Manson is associated with "Helter Skelter," the term he took from the Beatles song of that name and construed as an apocalyptic race war the murders were putatively intended to precipitate. This connection with rock music linked him, from the beginning of his notoriety, with pop culture, in which he became an emblem of insanity, violence, and the macabre. Ultimately, the term was used as the title of the book that prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi wrote about the Manson murders.
Well for me, the curiosity of the man himself, "Charles Manson". And, tho I did like the original, I thought this version was 2x's as good. Jeremy Davies, did such a wonderful job and i think really sunk himself into the part. A good true crime story is always worth watching and watching again. This is not the only movie I feel this way about, but is the first one that came to mind. I think I saw it 9 times so far, and now I have to see it again.
this needs to friggin' introduction
It's not really an activity, and only somewhat a behavior, but spandex in most cases should be a law breaking offense, with a heavty fine.
Anyone caught wearing said material, would be subjected to a snapshot (to be used during trial), and given a $500 fine and court date. In court if found your spandex attire was unbecoming (and, this is where the photo comes into play), then you are immediately sentenced to community service and fashion classes.
This story was more than worthy of sharing, I really can’t think of anything even remotely close to this, unless we are talking about movies, and even then….whoa! It’s of a 30 year old Russian man accused of murdering 6, by use of a homemade electric chair. But the craziness didn’t stop there, Oh hell no it didn’t!
Dmitry K., the man in question, admitted to one of the murders, well okay they had evidence, fingerprints, that tied him to the murder, but the investigators are pretty sure he had gotten to the other 5 in question as well. Mr. K just isn’t admitting to those. However, he told investigators that if they could tie him to the killings, he would. He’s pretty bold isn’t he? If I were the police, or investigator in this case, I would lie and make up evidence then get him to admit, though I’m sure this is not legally used in the court system, huh? How did all this take place? Let’s see… Read the rest of this entry »
I thought it would be fun to do a post about mwha. Stuff that I rarely show or let in on. My fears, quirks, and things that really piss me off. If you have read some of my stuff, you already know that I believe in reincarnation, the paranormal and think that the belief that God is our ruler is a load of crap.
My favorite color is Orange. My hair is orange (it’s not really red as people choose to call it), my purse is orange, if I had the money, my car would be orange, my dog would be orange, okay you get the idea. Oh yeah, and my bass guitar is Orange. Throughout my life I’ve had a few fav’s, but have never felt so strongly in a color as this. I’d have to say it suits my personality well. Fuck! I almost forgot, a while ago, I realized eating too many carrots over time makes your skin turn orange. Read the rest of this entry »
I’ve been interested in the Paranormal, since I was around 7 yrs old, when I had an encounter with a spirit or ghost. I know, most people will prolly be like yeah yeah, uhuh and so on, but it’s true, whether you choose to believe it or not. Keep in mind that just because you haven’t experienced something yourself, does not mean it’s not real. There are many things in life that are not completely explained by science, but are. I don’t think that science will ever be able to explain everything, because not everything is attainable by science. How bout your gut instinct. Feelings. Those De Ja vu instances. What about coincidences even. Have you ever thought why you have strong pulls towards certain things, that really have no connection to your upbringing or cliques? Why is that? Anyhow, back to the paranormal thing.
When I was 7ish, I was home alone with my brother, who was outside mowing the lawn. Read the rest of this entry »
I love dark art. It’s mysterious, horrific, macabre and somewhat disturbing. Okay, maybe a bit more than just somewhat disturbing. But in it’s own way (beauty is in the eyes of the beholder), it’s beautiful and mesmerizing. Some of the best dark art I have found has been over at Deviant Art. And, if you’ve never heard of it, it’s for all kinds of art, not just dark art, and not just pictures. Artists of all kinds submit their art for critiquing, and some for purchase, I urge you to check it out.
Way back when I was a little girl, is when I became drawn to horror. I think when I was first able to watch “The Exorcist”. Even though it scared me out of my skin, I just couldn’t get enough. I can remember after watching some horror flick, my dad went outside the house and knocked on my window. When I drew the curtain, he screamed…and, so did I. My mom was furious though…lol Since then, as I’ve grown I’ve become more and more drawn to the darkness. I didn’t discover dark art until about 7 years ago. Before then, I never knew it existed, all I knew was horror movies. Read the rest of this entry »
While I am currently watching something on the Da Vinci Code, on the History Channel, I decided to write this post. I was going to do it eventually, and figured now was a good time to do it. Firstly, I’d like to say that while these are my views and beliefs, I do not expect anyone else to follow along, and expect, as I hope you would as well, take it as my own and not be offended by it. I don’t deny others their own beliefs, views and/or ideas, neither should yourself – so there!
I do not have particular religion, I find common instances in many, but I would like to state that I do not believe in God, or I should say, I do not believe in God as other people view, God. Read the rest of this entry »
I earlier made a post about the Hitler action figure, the one I have to have, well I wondered how many other Action Figures I could find that I could also put on my list. So I did a search. I found some more, that were worth the buy. I absolutely adore strange and unusual things, it’s the way I’ve been since I can remember.
I went to Wikipedia on the history of the action figure and it states Read the rest of this entry »
Commercials these days are getting better, at least some of them are. The ones that have smart advertising agencies working for them, really know how to catch the consumer. With consumers all over watching their spending, it really takes a little something to clinch the buy. Times are hard, so (I think), it is important to sell your product with humor, because all the technical bull only goes so far, right? It’s boring and reminds us of some of our worst jr. high and high school teachers. Read the rest of this entry »
