Those Damn Zombies!

 Man Punches Another After Accusing Him of Being a ‘Zombie’

From Fox News:

Iowa City police are investigating an early morning assault in which a man accused another of being a zombie, then punched him twice.

Police say the assault occurred at 1:17 a.m. Sunday at an Iowa City restaurant south of the University of Iowa campus.

A man was ordering food when he was approached by another man who called him a zombie, then hit him in the eye. When the victim tried to call police on his cell phone, the man punched him again, breaking his nose.

The man then ran out a back door.

The victim was taken by ambulance to a hospital.

Paranormal Activity Update & Saw VI Review

This is just a quick update about ‘Paranormal Activity’ – which I first watched online last night.

A buddy of mine and I decided to catch the theatrical version tonight down at the theater. The ending was a tad different compared to what was released online, and that one particular scene where Micah is thrown against the wall was left out of the online version, but none-the-less the movie still got to me. The audience was in full force tonight and some people we a bit on edge, including the guy sitting next to me. It’s not often a film can actually mess you up like this, but it succeeded, and I don’t recommend it for anyone weak of heart.

 Before we went to see PA tonight, we went to see the latest installment of the Saw franchise. So many questions were finally answered in this film, such as what was inside the box and what happens to Detective Hoffman after it’s discovered he’s the one carrying on the legacy of Jigsaw. There’s an interesting twist at the end with Hoffman and we’ll have to wait for Saw VII before that’s answered. I have the strangest feeling that this will all wrap back around to Dr. Gordon from the first film in the series. One never knows, but it’s my hunch.

Overall, this film was in the Top 3 in my book as the best in the series so far and definitely a HUGE improvement from Saw V.

Paranormal Activity

I just watched Paranormal Activity online for the first time. The movie for some reason hasn’t been released around here, so I had to improvise…

First of all, I have to say that this movie is the best I have ever seen as far as producing a basic, straightforward “haunted house” style story. There’s no gore, no special effects, no $40 million-per-movie actors, and no bullshit. It lives up to the hype as being one of the scariest movies of the decade in my opinion. It rivals ‘The Exorcist’ from the 1970’s and shows that a simple, low-budget film can still grip you as much as a film made for millions of dollars. It really makes you wonder what happens around you when you aren’t able to physically see what’s going on, like when you’re asleep. Millions of people have stories about encounters of some sort, ranging from a light turning on by itself  to possessions to other forms of activity as well. My father used to say “those people can’t ALL be crazy…” – and it’s true! This movie was well made and well marketed from the beginning considering the budget, and it’s by far a success.

After watching this film, it made me think of some of the things that I had gone through a few years back and how it could have turned out. Luckily, it never progressed that far, and a woman I had e-mail about the events (a paranormal researcher) was able to sort it out for us.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that. But, more of this than that!

Hey all!

I hope everyone is doing well lately! It’s been quite a while since I’ve made a ‘real’ post on here, so it’s time!

Let’s see…It’s definitely getting colder around here. Just about a week and a half ago we were in the mid 80’s still, but now we’re lucky if we break the 40 degree mark. It’s amazing how FAST it cools off here. In Maine, it’s nice because it’s a gradual decline…here it’s not so gradual, haha. We don’t have a real ‘Fall’ season – it goes from Summer to dead in no time at all. But, I survived last Winter here, so we’ll get through this one too!

Work is going pretty well. We’re still not very busy, but that’s alright I guess. We’ve had one new person come up from tech school and another on his way from Japan in the next few weeks as far as I’m told. Our manning is pretty low at the moment and we still have people who are going to be leaving within the next couple of months – so it’s going to be interesting to see how we squeeze by.

The last couple weeks I’ve been on a HUGE health kick. I’ve had absolutely nothing but water every day to drink, I don’t snack at all throughout the day and when I eat a meal, it’s usually tiny just to get me by. I’m just finishing my first bottle of Xenadrine Ultra, and I just ordered a bottle of Hydroxycut to finish out my 45 day program. Since I got here to the base I gained about 15-20 pounds, and I’m determined to lose it by the time I visit back home at the end of December. It’s not really noticeable, I’m still a skinny bag of bones, but I definitely belong back in the 145-155 pound range.

I think on Sunday, the new person in my office and I are going to Bismarck for the afternoon. I want to swing by Buckle and check out what they have for clothes for the New Years Eve party. Speaking of New Years, Mike and I can’t wait! This year I’m dragging his ass out with me for the celebration. This will be my 3rd year celebrating it at retro, assuming I make it back in time – but I think I will.

Well, I think that’s about it for now! I was trying to get a new video blog up last weekend but had no motivation to finish it, so maybe that’s what I’ll work on Saturday…? Who knows right now, haha! Oh, and one last thing – my procedure went well last week – the stitches are all out and everything is good!

