charlie sheen's flying car(s)

this is one of those wtf types of things... the police found charlie sheen's mercedes down a ditch/ravine (a small ravine or a deep ditch, but OFF the road). charlie wasn't in it... no one was in it. charlie says he "left his keys in the car." well, he lives in a gated community... so...

except this has happened before. about four months ago, his suv was found about a mile up the road from where the mercedes landed. same story. keys in the car. verdict in both cases (so far) "joyriding kids."

that might be plausible except, in the february incident, there is no video tape of the suv leaving the community.. which it would have needed to do in order to travel from charlie's driveway to the ditch/ravine. no word yet on the existence of the tape of the mercedes.

in the first case, charlie filed a stolen car report. but in the second case, he didn't realize his car was missing until the police told him they'd found it (this was 12 hours or so after the last time he saw which he says was at 4 p.m.).

i don't know what is going on in this case, but it seems strange to me. "joyriding kids"? wouldn't the kids who had access to this car be living in charlie's neighborhood so therefore rich themselves? i mean, i guess it's possible... especially since the keys were in the car, so it doesn't exactly take a seasoned car thief to get the car started.. but why would these kids crash the car? is that part of the fun?

now, i don't think this is some sort of "insurance fraud" as that would be stupid considering charlie's income. just to get that out of the way.

i wonder if someone charlie knew took the car and deliberately crashed it because they were pissed at him. or if he accidentally crashed it and walked home. or who knows what else. i guess it just depends if a video shows up this time of the "joyriding kids."

back to the missing tape...that's also curious. does the security company dump them after a certain amount of time (it sounds like a short time)? that seems ... odd... but who knows.

larry king may finally retire!!

even though he is only 312 years of age, larry king has decided that it's time to quit punching the old time clock and let someone else have a turn. apparently, that "someone else" is going to be piers morgan of all people on earth. wtf? i'm not even sure if this is an improvement and i didn't think it'd be that difficult to be an improvement over larry king.

i guess cnn is just doing this for the love to taping stuff and they don't really NEED viewers? because, to be honest, the promise of piers is just not making me want to tune in... not that i was watching larry either, but still.

sharon murphy and the missing laptop

recently, simon monjack's mother, brother and a therapist (i'm not sure whose therapist) visited sharon murphy in the house she inherited from her daughter brittany. when the group left, they took with them what's being called "simon's laptop."

while browsing around on the laptop, simon's relatives were surprised to learn he had two young children (a boy and a girl) by two different women. i am not sure of the age of the children or where the women live. however, he was paying a couple of different people. it wasn't explained whether these are the mothers or some other people (although it sounds like the latter). the information on the computer made the brother decide to turn the laptop over to the coroner.

meanwhile, sharon called the police and reported the laptop stolen. although people are insinuating she did this because simon's relatives reported the contents, it's possible she did this simply because they took it. maybe she didn't agree that it was "simon's laptop."

1979 national enquirer article on nsa's website

like all government agencies, the national security agency and their bffs, the central security service, have a website. on said website, they have some declassified information including some "oral histories" by retiring members of the service (these have been typed up, but audio recordings may also have been made for all i know).

however, i decided to browse through their declassified stuff (for about two minutes). i found a section called "ufo", so i clicked it and there were a number entries. one of them was a copy of a national enquirer article that claimed "super secret agency warns of alien attack." this article had been simply clipped and identified. there wasn't even a "haha" out to the side.

so, you know what this could mean? it could mean that the nsa takes the national enquirer seriously. and if THEY take it seriously... does that mean it contains actual facts? or do they just clip its articles as a way to discern what sorts of things average people are reading in grocery store lines? it's a mystery. but, going to the nsa's site is a convoluted way to access a national enquirer article, that's for sure.

human experimentation

over the past two months I have watched a lot of movies. surprisingly, secret experiments on humans has cropped up several times. mostly, mind control.

i'm going to do a post about each movie. a few outright say that is what they are about, some are a little sneakier.

