These are a few videos I made a while ago. I need to make more but I can't find the time.
Maybe I'll post more sometime.

Dead man Walking! Or....More like Standing
This man didn't want the traditional lay in the casket routine. He wanted to have his body chill in the corner while his family mourned his passing. Can you say CREEPY!!
I mean this is messed up on so many levels.

Mediator for the Fingernail
(The term 'fingernail' as used in this post refers to an unborn fetus. It's used in sarcasm because of the comparison pro-abortionists use between a fetus and a fingernail.)
How is it that I can walk up to a pregnant woman, pull a gun out, and blow her life out the back of her head, and I’ll get charged with a double homicide? What two people did I kill? I shot the pregnant woman. But who else? I mean, sure, there was a fingernail in her stomach. But who cares about the fingernail? You can only get in trouble for killing a person, not for clipping a fingernail.
Our judicial system is two-faced. On the one hand they say that killing a pregnant woman is a double homicide. But then they say that a doctor can rip a baby’s arms and legs off and put it back together like a bloody puzzle and that’s ok.
A courtroom ruled that the kicking thing that sucks its thumb is not a human being. Does that mean we should believe it? Since when do we take what a courtroom says and make that our moral standard? Are you stupid? A courtroom is going to tell you what’s right and wrong? You never trusted them before but now that it’s convenient for you, you believe it. A courtroom also ruled that O. J. Simpson was innocent. So obviously we know there are flaws in the system. Sure, you can just believe the courts like a freakin good little robot citizen. I choose to think for myself.
What makes a person human? Apparently to most people it’s just the way something looks. Because that baby isn’t fully developed you say it isn’t human. What is fully developed? People don’t stop changing. So let’s rule that you can kill people until they are fifty years old because they generally stop changing at about fifty. Unless they get their grey hair later in life. Then we can kill them a bit later. How stupid could you possibly be? No courtroom is going to tell me what to believe no matter how many ignorant fools go by it. Nothing was proven scientifically. How can you scientifically say that that baby is not human? It is a human being with every right to live that you have.
How many chromosomes does a human being have? Don’t know? 46 chromosomes in a human being. 23 from the mother and 23 from the father. Do you know how many of those chromosomes are in a fetus? 46. So a logical thing to say is that a fetus with 46 chromosomes is a human being.
Oh, but everyone uses the argument. “What about a rape situation?” Well, what about a soldier stepping on a land mine? Bad things happen to good people. And there are things you will have to carry with you for the rest of your life. Emotionally challenging things. There is no way to get rid of those traumatic memories. In both situations the people involved will have to carry emotional scars with them for the rest of their lives. They will both have to carry physical things that will remind them for the rest of their lives. Oh, wait, no, the pregnant woman only has to carry it for nine months. That soldier has to be in a wheel chair for the rest of his life because he set off that explosive. He has no innocent child he can kill to escape his physical reality that reminds him daily of the pain he went through. He just has to live with it. Sure rape is a really bad thing to happen. No one believes you deserved it. Rotten things happen to a lot of people. Give it up for adoption. Don’t kill it!
Oh, and now we come to the argument. “Do you know how bad orphanages are? You get beat up all the time. It’s like being in prison. The child would be better off dead.” Give. Me. A. Break. They are not that bad! Sure it’s a hard life and the child may not be happy. But who is really happy all their life? Life is hard. It’s the hard things that make us the people we are. It’s the hard things in life that, when fought through, will produce a person with more sense than to kill an innocent child so you can feel better. Besides! Why do you suddenly pretend to care about the kid? You would have been happy to have KILLED the innocent young child a few months ago. Now all of a sudden you’re afraid it will get a boo boo? Don’t try to play the orphanage card! Getting beat up is far better than getting dead! You don’t care about those kids. You just like the argument so that you can ‘seem’ like you care while trying to get your agenda across.
And many would say, "But if it isn't legal then the mothers would be out in alleys and using hangers to try and get an illegal abortion. We're just protecting them." I say we can't control what people do outside of the law. Bank robbers in the old west would get shot lots of the time. Danger is a part of doing illegal things. Should we legalize every crime because 'they'll get hurt trying anyway'? Of course not.

