We’re Back! The Return of Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry Means Halloween Comes Early to Cereal Shelves
General Mills has announced that they will once again be resurrecting from the cobwebbed breakfast cereal vaults their beloved sugar-coated, marshmallow-loving monsters Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry. This is music to the ears (think creaking doors, screeching cats, an ungodly boom of thunder, Lon Chaney’s Phantom playing his pipe organ deep in the Opera’s catacombs) of people like me who grew up, as children of the 1970s, not only devouring them at the kitchen table on weekend mornings, but sneaking bowl after bowl-overflowing with milk slowly turning brown, pink, or blue-into the living room while watching horror movies on late night TV.

Men Do Make Passes at Girls Who Wear Glasses: A Tribute to Yvonne Craig (1937-2015)
Sadly, Yvonne Craig, best known for her role as “Batgirl” on the 1960’s TV series version of “Batman”, passed away on Monday at her Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles home, after a long two year battle with breast cancer.
Whoever invented the saying: “Men don’t make passes who girls who don’t wear glasses” apparently never got a glimpse of Yvonne Craig in the Batman series. Yvonne played role of conservative librarian Barbara Gordon, daughter of Commissioner Gordon. However, her alter ego was the sexy Batgirl, ally to Batman and Robin in their Gotham City crime fighting crusades.

Cormac McCarthy’s New Novel “The Passenger” Gets Sneak Preview at Public Reading
Although the eminently reclusive author did not participate in the staged reading of excerpts from The Passenger, what will be his first novel in ten years, Cormac McCarthy did appear onstage at the conclusion of the event to thank the audience assembled at Santa Fe, New Mexico’s Lannan Foundation. Actress Caitlin McShea and evolutionary biologist David Krakauer performed passages of the book rumored to be thirty years in the making. The Passenger will reportedly be published at a still unspecified time in 2016, which will also mark the 50th anniversary of McCarthy’s literary debut The Orchard Keeper, and evidently involve a heavily scientific plotline.

10 Day to Day Hassles That Really Make My Blood Boil but Shouldn’t
A number of years ago a man by the name of Richard Carlson Ph.D. wrote a popular book called: “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff”. Great concept! Ultimately, there are very few things in life that are truly worth getting upset about when you stop and think about it. However, if you’re like me, you’ll appreciate that sometimes this is much easier said than done. That said, here are 10 day to day irritations that send me completely off the rails. I’ve edited out most of the salty language so that I don’t get in trouble with “Bad” Brad my Publisher. (lol)

Johnny Cash and Joe Strummer: A Tear Stained Letter and Grease Stained Pizza Box
By Chris Benedict
Although the version featuring them both on vocals wouldn’t officially surface until the posthumous Unearthed collection, Bob Marley’s Redemption Song proves to be a fitting dual farewell from Joe Strummer and Johnny Cash. Well understandable is the global significance placed upon a self-empowering protest anthem written and made famous by a Jamaican Rastafarian who beheld Ethiopian Emperor Halie Selassie as a sort of Christ figure, performed by the quintessential country music outlaw whose poignantly incendiary murder ballads about “mud and blood and beer” torched the falsely sentimental imagery and mythology of the folkloric American west, along with a Turkish-born punk rocker whose musical influences ranged from Woody Guthrie to Lee “Scratch” Perry and fronted arguably the most persuasive British agitators of the Reagan/Thatcher era.

Straight Outta Compton Hit Movie: But a Sad Commentary on Society! (Must Read ARTICLE)
By Debbie Edwards
“You are what you eat”. This manner of thinking is widely accepted in today’s society. People know that a healthy diet and lifestyle typically yields a healthy life. Conversely, a diet riddled in high fat and sugars, fast foods, and empty calories typically results in health problems, such as diabetes, obesity, and generally poor health.
We accept this fact regarding the things that we put into our bodies, but do we accept this in what we put into our minds? This week, a movie entitled “Straight Outta Compton” topped the box office with a $56.1 million opening. Social media has been buzzing about the movie, and demographics show that the majority of movie goers were under age 30….. and the majority were female. That fact is troubling to me. Why? For more reasons than a few.
