-I got called in for a sleeping overnight Saturday night at the group home. Then, since I had to be at another house at 7 am, I left at 6 am, and when I got to the other house I was called back to the first house due to a staff now showing. Then, I worked until 6 pm instead of 3 pm due to staff not showing. So, 21 hours in three houses overall. I was home less than 5 minutes before I was called and asked if I could come back. I turned it down because I was pretty much exhausted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Reports are the Marvel is losing the Conan license for new books (but will keep doing reprints) and the current rights holder wants to create the comics. While I have loved the work Marvel has done on Conan, the sames haven\u2019t been great. The books, which used to be a must stock in book stores, seem to have faded as well. Even the books by modern authors faded by the mid 90\u2019s. Much like Tarzan, IMHO.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Many of these long running characters have moved to niche products with small press books and the like. In many ways I don\u2019t think \u201cWhy aren\u2019t they more popular\u201d so much as \u201cI\u2019m happy we get anything at all.\u201d Even the 70\u2019s Men\u2019s Adventure\u201d pulps like The Executioner, Blade (the book series), The Death Merchant, Able Team, and the like have faded to the point where nothing new is coming out with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


-Most of my wrestling friends have talked about Tammy Sytch, the former Sunny, and her ongoing legal issues and criminal charges. She\u2019s been putting people in danger with her drunk driving for years and finally caused the death of a man in a crash. Hopefully, this finally locks her up so everyone around her is safe. She\u2019s been given endless chances and times in rehab, and none of it has worked. And, when she is finally locked up, I hope never to hear about her again because we only hear about her when she\u2019s done something illegal.

-I read a DEEP dive in to Republican Madison Cawthorn on Politico, and it just made me shake my head. He was never qualified for office, has been a weasel for as far back as there are records about him, the Republican party is firing at him with everything they can find and he\u2019s still leading in the polls. I swear if you have an R by your name in some places, they\u2019d elect you from jail.

OH WAIT, THEY DID: https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/us-news\/indiana-man-charged-murder-death-wife-wins-republican-primary-jail-rcna27638<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay Classy, Indiana.

-One this I miss about the height of the COVID lockdown was not hearing about a new mass shooting every day. I wonder if most people in the US know that other countries now don\u2019t recommend their citizens come here for tourism due to the prevalence of mass shootings and police brutality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Kind of a downer today. I\u2019m tired and a bit down myself and should have avoided the news like the plague this weekend. I also lost most of the time I set aside for taking care of things in the house, so I feel like I didn\u2019t get a real break over the weekend.

Be kind, be courageous, and be cool. Much love to friends old and new.
