Hello and welcome to Mealtime with Maddie!
Today we're going to be making a huge mistake!
So basically the story is I created a poll on my Twitter and I was like "Should I have
frozen pizza or mini corn dogs or maybe I should learn how to cook?"
My friend Levi, he went ahead and said "All of the above sounds good" so here I am!
Making all of the above.
Indeed, I am going to cook, see I'm learning how to cook, a mini-corndog pizza!
However I'm not a real chef so here is our pizza already made.
It's pepperoni, delicious.
And our mini-corn dogs!
Also already made.
Convenient.
I'm an expert on this frozen pizza so no need to look at the instructions.
I feel like those are famous last words of every Mealtime with Maddie.
Open the baaaaag.
Open the bag!
Why do I always have troubles with this?!
OPEN THE BAGGGG!
Aha.
We open the bag.
Great so here's our frozen pizza.
Ready to go we're going to stick that in the oven for 10 minutes once the oven's warmed
up and then we're going to go ahead and cook these once that gets closer to completion.
That way they're nice and warm and they don't get cold and gross and yucky.
So while all of this is cooking, let's go ahead and hear a word from our sponsors!
Robot Lady voice: Follow at Maddness22 on Twitter.
She is really funny and stuff.
Wait, can I make this robot lady say anything?
Butts butts butts butts butts butts butts Welcome back from our commercial break from
our great sponsors!
It's time to cook the mini-corndogs!
It's a very difficult step.
Okay see what you do is you open the resealable bag.
And then you just go ahead and you dump them.
Throw that there.
Throw that up here.
If you have an express cook option on your microwave, go ahead and just hit 2 and it
sounds like our pizza's done!
But we're not going to take the pizza out until it's a bit cool.
Can you be quiet?
I'm trying to do a cooking show.
Please?
Thank you.
And now great!
While that pizza's cooling off and these mini corn dogs are cooking, let's go ahead and
hear another word from our great sponsors!
Batman x 20 Welcome back to Mealtime with Maddie!
That was another great word from our sponsors!
They have so many great words!
As you can see, we have the mini corn dogs and the pizza all cooked, ready to combine
into an excellent mini-corn dog pizza of my creation!
This is another very difficult task on the mini-corndog pizza.
Basically you're going to take the mini corn dogs, see?
This is a mini corn dog.
And you're going to put it on the pizza!
Just keep doing that until you're satisfied with how many mini corn dogs are on your pizza.
Put that there, great.
Put that here, great.
Great, great.
And now I feel like our dish is finished.
It's a masterpiece, really.
And so now it's time for the best part of Mealtime with Maddie: eating my creation!
Oh boy.
Alrighty!
Here we go.
Gotta get my napkin in place.
Can't cover the microphone.
Bonna my teet.
Alright this one is for you, Levi!
Here we go!
Corn dog and pizza.
I missed the corn dog!
MMMM!
I'm sorry.
This is the best dish I've ever created.
Mmm let's get another one of those corn dogs in there to fill that hole.
There we go!
MMM!
I think I've created a masterpiece.
This is actually legitimately super good.
Thank you, Levi!
Oh my god.
The sweetness of the cornbread with the meat of the hot dog and then the sweetness of the
tomato sauce.
It's so good!
So thank you for joining me on this episode of Mealtime with Maddie!
If you have an idea for a food or if you want to catch me on my next Twitter poll about
food, go ahead and follow my Twitter @Maddness22.
@ me with some short food dish or recipes or something you want me to try.
Or leave it in the comments below!
Either way, just this is great!
All I'm saying is that if Levi wasn't following me on Twitter, I would've never discovered this beautiful,
beautiful dish.
This is, oh my god, this is so good!
Argh!
I've never been more excited about a Mealtime with Maddie.
Like I understand this can make me fat, but I also don't care 'cause it's that good.

Here's what the Trump White House wants to cut to fund his border wall - politics - Duration: 3:23.
Here�s what the Trump White House wants to cut to fund his border wall, military spending
spree
On the same day that Department of Homeland Security justification documents were reported
that indicate President Donald Trump wants nearly $1 billion to pay for his proposed
border wall, the White House has sent a list of $18 billion worth of suggested spending
cuts to Capitol Hill.
The cuts are wide-ranging but include programs like medical research, community development
grants, and building new roads and bridges, according to a report by The New York Times.
Because the list of suggested cuts are not being presented as official administration
proposals but rather as �options� for congressional Republicans, they tell us more
about where Trump would like to cut spending in order to pay for his border wall and Pentagon
spending increases � as well as the fact that the administration is flexible in its
approach to what it cuts.
These suggestions have been sent as Congress continues work on $1.1 trillion in incomplete
spending bills that, if left unaddressed, could result in a government shutdown on April
28.
This would be particularly if Senate Democrats choose to filibuster language that explicitly
finances Trump�s proposed border wall (which they have promised to do), as well as if many
of the more draconian cuts included in the new suggestions remain in place.
The largest cut would occur in the Senate�s Labor-Health and Human Services-Education
subcommittee, which would see a $7.26 billion reduction to its budget primarily by cutting
grant funding (such as mental health program and spending to the National Institutes of
Health) and by eliminating programs like AmeriCorps.
The next largest cut would be to the State and Foreign Operations subcommittee, including
peacekeeping and foreign aid programs.
Other suggested spending cuts include:
Department of Housing and Urban Development: $1.68 billion
National Institutes of Health research grants: $1.2 billion
Department of Agriculture: More than $1 billion TIGER grants (which fund transportation projects):
$500 million Heat subsidies for low-income Americans: $372
million Environmental Protection Agency: $247 million
McGovern-Dole International Food Program (which feeds millions of schoolchildren throughout
the world): Entirely eliminated Trump�s proposal may be little more than
just a wish list, though.
Republican Sen. Roy Blunt of Missouri told The New York Times that, when it comes to
Trump�s proposed border wall being paid for in the larger spending package, �they
will not pass together.
That�s just my view.� He added, �There is no path to put a supplemental
(wall) as currently described on that package.�

