic life is unhealthy at best. Thrust into all this is Madison Medina, a well meaning woman who's adversarial relationship with The Hawk morphs into a kind of friendship. Madison, in addition to learning more about herself and her abilities, help to reveal deeper problems inside the organization both she and The Hawk work for.
In every workplace there is a person. A person who doesn't talk to anyone, has walled themselves socially, and seems openly hostile to everyone. Every workplace has this person, even if you don't know of such a person, they're there. The Black Robin Christmas Carol is the story of one of these people. It delves into who this person is, why this person is, and how this person can change for the better.
There is a story. A story of pain, a story of loss, a story of unspeakable horrors, a story that has not been given it's proper attention. Some are ignoring this story. Some are unaware of this story. Some know of this story but are complicit in it's darkness. This is a story that must be told. Told so that the good can stop it and the bad can feel shame for it.
When I thought up thig blog, the name I first thought up was "Random Bullshit". Quickly I recognized that this name would put some people off. Then I thought of the name "Random Bull****". That seemed to be to much clutter. Then I was inspired with the name that dons this blog today.
