And now.....here's a cool review of.....

Hey all , 
      You know that it seems like that I have gone into hiding from the world of creativeness or at least related to what it is I have stay about what I believe is important in the way of literature. Earlier today I went to Barnes and Noble out at our mall called Coumbia Center yet before I went looking around for the books seen here

    Kitchen counter, I found a big comfortable chair near the front of the store's enterance I went and finshed  the best offbeat story of mixed up fun that I have been reading since last October. Now before I begin this review remember when I was looking at the month of scares I was wanting to really get my blood to be chilled to the bone but it truly turns out that I was also wanting to find a novel or book that gave me a chance to really and truly experience my own INNER DARKNESS in my way of READING INTO THE UNKNOWN.....Yet I found out that I can't access anything except good ol science fiction of sorts. 
              This book between the incredible hulk beanie and spider-man beanie babies is called

"NIGHT OF THE LIVING TREKKIES" that is both conceived by two Trek fans that also have a fascinating itch of loving horror in the way of Zombies, their names are Sam Stall and Kevin David Anderson. The tease of the book in part is Journey to the final frontier of Sci-Fi zombie horror! Jim Pike (you  can see right where this is going if your a true Star Trek fan/nerd/lover of geek ness.....) was the world's biggest Star Trek fan - until two tours of duty in Afghanistan destroyed his faith in the human race. Now he sleepwalks through life as the assistant manager of a small hotel in downtown Houston.  But when hundreds of Trekkies arrive in his lobby for a science fiction convention, Jim finds  himself surrounded by costumed Klingons, Vulcans, and Ferengi - plus a strange virus that transforms it's carriers into savage, flesh-eating Zombies!
           This story has so much fun with itself you can tell the two writers took everything that they know of Star Trek's many incantations from the original series to Voyager and tossed in zombie movie favorites like "The return of the living dead (1985)", "Zombieland (2009)" and finally I am guessing the most important one that they based this work of literature off is "Night of the living dead  (1968)". It flows in a science grabbing you by the throat action in the reader's face without being completely dark. The one of many neat things they did was they had each chapter relatively related to it being Star Trek known by each one have a spin on a certain episode of the series in someway or other. I really loved the laughs in this novel from the music of William Shatner on the hotel's main intercom in the elevator, Jim's sister Rayna's main way of getting to the convention is priceless and the name of the hotel is named after a certain ship that Enterprise runs into in the episode known as "space seed", putting your thinking caps may be needed here if you are not a Trek fan yet the answer is the hotel's name is Botany Bay which is Khan Noonien Singh's ship from in the year 2267. Now here is a great tease for other science fiction fans to want to read this gem her name is Shelly Dumpkin and who she is in this is, well you're not going to get the answer from me! 
     Overall I have to give this book a rating of Extremely Transporter safety measures MUST BE ON AT ALL TIMES... For if not the fun in this existence will leave you dead with laughter, I give it  an A PLUS!                                                                                  

A few words of HOPE

        

Well All I can think of to continue to say and think is.....
    Haven't done a whole lot today, even though it is late into the first evening of twenty eighteen. Known better as January 1st, I can saw that I Matt Byrd have no true idea of what the whole coming year will behold for any creature that has been created to this point in our existence known as the journey of life. I know also that not the whole blue and green colored planet called earth doesn't all celebrate the incoming new year on the exact day of the new year. For example the Chinese New Year for this year of twenty eighteen isn't official until February sixteen. Which is still seven full weeks away, and their animal symbol for next year is that of the DOG.... So I guess all the Benjis, Tigers, Scooby-Doos, Wonder Dogs better be on the lookout regardless if your fictional or not. Extra credit for naming each fictional dog's actual show or series that they are in! 
          In truth beyond anything in this existence of ours known as life, we can only take each twenty four hours for what they are! I'm not being a know it all in any given way, but life is always about the choices we each human make rather we can see that set of results of those selective effective activities end. It is simply the cause and effect cycle of impact on ourselves....   
           Okay here is a very fine example of what I am talking about choosing a choice on a personal level that I have strong feelings and emotions about no matter what. I have been always in the way of living life that I shouldn't be TEMPTED into doing illegal type of Drugs like Cocaine, Acid, Meth, and even Marijuana the drug that former president Barack Obama made legal to make one less drug being not so much a problem for law enforcement agencies to worry about, but it is still up to each state of the united states to determine IF that is protecting that state's citizens. My thought on ILLGEAL DRUGS is this "Drugs hurt us,when we don't have real crucial information of why our empowering temptation is influenced by our knowledge that we feel is right and our decision is by feeling only. Here is what I found what worked BEST for me... I SAW IN MY HEAD THAT MY PEERS HELD Matt Byrd TO THE GROUND FORCING ME TO EAT CIGAETTES! I have kept that as rooted in my heart as the old saying " I LOVE YOU" and I know that I won't be ever easily put against a wall without why I don't DO DRUGS. Another choice in my life that is more questionable in a way that even I find HARD to explain is how I feel about the emtion of LOVE. I know from my experience with life as you all do life isn't full of answers in understanding love other than you need to share that with family most of all. I guess the best to looking at what love is besides  every thing we all understand that my game that I started last year fits very well here, HOPE is what we all need even me the writer of this very blog.
    Now I know that it has been fully  apparent, that for a long while that I haven't been sure of what to use as my desktop images or picture wise for the site so it will take a bit of time but I am going to be putting a effort to being creative besides  word wise this upcoming year.                

