Talk about meanful punches when you don't see one of these coming......

Hello everyone,
  You know there are given times when a blog can at times just write itself from nothing at the ground up portion or bottom for that matter either, and well today is most assuredly one of those kind of topics, for sure. For whatever reason even though it is of course the weekend and a person usually finds it rather easy to relax by staying up to the wee hours of the morning when you don't have to work the next day because it is your weekend let me tell you this not every weekend can be a bed of easy comfort as I found this very morning, you can't expect your Sunday morning to be a waking nightmare for the rest of your forthcoming week and boy was set it REALLY in stone like that for me......... .  I found myself for some reason or other needing to watch the first season of "ARROW" which I had got last summer when I had bought the Mary Jane teen novel. So at a little after elven last night I started it from the pilot of the series and watched the whole first disc out of five so I could be on top of my game when my copy of season two comes out which is released on 9/16/2014 in the united states as I know it, any way I was up till four in the morning before deciding it was time for sleep. It was right at the time of this very posting time that my phone work me up. It was my mother on the other end of the line I was still just trying to get some shut eye since I stayed up to that awful morning hour, so I only heard what she was saying a little bit focus wise but something from her voice tone told me it was you have to listen right now buddy boy, so I came out of my bed room an replayed my phone's answering machine. She and Chuck my step father are on their way from Cuenca, Ecuador at a whirl wind  tornado speed because of my step brother Lyle being found unconscious by one his roommates  he is at Kadlec hostpail in Richland Washington. Later today my sister Kylie called me and we talked of the impact of it all and how it might be Lyle's last few days sooner rather than later. I then called my brother Micheal and his wife Kathie told me what they knew of what Lyle's condition is from what the doctors were saying. After talking with them I called Lyle's sister Merri whom I had just seen with my folks this past May during my trek to seeing good ol Mount Rushmore. We chatted for a half hour or about that and I know that she too is coming home to visit during this sad moment in time. All I know is the only thing I can say is right now I'm mighty broken at this moment with thoughts of Lyle.

Good Bye....... Mork from Ork, a strange end for Mister Williams



Hello All,
 You know when I heard it earlier that Robin Williams passed away and it was all over Facebook I just wasn't sure how or what to think of this man who brought so many laughs to so many people that had a way of thinking "Laughter, why do I need to laugh at all most things in life aren't that funny at all..... and when they are it's only to take you away from what's important in life work, for no one has time to be funny, really." Now I know  a lot of people will say why did I Matt include that quote about life and why we should ever think thoughts of the very kind, well it is because I want everyone who reads this even as sad or remarkable of a tribute to Robin Williams this is please, Please don't have that way of viewing life as a whole. 

Robin Williams, was a very talented man who gave us all a way of saying  "Laughter is what makes us all needed at times". He gave us such enduring characters as Aladdin's Gennie 

and "Ms. Doubtfire". He was just getting ready recently to reprise his role as Teddy Roosevelt in a third installment of "NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 3", some may say his returning to television series "THE CRAZY ONES" not being picked up for a second season wasn't part of why Robin took his own life. I went through everything I could think of his early work that I could reflect on and like the title of this entry states I happen to have some his best parts as the Orkion  alien seen here 
 











Robin Williams also made some other great movies besides those listed above. Goodwill Hunting with Matt Damon and the soon to be Batman Ben Alfeck in the Dawn of Justice movie coming out next summer with Superman in there for good measure I Guess?, then there's Hook where Peter Pan faces life adult and can't go back to Neverland for the obvious reason that he doesn't believe anymore in himself. I guess that is a small bit of reasoning that when you look at Williams life he was able to make others so humbly happy whether he was a beacon of hope in every character he ever was, even in dramas he made you think not of yourself but how to explore your own set of being a bundle of laughs. All I know for sure is everyone will miss the man who could pull us from our troubled everyday woes and make us all a lot richer with humor. I do happen to have couple of his films that I may get out just for ol time sake and see if they may show while he was so empty of emotion early today, I know in truth that they won't help with healing the pain of why he couldn't find it in himself to laugh at his own inner demons.....still it is rather unique way of showing us all that sometime even the best medicals can't be easy to be just laughter. But we have to make life worth seeking especially since the answers of understanding life at all are never easy even if we are somebody knowing or thinking we knowing it all, we are just humans that need love from others.
