Hello everyone, Well without any doubt as you all can see it's completely common knowledge around these parts that the month of March for all intended purposes is my birthday plague time in a way, no not really, but like most who enjoy each moment of each day for what it is I really try to have this month be my BIGGEST challenge in the way of growth is so much an interesting investment. By this I mean that for me Matt, I get a chance to explore why I cherish great memories from as far back as I can honestly truly remember... yet with this upcoming year being my time to get back to having a number one at the end of my time of being around in age, I was thinking what could I possibly do for a brief special lead in to that upcoming age that I really have not done before? I really want to devote my words of wisdom in the next coming weeks of to my fifty reasoning of why aging is very great. Now what I will admit to is that these reasons are not in a way precision perfection, yet maybe for those whom are my elders you may as well find something worthwhile that can bring Back memories of your own youth in your own daily lives and I don't mean any distant distractions if your feelings are unaffected in some way because at the end of every day your life choices are your own expressions of your existence. Now just so that you and I will know of these fifty memories are not gonna be ranked in a big deal format as to which one is the "BEST OF" or the "WORST OF" and some of these may have been mentioned before in other posts here and I can say it will help me in just helping myself out to understand who I Matt Byrd am deep down inside of my soul... So let's just jump into memory lane with number fifty out of FIFTY: If my very first shared memory out of my FIFTY to leading to my upcoming year of turning an impactment of FIFTY ONE in twenty, twenty three were not to include the two people seen here
with my brother Michael and my sister Kylie and of course myself, as well then I am going to admit without Evelyn Day Powers and her husband Benjamin Powers we all three of us wouldn't know the meaning of what FAMILY is absolutely about. They were my mother Nancy Powers Watson's parents and they treated each of the three of us kids with the greatest lessons of knowing what love is really about. Before I get to far into more content of this very meaningful memory I have to say look at My and Michael's heads we did actually have our own hair. When this was taken I want to say around nineteen eighty two we were at our dad's sister's Betty Arey and her husband Ted's home out oin West Richland, Washington for Thanksgiving dinner. We got to see my cousins Bruce and his wife Susan and their kids, and their two uncles Sean Arey who was just out of high school at the time and was getting ready for college. An their other uncle who is a couple months younger than me and his name is Marc Arey. I remember that the Arey's had an Atria 2600 and I at least remember playing the KA-BOOM! game on their system and Astorids, but especially Pac-Man or Pitfall at the time. Maybe they also had colecovision system that was released in nineteen eighty two around the time the photo was taken on that system they had more sport type games especially Golf because the whole Arey family loved the game. They also had ownership in West Richland Golf course around this time I believe. If you are wanting to ask me personally as to if this memory was worth sharing you bet it was for it was one of two times that both sides of my mom and dad's families were kind to each other. The other will be later on this very list. Now as to what it was that I did have on My tablet when during the month of February for when I turned it on was a blend of my two top favorite science fiction series with this
Of all the main Star Trek characters from the nineteen seventy three animated cartoon series by flimation studios that later did HE-MAN and the Masters of the universe cartoon series almost to a tee a decade later in nineteen eighty three to nineteen eighty five. Which is roughly the same amount of years...and I will come back to how HE-MAN and the Masters of the universe in a past post that I have to celebrate that character's forty years of being around. Star Trek's animated series came before any of the actual Star Trek films. What's truly amazing about this image is someone came up with a way to love their two favorite science fiction series with a blend of the two combined. There happens to one odd choice for one the characters seen here, I can only come up with this for a answer is that fan loves the color of Pink..... to myself there is nothing wrong with that at all. Now as to what I want to say about my phone images that I am going to be sharing was it has been a bit of a while since I remembered doing this? On my phone when I was turning it on during the entire month of February was this : A signed copy of the very last issue of his final work for Marvel comics of the character that shot comic artist Todd McFarlane into the stratosphere was his work on the AMAZING SPIDER-MAN from late nineteen eighty seven till eighty nine. Then Marvel gave him his own title of abjectless SPIDER-MAN from late nineteen eighty nine till May of nineteen ninety one. Then he and four other creators left both Marvel and Decetevice Comics and had three other artists join them in creating their own impressive properties, with his being of course Spawn at the company they created known as IMAGE comics. When I was looking at it on my phone screen I had it zoomed in on Spidey swinging at me. As to when while looking at my main screen of my tablet after turning it on I went and keeping myself in touch with my most current postings I went an used this , an image that I had found over this past summer into fall of what looks like the Yamato in a newer form other than the Star Blazers series that I remember as a child in a more I guess kind of a computer generated warping through space...this was of course before I had found out about Leiji Matsumoto's unexpected passing last month right before Valentine's day.
Finally before I reveal what I had on my phone's main screen after opening it let me just remind you that yours truly has a lot of gigantic plans for this year...also recall I am planning on doing a whole review of each episode of a television series that let's have what I had on my phone try to explain it without much else than this.
A woman or maybe a young girl who knows for sure?, is opening a door into a certain fifth dimension if you dare imagine being in the TZ better known as the Twilight Zone.
Before I plan on leaving thinking of what my continuing thoughts throughout my life are for you all, I want to reveal my site's background plate of another big thing that I have on my brain of late and here it is
a universal understanding of our planet earth. So once again I am off to remembering of my years of livelihood to celebrate an anniversary of age! To Be Continued for a long while.....
