John Denver - "Whose Garden Was This"

 This song is sad and I'm sure one day it will be true. This world was once a beautiful garden and just to know everything we are doing to it. We are destroying not just our world but ourselves. I wonder what this world is going to look like in just 10 or 20 years. It sure has changed since I was a kid. I remember there was a time when I breathed clean air and could be out in the sun all day without getting burned. Now, you can get burned in less than 10 minutes out in the direct sunlight when the UV index is high and the air is so polluted at times that I have a hard time breathing it. I remember a time when I could stand in my backyard and watch the sun set on the Great Salt Lake and now I can't even see it because of all the homes that have been built. There used to be a time when I wanted to go to other places on this Earth, but now I no longer want to. How many of them have been ruined and destroyed already. I always wanted to go to Africa and go on a safari to see the wild animals. How many of those animals are no longer on this Earth or they are so rare you will never see them. And one day I doubt there will be any land left for animals and it will just be wall to wall people. I just hope I'm dead and gone before this world totally turns into a world I don't want to be in.

Upcoming TV Season and Old TV Shows


I've been how excited waiting for all my old TV shows to start and now I'm not that excited. I've been looking at how much stuff lately and I'm so disappointed in what's coming up for how many of my shows. First off is Vampire Diaries. I don't know if I will continue to watch. It was bad enough having to watch the Damon and Elena romance because it was so boring and the Stefan and Caroline romance. Now, there is going to be a lesbian couple. Knowing how Vamp Diaries usually shows a lot of sexual content, I've no doubt that we will see this couple kissing and doing who knows what else. I don't care if the show has a gay couple, but I do not want to see the sexual side of the relationship on my screen. Sometimes I don't even want to see the other couples having sex. It sometimes is more explicit than a rated R movie. I remember trying out some new show on CW and there was a gay couple and the sex scene went on for a long time and I finally had to turn the channel. I don't want to see that. If I wanted to watch sex or porn, I would look somewhere else. I want to see good stories and interesting characters, not a ton of sex on TV. I don't care what characters get together or love each other or have sex. I just don't think it needs to be shown on TV. You can have the characters kiss and go in the bedroom and wake up in the morning together and talk about it, but why does it have to be constantly shown like a porno.
I can't believe that ABC has shown promos for Blood and Oil during family shows and it has two characters in the middle of having sex. I guess TV has gone back to permitting everything. Once they got those stupid ratings, they just ended up making shows have more violence, sex and swearing.
I have nothing against gay people or whatever they call that community today, nor do I support them. Frankly, I don't care what people do in their own bedrooms, but I do not want to see how much of it on TV. It seems like all the channels and shows are now jumping on the gay bandwagon and adding or making characters become gay or lesbian. I will watch Once Upon A Time and see what they do with that story. If it becomes too much, then I will be done with the show or I will just tune out those scenes and concentrate on the other characters of the show. As for Vampire Diaries, just watching that clip I saw made me not want to watch at all. I wonder how many more new characters are going to be appearing. I've always loved new characters, but lately, I haven't like or cared about any. As for this new lesbian couple, don't care about them already, nor do I want to see that. Thursday night is going to be crammed with shows and I know I'll be watching The Blacklist, but I don't know about any other show. It will depend when Sleepy Hollow is on, whether I watch it or not.
I'm excited for Gotham and I hope it stays good. I personally loved last year and I hate how they keep saying they've improved the show from last season and it will be better. I loved the first season and I guess I'll see if I love the second season or not. I'm sure the writers are going to make the show more like a soap opera, like everything else on TV. It seems like that's what all the shows I watch are. Just night time soaps.
I've been watching old TV shows and remembering why I loved them so much. They were mostly free from all the crap of TV today. A lot of them made you laugh and smile and feel good inside. That's the main reason I've loved TV. I want to watch something that will be as far away from my life as possible and something that will make me feel good. I've been watching High Mountain Rangers on YouTube and I remember how much I loved that show. It didn't have very many episodes, but it was a great show.
I also started to watch Friday The 13th: The series. I love this show now as much or more as I loved it back when I was younger. I loved the characters and the story. I loved how they were trying to get back all those cursed objects and what all the objects did. Maybe that's why I loved Supernaturals first season so much because it was like this show. Now, Supernatural is a soap opera and Sam and Dean do more harm than good. At least Mickey and Ryan didn't know about the antiques when they sold them, but after they sold some, they tried to get them back, plus what their uncle had sold.
I bought the DVDs to watch of the first two seasons and I've been watching on my Kindle.
To finish this post, I will say I'm excited for The Voice and Shark Tank to come on. I started watching Shark Tank and I love it now. I guess I'm starting to love reality shows or something. I remember a time when I hated them and would not watch them at all. I guess with the decline of good scripted shows and dramas, then that's all you have left.
Here's to hoping that some of my shows will be good. I don't know if I'll be watching all my favorite shows this season or not. Or if they will remain my favorites. TV keeps going downhill and I find myself reading more books again.
I guess time will tell and I'll watch and see what happens.