Well like everyone else I too had something happen before Christmas.........

Hello All,

   Well it just seems never to end at times I guess huh?, weather it's the joyful season of being kind hearted as it its right now or just a random every other kind of day it has finally happen to little ol me Matt once again! It seems as if my Samsung Galaxy tab4 tablet has just died on me. I know that I recently was going to be telling ALLL OF YOU to be aware of phone scams which I'm sure I STILL WILL BECAUSE NO ONE SHOULD BE AWAY from HIS/HERS CREATIVTY JUICES FOR VERY LONG. Hopefully many of you who do create art of any kind on the internet haven't had that said problem? Yet that is for another time.

       I guess in all on honesty I shouldn't be too mad about it of what has happen to my Tablet from Samsung. I had gotten it originally back during my trip with my folks and I went to go see family in Minnesota back in twenty fourteen  when we included seeing and driving to both of the Dakotas and vexing those four famous heads seen here George Washington, Tomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, and of  course Abraham Lincoln.

Known better as Mount Rushmore. Still I need to go back and tell those yarns as well ..... So I happen to have whole back history with my Galaxy tab 4 in it's own story so here it is? When we were going through North Dakota we stopped at in the town of Billings at a Best Buy store and picked up the Tablet4 device paid for it only to have it have what problem I have with it now that battery is burned out. When it happen back then it was less than twelve hours and we were in South Dakota then. We took it to the one in town there and exchanged it.

       The one thing most that I'm going to miss for a little bit of a long while is my game that I'm always going on about known simply as    

STARTREK TIMELINES. Which is playing till the end of this year my favorite part of Star Trek lore, a bunch of mini games from the Mirror Universe. Please wish me luck that I can tack on a new Samsung tablet onto my Christmas wish list? or get one soon after maybe?  

    

Trusting humans is HARD if your a certain bird....

Hello all, 
Well without any doubt the title of this entry should scare a Brown feather animal that in a small akward way shares my last name..... Still my whole day was full of very unknowness mainly because as far as I had known about our plans for eating were going to be at my brother Michael's abode,  for as I had told to me by my sister in-law Kathie that our usual suspects in meeting up with were sick and under the weather with the various flu bugs known as her parents place. Yet that was from so early this month it could be that we Kathie and Michael and I  were planning our own gathering of filling family bellies with two famous teenagers on this very blog, or at least close to it for Kathie too was like me playing dodge ball of anything causing time away from work.  
         So this morning even though I could have slept in since I had today off, I didn't for the boy in me since 1985 maybe in truth it was nineteen eighty three...it is my driving force to always bring about the next upcoming holiday known as Christmas . I  do it by filling my inner soul with the Macy day parade watching all of the balloon floats in New York, on my television wishing at some point of being there live one given upcoming year.... I'm not going to lie I'm always looking out for the Marvel float of Spider-Man, still with this being the ninety first run of the actual parade since it was first presented wise back in the original "MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET" movie from in nineteen forty seven which had this balloon seen here 
  

 okay so what I am talking about is the fourth coming balloon float with the big baseball glove in it's right hand. It was known as Harold the baseball player float of nineteen forty sixth Marcy Parade which you can see below on the left. 

      So this year the Parade organizers decided to honor that film's most unseen character in the way of balloon floats and on the upper right is the latest take on Miracle's greatest hidden true secret revealed seventy years later!

      My brother Michael had called me at the eleventh hour of this morning to see if I was ready to go all in on joining him and his small crew for fun. I told him give me to noon or a little after and I'm there. So after getting all slicked up I was ready in a rather Barry Allen minute if you know what I mean!, we were at his abode and playing Mario Kart on their gaming system. I  choose as my player the little ghost dude that on the onset looks like a fluffy marsh mellow  named BOO as I was playing both my brother and his wife and their son Cannon Heidi his older sister was getting ready to go to wherever our Turkey plans laid bare Which while we were playing our six rounds I found out that after all Kathie's side of the family was stronger in the sense of being  healthy that made me feel more confidant at least in my brain and that is a great thing since I deal; with the public on a daily basis.