DEDICATION
To loving memories and best friends.
PREFACE
My Bad is a current slang term for today's youth — admitting to a mistake.
In a world where most are eagerly ready to lay blame or accusations on someone else
to mask their own errors — I find this term very refreshing.
At least it's a start, back in the right direction.
LOL
POEM
BROKEN SPIRIT
My broken spirit remains idle In reflective contemplation
Mulling the diversity of angst Dwelling within the sub-zero temperature
Of my ailing soul.
No anger steams, no compunction lingers My vivacious will that eagerly forged the
horizon Simply withers at its core gasp for breath
My broken spirit hinders its own rewards As the fires arrest and detain my ailing soul.
Oh broken spirit weep not my sorrow, Shield my fate from sun's tomorrow
Allow my soul to erect from this wallow My human heart's overwhelmed by shadow
In this prayer, my union be hallow
NEXT POEM
DAWN TO DUSK
In the beginning, from the clay Night was dissipated by the light
Skilled thoughts sculpted the form A silent breath gave life,
The soul gravitated to its core
Dawn to dusk, dusk to dawn Time would spawn longevity
Gilded in the fine essences of shimmery gold The steel strength of platinum
Balances the logic in blindness Initiating life's evolution
The light is present, ever so close Beyond my reach, beyond my touch
These feeling are such — Naked everything revealed
Beyond my reach, beyond my sight As dawn to dusk my soul takes flight
A masculine, muscular image Pristine geometry glistens —
From silence a voice cause the earth to quake Awaking azure eyes of man
Peace rested on the land
Not begotten but created from nothingness Unable to be defined as off-spring
Alien matter of molecules unscattered A feminine DNA soon appeared
The light is present, ever so close Beyond my reach, beyond my touch
These feeling are such — Naked everything revealed
Beyond my reach, beyond my sight As dawn to dusk my soul takes flight
From dawn to dusk, Ashes to ashes,
Dust to dust Back to clay from once all came
NEXT POEM
INSPIRATION
When my heart burst wide open My soul comes soaring out
There's no stopping at the borders Because my love must release its shout
I'm dreaming of never-ending skies and flowing water
Enticed by my world an all that its about A maze of chaos forming logical order
Our love be mysterious, bring on our bout My bright eyes are fully open
The visions fade in and out There's no surrendering of these feelings
Because my love there is no doubt I hear the wisdom calling
Justifying their testament and clout There's no arresting idle verbiage, what true
love's about Because my love, I need not tout
I speak directly from my heart The words have no trouble pouring out
My soul was dying before I met you There's divine inspiration inside my heart
and out
NEXT POEM
LOVE WITCH
As I romance catastrophe my love witch fails To recapture a love my mortal heart will forever
dwell Tea leaves and fortunetellers
deceives and plays upon my woes and ails As the witching hours tow, chime — gothic
bells
I'm forsaken, a zombie, the living dead, I whale
My life's been punctured all wind abruptly ejects thy sails
Romantic gothic mist swoons, fantasies mournfully gel
While my abiding heart neverendingly swells
My love witch conjures up a register of ancient spells
With black cauldron boiling and fuming a spirits ale,
The grim reaper encompass my love with tight strangle
Leaving me petrified, lifeless in this eternal hell
NEXT POEM
DISTANT HORIZON
Off on distant horizon somewhere between north and west
Where land and sky kiss A great force lifts toward the heaven's
Blossoming into a gigantic mushroom Soft and peacefully fluffy as a cloud
It's commanding voice Ripples forcefully across the land
In all directions Pushing its ill froth winds
Reigning majestically, condemningly Obliterating everything, every one in its
path
Merciful to those incinerated instantly Poisoning the wicked to bear their just pain
As the righteous endeavor in pure turmoil Purgatory's blessed playground
Nothing is left unscorn in mist of its Vigorous whaling
North, South, East and West Mellifluous memories swiftly fade, erase
Substituted by urgent acquisition to reassemble The treasured value of life
That mankind in quest has put asunder
NEXT POEM
LEVITY OF PAIN
I trek this lengthy lane of pain With stellar spirit, an body decomposing
Contemplative mind, ailing heart whaling Amidst global triumph where people are insane
Your degree language bounds and kites Nobel honor of diligent soul take to flight
Eagerly sadistic anticipating the wonder of twilight
As innovative visions illuminate my sight
Satan regurgitates his willful reverberate vegetation
Upon global chaos as a murder of crows Select among helter-skelter remains
But I'll not waddle for your sake this lane
My laughter eludes your obtuse mind As I quietly travel down the well worn lane
Laced heavily with sorrow and pain Where I discover not the levity of pain
NEXT POEM
CRUCIFIED
Hear the pattern of water droplets As dark angry clouds clamor a voice,
And cracking crackle spider the sky Randomly illuminating day's night
While my frail body severely trauma Lumbers to bear the massive heavy weight
Of two huge unrefined dogwoods I agonize to endure its wealth of pain
This cross impales thy mortal shell As its woody flesh drinks freely my blood
With the vigor of a well dried sponge Cheering voices surround me in distant blur
Heard and unheard concurrently My vision wanes on this lengthy trek
As my faith causally fades near erasure The scarlet juice expelling every orifice
Mingles with sweet and salty perspiration Moistening thy eyes in a torturous burning
hell The path I tread is paved in stones of glass
Hard earth veined from waters absence Ailing to moist its dried skin with the
Last vital drop of liquid my male body would shed
The zenith rose before thy like venom Eager with greed to consume my life
I felt the burden flee momentarily Kissing the land beneath me hard
When suddenly I felt my body levitate Onto the wood, the pain reiterated its goal
Succumbing to the will of mankind — For a sheer moment I found my peace.
NEXT POEM
FALL IS HERE
What weary wreck I be Now that Fall is here
Oh I do so fear The treacherous cold
Blanketing me an freezing thy bones Fall be just a prelude
To the rushing white wave Of Winter's hellish snow
Fall is here I do so fear Murky Motley hues share
The solid wick cold of bear Why must I be encapsulated my dear
In the arctic ice so far; yet so near My body trembles like witness endear
Images of bloody crucifix aimed fair My thirst be dry but quenched in care
Hold my truths by heart so fair Proclaim thy name with solemn flair
So perchance my visions someday clear You be with me til eternity my cherished dear
Hold my soul by light tethered ropes of fear An unleash my desires that are forever near
Without scruple I endure cold's freezing care
The rapture of Fall is here I do so fear
NEXT POEM
LET THE FIRE BURN
Let the fire burn through the night As our souls soar to such heights
Angels witness this beautiful sight Intently listening, our sweet voices kite
Our smoke tickles the heaven's maze Twisting and turning captive our eternal gaze
How splendidly our souls trek this daze In the cool warmth of Spring's Summer's
laze
Let the fire burn and scorch everything in sight
Allow embers to blacken with the colors of night
As we lay composed arm in arm ever so tight Consuming all treasures of Earthly delights
Let our smoke rise and blanket this craze Let our souls soar and ignite this blaze
Let our love free and released this cage Let the fire burn and dazzle our gaze
NEXT POEM
CATCH ME WHEN I FALL
In every bodies life there comes a time When everything is wonderful
A peace settles in without strife and The world is so kind
Everything appears so beautiful
Like the shining sun there comes a time (It may be falling,) falling from grace
Like a shooting star to the Earth hard Oh — catch me when I fall
catch me when I fall
In the garden of eternal life there comes a time
Where everything is so blissful Contentment is a friend of bleeding knife
and Everything around is my unseen sign
As clouds turn soar miles away from cheerful
Like the shining sun there comes a time (I may be falling,) falling from the grace
Like a shooting star to the Earth hard Oh — catch me when I fall
catch me when I fall
NEXT POEM
THE PRAISING TREE
I live in a world where bogus neighbors lie I live in a world where bogus neighbors kill
I live in a world where bogus neighbors steal
Then on the Sabbath rain came pouring down, Fever stifled unbreathable air
A plunder of thunder chorus ripped through the mist
While lightening promenade across the vast velvet black skies
Consuming the last atom of oxygen When suddenly lightening streamed hard
pulsing a tree in open view then spidering the land
Leaving the tree spilt half in two Its arms outstretched
Reaching toward the Heaven's In worshiping praise
My eyes fail to believe but my heart could see
This was an unbelievable day As I witness the birth of truth
As I witness the birth of the praising tree Imploring forgiveness for humanity
[As the lightening flickered and shadows dance about
The praising tree was transformed into a beautiful sight
Though it never moved from its rooted position It traveled the globe to carry out its mission
I could have sworn I saw it move here and there
From tree to a man and reverse with ease But the land was pitch black as energy released
My only light was the faith growing inside me.]
FALLEN FOR AN ANGEL My story may be the same
In many different ways But there is no longer an Eden
We can explore the world And gently land in Sweden
Though my heart is inundated with great pain In every single cavity, In every bleeding
vain Regardless of how lame
My life will never be the same It's difficult for me to remain faithful
When I've fallen for an angel
Renditions of this age old parable Appear in many different ways
But I must no longer remain deaden When I can expand my beautiful world
And escape the confines of make believin' Tragedy promenades my beaten love insane
In every deduction, In every thought you came Foregoing the redundancy of same
My life now has meaning and aim It's difficult for me to remain faithful
When I've fallen for an angel
Oh, how can I faithfully remain Faithfully yours
It's so hard to faithfully remain When I've fallen for an angel
When I've fallen for an angel
NEXT POEM
VELVET NIGHTS
The night was heavily draped in deep black velvet
One by one a reflecting star managed to pierce such depths
Like exquisite diamonds their radiance glowed brightly
Eager to dance across the vast emptiness of space
Gradually expanding as my thoughts pondered aimlessly
Echoes bounced to and fro my mind's chamber walls
Like the screamer bellowing for his sanity and salvation
Can the rest of the world hear inside my brain?
Is there any purpose?
Is there any aim?
Cleans me now in heaven's baptismal rain
The persistent cries of agony and despair are imprisoning me there
The high-pitched bells constantly ringing imploring me to swear
The theater of satisfaction parades fashionably with devil-may-care
The thoughts, my thoughts rage frantically for release
to inhale deep fresh air A myriad of alternatives entice and dazzle
in promenade as my time draws near
Hear the voice insistently taunting while its evil engrosses my fear
Shortly I'm warmly wrapped in the confirmation of my decision
to commence and adhere
You won't see me crying in rich velvet nights You won't hear me beyond the bright radiance
of stars You won't touch me because I'm no longer
here You'll only witness my kiting spirit bright
As Heaven draws me there.
NEXT POEM
THE CHANGE
I feel the change consuming everything in me
For good or bad it's a necessary need A movement of my spirit's core destine to
be Wealth contemplated as light permits me to
see
Only the blind of cripple thoughts lay and bleed
While wild inclinations await fate's destiny The change ravenously consuming the very essence
of thee No dagger, nor sword wound my flesh deep
As the change is an overpowering key
The change can be agonizing as I plead Contortionist are eager to fill the need
A moment with soul exposed it bleeds When the high moon is bright, I clearly see
There's no cage strong enough to hold me
As the change is taking place wherever I be I feel the hunger and thirst violently supercede
The two have me twisted in a hurricane sea Racing through the blanket of night I see
This is a frightfully incurable monstrous disease
NEXT POEM
MEMORIES ARE FORGIVING
Memories are forgiving when I reminisce Mistakes forgotten like an abandon kiss
When you are near I can never resist Drowning in your aura of moralities bliss
Memories are forgiving when I reminisce The sweet moonlight orchestra commence
Our shadows dance as one beneath thunders mist
Bathed in innocence I felt your angel's kiss
Memories are forgiving when I reminisce Mistakes forgotten like abandon shadows
But what I miss most is your salty kiss And lying in the wind blown meadows
Memories are forgiving when I reminisce Swooning once, you've swooned arms of many
fellow How romantically charming memories exist,
Be still my wakened mind that continually bellow
NEXT POEM
THE SIN
What sin can there be in a world without conscience Where there is no faith and our world prays
to science There can be no sin where there is no Heaven
and Hell As vain mortals we have evolved beyond a soul's
well
But the sin resides in our neglect to recognize The faith that lead us to be baptized
That our soul's would begin anew, sanitized If we fret more and not patronized
What sin can there be that would sin against me
What faith has leaked out unto a world of need
There can be no sin without conscience that bleed
We mortals have evolved beyond need to concede
The sin is diligently fertilized Each time you validate and compromise
As sour water erodes the need to baptize Shadows of sin are seen by open eyes that
recognize
NEXT POEM
KEEP IT REAL
Place aside your fantasy and dreams All the modern conveniences and bling
Inhale deep, exhale hard your weighty steam Welcome with open arms the charms it brings
Come dance with me in fresh Kentucky rain Let your troubles and woes wash and drain
Release your wilds for to long you have tamed Scream and shout to the world your name
In the depths of velvet black this wisdom came
Contemplating deep my mind wondered the aim As I peered light gradually penetrated the
seams But I kept it real and treated each day the
same
Crimson scarlet surveys the dusk and gleam My eyes are fooled by things not as they seem
My soul hesitates this scorching light so clean
Can I keep it real until salvation reign
NEXT POEM
LISTENING
Listen to wind-chimes play as spirits go rushing by
Disguised as a gentle breeze causing fright in daylight
Leaves on trees shiver their dance shaking away fear
The rains sprinkle their blessings then silent to a pause
Are you listening as a choir of natures chorus sighs
No terror is to strong to keep silent what's right
Heaven and Hell are trapped here on Earth my dear
Let me shower you in a love that reports no hidden clause
Devour my soul before the demons chariot as I fly
No disguise can hide these feelings blanketed in the night
Justice is blind like father time this reality I must bear
Listen to the rains pour down on me, I soak it in enjoying the pause
Holy water needs no cause to fall from the skies
Shake the root while the ground rumbles and fight
Just open your eyes let my light in, tear away sweet fear,
While the vultures bellow their song of natural law
I'll be listening, listening Just listening
NEXT POEM
FRAGMENTS OF SCENT
I'm lost in a room filled with paints and oils
I look around but nothings familiar There are pictures on the walls
Of people close though long gone All words have forsaken their meaning
The canvases are blank like my thoughts A crack in time allows minutes to abandon
I gaze out past a broken window pane Looking on to distant soils of past,
Everything by and by is pleasantly similar There are a storm of clouds stalling inside
my head Washing away the greenest lawns
But here and there fragments of scent Capture a present moment
Tears come rushing to my eyes As I stand firmly wondering why?
Moments come and go With lifted veils and disguise
My heart is hardly stone Yet I await time all alone
Desperately imploring familiar scents AVALANCHE OF THOUGHTS
When I was alive all I wanted was you by my side
There were no stories hidden nor little white lies
The world was so beautiful all I wanted was more
But now you head strong out the door As my memories wash from the shore
I lived free for what seems a very short time Tell me now that it was not a veinful lie
I'm dying hard to hear your words once more My heart iced hard to stone
While my soul hungers forevermore You're rushing out with the waves onto the
ocean floor
An avalanche of thoughts come rushing all at once
I feel no control as this life continues to flow
There are many strange people Around me now I don't know
But small fragments come and go I've this feeling as their smiling faces
show
In and out like day and night The terror lives deep within
Awaiting my soul to realize its fight Standing before silver waters
Father time laughs then grins It's no sin to allow the pain to show
There's no shame escaping the demons hold
It's to late to capture this feeling Of white heat and black ashes
Why would I want too - away I let this pain consume whatever it desires
In my world of logical words The script is deep, encrypted to the hilt
Thousands of eyes devour and prey Until all my flesh has been divided
Life is nothing more then a Stairway to Heaven and an elevator to Hell
Black is black, White is white Shadows mere shades of motley hues soured
Escaping to disguised veils of night Hiding eagerly from the purity of light
That's why my eyes can see but have no sight Nature and time have blinded it's witness
Not only of sight but of mind
NEXT POEM
EMPTINESS
When nothingness is all consuming and Darken shadows are violently looming
Behind the barred chambers of your motley mind
Let the emptiness loose and show it the sign
The terror lurks in every hill and valley Like a deadbeat mugger in a Godless black
alley Leave the liquor, Mary Jane and gossip disease
Picket those thoughts that cut down deep and bleed
Happiness scares those that are not familiar Imploring that their new world will be similar
How the fear captures desperate hearts So to twist, bite and tear their lives apart
My heart is a dying clock for their on going pain
Reaching out my hand to aid, no one came Just the emptiness of midnights reign
And the revolving carousel of agonizing pain
Change can not prevail joyously over an unwilling soul
Until their Hell stops burning thoughts of harden coal
Cardboard boxes and a blanket of weather snow Usually brings solace and inner peace with
the cold
Extinguishing a never ending reign of pain And their last whimper went silently lame
Muffled heavily by the subway train, The slow moving traffic and aeroplane
NEXT POEM
BEACON
Heartfelt memories channel the music of my soul
Even the troubles simplify my woes Cause there can be no true happiness without
pain Bring it on — bring on the rain
Each song tuning to an individual ear Washing out bad frequencies along with the
fear Love is faithful treasures keeping me sane
In the mist of Godless storms my seasons came With your undying love I'll never be lost
in the dark Beyond the fog a lighthouse gleams miles across
the park I've given you my word, my heart, and all
it means And when I'm with you my quivering voice
boldly sings For you are the beacon to light my way
When I open my blinded eyes to see I simply can't find the words to say
Just know in my heart I do believe
NEXT POEM
BRIEF SECONDS
My path is not a simple one to tread Along this road that twist and turns
Some bridges are surely left broken While some others wickedly burn
Feverishly the passion mingles both ways No matter what one learns there's no escaping
envy The meek must give way to the jungle savvy
Shades are eagerly willing to embrace a lost soul
In a Godless black world where my heart is a dying clock
Melting in the sands of time and disappearing to memories
Merely waiting to fade into nothingness as once I came
White is all revealing and Black all concealing A rainbow of hues implore to be seen
Brief seconds elapse as I draw a polluted breath
A beacon of piercing light forcefully mauls The barriers to break free in vain
Though the steel bars flex and waver Their hold remain ever strong
My path is long and wide and My stride is left weary
Nothing passes the chambers of my thoughts Except the motley shadows hugging thee now
Welcoming night's darkness Brief seconds flash a white light here and
there Leaking through for brief seconds of weakness
Until an universe of force in concert of a cause
Expands to a zenith and explodes The pieces create the universe within
NEXT POEM
A THOUSAND PIECES
A thousand pieces of glass scatter the sandy dirt beneath my bare feet,
My green plaid shirt waves elegantly like liberty on March windy day
Fresh sea air empowers my lungs as I inhale deeply
Expanding my grand sails forward as destiny planned
No time to lay anchor and wait my excursion must forge onward
Fate does not linger still awaiting insightfulness The mirror glass shards are indeed sharp
But does not pierce the valor of my armor Seagulls soar high about with graceful ease
Fancying natures carousel flow of continues motion
When day leans in and kisses the opening of night
A pale blue moon glows bright against a velvet black night sky
As constellations of twinkling diamonds dazzle in the background
Each serenading my eyes with wonder, with their splendid dance
For an instant, this moment, I've discovered peace and tranquility
Lost in contemplative thought and aspirations A thousand pieces come together as one
NEXT POEM
IN FULL BLOOM
Somewhere in the low valleys between hills and mountains
There stands a mighty oak alone in full bloom Perfect in shape, form and color
Its trunk has withstood the test of time Growing stronger each year and refreshing
its foliage The blistering sun indulges its toll
On drought laden soil severely crack earth Veins of refreshing waters have dried completely
up Not a drop dare moisten the abandon souls
Yet there stands a mighty oak alone in full bloom
On this day a miracle occurred before my unbelieving eyes
The Heaven's opened wide and angels shed their heavy tears
Upon the grand mighty oak No rain bleed away from the tree
The rain was only enough to fill its need No more, no less
Just enough to quench its thirst I ran to this tree, I ate of its flesh, I
drank of its blood No more then to appease my hunger, no less
then to satisfy my thirst A change cascaded over me and ran through
ever fiber of my being My pain and sorrow flew away as the sun's
love beamed upon me My heart began to unthaw, to gleam a fine
red jewel When I could see the beauty, hear a choir
of birds, The world filled fully in high definition
color No channel was left untouched from Heaven's
palette I too had awaken from the drought that deaden
me I too had opened up wide in full bloom

