How do you see everyday heroes

Yo Ho All,
Can I ask you a simple question or at least hopefully it is one when you find the answer?, Do you know someone that is a everyday hero, by this I don't mean a fellow like above saving the air liner he is on by webbing up the hole in the side of it caused by another hero?, here are the type of everyday heroes I'm referring to: A FIRE MAN, (if you need any help in determining "IF" they are everyday heroes look at a certain date known as 9/11. Who else is a everyday hero even when we do bad or even horrible acts against one another, would the answer there be a police officer. Are doctors everyday heroes who also save our lives when we are hurt just as much as firemen do when saving you from a building on fire! Yes it is so very true that all of these professions and the people who are part of them deserve a lot of thanks for their everyday service to us, and so do many other everyday type of heroes like branches of the militarily for keeping us all safe in times of a national disaster.

To me a everyday hero is this, yet also so much more too, I believe we all have helped a elder person at one time or another across the street. We can all be heroes by giving blood to the RED CROSS or help a homeless person by giving them a meal at any given holiday. Just remember a hero DOESN'T NEED ANY SUPER POWERS to be heroic all that HE or SHE needs really is a caring heart to help that matters most of all!

Starting to look for Fire works for Amreica's Brithday a few days early


Hey All fire worker hunters listen up,
It will before you know it be time for the white stars of the night sky will be having some if you beg the fanciness of wording "some very fiery competitive sharing a few nights from now." I still just can't believe that I myself haven't found anytime over this earlier week to even think of buying any of those extra lights for our country's BIG BIRTHDAY BASH known as fireworks. Still I can't say I'm without a firework tent being a whole world or even a universe away, when just behind me here at where I work is a BIG colorful or rather plain ordinary place

where such loud noise but still colorful explosives are sold. Let me if you don't mind showing you a few of these
,, ,
,like anyone who shells out money for these things I do take a few things to heart knowing already that my brother and his inlaws will have far more than is needed for any kind of a great FIERY
show come the day known as Independence Day. I do hope when it has come I will have had a decision on my choice of these or others around our area. Also a Happy Birthday wish to you and yours if you can't lite off your own go to a great firework show in your home town to celebrate our grand ol USA a mighty two hundredth and sixth party of OUR FREEDOM of choice to living life to it's hopeful fullness for everyone.

Into my well of ideas or at least possible ones anyway!


Creative Minds are present I sure do hope so because I want to share a few ideas I have running around in my head of late. For a while even though I haven't finished my "Clone of Me" story yet I plan to someday just when is unknown as of yet?, I as you all know have just started reading the book called The Artist Way I'm still just getting my feet wet with it as of yet you all can see where I posted about the very book I am talking about a few weeks ago. Well before starting the book I already have had a few story titles running around in my noggin and I wish to share them with you all. If you don't mind that is?, if you do mind just read on anyhoo because you may find something you like in these thoughts and you may get a giggle or two out of hearing these. I have been thinking a whole bunch on how we have always been so wasteful in everyday things we do and how we never seem to care about the true place we call home, our big beautiful planet known as earth. In a story idea I have called "IONIZED PLANET" I'm thinking along the lines of space being consumed by something extraterrestrial yet whomever these beings are don't care about wanting anything all near them for they live in a utopia and the smallest bit of whatever can upset the balance of everything in the whole of any universe.... Here is another idea I have something about RAINBOWS at midnight. I have a couple of thoughts on this here is my main one it's about a race to save something what I haven't figured out just yet? I as you know keep thinking about many different ways All Colors reflex parts of our daily lives when we do see such a thing as a RAINBOW. I also have a title only piece called "Wellness of wishful thoughts, of you" .

The Importance of Reading


I was thinking of what to call this posting title this morning?, when I was getting ready to going to church today and thing that stuck out the most was books in someway?, then it hit me like a sledge hammer. What makes the importance of understanding a book so needful? the answer is that someone who wants to understand any kind of form of literature must be able to read. So where do we as as society get the main tools to understanding of letters of the alphabet even before going to school?, we as children very young want to usually do something to occupy our brains with any or every thing considered fun. Like playing board games, or pretending to be a animal of the zoo (this was one of the many things I remember well from when I was a kid, when our next door neighbor was the baby sitter), Or most likely for children today it's either entertain yourself with the boob tube or the computer which I myself have to say is okay I guess but how do children use the thinking part of the brain called the imagination.

Most children who are very young may see mama or dada with a newspaper during the week and want to say at breakfast that they want it instead of their baby food and more parents just assume that they may just scribble on it with a crayon or a pen, so they give the kid a piece play duo of which will hopefully calm them down so that the parent can have a moments peace. Or perhaps a chew toy or their night time friend....still how are we to know what child wants when they cannot speak yet. So maybe the child finds a book one night before bed and wants us the parent to read it to them. Really and truly we do learn a lot as we grow into little people as we continue to grow we want to learn more about our history about our world and about ourselves as well, the best way for the latter is ask your parents to share with you something that they remember from when they were your age. As for the first part to learn about history we must know how letters make words and say them many times over till we understand there meanings, and that is the best way that I know how best to describe the importance of reading......

