Poetry Hurts
It shouldn’t surprise you that I find this both hilarious and sometimes accurate. Enjoy.

Disney Be Damned…
I love “motivational posters” and my good friend Mike sent this to me today. As you might imagine, it lifted my spirits instantly. Thanks Mike!

Today sucks.
1. It’s Monday. After a great weekend (more on that later) coming back to find out my entire month of September is going to be mass chaos isn’t exactly pleasant.
2. My email account was hacked over the weekend and apparently sent out hundreds of emails to names and addresses I’ve never seen before. They were clearly from a farming/phishing list, and it was pushing some kind of newsletter (at least it wasn’t pr0n, y’all). I took care of it. I hope. I don’t have the patience to deal with migrating everything to another account.
3. I woke up with a splitting headache in my right eye. It hurts to think. It hurts to swallow. It hurts to turn my head at all. It hurts to walk. It even hurts to blink. I’ve tried stretching out my neck (it’s all due to spasming neck & back muscles… I know this because if you run your hand from my temple along my head to the back of my neck, you can feel the bulging tightness. That continues down to between my shoulder blades.
4. Apparently, Disney is to buy Marvel. I know that the gut reaction is possibly to gag and flail arms wildly and run around screaming “Fire! Fire!” but it might not be all that bad. Keep in mind that Disney backs a lot of different production companies that you may have no idea about… they just don’t have the name “Disney” splashed all over it. Then again, if Disney owning Marvel means they impose “Disney-esque” morality and violence clauses into Marvel Comics, I’ll go just a little off my rocker. Even worse:
Marvel Divas will now be Marvel Disney-Princesses? (h/t @Macengr)
Though I have to admit… if You stick a little of the Phoenix in Ariel, I might just pay to see that…
Here’s to hoping modern medicine and reflexology start kicking in soon…. if so, More later (I have lots of updates, rants, reviews, and news!)

- Why Fans Are Forgetting the Point of Mixed Martial Arts | Bleacher ReportHearing boos resonate from the crowd when the fighters are displaying strategic, tactical, and technical skills on the ground is mind boggling. Then again, they might just be there for the flashy KOs, not the sport itself. A shame.
- Frank Mir Should Be Arrested After Public Death Threat on Brock Lesnar | Bleacher ReportWith the need to defend MMA from those who call it a Blood Sport, and with so many venues adn states fighting to get permission to legalize MMA and hold events, comments like this are irresponsible -- Especially from someone in his position.