THE RIVER PATH
The river path to arrowhead mainspring Was a magical sight for the beholder
Standing firm was the Golden Apple tree of life
As scripture sang and I listen for the silence Drinking in the knowledge
While a field of flowers sway to and fro With the gentle breeze
Like a dance of contemplative thought — They meditate —
My heart arrest, My soul lifted,
My eyes washed in the light, My body but a mere sculpture
Containing the whole As an universe transpires within

BLANK PAGE
Staring at a blank page is like opening a door to nothingness
But I continue to pass the open windows as they appear
Inking my way via vast darkness of solemn trepidation
My salvation is guarantee through success of this tribulation
Deadness, frozen motion, imprisoned in the moment
Rampant thoughts dissipate eagerly into a vortex
Through this Godless black my heart is like a dying clock
In the stealth of this silence I hear the calling
Much echoes reiterate the reverberating voices chime
The regurgitation of my aches and pains ill my fated time
As inspiration has indeed escaped my mental grasp
Leaving the inking of my creative muse dry and stale
Awaiting me to release the soul from it's fleshy shell
I rip away the barred fabric hiding my earthly skin
And with the same vigor I remove my flesh with zeal,
In this prayer I feel my soul expand into the nothingness
The freedom eases my burden, I feel freshly launder
Renewed, Reborn, FREED Within this instant, darkness became light

DREAM
When day kisses night That's when my torture initialize
Phantom thoughts of chaos As my synapses digitally pixelize
I'm gonna wake up, wake up Yeah I'm gonna wake up
From this nightmare of a dream Put an end to my silent screams
Dusk quickly vanishes from the light Terror quickens my heart to materialize
Water of the blood deeply baptize These Godless nights leave me petrified
I'm gonna wake up, wake up Yeah I'm gonna wake up
From this nightmare of a dream Put an end to my silent screams
Dream a little dream

SHOW ME A MIRACLE
Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle let it be a flood or fire from the Heaven's
Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle even as little as the dead raising from their
graves
I have waited for so long to witness a miracle Have I seen one and missed it I would be hysterical
Lore of ancient times state words that are mystical
Am I falling for a miracle when I should remain logical
Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle allow me to see one turn to a pillar of salt
Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle show me another building of Noah's ark
Presently the world is in decay as chaos blossoms Drought and famine are prevalent at requiem
Ill weathered people rioting in streets of doom
Their fears gather strongly as fires forever loom
Allow the terror of darken clouds to bring on cleansing storms
Allow the waters to disappear and all nourishing food to withered
Allow the fires to be consummate and ever consuming in the clear
Allow me to witness a miracle, a miracle, before I perish to ash
Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle
Show me, show me a miracle, a miracle, a miracle

CHRISTMAS TO ME
O Holy Night Where Northern star is aglow
I pray my prayer For wisdom
For peace For humanity
Unto this night of nights Thousands of years have past
And mankind needs your salvation Rich in spirit with abundance of faith
Your light shines upon the world Of your everlasting love
I hear the angels singing To the new born king
All the holy bells ringing And the world rejoicing
Christmas true meaning
O Holy night, it's a blessed sight Where Northern star is aglow
I send my Christmas blessings To one and all

THE OPEN DOOR
The day will come soon that I will not see the light
I will rest at dark and never open my eyes This will be the peace I've so longed for
As I pass this life through the open door
Soon my child I will no longer behold this sight
Darkness will shadow over me and you'll hear no cries
My soul will linger and travel across these vast shores
Until I have settled earthly ties, desire for even more
This hold on me can not reign beyond the pitch black of night
Unless my ravenous soul remains torn between times I've died
How shall I realize whether I be alive or dead forevermore
Until I can see the light, the light, just behind the open door
I will know of this passing when wind chimes sparkle bright
Rainbows drape gloriously across desert blue skies,
Rains pour heavily cleansing my saintly soul as I soar
Yes, I know these truths as I pass through the open door

ENCHANTED by THE GLORY
Enchanted in the glory My soul radiates beyond the darkness
As your sweet tears drip onto my heart A nourishment beyond compare
There is a sadness for a fractional moment Then I shoulder the burden of your bloody
cross And the thorns pierce my sensitive flesh
Enchanted by the glory
Enchanted by the glory My body feels no real pain beneath your light
Your sweet tears quench my driest thirst Your blue blood appeases my direst hunger
Wisdom flows from your mouth with God's wrath
While there is a happiness within my being I find now, it to be, an everlasting feeling
Enchanted by the glory

BETWEEN WORLDS
I stand here alone on shallow ground With the heaven's above and hell's below
And an Earth corrupt with chaos lull Forest encompassing both sides
Deadening my echoes call The water beneath my feet travels on
Cold, cold as ice Behind me a dam on verge of busting,
I hear its white noisy rushing, In this moment I outstretch my arms
Welcoming the moment I cease
Yes!
Oh yes!
Take me on as I stand between worlds My world's corrupt and devour by chaos
See my surroundings now A tornado wraps around me
Pounding like a hurricane My blood raging within like a volcano
As a lullaby cradles my harboring soul
I stand alone amidst nature on hollow ground With diamonds raining down and gold nuggets
glow And an Earth collapsing time until there's
none Trees sway in angelic orchestra on both sides
Rejoicing my echoes call The water beneath my feet travels on
Clear, fresh as arctic ice Behind me is a clearing ever so promising
I hear its lush silence approaching In this moment I outstretch my arms
Welcoming the moment I exist

CREATIVITY
Living in the land of cosmic thought Where lightning bolts continually strike
Creation is merely and act of indulgence Wavering not to critical inquisition
Harboring no ill will toward diversity As the earth arrest on its axes for and instant
Relieving the chaos that has tattered her so
Abstract wakening glow in splendid awe Where reality stands aback to kite
And the gods of free thought wonder Surrendering not to the punnisher
Whaling loudly of meek scone Scruples collide in the ignition of an instant
Relieving the corruption ladening her so