Cool Desert Nights of MMX ,try figuring this one out if you can pt.IV


Hey Car watchers watch this and please tell me what you think of this car show,

Here comes the Third day of two thousand and ten's "COOL DESERT NIGHTS"an
d last night to make things easier on planning to be on this side of town, I just spent the night at my friend Jeff's house and what best about that is he lives just behind Jefferson park
where all those Cool cars are displayed. I was able to call my brother Micheal on the walk to where activities where happening to see if I could meet up with him and his crew, I had found out they were there for an hour already but still were happy to see a bit of the show with me. After looking at various cars ,,
,
with me they had things to do, (and here's my niece Heidi looking at her favorite the Doloran

that she and her brother Cannon were standing in front of last year) so I went and stood in this most famous line for my share of pancakes, ("Hey what about you low sodium diet your suppose to be on your asking right?, well I do promise after a taste of these , I WILL start without anymore hesitation! I promise myself mostly"). After my Pancake breakfast I went walked across the street to the Uptown paracade to look at all the other cars on that side,,,,
which was pretty cool since I also saw this very rare ONE of two existing bicycles

from the 1880's. You wanna know if I'm lying about that here's the sign
to prove it's autistic. After going through the park side again I had happen to see what was called "The slow drag", where fast cars from any decade had to go as slow as they could along a water hose at the final part of this very race. here are a couple cars trying it out ,, as I was watching this I hope you Spidey fans are ready for this I saw a young kid that had one of the best Spidey shirts I have happen to seen this whole year. Here he is with his mother
getting a snowcone while watching "The Slow Drag" race. As to the answer what MMX stands for is of course two thousand and ten, if you were wanting the easy way out of getting the title to this very posting figured out!

Cool Desert Nights Pt.3: Two thousand ten


Hey all,
It's that roaring time again this year for Cars, and showing off one's muster in COOLNESS in your tricked out car in the annual summer car show known here in Richland, Washington as "COOL DESSERT NIGHTS" . It is a three day event held every June, just after "Father's Day" weekend, which is on the starting night a show and shine is held on the backside of Uptown at Dairy Queen, I can't remember the last time I was able to see the whole show in it's entirety for before that there is a slow race around George Washington way the main street in the central part of town. If I were to tell you of the last time, (I do remember going for the whole show it was that I can't recall it all that well for I seem to remember seeing a really and I DO MEAN THIS REALLY BBBBBBAAAAAAAADDDDDDD movie that put me to sleep in the matter of it's opening few minutes. Yet I can't put all the blame on the movie's title which was "HULK" and you all know how I love Super hero movies regardless of what, but that night I was SUPER TRIED from working out in the hot heat from the sun at my place of work, still through that movie DID pale in comparison to any movie I had ever seen, expect one (someday I may tell you what movie is the most boring ever to me anyhow). Today is Friday and here are some parts of those COOL cars,,,
,in there second day of racing for this year which started around six forty fivish and lasted till nine pm. One car I most certainly can never refuse to have a little lime light to would be this one

,better known as the GENERAL LEE which was part owned by a couple of boys named Duke. Now just so you know those two boys aren't driving it today so I wonder who stole their race car, don't you do too? All in all watching till the sunset was pretty cool of this very race because it was still going long after since in the summer time of year the sun goes down later and those COOL CARS of course proved that

they can shine on in the end anyhoo..also there were some cycling hoggs

that joined in before it was all over.

Gronding the superhero who flys... say what?


Hey WHO is Matt talking about which hero could possibility be "GROUNDED"of comic superheroes that fly is it Iron Man as seen above as a Mister Peter Parker pulls away the first class curtain could be right? Or is it Green Lantern who experiencing something called BRIGHTEST DAY after just having his own BLACKTEST NIGHT, I'm not sure but it could be this one? maybe it could be the feminist heroin seen here, well in the comics she can fly without her invisible plane just like the one guy who can never be beaten called Kal-La?, who is that your wondering? well here's a BIG clue to help you out the late actor Christoper Revees played him four times in the role of Clark Kent. Yes that is right Detective Comics the publisher of great superheroes mention above with exception to Spidey and Shellhead a nickname for IRON MAN is "Grounding the man of steel" in his upcoming comic storyline. Hollywood film writer turned comic scribe by a certain editor in chief at D.C.'s competitor, Do I have to bring up the man whom has killed Spider-Man comics for millions of fans by name NO I DON'T AND I WON'T and will leave it at that, yet as I was trying to say before he brought JMS better known as J.Micheal Straczynski into the four color world known as comics with this very issue of and Straczynski truly you read it here first WANTED his name removed from the final arc of "One More Day" after all the trouble he went to to get Pete & Mary Jane back together again just a few years before OMD for the fans. He left Marvel and went to work on the Claudetta of all superheroes seen here . As to what he he means by "grounded" is that instead of being able to fly to where any given trouble is taking place Superman will use his feet to get to where he is to be by walking across the united states and getting to know the ones he helps. For according to recent comic lore he has returned from Krypton with out his greatest of ease power and he sees how we see him for just helping humans. Last week in our local paper's entertainment guide called "Atomic Times" better known as "AT" here's it's cover, had happen to have a article about this new venture for the man of steel

