It was the first horror movie in years that got me to jump if only for a moment and now I wonder if its remake will make me flinch. Maybe it was the originality of the first film that got to me or could it be the quality of the film that did it therefore can it’s remake have some of that same impact. The trailer opens that possibility but the lack of reviews now makes you think that this film is not worth putting on any of your fingers.

After more then 20 years it still hurts as it is a struggle to hold back tears. Traumatic events never full close they leave a scar that can easily be opened when some event produces a flashback even if it’s just for a moment. Yet over time and with coping mechanisms that include physical activities, counseling and faith they will never bleed as they once did. If you can take that traumatic event and some how allow it do to good for others that are suffering then maybe that’s the closure which will allow that scar to have a beauty mark right in the center.
The ability to grin & walk away is one of the great keys to success and/or peace. We all know you have to pick your battles but you also have to decide which battles to even pay attention to, or let them flow from one ear out the other. Guilt used to hold me back in trying to defend myself but understanding you can’t make some people happy most of the time helps me loosen up. There are just some people who want to pick up a stick everyday and you have to be the one to pick up a branch and wave it in your direction instead. Grin & walk away because sometimes the best defense is just a few feet in the opposite direction.
Why did this happen to me? The Doctor is supposed to make you feel better and now I just feel as if I’m an upside down ice cream cone unable to lick. What did I do to deserve this fate. Mom says I’ll have this off in know time but I missing the time of my life now, including sniffing butt time. If this is so good for me why doesn’t the doctor put one on his own neck. Of course I know he was a doctor he was wearing a white jacket. Give me a break what do you think I have a bone for a brain, although I could go for one right now if I didn’t have this stupid cone around my neck. I thought I’d be the life of the Super Bowl party but now I just look like a clown dog which everyone will laugh at. It’s so unfair!
I believe the term extremist should be very carefully used because it could start unnecessary fires and silence speech but when the fire is burning you have to call it what it is “Extremist”. The left claims they’re all for free speech except if that speech melts their feelings then some act out in violent ways to eliminate such speech. These extremist that won’t allow the free exchange of different voices and even are willing to perpetuate violence against differing voices must be stopped. We are a country that should debate and discuss as we realize that words will never harm us but sticks and stones do hurt. Whether from the right or left let us realize now what extremist are and stop them. For they hurt the one common values we are supposed to have “freedom of speech”.
National Security Adviser, Michael Flynn has put Iran on notice for it’s provocative actions against world peace. In other words Iranian leaders this administration will retaliate if you continue to threaten your neighbors and world peace with action when and how it deems necessary. In the past you might have got away with such actions but there is a new Sheriff in town and he’s not afraid to defend his country and his allies. So Iranian leaders watch your back and front for if you act in a belligerent way you’ll never know when and how we will react.
I rarely watch game shows especially at night but for some reason last night I was drawn to “The Wall” and I couldn’t get over it. Maybe it was the pace of the action or the excitement of the contestants but whatever it was it had me glued to it as if I was about to win the $$’s. Here was a wall that we all good agree on… as being loads of light hearted fun.
*** “The Wall” – A good break from reality.
If only I had learned “Peter M Vishton’s” techniques for studying before I went to college I would have had hours more time to party. These techniques below were revealed to me in “Scientific Secrets for a Powerful Memory” part of The Great Courses selection which live up to their name a bit too late in my case. Here are a few of the key rules (below) and if you want more revelations buy the tape it will be a good investment in time and party.
(1) Agree to memorize certain facts and repeat those facts a certain amount of times. Start out with two or three times repeating this information. It doesn’t matter whether it be spelling words, geometric equations, historical facts etc this technique will work.
(2) Take a break for 1 hour.
(3) Test yourself you will have forgotten at least 1/2 the facts but once you start studying them again you will retain this information at a much faster pace. Test yourself as you did in step in.
(4) Take a break for 2 hours
(5) Repeat step 3 and you will see that you’ve retained a great deal of information but still pieces are missing. Studying time will be even faster and retention for the pieces that are still missing will be even greater.
(6) Take a 4 hour break
(7) Repeat step 3 and you’ll see an incredible learning and retention skill. Repeat this same process doubling or so the break time until you have the whole cake and the party can begin. I would recommend non-alcoholic party for alcohol destroys brain cells and/or memory.
I’m about to reveal some “Top Secret” information that will allow you to remember someone’s name past the moment they tell you. It’s top secret because I sorta enjoy having this new “Super Power” but will tell only my closest blog supporters. I must give credit to “Peter M Vishton” who has revealed these secrets to me in his tape “Scientific Secrets for a Powerful Memory” part of The Great Courses series. Here are a few key points (below)
(1) When you first learn the person’s name repeat it immediately to that person as much as you can. For example “Peter are you enjoying yourself? Peter do you what the weather is going to be like in the next few days?” Small talk can lead to step one in memorizing a name.
(2) Code that name. Give that name a picture that is phonetic to the name you’ve just learned. I used Shake for Shaun and still see her moving her body every time I think of her name. I also used tone for Tommy and this has also been a motivating force for my gym workout.
(3) Make sure you call their name or repeat it in your head the next time you see them.
