The ever popular

" Hal Roach's Our Gang/ Li'l Rascals "

shorts had endured for three decades

and had employed over 200 child actors

that would be replaced when they

became too old to play their

respective parts ....

numerous many talent contests were

held and scouts looking for

replacements - even the studio of MGM

being bombarded by stage mothers

claiming their child to be the next big star

... and such was the case for

Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, and Shirley Temple

Although they were all tested for the parts,

they were all TURNED AWAY because they

were " not typical children " and did not fit the bill

The Road Warriors were probably the most dominating

and ground breaking tag team of the 1980s, ruling

Georgia Championship Wrestling and then going on to

become the top team in AWA and NWA. However,

Hawk and Animal's career in the WWF was not as wonderful.

One theory was that Vince wanted to bury the team

because they became huge without ever wrestling in

the WWF. This would not do for McMahon...

They started out hot, winning the tag team titles -

and that was when the tables were turned on them...

Paul Ellering and Rocco "the dummy" were brought in.

This was terrible. Hawk would soon leave the WWF after

a heated argument with Vince (to work primarily in Japan).

Animal soon followed.

In the late 1990s,

Hawk at one point had to do an angle where he had lots of

personal problems, having to act drunk a few times and

even attempting suicide. This was a crushing blow to a once

dominate tag team with legions of fans...

To add insult to injury, the WWF parodied the team a few months

after they exited the WWF. Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco came

out on 'WWF Raw' to the Road Warrior's theme song wearing spiked

shoulder pads and wearing Road Warrior designed face paint.

In a move that defies explanation...

A wrestler was hired to become

what would be "a cousin" to the

Von Erich family...

While the fans were still grieving

over the loss of the sons of Fritz,

this wrestler made his appearance

under the Fritz name to carry on the

tradition ....

This "gimmick" did not sit well with the

fans {understandably} as they considered

it in very poor taste...

The wrestler himself did not

stick to the

gimmick, told the truth and

left his arrangement--

BY THE VON ERICHS

I find it a little disparaging that the Christmas has

become all about greed and consumerism....

What has become of the true meaning to the holiday

One top selling series for the pc had the twin towers in an actual game...

A patch of the twin towers in the skyline of New York could be eliminated

if you flew your jetliner into it.... although it wasn't originally a part of the

game it was quite possible....

in fact, earlier in the game the pilots joke amongst themselves

{in reference to an earlier tragedy}

"John, you just about crashed into the Empire State Building!

.... Hey, that would be cool."

Based on espionage this pilot would have the main characters

discovering a deeper conspiracy beyond the faked death of one

of the cast. A cell of rogue US government intelligence men

has decided to execute Scenario 12-D, based on domestic

terrorism. The plan: take over a commercial jet by remote control

via the autopilot and send it crashing into an office building, with

the impact and fuel serving as a bomb.

This technology bore resemblance to a computer guidance

program called "Home Run," reported on 9-11 conspiracy

sites. Home Run was created in the 1970s under the Defense

Department's Advanced Projects Research Agency after a

series of terrorist hijackings of passenger jets. The project

would allow persons on the ground to take over a jet by remote

control by overriding the autopilot system.

The rationale by the TV show's "Overlord" and his men is that

the Cold War is over, and peace is not justifying more defense

spending. Fake a terrorist attempt, and any number of groups

will take responsibility. The president and Congress will quickly

react with increased funds for military needs. Reality, of course,

did give us Congress allocating more money for personnel, military

materiel and the "War on Terrorism."

The program echoed reality in too many incidences.

The jet took off from Boston, just like American Flight 11 and United

Airlines Flight 175, which ulimately struck the Trade Center. Even the

fuel capacity and low number of passengers were close.

A scary thought or reality television.....

In an effort to keep the "magic" from

losing it's luster

Disney had an added clause to the

Disneyland theme park

" No one is to be pronounced

dead within the park's walls "

At that time many carnivals and

other theme parks did not have many

of the safety requirements that are

standard today, and the accident rate

was quite catastrophic - not to mention the

fatality rate.

Disney decided that his park would be different

and that he could declare "Disneyland" a truly

safe haven for all families..

as such - any accident or fatality that DID occur

within the park would not go reported until that

person or persons were carried well beyond the

gate and OUTSIDE the property

Prior to 2001, Disney was not required to report

these incidents to any authority. As long as a

ride hadn't malfunctioned and as long as the

death pronouncement came at the hospital and

as long as the medical examiner determined the

death to be the result of a natural cause, there

was no news story.

That's not true today, but yet this policy still effects

Walt Disney World, Disney Land, Disney Cruise

Lines and millions and millions of visitors.

" no one has died in Disney Land... "

meaning that if Disney wasn't responsible,

it didn't happen -

and Disney's park remains "spotless"

We have a small dashund that has been spayed for awhile now,

but yet when she starts playing with our little male terrior, who

is still just a pup, she keeps trying to hump him..... is this normal behavior

Explain to me this -- over 90% of ghosts have been

described in detail in various garb from formal attire

to vintage clothing...

this makes absolutely no sense in the fact that clothes

are material goods that have no soul ... no life of it's

own than just mere fabric

Clothing cannot live or die...

in an etheral plain clothing would

still be a solid object

and even the lightest of silk would

just fall to the ground

so explain to me how could a ghost wear clothes?

I love the "food network" and gain 5 pounds everytime I watch it.....

but I shudder whenever I watch the cake-baking that is such a hit

{ Ace of Cakes, Food Challenge }

These top dollar cakes are not only man-handled {with no gloves} by

not one person, but several ---

are made with such foriegn objects as wood dowels and plastic tubing

and sit out in the open for not only several hours but days at a time as

they are being prepared .....

I cannot imagine that these cakes would still be quite edible

{much less hard and dry} and susceptible to food poisoning

Am I just seeing things or is elaborate cake-baking

not prone to the standards that cooking other food requires

Fred Phelps and his band of haters from the church

of Westboro is planning on picketting the procession

for Dio's funeral ..... This whole thing stems NOT by

them picketting against devil worship {which they

proclaim} but purely as a means to gain publicity for

themselves by means of controversy and in hopes of

gaining enough controversy for the media news in

which they can hold platform for their own agenda .....

Websites are calling for bikers, veterans, metalheads and

the whole metal community to show up for Dio's open

funeral to give support and to show Preacher Phelps his

congregation cannot match Dio's fans ... Which promises

to be many { as Dio considered himself not as a celebrity,

but one of his people }

Dio's widow has written on Dio's site

to please refrain from anyone showing

any aggression towards the picketters

and instead to ignore them .....

" They know not what they do "

btw: Dio was a catholic

and a born again christian ...

it was his grandmother that

gave him the sign which he

made famous

{ the sign was to ward off evil

demons, not to side with the devil }
