Maxwell’s Restaurant - Gatlinburg 2008-03-05 14:24:54 Maxwell’s Restaurant - Gatlinburg, Tennessee
Maxwell’s Restaurant is located right on the Parkway in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Being in the mood for something different to eat, we ventured in and were greeted by a huge fish tank with apparently our dinner swimming inside. We were met by the hostess and seated right away. (Not a good sign [...] Read more:Maxwell
Nun Punishment 2008-03-04 00:42:42 Sister Gemma Massey, disciplining a careless student caught passing notes in second period religion class. The penalty, of course was torture followed by death by belt hanging.
Perhaps nun punishment wasn’t quite so harsh as depicted above, but to be fair, the nuns didn’t look anything like the sexy Gemma Massey, the international model portraying the [...] Read more:Punishment
Last Ride On The Blue Streak 2008-03-03 00:13:53 The Blue Streak
Roller Coaster
Sadly, the Blue Streak coaster along with the entire Conneaut lake Park is in peril of being closed for good due to some unfortunate luck in late 2007 and early 2008.
In 2007, the park could not open due to insurance issues and some disputes over ownership. However, the park officials [...]

Starbucks Coffee Addiction 2008-02-29 18:40:55 A Starbucks
Addiction Of Giant Alien Proportions
A Grassy Knoll Institute operative described the scene outside a Manhattan, New York Starbucks coffee shop as total bedlum as giant aliens caused a panic and nearly a riot.
In their quest to take over the world, Giant Aliens paused a few moments for a steaming hot cup of coffee. [...] Read more:Coffee
Lost Update - Time Warp 2008-02-28 22:28:49 Lost Update
Season IV 02/28/2008
It’s astounding, time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll
But listen closely, not for very much longer
I’ve got to keep control
I remember doing the TIme Warp
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling
Let’s do the time warp again…
Let’s do the time warp again!
Tonight’s episode centers around the [...]
Idora Park Entrance Sign 2008-02-27 07:21:49 This was the Idora Amusement Park entrance sign just off of Canfield Road in Youngstown, Ohio. It stood proud and tall for many years. Even years after the park closed in 1984.
A polka festival was the last advertised event at Idora Park. I can see remember the yellow blinking lights and the blue background announcing [...]
Triple Dog Dared 2008-02-26 11:44:16 Apparently Inga never watched the classic holiday film, A Christmas Story. Otherwise, she would have known what happens when she sticks her tongue onto a pole.
Perhaps Inga was Triple
dogged Dared much like Flick was in the movie and couldn’t resist the challenge.

Old Mill Restaurant - Gatlinburg 2008-02-25 07:39:46 Old Mill Restaurant - Gatlinburg, Tennessee
I have been going to Gatlinburg for over 20 years and finally stopped for dinner at the Old Mill. I had heard good things about the Mill, good food, good service, fair prices.
Being November, of course this was a 20-30 minute for a table, but no problem, the air that [...]

I am he as you are he as you are me

See how they run like pigs from a gun,

Sitting on a cornflake,
waiting for the van to come.

stupid bloody Tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy,

Rock Face Monument 2008-02-19 22:58:59 Giant Alien Monument
In the foothills of Montana, Giant Aliens carved out their likeness much like the rock face on Mount Rushmore.
This rock face was carved in the evening and took less than four hours to complete. The alien technology has to be amazing to complete such a task as this. But, the question remains, are [...]
Hungry Howie’s Calzone 2008-02-18 23:03:54 A new fast food delivery restaurant opened up in Youngstown recently. It looked like a typical pizza joint place, and being the blue plate special king, decided to try them out.

Blue Streak Conneaut Closes 2008-02-17 20:04:05 The Blue Streak
roller coaster located in Conneaut Lake Park has now officially been placed on the endangered species list.
The amusement park was closed in 2007 for lack of operating funds and insurance and just last week a fire broke out and damaged a portion of the midway and the dance hall. Several rides were [...]
The Bug Light God 2008-03-12 08:07:46 The year was 1980. A new decade and a new job. I was 20 years old and was one step into a sojourn that would last several years.
As the days got longer and turned into night, us warehouse workers, like moths to a flame, would gravitate toward the almighty bug light. Looking for inner peace, [...]

Showing Their Mettle 2008-03-10 22:19:20 Giant Alien Tears Down Oil Filed In Siberia, Russia.
Giant Aliens landed in the cold isolated land of Siberia looking to damage oil wells that pump life into the Soviet Union. Ten fields and plants were destroyed until the aliens boarded their mother ship and escaped.
This new tactic clearly demonstrates that the giant aliens are attempting [...]
Ice Station Wrangler 2008-03-09 21:05:25 Last Friday, March 7th, I made my way to the Cleveland airport for my trip to Las Vegas, Nevada to attend the ASD/AMD trade show. The temperature was in the high 20’s and it was raining and sleeting the entire 85 mile trip to the airport.

Triple Dog Dare 2008-03-08 12:40:09 Triple Dog Dared!
Great Christmas gift. Really slow in adding it to the Institute, but I am committed to getting everything up to date. (Someday anyway!)
Make sure your speakers are turned up. (No, a scary monster won’t jump out at you. It’s just so you can hear the dialog.)
Enjoy.

I can’t light no more of your darkness

I’m growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning [...]

I Can Read Your Mind 2008-03-16 15:50:45 We Irish folks are a mystical and magical bunch. Many of us have the capability to read people’s minds. Ahh, I can sense some skepticism from my readers. See, it’s working already. I suppose I will have to prove my mind reading abilities with a test.