,as you can see it will start with him walking from Pennsylvania to various parts of different cities of many states. The one big thing I had seen in a copy of USA TODAY from even a week before seeing this was Detective Comics had a letter writing campaign to have Superman come to your own home town in his upcoming storyline entitled "GROUNDED" which will be starting in ACTION COMICS # 701. Just to see what all of the hub bub is about I think I will be picking up this issue just to see what ol Superman is about from this very tale. For whatever it truly is about, it seems like a peeking interest in getting people to love Superman as a flesh and blood human being or as a hero again, I hope for D.C.'s gamble it will pay up in spades......so here's hopping?

McFarlane VS Quesada whose better with the character known as the Web head?


I happen to be thinking with the character of Peter Parker and his alter ego Spider-Man the biggest cash cow of Marvel Comics sinking for the past two and half years, something by a fan of the character has to be done to make things and by that I do mean "ALL Things Spider-man RIGHT!" (I have another post about how I want to fix that Said Problem and believe me I think it would work on two fronts see it here in "A Comic story needing to be told"), for now though I want to compare two men who have worked on the Web Wonder known as Spider-Man. One man I have met at a few times in the past at a comic con or two his name is Todd McFarlane. He worked on the art of the AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Vol.1 from issue #298 to 328 with only cover art for issue #324. Todd was wanting to write along with being an illustrator as well or he and six other artist were going to leave Marvel's employment for a chance to do their own stuff. The other six artists were Jim Lee who worked at the time on X-MEN titles with writer Chris Clairmont here is some of his work from back in 1990:
then there was Rob Liefeild (who to me was a copy cat of Todd who work on the then New Mutants & X-Force titles (the NEW Mutants title seen here is the first appearance of the NOW overused comic character DEADPOOL:
) there was also Erik Larsen who was a filler artist on most of Marvel's "BIG NAMED" titles. Erik became most popular by filling in for McFarlane on his Spidey stuff before joining this team of independent creators. That's three so far including McFarlane whom were starting this company and they are they main four of these seven that I know in someway but here is a group shot

of all seven creators that I found in a recent

,which the first cover as you can see was by Toddy as comic fans nicknamed McFarlane, Todd was able to get to please the spider-fans, one last time before leaving Marvel in February of 1992, when Marvel let him actually write, and do the art in his own stories of the non adjective less titled: which sold over one million copies of the issue seen here. Todd wrote two five parters and one two parter before as I said left Marvel's employment in fact here is his last comic cover and story of that series. Todd now does his own created comic character called SPAWN,
which I love just as much as the webhead because it is by McFarlane for McFarlane fans which is great! Now let's bring fourth the main destroyer of Spider-Man and I know that I am NOT the only one who thinks so his name is Joe Quesada. Now before I get going I must admit I have NEVER MET Quesada, yet when Marvel found itself in bankruptcy in late 1996 through 2000 Quesada had helped by bringing in new writers and artists for the floundering comic giant. With his book titled MK which stood for Marvel Knights with fellow comic creator Jim Palmiotti who was his independent partner, when they worked for themselves under the imprint "EVENT COMICS". Which was started in 1994 and ended in 2000 when Marvel contracted them for artists on the aforementioned Marvel Knights comic title, it was in September 2000 that Quesada was appointed Marvel's EIC which stands for Editor in Chief . At first when Quesada became EIC he left much everything as it was for all characters including Spidey. (Which was a good thing considering what happen a whole year later on the eleventh of September), let's now jump seven years ahead in time two great SPIDER-MAN films were made by Sony productions and Marvel itself was gearing up for promoting SPIDER-MAN 3, in the comics with a storyline titled "BACK IN BLACK" which featured the return of Spidey in his Black and White threads ,which were last seen in a HEAVY WAVE back when a fellow called McFarlane drew the comic icon in the late eighties. It was by the way Marvel's NOT SONY'S choice to have the third installment have the Black suit in the movie. Now the worst was yet to come for Spider-Man and it is really Quesada whose to blame for it ALL. He wanted kids to be able to relate to the Wall Crawler again, but felt the couldn't and why was this? it was because the character was "OLD" to relate to so what should they do Quesada DECIDED that there was only one way to make him relate able to children again take away over twenty one years of history and erase this! The character of Spider-Man/Peter Parker had been Married to Mary Jane Watson since June 1987.Which they did with a story titled OMD (One More Day)! Was there a Backlash IF this were to have happen to the comic icon everyman could relate to? Well here is the very answer it is STILL GOING ON TODAY OVER THREE YEARS LATER! Will Spidey or Peter ever regain a strong readership every again? I DON'T KNOW, but I DO know that this
is how McFarlane would have handled the debate over whether Spidey should be a true everyman hero relating to marriage. Giving fans a sense of hope in anything you do, whether your a superhero or not!
