I am Natalia's daddy! My latest happenings as well as my lil' girls happenings will be posted here as I live them.

I like to read science fiction, fantasy as well as classics and comics. Always looking for recommendations. Like to play video games and board games. Love to watch old movies and shows, as I find them relaxing and entertaining. Last but not least. like to feed the birds and do some gardening.

Proud to be a US Navy Corpsman veteran and part of the Southwest Region Funeral Honor Guard.

Everything Normal Here

Another semi-quiet few days with Natalia. Again my ex demanding info from me and making threats but that will not bother me. Natalia a little sick this week but very playful. I surely will miss her and the stuff she says. Decided to BBQ again and stuck to my "tried and true" tri-tip.

By now most have heard of the news of the new actors to play Batman and Iron Man. I don't know why they cant keep the same actors. If they wanted more money it should be payed out because already people are not looking forward to the movies. Fans get used to a certain face for that character. DC needs all the help they can get and already starting a movie loosing fans. Still plugging away at The Companions book and thus far a very entertaining read and a page turner. I am very sure it will leave me hanging and waiting for the next novels. Also in a Cthulhu mythos kick and looking for more stories and feel it will be a book I will take on my trip.

My dad recently received an Apollo 11 patch as being part of that mission. During that mission he was in the Coast Guard stationed in the Atlantic Ocean awaiting the landing of the capsule.

Watched the US Pro Cycling Challenge this year online and only way I can see it was through a Eurosport feed. Funny a local race can be seen through a European outfit as the US media so much tries to not allow viewers. Sponsors and advertisers should take notice they are wasting their money on such stations. Also the Vuelta A Espana has begun and thus far no good videos online. I was hoping to find some as I wanted to keep up with it a bit with Eusklatel and Caja Rural hoping to be very aggressive.

This week there was a march in Washington DC in memory of Martin Luther King and I must tell you that my uncle and grandma flew out there to participate. I saw a few pictures and one that got me a bit worked up was a few people stepping on the WWII Memorial. People just don't care anymore and don't know their history. Let alone think for a second of the sacrifice Americans made during those times so we can have what we have today. I have to start to think if it is ignorance or just plain hate and dishonor.I think some of the behavior  would anger Marting Luther King.

On another front get ready to have a bigger force of military presence from the U.S. to hit Syria as again this administration is finding stories to make the Syrians bad and in need of "saving" from us. Just another bunch of fake stories so we can get into yet another country to place our agenda there. Sorry. But don't worry he media here has many looking at Miley and the Batman news.

Please listen to the No Agenda Show for the real stories.