THE GATES OF DAWN
The gates of a brilliant golden dawn opens, I dare to enter its embrace as angel chorus
amens' A venturous Spring whose beauty gently flows
And the rushing winds sweep heavily as they blow
As revelations bath the deep blacken wells of my eyes
I find no mellifluous engrossing reason today not to die
My body well beaten and impaled by its own scars
Permit no wind full Godless night of monstrous agony bars
The harboring ill sails of a wickedly violent slumber
Burdens my withering frame to its weighted lumber
As revelations pour into deep hollow crevasses of my soul
I seek not a purposeful deduction today to remain whole
Let me welcome the gates of dawn as angels kite,
Allow me to endure the frivolous mundane woes bite
For my strong brave heart eagerly battles the reign
Righteous, willful as the war is only won by the insane
I may be incline to the mellifluous engrossing reason to die
But not to the lame, not prior my last drawn breathe to try

ARMS OF A ANGEL
When I fell from the arms of an angel My heart broke and disappeared
I lift my voice so the message may kite Extinguishing my compunction, erasing my fear
My love for you has not withered My feelings merely endure the years
Though I know within you were right The pain never subsided but held ever so tight
When I fell from your silent Heaven My grave imprinted upon my wary soul
I raised my voice to new heights so that my message would kite
Extinguishing my energies for what could be my dear
My faith expired eternally by the hour waiting my heart to sear
But fate's mysteries ways always leads one to the light
My will remains ever strong as I come to terms and
take to flight

THE UNKNOWN
I stand here upon my fresh lone grave Feeling every thing gradually disappear
As mourners slowly slip away, While dawn draws to mid day
Angels tears are showering on me A Heaven's kiss blessing thee
An orchestra of silence my platinum key I kneel here now for my angel to collect me
I hear solemn voices far and near As the last shadows fade away
Nature's chorus kite in the background Until sections of time are laid down
I can not sleep in final rest Until I'm in the arms of an angel,
A Godless night is approaching With raging storms deafening my ears
Roaring thunder quakes as lightning dare bless A violent dark with its forging light
The mist all encompassing lingers and gathers Beneath my spirited feet where ground is sod
Lumbering this new life erecting from my death Pain has not ceased but by far is less
No harboring will resides in me For my energies have towered beyond you see
To the unknown

RHYTHMIC RAIN
Listening intently to the rhythmic rain dance across my patina weathered tin roof
I lightly closed my eyes and allowed my imagination to run with the swiftness of derby horses
hoofs Welcoming the night with all its mysteries
and wonder My mind relaxes in the warmth of darkness
and ponders Only a faint light cascades into the room
through a window pane As the moon baths the earth driving all insane
Just as my weary body is drifting off to sleep The rhythmic rain taps heavily now with angels
weep As the light fails to fully penetrate the
nights depths While vacant breath leaves the air stiff and
stale Until I catch my spirit again with a quick
and sudden gasp
Escaping the suffocating grasp of death's fatal claws
My eyes pop and my ears enjoy the rhythmic rain
square dance freely upon my well weathered tin roof

WORDS
Words—what meaning they endear I could spill my words with a dragon's fiery

Words—gossip to demean or words designed to
generate a filling smile Words—sharp as Xavier's silvery sword
exuding my royal blood into platinum chalice
The libation—encompassing life taste exquisitely good
So which words will resonant the longest LINGER
Which words will fade before the dawn DISAPPEAR

words offer no pain nor comfort words merely idle until the fumes dissipate

GOD GREW TIRED OF US
Decades have gone as thousands of years have passed
Though the word and faith remain agile and strong
No miracles promenade in the streets as of old
Where are these miracles to sustain us today?
Has God simply forsaken his grand creations?
Or has God grew tired of us and no longer amused?
Leaving us abandon and to our own accord To punish ourselves with our words and actions
Havoc inundates simple minds with no compunction Where are the miracles to refresh the world?
Or is God simply abiding time to hurl his gauntlet?
To stomp his feet and clear us from his thoughts?

Listen softly and truth will set you free If only you can bring yourself to believe
No words can express the wealth of ink in my pen
No paper can capture truth of blood beneath my skin
Nor can I hide these feelings inside I must reserve these thoughts to myself
As you are eager to move on, I could never hold you back

Frozen in the choke hold of continual consumption

SLEEP DEPRIVATION
Sunny springs and whimper wills Alice in Wonderland
The rabbit, a top hat Sinks in depths of dark hole
Open eyes can never be deprived of Mask and disguise

Where that sixties music Puff the Magic Dragon and
Captain Kangaroo Invade my dreams
Memories of a childhood Captured in a video box
Zaa Zam, Hercules and Tarzan
Are heroes of the sun Werewolves and gypsies
Are always there to please me In a time of need
Look close as I bleed Fangs pierce deep tattoos
For my blue blood The drink is smooth and
Inundated with euphoria life, A touch of strife adds soar bite
When moon and sun collide I need not hide from the eyes
Behind the velvet sky Cold hands lift me unto warm arms
In fevered twilight My crystal skull
Can't shatter nor break But releases a sea of ocean lakes
Images of eons Trapped—Awaiting
To be revealed From death comes new life
Symbols are the sign Icons
I have sight to see But I may still be blind
To what's before me Walking deserts of hundreds of degrees
Scarce of vegetation and Deep southern libation
Nothing to frivolous, nothing to mundane My leathery flesh
Shields my evaporating blood A mere skeleton
I be Daring to tread, trekking aimlessly
Through a never ending mirage— Mirage
Feeling like a ragout vagrant In Gucci gold and Armani suit
A blanket of angels dive toward me In a murder of crows
Vultures Eager to pick thy bones
Movement has slowed and The snow is dry
Shadows are my only shade When I elect to lay for end of day
Quiet is silent and Silence brings me an overwhelming peace
While a plethora of thoughts rage Aroma caught on a homeless breeze
As sand hits my frail knees This be my last breath
I fear My final statement
Imprinted in the sands To be erased by lonesome
Prevailing winds For this is my flesh
Partake and it shall Sustain thee
This is my chalice, my royal blood Drink and your thirst shall be satisfied
What other reason would I have died?
If not to offer you a second chance At salvation
Why do you allow my expiration To be in vain?
Just look to the sunny springs and The whimper wills
I'll be somewhere in the grains of sand

LAVENDER LOST
Gathering my thoughts amidst a lavender scent I knew instantly without doubt what this smell
meant Her movement was slow and calculatingly silent
But her sweet aromatic lavender proceeded her this moment,
From behind her cold hands blanketed my eyes Concurrently my heart palpitated, arrested,
as I felt The moment fleeing by as her shadow melts
Feelings cascaded through me like a hot summer rain,
My heart forever sorrows as I watched her spirit whirl the drain
Nature can be so cruel— now she's a lavender lost
a memory, a name
Taken by the ravages of time and circumstance without shame
The present fails a sentence or to cast blame It's a man's nightmare on a never ending
train Her aroma swirls around me in the lavender
captured by my brain
Silence never seemed so appealing—Rewarding Recalling precious memories that are motionlessly
drowning Saving the best times for last may be their
very ending I'll always hold dear the taste of her lavender
in the morning It's a timeless thought—of moments an
a lavender lost

Lies are the weeds that need little attendance to prosper, without proper grooming,
weeding away excessive growth they'll flourish and take over with jungle vengeance—with
time—lies will swivel up and deteriorate from truths brutal bounty and beauty—wilting
away into the nothingness only to be carried swiftly by scornful winds to the unknown.
Lies withering and dying in an unmarked grave where no one knows its name and the
erosion continues to chew and gnaw.
While truth opens up into a magnificence tree of life and love—radiates its glory near

It's yours do as you will—to throw away or watch it grow

Together we'll discover new worlds, as one, we'll run
Toward a fantastic future, a plethora of lessons won
Look at our history, the gods will not shun Look at our here and now as we're eager

THEATER OF MEMORY
My world is a theater of pain When the pills come it will not last
My world is a theater of memory Recollecting on things gone past,
As visual as my current present I've played these memories many time
It's a slide show of a joyful weeping soul I've out lived these precious thoughts
That I share freely with every one else I've seen that look before a many of times
Trying to be polite while not caring to hear Guess I have told these memories to long
Much longer then others can bear
But— I live in a theater of pain—a theater
of memory I live in a theater of pain—a theater
of memory RUSTIC MEMORIES
Rustic cabin, weathered chaps, western decor Well worn beaten boots grace the floor
Cowboy life is simple, cowboy ways are hard Ruggedly poised before a faggot, he strikes
fire
The deep sleepless wells of his dark lazy eyes
Reflect a glint of moonlight sparking them alive
Into the thick of night so boundless, so far, Under deep drawn breath he casually wishes
on distant star
Long cold prairie nights and warm soiled leathers No regrets, never looked back, naturally he
knew better Aches and pains are his slow suicide without
visual trace But in his pocket as silver locket and a piece
of ragged lace
Time has been a wickedly cruel bastard Taking away true love—worst then any disaster
A handful of useless things help recall rustic memories
In this instant, in this moment, in this Godless cemetery
How's a cowboy to kept forging with heart of a dying clock
When he holds the key but lost his precious lock
Time keeps churning the sours of buttermilk As a lone cowboy embraces a handkerchief of
delicate silk
Even the driest Sahara deserts shed a tear No matter how strong or tough lies the fear
Rusting spurs, aged dirty saddle needing repair and oiled
Through sins of penitence the remains are true and loyal
True and loyal are rustic memories A little love needing things to be
True and loyal are rustic memories A solid epitaph this hard cowboy sees