When we got to Kathie's folk place we all started our own small conversations with members of her family and their friends who also came for the feast of grand thankfulness, after a few minutes of that talking the feasting began in fact here was what was on the table

, minus the yams.  In fact here is a whole better look at the whole Turkey with a couple of bottles of sparkling cider which that is the drink of choice at both this time of year and  the one day coming up

called Christmas day.  After we all sat at our given places at the table Kathie's father said grace and we started passing everything around to who wanted what with their turkey and just so you don't think that I was left out on choices of my own here is what I had on my first plate....

of course their were at least thee more helpings of Yams which I totally forgot to grab a photo of. We stayed till close to eight and had more topics of discussions that were mostly from how I saw it showing me Matt once again how we are all just flawed in being simply human at even our best times of togetherness. We had pie for dessert of three kinds A Apple one, a pumpkin one actually there were two that one, and earlier of when my brother picked me up we went to Albertsons an got a couple of pecan pies one was sugar free just in cause anyone wanted it. Now I know every one you want to know how the heck did I fair on Mario Kart while at Michael home here is how it went down mostly out of the six games I came in seventh expect for the last one we were playing on that one I came in THIRD an for me that is just out right cool. What I do hope is that for the many people in this world that are without anyone realize you have a place in my thoughts and hopes that someone is kind to you today even if it is only to give you a little something of food because I know we can be blind even when we don't want to be,but please don't ever think anyone is better than yourself for we must always remember at the end of any day regardless of if it is a holiday or not you too are also loved and respected even when you don't see it either!

Again I hope that we all have a blessed and humbling Turkey day!          

Sometimes you just have to slip into the season......

Wanna know something rather freaky that is also door slamming CREEPY......
      Have you ever had one of those times that even though you are really into a very outstanding read of a book weather it is a part of a series of something you know that you love because it has your sense of standing for what you like about that given genre but for some reason at the present you feel like you need to stop and set it aside for reasons of the moment that are telling you in a imprint on your brain in bright RED LETTERS OR WORDS just no? Well of late with the third book in my book series by Gini Koch, and the cover seen here

or rather a double of the third book in her  Alien series and yes there is a reason for why I have two copies of it. ( I will explain that at another given time), today when I was heading off to work I really and truly felt the need for a type of book that fit more in tone with the type of the season, which happens to be scare yourself within any means possible....and I had for a very long time forgotten that I had this book from HASTINGS that filed for bankruptcy a few years ago. Well I had found tis very book that you see between the beanie babies of the hulk and Spider-Man

a almost whole year before they closed their business doors. 
              Let's jump to today, okay I know that without a doubt I'm in no way a super fast reader ever, yet as you all know I really do that so my brain and imagination can really explore the world or worlds that I happen to be devouring at the given moment. After work today I was really feeling the need to  fill my heart and blood with a bloody chill shock feeling of being scarred out of my wits just because I wasn't one hundred percent sure if I could make it out to north Richland where Adventures Underground is I went instead to Barnes and Nobles out at the mall in Kennwick, Washington. I had seen while at work today the middle book seen here on display

on my coffee table. The one called BLADE RUNNER, which it has been quite a while since I have seen the nineteen eighty science fiction classic film of the same name which stars Harrison Ford of Star Wars and Indiana Jones fame as the lead character, and yes all of these years later he will be reprising the role for the upcoming sequel known as BLADE RUNNER 2049, is to come sometime this very month. Anyhoo I was really hoping that for some reason or other that Barnes and Nobles would of had a wider selection of new type of horrifying set of new books to engage a hungry filled needed mind like mine like I know I have seen there around this time of year in previous years of when I have had this very wetting idea on my thoughts....... but Bloody heck NOOOO they only had classics like Frankenstein or Dracula. So one of the store employees took me to where they had their other Halloween theme area and yes the even had me with a temptation of Richard Matherson's "I am Legend" but I had decided that since the movie that was made with Will Smith a few years back felt to me not scary and unfrightening  I felt it wasn't going to do it besides the book I have has a Zombie fullness so that was out and I went with a start of a scary trilogy by Deborah Harkness. Then the book along side of the Hulk is just a great find at a very cheap price of Stan Lee's life in actual graphic comic form, so overall I'm very sure I can fill up my fright bone with just a bit of a small amount of a BLOOD THRIST HOPEFULLY, OH YEAH I'M SURE I HAVE HA, HA, HA, HA!   

A few things about 2017's Buddy Walk that are.....

  Hey it is time to find your Buddy for the walk of National Down Syndrome Society's 2017 "BUDDY WALK". Here is what this year's shirts look like oh and yes my good friend Jeremy shows a quick presentation of  the Raffling Prizes.....Which he hopes for something other than all the SEAHAWKS stuff........ in fact I forgot to share what he was hoping for which a pair of basketball hoops for his young nephew seen here as

a real TIGER!  

How words or classic T.V. series of the past relate to today......

Please try to understand that from what your reading of these words by a fictitious reverend mean more to us in hopefully understanding as very frightening swelling of pain inside of you or even me, I HOPE that what I have written below will help everyone who needs understanding of your own inner self can know that WE ALL KNOW THIS! But WE bury this with an even simpler emotion  of WANT INSTEAD!
