No bite this time, no cussing, no satire. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop has died at his home at the age of 50. Alot has been said about Michael over the years, most of it not so good. At his base, he was a musician, and he did have several songs that I actually enjoyed. The music world has lost one of it’s most prominent voices, and he will be missed.

Well, Obama bin Nadin is at it again. He has said that he will sign a new anti smoking bill into law. This bill will regulate almost all cigarette sales to adults only facilities (good idea) while banning all flavorings of the tobacco (bad idea). The flavorings include all the special Camel brands, as well as clove and other spices. Come the freak on!!!! It’s even including a ban on smokes advertised as “light” or “mild”. Sooooo all we are gonna be left with are freaking non-filter full flavors that no one can smoke. It is said that this bill will reduce the amount of adult smokers to five percent. Let me ask the presidential administration one very important question. WHAT FUCKING COUNTRY DO WE LIVE IN? RUSSIA???? Ok that was two questions. Either way, I now can’t believe I wasted a vote on this moron. Apparently he feels, like other government agencies do, that the adult age should be limited to those in power, and that the rest of us are babies to be coddled. When I turned 18, I was FREE to MAKE A CHOICE. Such is the advantage of living in a DEMOCRACY. At the age of 19, I CHOSE to begin smoking. Now, I guess I will be FORCED to quit. Hmmmm, something seems a little off kilter there. I thought a free society was created so the people could choose what they want, and not for their government to decide what is best. Sounds a little like Nazi Germany, if you ask me. Of course, this is just one fellow’s opinion. I could be wrong.

Well, the new Star Trek movie is out, and I still haven’t seen it. I have seen the new Night at the Museum, which was actually pretty good. My daughter wanted to see Up, which brings me to my latest rant. Why the hell do the theater people think they have to charge so much for movies? Up was being shown in 3-D, which jacked up the ticket price. WHAT???? It cost as much for both of us to see NATM as it would have for just me to see Up. That’s just plain ridiculous. I’m all for profit, and advancement in the arts, but in today’s economy, it’s not feasible to charge 13 bucks for one lousy movie ticket. I’ll wait til it hits the cheap theater, which costs a buck and a half a ticket! Sure, it’s a late run movie by then, and everyone’s already seen it. Hell, it might be on DVD by then. Guess what, I’ll have saved over ten bucks just by waiting. If that doesn’t work, I’ll just put it on my Netflix, and get it for basically nothing. Get a life, movie people. You don’t need to anally rape us everytime we want to see a big screen movie. Believe me, you’ll make money even at two bucks a ticket.
