So I'll keep this first one short and sweet.  I have a lot of things to say and I want to say...uh right them down.  It's like a blog journal if you will...the topics will be wide ranging so there will be no consistency whatsoever.  I'm passionate but pessimistic but faithful but cynical but humorous but kind but...I don't know where I was going with this....anyway, let's begin....

President Trump!

I'm sure there have been and there will be plenty of material, post, blogs, etc. about our new president, some people need an outlet to express how they feel.  I guess I'm no different but while other have outrage, despair, distress, and all those other feelings, I have hope.  I don't have hope in Trump, that's going to be a garbage can fire if ever there was one.  I have hope that American citizens learn their lesson, a lesson I'd thought they learned from 8 years of G.W. Bush.  Here are a few areas where my hope lies: 1. Americans began to realize they share their country with racist, bigots, elitist, and the like   When a man references almost all the characteristics that we say are un-american and he still gets 49 million votes, you have to start looking at the people who voted for him.  We hear about racial strife, treatment of women, social inequality, etc. but we treat it like it exist in other parts of the world.  These people have a complet...

This Superman Wonder Woman thing

So I like superhero movies and I've watched a lot of the cartoons and stuff like that.  Marvel easily has more established characters but DC has the big 3, Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.  They seem to inject those 3 or at least 2 of them in everything they do.  I really love their animated efforts from Under the Red Hood (the best one) to Young Justice.  But I've noticed that they don't seem to know what to do about Superman and Wonder Woman together.  They seem to really want to promote a relationship there which is news to avid fans because they have historically been linked to other people.  With Superman, it's always been Lois Lane and Wonder Woman has been about Steve Trevor.  This is how I've always known it to be from the original TV shows to the Christopher Reeves movies.  But now they seem to jump all over the place, I'll explain it in context: The Justice League  cartoon which later morphed into Justice League Unlimited was ...

MeToo? Part 2

That latest MeToo? post was written back in February and a lot has happen since then.  I am glad we are in the midst of this Supreme Court nomination because Brett Kavanaugh's situation gives me a little perspective. So when I was in 5th grade, I kissed a girl...now she didn't want to be kissed by me and she wasn't even aware that I wanted to kiss her.  I was so infatuated with this girl that one day after school, I was walking with her and when I saw my opening, I kissed her on the cheek and ran.  It was innocent enough in 5th grade but it would not be the end of my "growth".  In 8th grade, there was an incident when a girl wore what I thought was a very nice dress to school and we were friends....well friendly...so when I saw my opening, I touched her behind.  She moved away from my hand quickly and I remember feeling so conflicted....I was happy that I touched it but sad because she didn't seem to like it and surprised that I had the courage to do it and ...