The
Establishment Has Already Acknowledged a Lost Race of Giants
By Jason Jarrell and Sarah Farmer
One of the most controversial subjects regarding the ancient prehistoric cultures of North
America concerns what we refer to as the Unique Physical Types (UPT). For the purposes of
what follows, these UPT are often gigantic humanoid skeletons with hyper elongated or
high-vaulted crania, occasional extra or pathological detentions (including several reports of double
or triple rows of teeth), and are usually discovered in the burial mounds and associated
graveyards of the Adena-Hopewell, Archaic Cultures, and Southeastern Ceremonial Complex.
It is common today for alternative history researchers to tell the story of how these
beings were discovered en masse throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. Historians,
antiquarians, and archaeologists recorded the discovery of the Unique Physical Types
all over the United States, with a large concentration found in the mounds and earthworks of the
Ohio River Valley and along the Mississippi River. These accounts can be found in any
number of county, township, and state histories, as well as anthropological literature from
both inside and outside of the Smithsonian Institution. Here are several examples:
Kentucky: �From a mound on the farm of Edin Burrowes, near Franklin, were exhumed, in
May, 1841, at a depth of over 12 feet, several human skeletons. One, of extraordinary dimensions,
was found between what appeared to have been two logs, covered with a wooden slab. Many
of the bones were entire. The under jaw-bone was large enough to fit over the jaw, flesh
and all, of any common man of the present day. The thigh-bones were full six inches
longer than those of any man in Simpson County. Teeth, arms, ribs, and all, gave evidence
of a giant of a former race�. (History of Kentucky, Lewis Collins)
Jo Daviess County, Illinois: �The mounds on the bluff have nearly all been opened within
the last two or three years�In all that have been opened the excavators have found
in the center a pit that was evidently dug about two and a half feet below the original
surface of the ground�The bones in this pit indicate a race of gigantic stature, buried
in a sitting posture around the sides of the pit, with legs extending toward the center�.
(The History of Joe Daviess County)
�Near the original surface, 10 or 12 feet from the center (of the mound), on the lower
side, lying at full length upon its back, was one of the largest skeletons discovered
by the Bureau agents, the length as proved by actual measurement being between 7 and
8 feet. It was all clearly traceable�� (12th Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology)
Kanawha Valley, West Virginia: �No 11 is now 35 by 40 feet at the base and 4 feet high.
In the center, 3 feet below the surface, was a vault 8 feet long and 3 feet wide. In the
bottom of this, among the decayed fragments of bark wrappings, lay a skeleton fully 7
feet long, extended at full length on the back, head west�. Nineteen feet from the
top�in the remains of a bark coffin, a skeleton, measuring 7.5 feet in length and 19 inches
across the shoulders, was discovered�. (12thAnnual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology)
�Within the village of Brownstown, ten miles above Charleston and just below the mouth
of Lens creek, is another such ancient burying ground�At Brownstown, not long since, two
skeletons were found together, one a huge frame about seven feet in length and the other
about four feet, a dwarf and deformed�. (History of the Great Kanawha Valley)
Mounds in Dunbar and South Charleston recorded by the Bureau of American Ethnology in 1884
Florida: �Pursuing my investigations, and excavating further toward the south east face
of the mound, I came upon the largest stone ax I have ever seen or that had ever been
found in this section of the country. Close to it was the largest and most perfect cranium
of the mound�Near by the side of this skull were the right femoris, the tibia, the humerus,
and part of the radius, with a portion of the pelvis directly under the skull�Anticipating
a perfect specimen in this skull, I was doomed to disappointment, for, after taking it out
of the earth and setting it up, so that I could view the fleshless face of this gigantic
savage, in the space of two hours it crumbled to pieces, except small portions. According
to measurement of the bones of this skeleton, its height must have been quite 7 feet�.
(Annual Report of the Boards of Regents of the Smithsonian)

was the finding of one skull in which the detention reached the unusual number of forty
teeth, the increase consisting of eight additional incisors�The formation of the skull found
in the Larto mound, as compared with those of other localities, is highly anomalous�The
anomaly in these cases cannot be ascribed to artificial disfiguration, for, were it
such, the otherwise symmetrical development of the other parts would be impossible�their
remarkable conformation could not possibly have been the result of bandages or other
external appliances, but was undoubtedly congenital�. (Publication of the Louisiana Historical Society)
Etowah Mound Group: �Grave A, a stone sepulcher, 2.5 feet wide, 8 feet long, and 2 feet deep,
was formed by placing steatite slabs on edge at the sides and ends, and others across the
top. The bottom consisted simply of earth hardened by fire. It contained the remains
of a single skeleton, lying on its back, with the head east. The frame was heavy and 7 feet
long�. (12th Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology)
These examples represent the various anomalous features of the Unique Physical Types, which
were encountered in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Spatially and culturally, they
illustrate the extensive temporal and geographical range of these types. The Kanawha Valley Mound
Builders left their remains in an area where some of the oldest Fayette Thick Adena Pottery
and diverse types of mound construction have been found. It has recently been suggested
that sites in West Virginia may push the �acceptable� beginning of the Early Woodland Period back
to 1400-1300 BC.
The samples from Illinois come from a region where Archaic era mounds have been found,
often with Hopewell Mounds built over and into them hundreds or thousands of years later,
as in the case of Elizabeth Mound 1 and Peter Klunk Mound 7. The Etowah Mound (Mound C)
is ascribed to the Mississippian Cult, dated to 950-1450 AD.

After the Government and Philanthropies took over American Archaeology in the 1900s, the
establishment undertook the policy of flatly denying the existence of anomalous remains.
The actual beginning point for the revisionist tendency in the National Museum was very early.
By 1851, E G Squier was working to debunk theories of pre-Columbian contact, and several
decades later, Gerald Fowke would attempt to discredit and jettison the work of virtually
every researcher in the field up to his day, including the skeletal measurements of his
fellow agents in the Bureau of Ethnology. However, the denial of the Unique Types truly
got underway during the reign of Ales Hrdlicka as the Curator of Anthropology at the Smithsonian
(circa 1903).

�Ales hrdlicka� by Unknown � Archive Museum of Ale� Hrdlicka in Humpolec. Licensed
under CC BY-SA 3.0 via Wikimedia Commons Hrdlicka seems to have made a hobby of constantly
disparaging the notion that anomalous skeletons were ever found. This was done in scholarly
works as well as public venues:
And the �giant� and �eight-foot� skeleton is to this day the almost stereotyped feature
of many an amateur report of a find of skeletal remains in Florida as well as other parts
of the country. All these reports�it may be said once and for all, are exaggerations.
Dr Hrdlicka blames the �will to believe� of amateur anthropologists for many reports
of �discoveries� which find their way to his office with monotonous frequency�the
purported �finds� describe a race of ancient giants between 7 and 8 feet tall with bones
and jaws considerably larger than those living today�Next to human �giants� Dr. Hrdlicka
reports, fancy finds its sway with human �dwarfs�.
Interestingly, Hrdlicka�s name appears in several reports of discoveries of gigantic
skeletons during his tenure at the American Museum:
The skeletons of these Hitherto Unknown American Aborigines Showed They All Ranged in Height
from Six and One-Half to Seven Feet�Excavating in the sand dunes of the sun-sprayed Golden
Isles, Georgia, archaeologists have gouged out the strange record of an amazing prehistoric
race of giants�What manner of men were these, the members of whose tribe all averaged six
and one-half and seven feet tall?�Some of the first skulls to be disinterred by Preston
Holder have already been examined at the Smithsonian Institute by Dr Ales Hrdlicka, foremost authority
on North American Types.
Currently there are a slew of books, DVDs and even at least one TV show documenting
the exploits of modern hunters who are �on the trail� of the anomalous dead, who insist
that if at least one of these skeletons could be found and presented to the �experts�
it would somehow alter the professed paradigm of the establishment itself. However, as we
will demonstrate in part 2, the �experts� have already rediscovered, photographed, and
measured these types of remains.

Illustration from �Mundus subterraneus� � suggesting that fossil bones were from

humanoid skeletons in the burial mounds and associated graveyards of the Adena-Hopewell,
Archaic Cultures, and Southeastern Ceremonial Complex, we will now document the discovery
of the Unique Physical Types (UPT) even after the institution of the mainstream policy of
denial, or �post cover-up�.
The two pre-eminent Adena scholars of the twentieth century were William S Webb (assisted
by Charles Snow of the University of Kentucky) and Don Dragoo, of the Carnegie Museum. When
Webb excavated the Dover Mound in Mason Co, Kentucky, he encountered a group burial of
4 skeletons, one of which represented the Unique Physical Type:
�The remains of burial 40 is one of the largest known to Adena; the skull-foot field
measurement is 84 inches (7 feet).� (The Dover Mound, William S Webb and Charles Snow
1959)
The Burial Census Table mentions that this skeleton had a �very thick� skull and
represented the �tallest Adena male� from the mound. For other burials in the Dover
Mound the Table includes such details as �prominent bilateral chin�, �rugged head and face,
wide bilateral chin� and �High Vaulted, large-faced�. (Webb and Snow, 1959)

�The remains of burial 40 is one of the largest known to Adena; the skull-foot field
measurement is 84 inches (7 feet).� (The Dover Mound, William S Webb and Charles Snow
1959)
The Burial Census Table mentions that this skeleton had a �very thick� skull and
represented the �tallest Adena male� from the mound. For other burials in the Dover
Mound the Table includes such details as �prominent bilateral chin�, �rugged head and face,
wide bilateral chin� and �High Vaulted, large-faced�. (Webb and Snow, 1959)
Webb and Snow also noted the large crania of the Adena, which they partly attributed
to head-boarding:
�Not only do the Dover people show the results of head shaping (deformation), but they exceed
the total Kentucky series in the great width and height of the skull vault!�it is to
be noted that the head shaping�has been extreme in these skulls�These people as
a group�have the highest skull vaults reported anywhere in the world.� (Webb and Snow,
1959)

giants. Artist�s reconstruction of the high skull
vaults reported in descriptions of North American giants. Image courtesy of Marcia K. Moore,
Ciamar Studio. Another feature of the UPTs documented by
Webb and Snow is the massive lower jaw:
�One of the outstanding and un-Indian traits present among the Adena people is their prominent
and often bilateral chins�One of the skulls from the Dover Mound, Burial 25�represents
a bilateral chin with a width of 52 mm.� (Webb and Snow, 1959)
�One of the particular features present in at least one-half of the observed examples
is the great width of the bony chin, formed by bilateral eminences rarely found among
the skulls of the much earlier Shell Heap People or among the later Hopewell People.�
(The Adena People, No 2, by Webb and Baby).
Besides the large skeletal type, Snow noted the discovery of the �Dwarf� type mentioned
in early literature in his observations of the famous Adena pipe from Ross County, Ohio:
�Further evidence of abnormal Adena individuals is portrayed in a remarkable piece of sculpture
in the round-the Adena Pipe figurine�The figure depicted is typical of this form of
dwarfism.� (The Adena People, No 2, by Webb and Baby.)

that he represents a dwarf. The Adena Pipe. His head and torso are large

of the Ohio Historical Society) The text references the excavation of one
of these individuals at Waverly, Ohio. The following description of this burial is from
Gerald Fowke:
��a skeleton of peculiar form. It was not over five feet long, but the bones were
very thick and the processes for attachment of muscles were extraordinary in their development.
The skull was nearly half an inch thick and of unusual size, mostly back of the ears,
though the forehead was full and high. The teeth were large, hard, and but little worn�.
(The Archaeological History of Ohio, by Gerald Fowke, page 372.)
In 1958, Don Dragoo encountered the large Adena type while excavating the Cresap Mound
in West Virginia on behalf of the Carnegie Museum. In a subfloor tomb he unearthed Burial
54:
�This individual was of large proportions. When measured in the tomb his length was approximately
7.04 feet. All the long bones were heavy and possessed marked eminences for the attachment
of muscles.� (Mounds for the Dead, by Don Dragoo, 1963).