I did not actually think that's what I would be seeing in some cases. I don't want to say which ones yet because I need to re-examine my first impression.

even though the mk ultra hearings were in 1977, it seems over the past few years there has been a lot of interest in the subject. i'm not sure why this should be.

there were some books on the mind control (mostly survivors' accounts) in the 90s although none of the movies are telling those exact stories. perhaps because survivors' stories are difficult to verify. no one is stepping up to take "credit", after all.

survivors of mind control programs say the best defense against it is information. even if some movies are treating it as just another topic to fictionalize... they do dramatize what was/is done and what it does to people.

is angelina jolie as beautiful as the legendary cleopatra?

i saw an article today that questioned whether cleopatra was actually even a great beauty. but, when i clicked on the link, it was mostly touting angelina jolie taking on the role in an upcoming movie. i don't know how angie jo will feel about that article since that can be interpreted as saying she's not pretty.

i think it's safe to say cleopatra looked pretty damned good since we are still hearing about her NOW. people have forgotten a lot of gorgeous women between then and now, so either she lived up to the hype or she had the best p.r. team the world has ever seen.

that considered, there may not be any actress in the world who can live up to such a high standard of beauty. i think there are prettier actresses than angelina, but i know many people would disagree with that and i don't know that those actress would suit the role. also, what do i know? haha

angelina, they're gushing, has the "perfect look". and, coincidentally, brad pitt has the "perfect look" to play mark anthony. hmmm... how convenient. so, where to find julius cesar? from angie's former loves or former costars (there's a fair number of names on both lists).

i have tried to watch the elizabeth taylor version. i just can't with it. i think it's got so much going on that it gets really cluttered on a television. so, if i had access to a really fine movie theater so i could see it in its intended glory, i might have a different opinion on that.

people of walgreens, gird your loins!

today is shia lebeof's 24th b-day and walgreens is his favorite drinkin' place! (not kidding)

miley cyrus, worries out of left field

I just read miley confiding that she "hates" that "people think" she's "on drugs." er, I wasn't aware anyone thought that? wth?

now, obviously, miley is going to be much more up to date on whatall people think of her than I am. but still. is this actually a thing?

most everyone i've heard about are too busy noticing... the way miley is... kind of, let's just say... plain spoken?

then there's miley's tendency to be a little er... well, remember the bra-revealing photo? like that. only more.

at the milder end they're not too surprised about her latest skimpy outfit then there's the more extreme end. some guy on the internet actually called her "depraved." (that seems harsh). oops, my bad... he called her "degenerate." (still too harsh, imo)

miley assures us that she will never "be that person" who drinks to excess. she's just going to keep in mind that... oh, I don't know, she lapsed into miley-ese.

she gives a lot of credit for her future commendable behavior to bret michaels. I guess miley hasn't found time to watch rock of love, rock of love 2, or rock of love bus.

gary coleman, troubling details

UPDATE: shannon price was legally authorized to make medical decisions on gary's behalf. she gave permission for the hospital to release the medical directive filed by gary. this makes sense as gary had a lot of health problems and didn't get along with his parents. I am not sure why gary's lawyer was unaware of this, but due to this document it didn't matter than gary and shannon were divorced.

original article follows...
when poor gary passed away I remember thinking he was DIVORCED. well, it turns out he WAS. I don't know exactly the nature of his relationship with the woman now being called shannon (prior reports had her as sharon), but she is who called 911. so, they were in the same house when gary fell.

tmz posted the call. I didn't listen to it, but she was "too sick" to go downstairs to check on gary. when she finally was convinced to do so by the 911 operator, she's too freaked out by blood to help him (i'm not sure what they'd asked her to do).

at the hospital, she presented herself as gary's wife. the hospital accepted this and asked her about turning off gary's life support. (by the way, I don't know if she literally said she was his wife or what.)

since the details have been made public, gary's lawyer has come forward to say gary divorced her in 2008 and she wasn't authorized to make this decision. this is about to get complicated...

I am still not sure how gary came to fall so badly. he was in the kitchen making something for his ex-wife to eat. he was particularly weak because he'd had dialysis that day.

gary, whose kidney problems stunted his growth, required dialysis three times per week. it's said this session had left him very drained. someone from that medical facility said, "he just wanted to go home."

so, gary's ex-wife is not looking that great right now. I will mention if she truly was as sick as she claimed, she may have been a little fuzzy in her thinking. that might explain a few things...

but, it seems a lot to authorize switching someone off of life support. I don't know what to think about that.

rest in peace, gary coleman.

gaga worried about bad spirits?

it's being reported that lady gaga has ordered "ghost busting equipment" to take onto the road with her. i'm not sure exactly what they're looking for (or how they're doing it), but some say gaga is being "haunted" by a ghost or some sort of bad spirits.. anyway, it's following her around. (i'm using quoties because i doubt anything in this story is even true anyway.)

hm.. well, my advice, if lady gaga were to ask me and i am pretty sure she will, is to learn to sleep with the lights on.. seriously. it helps me not have bad dreams. i have absolutely no scientific explanation as to why that should work, but it does. :)