Have a great day!

Yes, another one!

DJ Penetrate

Mike and I have gotten to know a guy out of Houston who DJ’s at some hot and popular nightclubs. He goes by DJ Penetrate and he’s pretty much the hottest on the scene in the Houston area.  He works at both the Roxy and Drink Houston which are pretty popular in the industry. He’s invited us to drop by sometime and check it out. He’s also willing to head up to Maine and perform some night for us in the future whenever we decide to organize something and get him booked up. Awesome guy all around and knows his music extremely well.

Check him out:

WOOHOO!

MIKE AND I GOT MUSIC FEATURED AT THE HOTTEST HOUSTON NIGHTCLUB!

DRINK HOUSTON – LIVE ON 104.1 KRBE – HOUSTON, TEXAS!

EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT!

Roxio

Today I went out and bought Roxio Creator 2009. I’ve been meaning to buy it now for a few months and I finally decided to give it a try. It’s importing all the music on my drive now, which is taking FOREVER!

I’m trying to type this after drinking a few beers…so bear with me if there are some typos, lol.

I’m doing bay orderly this week which means all I have to do for 7 days is clean the dorm. It gets me out of work, but quite honestly I’d rather be there instead. Oh well, we’ll get through it.

And, on the 7th I have some minor surgery coming up. The doctor just wants to take a mole off and check it out because he thought it looked “abnormal.” Again, we’ll make it through!

Livvi :)

Tell me the chorus doesn’t make you wanna just dance your ass off!

Trend Trend Go Away, Come on Back Another Day!

Alright, before anything else, let me just get this out point blank. The Jayden, Aiden, Hayden, etc…baby naming trend needs to end. I swear every baby named since like 2006 is named something like one of those. Talk about wearing out a trend!

Ok, phew…that’s over with!

I went to the Hospital today for an appointment I had. There’s a mole on my hip that I want to have removed, and the doctor agreed that it was “abnormal” looking to him. So, I’m going back on October 7th to get it taken off. No big deal I don’t think, but he’ll have it examined and tell me if it was serious or not when the results come back.

Work was good…went home a tad early ’cause there wasn’t a damn thing going on. I have the weekend off as usual.

I hope you all have a good weekend!

Your Captain Speaks – Here ‘Til 2012…By Mistake!

Hey all! Not too much happening tonight. I got out of work about 3 hours ago and I haven’t really been doing much since. I’m watching Family Fued right now on GSN and I spent some time browsing some older posts here on the blog. I have an interesting story about this blog…

So, last night I decided to go ahead and renew my domain name (yourcaptainspeaks.com) for one more year. Well, the PLAN at least was to only renew it for one more year…but that’s not exactly how it turned out. I went to Paypal and filled in all of my information and all that good stuff, then I clicked the “submit” button to send in my payment. Well, after about 2 minutes or so, a message came up saying “please print your receipt for future reference.” I had no receipt, and another message came up saying “transaction failed.” So, I looked over all of the information, and it was all correct, so I clicked “submit” once again. The same thing happened – the “print receipt” message and then the “failed” message. It was a tad confusing to say the least. So, to make sure the money didn’t actually come out of my account, I went and looked at my checking account balance and it came up as a $1.00 payment. The domain name is $5.00 and the domain mapping is $9.97 – so it should have been $14.97 total, not $1.00. So I went back to Paypal and it showed no transaction had been processed. So, once again I filled in all of the information, clicked “submit” and this time it just froze, so I clicked it once more and it said the transaction was successful. I thought I had finally gotten it to work. Well, it worked alright…3 times. I went to WordPress to make sure it extended my domain name until October 2010 – but instead it extended it until October 2012. Yep, three of the times I clicked “submit” it actually DID go through, but came up in error by mistake. So…$45.00 and a 3-year extension later…tada! So have no fear – Your Captain Speaks is here….until October 2012!

And the answer is…

It’s amazing how many people ask me these questions:

“So, does the Air Force allow you to go off base?”

“Are you allowed to wear regular clothes?”

“So, do you have to be back at a certain time every night?”

Answer:  What do you fucking think this is? Prison? It’s a job, like every other job – you work then you have free time…yep, contrary to the movies, that’s how it is.

On Picking Up Groupies…

Mike (11:49:55 PM): lmao

Huckabee for President – Early Start!

I want to get an early jump on voicing my opinions for the 2012 Presidential campaign. If topics like this bore you, feel free to skip this post.