(Wikimedia Commons) This discovery, as well as a review of Webb�s
earlier work at the Dover Mound, influenced Dragoo�s remarkable observations on Adena
anthropology:
�Two outstanding traits have been noted repeatedly for this group. One is the protruding
and massive chin often with prominent bilateral protrusions. The second trait is the large
size of many of the males and some of the females. A male of six feet was common and
some individuals approaching seven feet in height have been found, for example, Burial
40 in the Dover Mound and Burial 54 in the Cresap Mound. Some of the females in the Dover
Mound also were more than six feet in height. Not only were these Adena people tall but
also the massiveness of the bones indicates powerfully built individuals. The head was
generally big with a large cranial capacity�. (Mounds for the Dead, by Don Dragoo, 1963).
To Webb, Snow, and Dragoo, the evidence clearly pointed towards the existence of a group of
genetically related elites within the Adena sphere who shared the UPT traits. The true
number of these individuals had been obfuscated by the common practice of cremation:
�If, as the evidence seems to indicate, the burials in the tombs were those of a selected
group such factors would have undoubtedly been of importance not only in the development
of the prominent chin but also in the large stature. If only certain inbreeding individuals
of the total population were members of the �selected group�, genetic factors would
also have played an important part in the establishment of the unique Adena physical
type�How wide-spread throughout the entire Adena population were the unique traits of
the tomb burials is unknown but Snow�s study of the cremated remains from the Dover Mound
indicated that at least some of the individuals among these cremated remains also possessed
the unique traits of the flesh burials in the tombs. Because of the common practice
of cremating most of the dead, we will probably never be able to determine the full extent
of these special traits in the general population.� (Mounds for the Dead, by Don Dragoo, 1963).
The emerging picture is of an elite race within Late Archaic/Early Woodland societies who
were often buried in the mounds, and who represented a type of �royalty�. Among these interrelated
groups were UPTs. This elitism is further evidenced by the presence of extensive child
and infant burials in the tombs, often accompanied by the same exotic goods as the adults including
shell beads and copper rings. Also, dental and bone anomalies have been used to establish
a genetic connection between individuals at mound sites.
Gigantic discoveries are often challenged with the generic statement that average Adena
were between 5�6�� and 5�11�� feet tall, but this argument is a conjecture
of half-truth disguised as science. We are not concerned with the �average� stature
of the Adena populace, but rather the irregular characteristics (and often abnormally tall
stature) of their elite.

(Wikimedia Commons) Besides the professional literature, so-called
�amateur� archaeologists have also chronicled conclusive evidence of Unique Physical Types
with a great consistency to the discoveries of Dragoo and Webb. In 1908, Louis Welles
Murray recorded that at Tioga Point in Pennsylvania, remains of �a skeleton of a man six or more
feet in height� beneath a cist-like grave were found. The grave itself was encased and
moved to the local museum where the bones were studied by hundreds of people. Other
skeletons from this same area �were of unusual size; one, judged from the length of thigh
bone, to be seven feet.� (A History of Old Tioga Point and Early Athens, Pennsylvania,
by Louis Welles Murray.)
In addition to these, Murray documents the examination of a large skeleton by a Professor
Holbrooke:
�Judging by the thigh bone he must have been seven feet tall. The skull was much larger
than usual, very thick, the forehead unusually receding, the top flattened. The jaws were
extremely strong, full of large, perfect teeth.� (A History of Old Tioga Point and Early Athens,
Pennsylvania, by Louis Welles Murray.)
Following the discovery of burials in her own flower garden, Murray embarked on an archaeological
odyssey of her own. In 1921, she published an article for the American Anthropologist,
noting that the femur, jaw, and teeth of one of the seven-foot skeletons was then still
in the Tioga Point Museum. Also included are references to many skeletons between 6 and
7 feet tall, with photographs of artifacts, pottery, and the in situ burial of one of
the �above 6ft� burials. The article also features a photograph of the �Paul Scott
Collection�, described as �a multiplicity of small artifacts, suggesting a race of pygmies�
which included a �miniature amulet and sinker stones.� (Aboriginal Sites In And Near �Teaoga�,
in American Anthropologist 23(2) 1921).
Regardless of the disparagement of amateurs, historians, and antiquarians, the credentials
of Webb, Snow, and Dragoo have never been brought into question. With so many researchers
scrambling today to discover irrefutable evidence of gigantic or otherwise anomalous beings
to prove their existence, the authors question why they do not simply present the works of
William S Webb and Don Dragoo to anthropologists, and more importantly, their audiences.
While the concept of a mysterious and undiscovered race may create an air of sensationalism healthy
for selling books and DVDs, we feel that it is of far more relevance to demonstrate that
the Unique Physical Types were discovered by professionals all the way up through the
20th century, even after the institutionalized policy of denial, and yet the establishment
continues to deny their own documented evidence and the truth.

Jon Hamm and Jack McBrayer Leak All Their Secrets (Before The Government Can Sell Them) - Duration: 2:52.
- Hey, everyone!
Extremely likable and non-threatening celebrity
Jack McBrayer here.
- Extremely likable?
- Jon Hamm here
to help me out. - Hi, everybody.
- Now we all know that the government is now able
to monitor us by hacking into our phones
and TVs and computers.
So, I thought I'd take this opportunity
to just leak all my compromising info myself
before they can use it against me.
Ready?
- I'm very nervous.
- Don't be.
- Okay. - You know, I mean--
- Okay, well let's see where this goes.
- Sure! Okay.
A lot of celebrities lie about their age.
I'm no different.
- True.
- I tell people I'm 43 years old,
but in reality,
I'm a mannequin who came to life but ten years ago.
- In fact, I animated him.
A lot of people don't know this about me.
I'm a wonderful woodworker named Geppetto.
- For the longest time,
I thought the term preemie was short for premium baby,
so I would go around congratulating pregnant ladies
and say, "Oooh, I hope it's a preemie!"
- That's actually true.
- [Jack] Well, that's what
I thought. - I was born a preemie,
and this is what happened.
Premium.
I don't wanna give too much up,
but if we are sharing.
- Okay.
- I will tell you that Jack's genitals
are in fact made of actual junk.
- Found objects, really.
- Yeah, there's a lot of rebar,
some busted concrete bits,
an old soup can,
and a cartoony fish bone.
Oooh, tell 'em about your teeth.
- Yes.
- Actual Chiclets.
He can't really chew anything harder
than a boiled banana because the teeth will just--
- Just turn into
like mushy gum. - Actual chewing gum.
Chewing gum. - Yeah.
- The one thing I will say about Jack,
delightful breath.
Mostly it smells like bananas and chewing gum.
Most people know me from Mad Men.
Most people know you from?
- 30 Rock?
I auditioned for Mad Men.
- [Jon] What part?
- Peggy Olson.
(laughs)
- How did you get your job on 30 Rock?
- I got 30 Rock
because I have a Polaroid of Lorne Michaels
strangling some other Canadian by the river.
- And that's why we need the ACLU.
So, thanks ACLU.
We really, really love what you do
and the inspiration you give us.
- My hair is spun sugar.

You can let go. I'm fine.
What the hell happened?
We just portaled into another realm
Usually, we secure things first,
but your friend gave us no warning.
I assure you, Gideon is not my friend.
I've no idea why he wants me gone,

We have to turn around.
We're headed back to Storybrooke.
That's not possible, Brother.

And Gideon used the last of it.
I'm sorry, Killian.
Well, "sorry" isn't good enough.
Emma's in danger.
She thinks that I've abandoned her.
I have to get back and tell her the truth.
Did you not hear the Captain?
We have no Kraken's blood.
Well, you know who does?
A Kraken.
You can't be serious.

-Whoa! -Whoa.
-[ Laughs ] -Aha!
All right, guys, you ready for this?
-Yes! -Let's do it.
-I'm super ready.
-Very excited.
This is my favorite part of your show.
I know you didn't ask, but it's when you B.S. people.
Say no more. Actually, say a lot.
You guys are gonna be
doing the B.S.ing today.
I'll do the magic.
You're responsible for explaining it away with your B.S.
Okay.
This is great.
You guys, to the room. Joe, you're up first.
-All right, let's go. -Good luck, baby.
-Joe, let's go. -I go here?
I'm gonna show you.
You're messing with forces you don't understand.
I'm the David Copperfield
of B.S.
Oh, my God. All right.
This is the machine.
All right.
You're gonna explain to everybody what's going on,
and I'm gonna work it.
Offer them a sip of coffee.
We have
double-roasted beans.
Double-roasted beans.
Yep.
And you could do this part
if you want.
I lay a bag down on the bottom.
You could put one scoop of beans on top of the bag.
Okay.
And then we cover it up.
And when the light gets turned on,
we just wait for the light to go off.
And when
the light goes off --
it may happen
automatically -- we lift.
Come on. Come on!
No.
Wait a second.
No, come on.
Joe, I hope you know what's going on down there.
-Did you see what just happened?
-What just happened?
I did, and you look like
a chicken without a head
out there.
Get your act together, please.
You're representing us.
Wait a second.
What just happened?
Okay, the Jokers have just seen
how they think the trick is gonna go.
What they aren't aware of is
it will be a little bit different when they try.
I'm gonna figure out how he does this.
I'm gonna figure it out.
It's the real reason we came on this.
We're gonna expose this whole thing.

What kind of coffee is it?
-He got her in! -There he goes.
Not single roast, what you might be used to.
This here's
a double-roast process.
We put it in this machine.
It gets imported in
from...
Cuba.
Cuba. Eastern Cuba.
Really?
Yeah.
And then -- Well, now with the embargo gone...
Mm-hmm.
...it's a whole thing there.
Don't ever go
to Western Cuba.
And you don't want your Western Cuban coffee.
Just only -- Okay.
And then, here you go. And now it's roasted.
And... -[ Laughs ]
Wait, what?!
As a bonus --
As a bonus, you get these panties here, as well.

And you get the dripping panties.
I'm going to pass. Thank you.
You're gonna pass?
Okay, well...

though.
Thank you, thank you.

Have you ever heard of it
before?
It's a good, old-fashioned double roast.
This -- my mother drinks this.
And we just wait for the light.
All day and night, my mother just drinks this.
When the light goes out, it's considered double roast.
Oh, the light's off!
-Yeah. -It's ready.
Oh, yeah, here we go. There we go.
Ohh! [Bleep] -Oh.
[ Laughter ]
What is that? What is that?
Joe: Chinchilla. It's a chinchilla.
Oh, you got to be [bleep] me now.
Just explain.
Uh, explain what?
I don't know what's...
[ Laughs ]
So what you're basically drinking is chinchilla pee.
Yeah, that's the secret ingredient.
Double, double, double. Double roasted.
-Double roasted, though. -You really separate the beans
from the chinchilla pellets.
Yeah, he eats the beans,
and he poops them out.
No! No!
That's the double-roast
process.
Where do I throw this out?
[ Laughter ]
That's what gives it that acidity.
No, I'm good. Thank you.
One shot is enough.
Can I touch him?
Q, you forgot the purpose.
You were supposed to explain what was going on,
and you just fell in love with a chinchilla.
Q: I couldn't possibly
explain anything.
You're throwing a cute, little animal at me.