Texting Tips
In our day and age it is very common to see multiple people in the mall or at work (hopefully only on break :D) with a cell phone in their hand. Now some people (mostly old) look at this with scorn and annoyance but I think most people have become used to it.
Why do people hate texting so much? Are texters becoming the new "black"? Are people becoming racist toward texters?
I know, I know, there are times when texting is not appropriate like at the dinner table or in the middle of an important conversation. Or while driving. DRIVING. But come on people. Texting exists and if you're paying for it then you better use it.
So while alot of old people who are afraid of change and electronics in general are the ones who mostly don't approve of texting, there are many people who just don't like it. I like it alot because it's quicker than calling someone up and then feeling like you have to chat for a few minutes so as not to come across rude. You can simply text them and ask your question and even if they send their reply with another sentence about how they have a huge problem in their life and they need to talk to someone about it you can always pretend you didn't get it or something. Just don't reply and you're off the hook. For those of you who are slow, that was called sarcasm. But seriously it's very quick and useful.
People need to be more patient toward texting but on the other hand, we texters need to be careful when we text and try not to be rude or unsafe about it. Ladies, if a guy reaches in his pocket and gets to one knee it's probably not the best time to whip out your phone and start composing a text.
Just know when it's appropriate and when it isn't. It's not that hard. And don't become addicted to it either.
Texters will always be texters and old people will always be old. But can't we all just get along?
While writing this post it reminded me of a little secret I found out that I'm going to share with you. If you do not have texting but you have one of those annoying friends who always seems to think you do no matter how big the sign is on your forehead that reads 'don't text me you freaking idiot. I don't want to pay a quarter each time you forget.' Well here is a tip for you; you only pay for a text if the little envelope symbol next to the text is open. If it is still closed then you haven't opened it yet and you will not be charged for it. Now the secret the cell phone companies don't want you to know is that you can actually highlight the text (do not open it) and then hit options. In the menu you then hit forward and it will open a new text message with the entire unopened text you got from that annoying friend in it. You can read their entire text without actually opening it and being charged for it. Just a helpful hint. You thought you couldn't get facebook mobile but you can!! You can't update your status though.
Just don't open those texts and you're fine. And don't send the forwarded text obviously. ha bye.

Upcoming Superhero Movies Preview
I'm a superhero fan. I love any story that is told in the right way so comic book history is fascinating to me. (I just bought a sweet batman snow hat!)
I always get excited when there is a new movie about a superhero coming out. Well usually I do. Ghost rider not so much. Btw, they're making a sequel to that. I don't really know why since the first one kinda bombed out. But oh well, when did movie makers ever really make a super good decision.
I'm pretty excited about the new Green Lantern movie. Looks cool enough. Trailer here. I just hope they don't go too far with the whole "I'm a geek that got super powers and it's like totally cool check me out" thing. And the storyline that he struggles with being afraid is weird since Hal Jordan is a test pilot for new aircraft.
I'm pretty excited about The new Dark Knight movie although it's lame that they think they can get everyone all excited about it by using the same name. Well they add "Rises" after it but still.
The Warrior's Way isn't a superhero movie but it just looks sweet. Trailer.
Cowbowboys and Aliens is another non-superhero movie that looks interesting but I'm not getting excited yet. Trailer.
The Green Hornet looks okay maybe. Not sure about that one yet. Trailer. The old tv show was cool. But that had Bruce Lee so yeah. Seth Rogen is everything that a superhero isn't but it could work.
There is a new Superman animated full length film coming Febuary 22nd called All-Satr Superman. Those of us who are up on comicdom knopw that this was a comic/graphic novel about Superman's last days on earth. I haven't really been impressed by the animated Superman movies so far but who knows.
And just to end this post I'll give you a trailer for a movie I just think looks cool. It's called Sucker Punch.
Oh and how could I forget the new show The Cape coming to nbc in January. Trailer. This could be promising although the interaction between him and his son is over the top corny.
Okay that's all I have for today. Watch the trailers and make your list of movies and shows you want to see.

Applying Online
Searching for a job isn't what it used to be. At one time you had to actually get up and go to wherever you wanted to apply and actually meet someone face to face and fill out a resume or an application.
Nowadays whenever you go into a store and ask for an application you'll usually get this response, "Oh, everything is online. Just go to our website and......." yada yada yada.
Well as easy as that makes it for their human resources people, it's not very easy on the person applying. Why? Because applying online is cold and impersonal. You don't actually meet anyone. There's no chance of making a good impression. All you are to them is a white document that's doing everything it can in it's desperation to impress them. There is no dress to impress. There's no winning smile or firm handshake. What are we supposed to do? What can we possibly write on that document that will grab their attention?
I for one am sure that I can make a far better impression in person than my word document can. Should I put a riddle at the top of my resume and then say the solution is at the bottom? How can I get them to actually look at mine and not just hit delete because it's just another white screen?
Let me apply in person. Let me shake your hand and smile while I look you straight in the eye. If you have any questions I can answer them right then and there. Don't send me to the hopeless dead end of applying online.
Sincerely,
Job Hunter

Airport Searches
What's up with these airports? I don't personally fly that much. I've flown a few times in my life but I rarely get the chance to take a trip or anything like that. Needless to say, I haven't been search by this new method that everyone is talking about.
I understand why it would be very weird to be patted down by a stranger as if you were some kind of criminal. I mean in America we're supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. So why do they assume five year old girls are carrying bombs? It's scary and uncomfortable for alot of people.
On the other hand, think about the security people. It's got to be really weird for those guys. I mean you have to feel up thousands of angry frustrated people all day long. Nice. Plus, terrorists really would use five year old girls to get bombs onto a plane. You can never be too careful right? These people are freaks. They have no respect for themselves or anyone else. How do you guard against something like that?
People get mad at the airlines for these new "searches" going on. People get mad at the airlines for not searching hard enough when a plane gets hijacked. The airlines are in a lose lose situation.
Both sides of this controversy have their relevant arguments. Both sides need to be patient and understanding concerning the other. The news can shut up about it. They aren't helping.
In the day and age we live in there is no way to completely protect ourselves against the animals in the world. What can we do? Those people on those planes need to be protected and if you ask me, I'd rather be patted down than blown out of the sky.