We really need to get an honest GOP member back into the Oval Office. These last several months since the Democratic Party took the reigns have been absolutely horrendous. So many people were drawn to the false notion that a person can fix an entire country simply because his skin is of a different color. I don’t care what color my President is. Blue, Green, Black, Orange, Pink…I couldn’t care less. I think there are plenty of intelligent individuals of a different color who can step up and accomplish great things for our country. However, Obama just wasn’t the right choice for this time period. I like to compare it to impulse shopping. When you go into a store specifically to purchase something like toilet paper, but happen to walk by a gorgeous $150 watch along the way, sometimes you can’t help yourself in the excitement of the moment. You know you can’t afford it, but you’re drawn to it and you just have to have it, even though it might not be the best option for you. Same thing applies here – Obama wasn’t the best option for us as a nation, however, people were so caught up in the moment and the thought of having a black President, that they did a little impulse shopping of their own and couldn’t resist voting him in. They swore up and down that they were voting him in because of his leadership skills and ability to move the nation in a positive direction, but all the while they were just excited about having a black President.

This being said, if Obama is the face of the Democratic Party and little to nothing has been accomplished yet, I don’t want to see him in office for a second term. He’s shifted all of the blame to the Republicans for the economic mess. The irony in this, is that just about every spending bill passes through Congress before approval. Who controls Congress? Hmmm, it isn’t the Republicans! He pretty much slapped our military in the face by not supporting a ground-based missile defense system in Europe. He caved under the pressure of the Russian leadership to sweep the system under the carpet. We can’t have a President that won’t stand up to foreign leaders in the face of pressure. Last time I checked, we don’t belong under the command of rule of any other country, so we need to base our decisions on what we find is necessary and not what Russia finds is necessary.

I’m starting early and throwing my support behind Mike Huckabee once again. He hasn’t formally announced any plans to run in 2012 as of yet, however, he’s my guy the second he announces it. Phone calls, pamphlets, donations – whatever it takes, I’ll do it to make sure we get an honest man back in office. He represents every aspect of what the USA is and he’ll get the job done.

Gorilla Zoe – Echo

Unreal

Tonight I just feel like I’m in some sort of a weird dream. So many things tonight are just unreal and seem too good to be true.

I was able to talk to everyone at retro tonight. I called Pat and he passed the phone around to DJ Patti, Tia, Jeremy, Stephen, Jen and Angie and it was just so awesome to talk to them all for a few minutes. It transported me back to the old days, needless to say.

Work went extremely well considering the circumstances which I won’t go in to…but today was just so weirdly good that I can’t get over it.

There’s just one thing I hope works out…and if it does I’ll be ecstatic…if not, so be it…but I’ll keep my fingers crossed for it!

Jeremy and Jennifer!

Jeremy and Jennifer!

 

Tia!

Tia!

We Will Rock You!

Hello! This is the first time I’ve been home since last Thursday. Sarah came up for the weekend so I haven’t been around here at all.

It rained a couple of the days that she was up here, and then it was decent the other 2 days, so it was kinda of a hit-and-miss as far as the weather goes. Overall we had fun and kept busy for the most part, even though the lack of things to do up here made it difficult at times to plan.

I’m debating on grabbing a ticket for Wednesday night’s Shinedown concert downtown. I asked a friend about it earlier and she said she might go…but we’ll see. It’s so rare anyone comes up this far into ND…so we take what we can get, haha.

I worked today from 1:15pm until about 9:30. I was supposed to work until 11pm but I have to be back in for 6am, so they let me cut out a bit early tonight. Pretty good deal if you ask me!

A Bunch of Gobolly Goop

This week is all messed up. We’re doing an exercise on base which will take about 2 days or so (Wed and Thurs). It’s not that big of a deal but more like a pain in the ass to get ready for. I think I’m all set for it though and hopefully it goes somewhat smoothly.

Sarah gets here on Thursday afternoon around 4pm or so, as long as all goes well on the flights and they’re on-time. Unfortunately, I’ll have to run her to the hotel quickly and then book it back to the base for work at 6pm. It’s gonna be a hectic day but we’ll get through it!

The concert was amazing last Friday night! Man, those bands can still rock a place like you wouldn’t believe! I was gonna do a video blog on it but I posted all of the pictures already on Facebook and Myspace. I’ll post a few here too. I’d easily pay to see that show again. I didn’t wanna leave in the first place!

Styx

.38 Special

REO Speedwagon

Styx

 

Right now I’m watching the $100,000 Pyramid on GSN – I LOVE GSN!

Long Labor Day Weekend!

Ahh yes, it’s that time of the year again! Labor Day weekend! We almost had to work, but we ended up getting our extended weekend after all.

The weather has been absolutely gorgeous around here over the last couple of weeks. High 70’s to low 80’s most every day. Not too hot, not too cold – so take that, Katy Perry!