5 Creepy Uber Scary Stories - Duration: 20:44.
CHILLS
5.
Coming from the Midwest, you anticipate that you're going to run into some unusual people
and things out in this city.
Los Angeles definitely doesn't disappoint.
Whether it's getting held at gunpoint outside of my apartment, or seeing a homeless man
get run down in the streets in Thai Town, all are things that I'm not used to seeing
coming from Indiana.
I'm dime a dozen out here.
I came to Los Angeles to pursue the arts like every other schmo around.
The trick about this city is finding a job where you can actually keep afloat while maintaining
some sort of flexibility so that you can accommodate the volatile life of auditions and meetings.
Uber and Lyft are the perfect solution.
When you sign up for both platforms to drive, you're told that you'll likely get some unruly
folks, and what to do in said situation.
I carry a small knife on me, and even though you're not supposed to have a weapon, just
try and think of how much of a disadvantage you're at if someone is sitting right behind
you.
If you need proof, watch that video of the (former) Taco Bell executive psycho wailing
on the Uber driver in Orange County....yikes.
I've been driving for both services for about a year, and I've never really had an incident.
Sure, a drunk UCLA student tried to punch out my backseat window on a Friday night,
but we've all been there, right?
Everything changed recently, and I haven't driven since my encounter with the person
I'm going to tell you about, and I met her 2 weeks ago.
11:45 PM on a Wednesday night.
Out here, it doesn't matter what night it is, people are out and about, and you rarely
have to wait long for a ride.
I was parked on Santa Monica and Cahuenga when I got the request.
"Pick up Carol located 0.4 miles away."
Let's do this, Carol!
I arrive at the address given, but no one is outside.
Not unusual.
I begin messing with the radio and getting the AUX cord set in case Carol wants to play
some sweet jams, and that's when the rear right side door opens.
I look back, and I'm confused.
Carol is old.
Like, early 80s at least.
Odd to see someone in this demographic this late on a Wednesday evening, but I've had
others in the age range, so I write it off as not a big deal.
"How's it going tonight, Carol?"
I ask.
No response.
She struggles in, and shuts the door behind her.
I glance in my rear view mirror and study her face.
No emotion whatsoever, almost as though Will Smith had just flashed the Nueralyzer in her
face.
"Where are we headed tonight?"
No response.
Can she hear me?
Does she not speak English?
Then my phone beeps, "New Destination Entered: 1900 N Vermont Ave."
I throw the car into drive.
It's not a lengthy car ride, but I figure I'll try one more time.
It's usually pretty easy to gauge if someone wants to chat or not.
"Are you from Los Angeles?"
I ask in one last attempt.
I glance in the rear view mirror and she's staring right at me.
Her gaze is piercing me.
In a deep, shrill voice she answers "I wouldn't worry about that."
Okay, lady.
I get it, I'll just drive you to your destination.
We're a ways off from the destination she entered when she speaks up "Drop me off at
the next corner."
I look up in the rear view mirror, her eyes still upon me, and I ask "Are you sure?
We're still a mile---" "JUST STOP AT THE NEXT CORNER" she snaps at me.
I pipe down.
My full blooded Norwegian father didn't command that kind of attention when he would speak
up in a room.
I wanted her out of my car, so I was happy to oblige and stop.
I pull off on a quiet corner a few blocks off of Fountain Ave.
I slightly turn my head to look over my right shoulder to say something like "Have a good
night," but as I turn my head, I see that she's leaned up in between the seats, just
inches from my face.
I freeze.
I can't speak.
I can't look at her, only down at the median in between the drivers and passenger seats.
Her breathing is something I'll never forget.
It was deep breaths in such a strange cadence.
Almost like an irregular heart beat.
She put her pointer and middle fingers on my shoulder, and my eyes finally meet hers.
I'm terrified.
Her touch was ice cold.
I was wearing my Colts hoodie, and her fingers felt almost like ice directly in contact with
skin.
Her eyes weren't black, wide open, or any other cliché' of a maniac, but sad, almost
motherly.
My terror shifted.
Before I could say anything and before she stepped out of my car, she said three words
that forever changed my life.
"Take the stairs."
I stared back at her with a look that said, "excuse me?"
She didn't repeat herself, but leaned back and away, and exited my car.
I sat there watching her slowly waddle away into a beat up apartment building, and then
out of my sight.
What the HELL was that?
I wasn't going to give anymore rides that night.
I turn off the app, and drive back to my apartment in Koreatown.
Currently that's where I'm sitting, my head still in my hands trying to comprehend what
happened.
I stumbled in to the back door of my 8 floor apartment building that night.
I live on the 7th floor.
This place has been standing since the late 1940s.
By the time I come in it's around 12:30, and not even thinking, I hop up the back stairwell.
Usually I'm lazy as hell, and take the rickety old elevator.
I get to the fourth floor when I hear it.....
SCREEEEECHHHHHH BAM BAM BOOOOOMMM!!!!
An engineer had done repairs the day before, and I remember the note slid under our doors
from the beginning of the week.
April, a BEAUTIFUL girl on the 8th floor had hopped on the elevator to get her laundry
out of the dryer, right at the same time I had gotten home.
Two of the main cables snapped, and the elevator crashed violently down to the ground floor.
Fell 7 stories.
April's family came and got her stuff a week ago, and I'm still thinking about Carol's
warning.
"Take the stairs."
4.
Sharing this experience from literally last night because A) it's creepy as hell (at least
for me) and B)
I want people to learn from my experience.
This is a precautionary tale.
I understand that this was my fault, but maybe if I can help one person by telling my story,
it's worth it.
I don't drink as a general rule, but once a month or so I'll go out with friends and
binge.
My friends and I had a great night at a bar in the city, and they left.
I was chatting up a cute guy so I decided to stay.
I went back to his place.
Post-coitus (very unsatisfying for anyone interested), I'm ready to head home so I call
an Uber to pick me up.
I don't know where I am - I know the city I'm in but not my exact location.
I order the Uber, but it's taking forever ("requesting....requesting....requesting...")
so I cancel it and try again.
Pretty soon a car pulls up.
I drunkenly mumble something like, "s'this the Uber?" and I hop in.
Mistake.
Ubers apparently are supposed to have some kind of marking on the vehicle.
The guy pulls away and starts driving.
We're chatting, I'm fumbling for a cigarette, and the next thing I notice is that we're
headed on the highway, but in the opposite direction of where I thought we needed to
drive.
And we're going at a solid 90mph.
Then I get a call from my Uber driver.
He's there, and I'm not.
Because I'm in a car with a *ing nutcase.
I start texting my friend frantically counting off mile markers for her.
Then I realize that's going to do jack, because she's probably drunk too.
So I call 9-1-1, but I realize this guy is crazy - he's refusing to let me out of the
car - So I've got to do it on the sly.
It's been 40 minutes now.
I'm terrified.
I don't know where I am, I don't know who this is.
We're driving at over 100mph, weaving in and out of traffic.
This guy is trying to get me to hang up my phone call ("yo get off the phone; the * are
you calling?
Better not be a snitch"), and also smoking pot, so I don't want to do anything that might
provoke a violent reaction from him.
I start chatting to the 9-1-1 dispatcher as if it's my friend, praying that they'll catch
on.
"Hey girl, it's me!
Yeah I'm with someone right now, we're driving past [highway exit].
No sweetie, it's not my Uber.
I thought it was, but it's not.
It's a shame you can't come and meet me and bring friends."
Thank sweet baby Jesus, the operator catches on!
He gets me to stay on the phone while he sends cops, and we develop a code - if I see cops,
I'm supposed to casually put my hand out the window, which looks semi normal because I'm
smoking a cigarette.
We pull into some random little housing complex and he busts out some powder and forms two
lines.
I now have confirmation that he does drugs, which means he's probably emotionally volatile.
I relay this to the operator, in code ("oh girl I wish you were here right now, this
guy just busted out the coke!
You'd love it.
He's taking a really big bump, man after my own heart") etc.
Pretty soon I can see the lights from the cop cars so I start waving my hand out the
window - at this point I don't care if he's on to me or not.
I don't know if he has a weapon but I slump down in my seat just in case things get hot.
The cops surround us, get him out of the car, and then (once it's safe) they extricate me
as well.
They whisk me to the hospital for a drug test and evaluation and that's where my story ends.
On my way to the hospital, as I'm explaining all this to the officer, I find out that of
the guy's 40-ish years on this earth, he's been in federal prison for 30 of them, for
violent offenses.
I want people to learn from my mistakes, and if nothing else, call 9-1-1 and STAY ON THE
LINE.
TL;DR by being drunk and stupid, I got into a car with a violent felon who may have been
trying to kidnap me.
With some quick thinking on my part and a 9-1-1 dispatcher sent from the gods above,
I'm okay.
I don't have much by way of proof, but here's a screen cap of the texts I sent my friend,
as well as my hospital band.
On the second pic you vaguely see a bruise forming from where he attempted to physically
grab the phone from my hand at one point.
3.
It was raining.
Dark out.
Real late.
As I drove towards the bar I could already see his silhouette stumbling in the street.
The place had closed and he was waiting for his usual Uber.
As he approached the car he banged his hand onto the hood, as if to slow me down.
He was drunk.
Really drunk.
He carelessly opened the front door and left in, next to me.
The smell of his breath was nauseating.
"Hello Uberrrrr," he slurred.
"Uuuuuu ber.
Mr. UUUUUbuuuu."
Well, none of those were my name.
But he didn't really care.
His eyes fixated on the glow of my phone.
"20 minutes to Crescent Road," informed Miss Navigation.
"In 500ft turn left onto Rowe Avenue."
"You ever wonder what she looks like?"
I actually didn't, but he wanted small-talk, so I gave it to him.
"Nah, you?"
"I don't know…but…"
"In two miles slight right on Rownbun Hill."
"I've done her before!" he gleamed.
"Done her?"
"Well.
the phone!"
He caressed it.
But then he leaned forward.
You ever see that movie Alien?
Remember when the Alien leans into Sigourney Weaver?
Well, this was now him.
I felt his eyes lingering on me.
He was undressing me.
Just staring at me.
"I'm straight," he exclaimed.
"Great!"
I replied.
Why do I care?
"I'm straight.
But you're really attractive!"
Well, that caught me off-guard.I shot him a look that made him back off a little.
"Sorry.
You're just…attractive.
But I'm straight."
"No problem," I reassured him.
I could tell this ride was going to be a long twenty minutes.
"I'm a degenerate."
"Oh yeah?"
"A drug user.
I'm…a bad person.
I've done some really bad things."
"Im sure you're not that bad" I said, trying to up his self-esteem.
But then he stated mumbling to himself.
The only discernible word I understood was "knife."
"What's that about a knife?"
I enquired.
"I have a knife in my pocket.
I want to use it on someone."
"I want to use it on my Ex" he slobbered.
He pressed his head up against his window.
I rolled it down so he could get some air.
With sudden shock impact he started screaming.
This guy was just out of control.
"AAAAAGHHHHH!
AGGGGH!
SCREW YOU!
SCREEEEW YOU!!!
EAT U!!!
EAT ME!"
As I drove we passed through Redwood Canyon Tunnel and navigated the turns of the twisty
and deserted mountainous road.
No cars had past and no cars were following.
This was an incredibly isolated area where if something bad were to happen no one would
know.
Just then his phone rang.
I was surprised because I didn't think there was reception out there.
He put the phone to his ear and starting screaming at the person on the other end.
"What do you mean you're waiting for me?
MORON.
You're an absolute moron.
Yeah, go ahead, cancel the ride.
Moron."
He hung up violently and turned to me.
I wasn't sure if he was going to express his love to me or throw up but it turned out
neither.
"That was another Uber driver.
Said he was waiting for me at the bar and wondering where I was.
The Dumbass!"
I pulled the car over.
He recognized the darkness outside as not the darkness he was used to at his house.
"Where the Hell are we?"
"End of the ride" He might have had a knife but what he didn't
have was the element of surprise.
Or my experience.
I pushed him out and then got out my side.
I was wearing gloves, not because it was cold but because I needed to push him down the
mountain, without it ever getting back to me.
Or to his ex who hired me.
It was an easy accomplishment.
As I got back in the car and drive home I reflected on what went down.
There was one thing that stood out to me as being quite bizarre: his line, telling me
he was straight but I was attractive.
No one had told me that for a long, long time.
It was quite nice, actually.
Five stars.
2.
This happened about a year ago.
I was visiting friends in the city, about an hour train ride from where I lived.
It was getting late and the last train was going to leave in less than an hour.
My friends lived about 10 minutes away from the train station by car so I let them know
I'd need a ride soon.
My friend who offered to drive me earlier that day was too drunk so he ordered an uber
to come get me.
Normally I would just stay the night but I was pregnant in my first trimester and I just
needed the comfort of my boyfriends bed.
We had some time so as he's ordering the first one, he sees the picture of the driver and
cancels it because the man looked "creepy."
The second one didn't look much better but at least he seemed less creepy than the first
(the irony is ridic) He arrives shortly after.
I get in the car and he says my friends name who is a man and I tell him he just paid for
it but that he has the right person.
He asks my name and if my friend is my boyfriend.
I tell him my first name and that no, my friend isn't my boyfriend.
He compliments me and I thank him and try to put in a headphone but he continues to
talk to me about how I deserve a boyfriend (or something along those lines).
Now I must say I know the city very well.
I've lived there before and I spent a lot of time there.
I know exactly how to get to the train station and I always know the best route based on
the time.
It's pretty late on a weekday so there wasnt any traffic and pretty much any way he took
in the right direction would get me there.
He puts the directions in his gps that's propped up on his dash.
It tells him to make a left at the next street---Which is what you'd have to do to get there since
it's a dead end.
We start moving and he suddenly asks if "cops hang out here."
I feel uncomfortable but I figure he just wants to speed a little so I say "not really."
And he suddenly takes a right into a narrow alley before the left ahead.
His gps is telling him to turn around but he's still heading in the opposite direction
so I tell him this isn't the right way and he suddenly starts listening to his gps like
it was just a mistake.
So he says "I'll get you there if you don't mind me speeding" I'm thinking what the * ever
just get me to my train so I say "sure" and he immediately slams his foot onto the pedal
and reaches 50/60 mph before slamming on his brakes at the stop sign ahead (its the residential
part of the city so the speed limit wouldn't have been anything over 25 mph with stop signs
every block).
He continues to do this while following the directions for 2 blocks when he blantly ignores
the gps and starts to head in the opposite direction again.
At this point I'm fully aware he doesn't intend to take me to my train and I'm texting my
friends telling them the situation.
They tell me to come back (it had been almost 10 minutes and we had just gone in circles)
but I'm in desperate need of my comfort so I try again and say "I'm going to be late
for my train this isn't the right way."
He tells me I won't be late for my train even though he has no idea when it's coming.
We go through a light and there's a new camaro behind us (riding his ass because that's just
how people drive around here) and he starts asking why the cops are following him.
I didn't say anything but he keeps asking me and gets louder and louder every time I
don't answer in between him mumbling to himself.
Eventually the "cop car" turns, he calms down and I notice the time.
15 minutes passed at this point and I wasn't even a mile away from my friends house and
I'm definitely not going to make this train.
I tell him to take me back but he insists that I'll make my train.
I was fed up and got pissy with him about the time and told him he had to take me back.
He finally obliged but only after slowing down (almost coming to a complete stop in
an intersection) next to a bus stop where a girl was standing by herself.
He probably noticed my phone buzzing and lighting up so he finally, calmly took me back (down
the street) to my friends' house.
My friends were standing at the door when I got out of the car so I walked up to the
door when I looked back to see him stopped in his car down the street talking to a hooded
person standing on the sidewalk.
My guess is he probably thought I was a tourist (I had a giant backpack and a little bag with
me from night before) and he could take advantage of me so I reported it to uber and the local
uber drivers page in the city hoping this will never happen to anyone.

