With the second Transformers movie set to hit the screen this month. The movie stars of the film tend to get lots of attention. In a resent interview with the London Daily Mirror, young big screen starlet, and internet hottie, Megan Fox, had this to say (quoting),
" The "Transformers" bombshell-cum-uninhibited philosophizer also contemplates -- reluctantly -- what she would say to Megatron to keep him from destroying the world. "I'd barter with him," she muses to the July issue Total Film UK, "and say instead of the entire planet, can you just take out all of the white trash, hillbilly, anti-gay, super bible-beating people in Middle America?"
That remark to me was insulting. And maybe she was just being siily for the interview, but don't you think that since it's the majority of "Middle America" that pays to see the movies that Hollywood puts out, that she would have "thought" that her words were insulting? Personally I consider "Middle America" all the land between New York City, and Los Angeles. When will these young stupid people ever learn to keep the mouths shut? Her ignorant remarks toward the good people of this great country won't go unforgotten by any means. Although I don't like promoting Hollywood when they stick their foot in their mouth, I do like keeping a promise to my bestest 12 year old buddy and take him to see the movie when it comes out. Maybe she will get some good feedback about what she said and learn to bite her tongue next time? No, I doubt it.....
The One (1) Question Test
This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.
The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.
Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.
THE SITUATION:
You are in Florida, Miami to be specific. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless. You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
===============================================
THE TEST:
Suddenly you see a man and a woman in the water. They are fighting for their lives, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer.. Somehow they look familiar. You suddenly realize who they are. It's Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi!! At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take them under forever. You have two options: You can save their lives or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the deaths of two of the world's most powerful people.
=============================================
THE QUESTION:
Here's the question, and please give an honest answer...
Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white? 
Since I have been hunting. It's been tradition to take pictures of the kill and be happy with one or two pictures to share with friends and family. Now since that the new age of digital is has made picture taking and video recording absolutely easy even for the lesser camera savy amoungst us. Now I not stupid about digital cameras. My experience with digital cameras goes back about 5 years now, but recording movies with my Hi8 video tape has become old technology. So I need advice when it comes to best brand, best feature, most bag for the money. Now, I don't need advice for a one to five grand broadcast video camera. I'm not looking to create my own hunting show, as if we need another one out there. I just want something that is digital recording, and has a price tag under a thousand bucks. It has to be user friendly (so even my wife can operate it)....she's gonna kill me for saying that ...lol. I'd like it to be SD memmory compatible so I can upload my hunts to Camospace for sharing. And, I need it to work in low light, simular to deep woods hunting. So come one come all. Lend me your advice and recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate it.

With all the hoopla surrounding todays swearing in. I wonder if things will change. Nope.....they won't. Things will most likely take a down turn towards worse. But, because this mans skin color is black, he will not face the real world as we know it. We have been front loaded with all that this man wants to do. Should we turn our backs towards the differences or should we hold true to our core beliefs and hope he trips up? Personally I know what he has in store for us as Americans and as hunters, and gun owners. I'm here to tell you it's not good. So my new slogun, if you will, is "I hope he fails". Bumper stickers anyone?
Given the success of In-line muzzleloaders as of late. I beg to ask why in my home state of Pennsylvania we still have to shoot Flintlocks during the muzzleloading season. Tradition? Perhaps. Fairness, I don't think so. If that were the case we shouldn't even have a regular rifle season. My guess would be a group of hardcore traditonalists in this state bending the ear of the State Game Commission and getting their way. Personally, if a hunter wants to hunt muzzleloader let him or her pick the style of muzzleloader to shoot. I'm sure we won't loose the traditionalists is the process, and we may even gain more muzzleloading hunters.

Well like most of us here the conservative base is POed! I for one am assamed to admitt I'm from Pennsylvania. I live in one of the most heavily populated states that has more hunters taking to the field on the first day of rifled deer season then any other state in the union. But yet, to see the poll results. It was as if we all stayed home voting day. Some say we shouldn't be so single minded when it comes to political issues, but I disagree. We live by the Constitution, and apparently some of these misguided voters don't. Checking the results of yesterdays joke of election. The 18 to 30 year olds gave their soles to the Man running on the Democratic ticket. What did this man bring to the party? Nothing. Hope? Hope for what? Change? I have a few thoughts about that but, it won't be shared here. For those of you that voted for this man. I pitty you. You will be so disappointed. For those of you smart enough to overlook the failings of our current administration and vote with a sound mind. God bless you. We may have lost this battle, but our work is far from over. For the next four years our rights as free Americans will be under attack. If you don't act and be part of the war again our freedoms, then kindly stand in line with the idiots that put us here. This is a wake up call. AGAIN! It was handed to us when the Clintons came to town...remember? And we gave him 8 years to mess it up. Lets not go down that path again and disappoint our forefathers. Lets remind the new socialist we the people are in charge.