Tomorrow night is the Styx, REO Speedwagon and .38 Special concert in Bismarck! I’ve got my camera all charged and my ticket ready to go! I’ ve just gotta stop and gas up before I hit the road tomorrow. I’ll probably head out around 2 or so, get there by 4:30 – 5:00 and then be assured of a place to park. The show begins at 7! I can’t wait!

This weekend I’ll post an update about the concert and try to think of something else interesting to tell ya about. Until then, later gators!

Something I got at work recently…

Random Thoughts of the Day:

I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option.

More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can
think about is that I can’t wait for them to finish so that I can tell
my own story that’s not only better, but also more directly involves
me.

Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you
realize you’re wrong.

I don’t understand the purpose of the line, “I don’t need to drink to
have fun.” Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and
sticks when they’ve invented the lighter?

Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you’re
going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to
be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the
direction from which you came, you have to first do something like
check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to
yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you’re
crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.

I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was
younger.

The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This
recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will never
be ending a work email with the phrase “Regards” again.

There is a great need for a sarcasm font.

It Just Never Ends!

Mix 107.9 and Maine :)

First of all, I completely forgot that most radio stations stream live online these days, and I remembered a station I used to listen too all the time back in Maine called Mix 107.9 – well, I found it online and I’m in music heaven! That was the bright point of my evening last night, and tonight I’ve got it cranked again. So, now that I’ve mentioned this, I feel much better…

This week at work has been absolutely weirdly completely strange. Not bad by any means, just strange. You would think we’re working on Mars or something, seriously. I don’t know, I love my job, but god it’s weird, haha. That’s about all I can say at this point in time.

After much thought, and tons of mind-changes, I’ve finally decided that December 30th until January 11th is when I’m going to TRY to get leave to get back home to my family and friends for a visit. It won’t be the same – Jeff is moving to Vegas in a few short weeks, and some others have since left, but it’ll be a good time. I can’t even tell you how excited I am at the thought of going dancing with the crew again at Champion’s and the Blues Club. Only a few months…

Not much else is really happening around here. Nothing important anyway. Thanks for checking in!

Obama Administration: This Can’t Be Good

We’ve all had PLENTY of opportunities by this point to see how Obama is going to run his administration. For me personally, all hope is gone for the majority of his promises stated during the campaign into office to be carried out and fulfilled. Taxes will surely go up one way or another, this is a fact.

The Democratic side of the health care debate is a total joke. The Senators and Representatives fielding question at the town hall meetings can’t even hold their own. They’ve gone into 95% of the debates and meetings unprepared for the backlash received. Arlen Spector, a Democrat out of Pennsylvania, is the biggest joke of them all. Have you been unlucky enough to catch any of his town hall style conferences? The guy can’t take the heat when it comes to the serious concerns presented by residents on the topic. How can someone like this be an effective leader? A few days ago, he fielded 30 questions on live TV at a town hall meeting, and I’d say 15 of them he never responded too; instead he said, “next question please.” No, let’s NOT go to the “next question” – let’s stay on this one and see how much information you’re lacking on the subject. Let’s see how much you HAVE NOT read in the proposed bill, and let’s all see why you shouldn’t be voted into another term in office.

Want another joke? How about Nancy Pelosi. Sure, congress is hell-bent on helping in any way, shape or form to cut the deficit, but that doesn’t mean they won’t stop trying to get four luxury business/personal travel jets custom made by Boeing! Are you kidding me? Nancy Pelosi is a stuck-up, egotistical political wannabe who let’s her girlish emotions get in the way of her career. I’d hate to be married to that bitch, because I’m sure she wears the pants in the family, and her husband would have to wear the tights.

President Obama’s administration is severely diseased. The cancer surrounding it needs to be zapped with a large dose of radiation. We need to remove the Specter and Pelosi tumors and give the heart a nice transplant with some GOP surgeons heading up the procedure.

How about John Edwards? Extra-marital affairs, babies scattered around the country that even HE doesn’t know about, constant lying to his family – awesome morals there, wouldn’t you say?

Since World War II, and possibly the beginning of the 1960’s with JFK, the Democratic party has never been one to lead, let alone successfully. It’s been almost 50 years since they’ve been in the practice of leading successfully. As you can tell, this much time away can cause a person, or in this case an entire party, to become rusty at it. The Democrats have been out of practice for too long, and may not be able to gain the ability to lead during this administration again. After all, you’re only as good as the person setting the example for you…

New Book

I bought this new book today at Barnes and Noble called “11:11 – the Time Prompt Phenomenon.” This is the first time they’ve had a book of this subject in-store. And what was on the reciept…? Take a look:
