So a few months ago, right around Halloween, I wrote a short ghost story, read and enjoy on this chilly night. :)
p.s. I've never actually seen Goonies, but meh...

wikiweak
I kind of get wikileaks, I get that we have a right to know, I get that Julian Assange looks like a James Bond villain, and I get why the government(s) should be worried. What I don't get is why the Conservatives (read:teabaggers) are all "It's Obama's Fault!" First off my pretties, wikileaks has been around since 07, two years before OBama took office, secondly, I thought that you wanted the gov to NOT keep secrets from you? you can have your cake, you can eat it, too, but you can't ask for cake and then demand pie. Also, THIS (I like to redirect to Ms. PalinUSA's twitter whenever possible, it's just too damn fun.)
a) Assange is not American and does not live in the US, nor does the internet belong to America, so Treason is a bit of a stretch, really.
b) Inexplicable, really? There's a difference between Copyright and Governement documents.
c) Way to plug your book and rile your rabid dog followers all in one tweet.

quick, someone get a silver bullet!
Mtv is making a Teen Wolf series, trailer here. I can hear hundreds of proud MJ Fox fans howling in the distance, because nothing ruins your glory days quite like a "sexy" and "dark" remake of an iconic 80s comedy! Personally, I wish the industry would stop thinking everything needs a "gritty" reboot. Where's the fun, Hollywood? Vampires and Werewolves aren't real so quit trying to make me watch something that takes them so seriously, same with superheroes. I think someone needs to take this show behind the tool shed and put it out of its misery. Bright side is that it can't get any worse than it already has, right?

The world's oldest person died...
BBC says that the world's oldest person, Eugenie Blanchard has died. She was 114. She was born in 1896 in france and was living as a nun, meaning she lived through 2 world wars, Oscar Wilde's last play, and many other historical events, which is simply astounding. An American woman now holds the title of eldest human, Eunice Sanborn of Texas, only 5 months younger than Blanchard. And as this article points out, she has lived through the Spanish-American War, the creation of Yosemite as a national park, the annexation of Hawaii, the Panama Canal, the hurricane of 1900 at Galveston, Prohibition, Henry Ford’s first car, World Wars I and II, the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, the Great Depression, plastic wrap, TV dinners, Watson and Crick’s DNA double helix model, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, Elvis, the Beatles, the Shelby Mustang, mini-skirts, Watergate, the microwave oven, disco and the iPhone. Whew, that is almost unfathomable to me, thinking that if I lived to 114, it would be 2106, 30 years after the tricentennial,and, according to the Amish, there will be one giant megalopolis in place of states, permeated by, you guessed it, amish settlements. And I'll be 114 years old a daunting number, and something I, personally, wouldn't want.

Ads literally everywhere
I was having lunch at the Park Meadows mall today and the table had a nascar ad plastered to it, which was almost insulting to mall goers' intelligence, I can understand the llightrail ads, but table ads cross a very fine line.