Supernatural season 11: Thoughts and Predictions


I just had to use this weirdo pic because it about sums up what Supernatural is all about. All these characters have split personalities and you never know which one you're going to see at any given time. They all should be in a loony bin somewhere getting shock treatments. Now that would be great for the last episode of the series. Sam and Dean wake up and they were really in a mental hospital the whole time and Castiel was their doctor and Crowley was the one who gave them shock therapy.
I watched the promo for season 11 and I actually felt a twinge of excitement until I remembered that's how I felt at the beginning of season 7 before the show turned into crap. Maybe the first half of season 11 will be good and then the writers will run out of steam and it will probably be all down hill from there. I don't expect much from the writers because they have not given me much for the last couple of seasons now.
Sam is going to be having visions. Wow! How long has it been since his last vision? Pretty long. I'm sure Sam's visions are going to be coming from Lucifer. Dean is going to have visions as well and I'm sure his will be from God. Seeing how Dean is the righteous man and God loves him above all others. I also read that we find out Sam had an imaginary friend. Who didn't know that? The writers. Lucifer has always been Sam's imaginary friend. I'm sure it was him who convinced Sam that he needed to get away from his rotten family and work a job and live normal and safe. That's not God's way because Dean has always followed God by stealing, killing, lying and having sex with whoever or whatever he can get.
The promo made it look like Crowley and Castiel will have something to do this season.  I'm sure the promo is making it look this way and really Rowena will have a way better story than Crowley yet again. I'm sure by the middle of the season, Castiel will be back to his usual boring self.
I love how snivels are already sniveling about poor Dean not having any story. Dean will be the front and center like always. The show has revolved around darling Dean since the very beginning and I doubt it will ever stop.
I wonder if the Darkness is going to be as stupid as the Mark Of Cain. Probably.
Now on to some predictions for the season. I'm sure good old Charlie will reappear in some form or another. That stupid Claire will probably show up yet again and I'll be bored to tears. Scary part is, I'd rather see stupid Charlie than stupid Claire. They both suck and I just want to turn the channel, but I can bet that both or one of them shows up multiple times this season. Another horrible female character is Rowena. I can stand her more than the other two, but I still don't want to see her dominating the whole show. I'm sick of these stupid female characters they keep shoving in our faces. I remember when Bela and Ruby were on the show. Neither one of them dominated an episode and Ruby is still pretty much a mystery as far as I'm concerned. I really wanted to know more about her character, but we never go to find out because fans hated her. The only reason most fans hated her was because she was involved with Sam. If she had been hot for Dean, then they would have loved her.Whatever. I've realized that any character that associates and likes Dean is loved and any character that associates or likes Sam is hated. So basically most fans love Dean and hate Sam. Doesn't matter what most of them say about either character, it's how the other characters that interact with them are treated by the fandom that prove how much they are loved or hated.
I haven't watched any episodes of Supernatural now for over four months and counting. I want to forget that the last 10 years of the show ever happened. For me to even like or enjoy season 11, I'm going to have to think of Sam and Dean as new characters that I don't know at all. Maybe I'll pretend that they died when the darkness swept over the car and these are new darker versions of them.
Hopefully, I'll like more episodes this season than last. Last season was the worst season ever and I never want to see or even think about any of those episodes again ever, even though a few were good. If this season doesn't start out good and keep going, then it will be time to drop the show for good. I'll find out what happens after the show is over and done with.

One last thing before I go. I'm so happy that I do not go to any Cons anymore. I looked on the site and now they have to tell fans not to tell their sob stories to the stars and at the panels. They really need someone to start moderating at the Cons and make sure fans don't ask stupid questions, tell their dumb sob stories or try to get sympathy from the stars for whatever.
Well that's all for now.

Walk The Moon - Shut Up and Dance (performed by Taylor Mathews)

I just love Taylor Matthews. He has such a unique and power voice. This is a great new song by him and I love listening to it. I love listening to his music at work. I just wish more people could discover Taylor and they would love him and his beautiful voice as much as I do. I can't wait for more and I'll never be able to get enough.