A couple of days ago myself and a couple of friends went to a large city for a concert.
We booked a hotel just a few minutes from where the concert was supposed to take place,
but 2 days before the trip, it was moved to another venue across town and there was no
time to change our hotel.
It was now about a 20 minute drive across town to get there in a city we were unfamiliar
with.
We decided it would be easier to use the Uber app for the first time and get a ride with
someone who most likely knew where they were going so we wouldn't have to worry about it.
I was a little hesitant about it.
The idea of riding with a random stranger who just downloaded an app and decided to
be an amateur taxi didn't sit well with me, but it was a lot cheaper than a taxi and none
of us had much cash on us, so it was really our only option.
Things started out well enough, we booked the ride, the guy showed up within minutes
and we all piled in.
He was nice enough and we made some small talk for a bit.
Then we get to a residential neighborhood and he tells us we're here.
There was nothing even remotely close to a concert venue in sight.
He tells us that we must have entered the address wrong and we looked it up ourselves
and showed him that we most definitely did not and we are on the completely wrong side
of town.
He gets pissed, reprograms his gps to the correct location and tears off.
No longer driving cautiously and no longer friendly and talkative.
About half an hour later we are finally nearing our correct destination (we were following
along on our own phones gps now) and he misses the exit on the freeway.
Instead of doing what a normal person would and continuing on, taking the next exit or
letting the gps recalculate, he STOPS...ON THE HIGHWAY and looks at his phone to try
and figure out what to do.
He then turns on his flashers and THROWS THE CAR INTO REVERSE ON THE INTERSTATE like he's
going to back up and take the exit.
Needless to say a car comes screeching to a stop behind us, barely missing us.
Unfortunately the car behind them did not.
I will never forget the sound of the people behind us screaming as the back end of their
car came up off the ground they were hit so hard.
Then the guy tells us he doesn't want any trouble and drives off.
At this point we were just telling him to take an exit and let us out.
When he does so, we realize we're on the correct street and about a mile away from the concert,
so we go ahead and have him take us the rest of the way.
We couldn't get out of the car fast enough.
We all stood there dumbfounded and eventually decide we need to talk to the cops.
Luckily there was one working at the concert, so we gave him what information we could,
but it wasn't much.
He basically told us since the guy wasn't physically involved in the accident even though
he caused it, that he wouldn't be in trouble for leaving the scene.
My friend who ordered the ride was looking at his app to see what options he had to report
the guy to Uber and noticed he had charged us double for all the extra driving that was
entirely his fault.
Pretty much ruined our evening and our Uber experience.
We were terrified to take another on the way back but didn't have much choice.
Luckily the ride home was great, the driver was friendly and professional and had us back
at the hotel in 15 minutes instead of the 45 minutes of hell we had endured on the original
trip.

Pikachu Storyline in 3 Minutes and MORE Pokémon Cartoons!!! | Video Games In 3 @Arcade Cloud - Duration: 11:46.
This is the story of Pikachu
from the animated Pokemon series "In 3 Minutes".
Let's thunder, smash, or something...
One morning, a ten year old kid named Ash
wakes up late.
The Pokemon lab, run by Professor Oak,
hands out starter Pokemon to trainer enthusiasts.
Desperate to be the world's greatest Pokemon trainer
Ask asks Professor Oak for any Pokemon
to start his journey with.
Oak gives Ash the only Pokemon he has left,
a disobedient Pikachu.
Pikachu refuses to go inside his Pokeball
and zaps Ash at every chance.
Gary, Ash's childhood rival, mocks Ash at every turn
and aims to become the best, first.
Sometime later, a group of Spearow target the wild Pikachu.
Ash defends his Pokemon from the Spearow
and in turn, Pikachu defends Ash from them.
This marks the start of Ash's and Pikachu's friendship.
They start their Pokemon journey in Pewter City.
Ash challenges the Rock-type Gym Leader, Brock,
for the boulder bash.
During the battle, Pikachu's electric attacks
are no match for Brock's Onix.
Ash forfeits and leaves to train.
Later, Ash re-challenges Brock.
Pikachu beats Brock's Geodude, no problem.
Brock sends out Onix, again.
Onix binds Pikachu.
Ash almost forfeits again
but Pikachu's thunder bolt sets off the gym sprinklers
causing super effective water damage on Onix.
Ash still forfeits the match
because he won with an unfair advantage.
But Brock still gives him the Boulder Badge, anyway
for his honesty and sportsmanship.
Along their journey,
Ash and Pikachu are constantly bothered by Team Rocket
who want to steal Ash's Pikachu
to make their own crime-committing Pokemon henchman.
Ash travels to Cerulean City
where he has a gym battle
with the Water-type Gym Leader, Misty.
During their battle, Team Rocket attack the gym.
Ash defeats them and receives his second badge for doing so.
Ash then travels to Vermillion City
where he duals Lieutenant Surge, the leader of Vermillion Gym.
Pikachu meets his match
when Surge's Raichu comes out to the field.
Raichu is too powerful for Pikachu and sends him to the Pokemon Centre.
Ash considers using a Thunderstone to evolve Pikachu into a Raichu
but they both decide that they don't need it to defeat Surge.
Ash returns to Vermillion Gym
and learns that Surge evolved his Pikachu too early.
Because of this, Ash's Pikachu gets the upper hand in agility
and beats Raichu.
Ash finally wins a battle by beating a Gym Leader
and get's the Thunder Badge.
Pikachu goes on to help Ash win his eight Gym Badges.
Ash goes on to enter the Indigo Plateau Conference,
the Pokemon General Championship Competition.
Ash meets Gary, who is also competing in the tournament.
Gary loses to a Nidoking and drops out of the competition.
Ash goes on and makes it to the top sixteen.
Using what they learnt from their time in the competition
Ash and Pikachu work even harder to become the best there ever was.
Ash and Pikachu's pursuit
takes them through Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova,
Kalos, and Alola.
Along the way, Ash and Pikachu fight and capture new Pokemon,
make new friends, battle Gym Leaders
to cement their legacy in the Pokemon Stadium,
fend of the region's growing crime organisation problem,
stop Team Rocket's attempts at serial kidnapping,
and unlock the secrets of legendary Pokemon
that lay dormant throughout the land,
but not Arcanine, for some reason.
And that's the story of Pikachu in three minutes.

Wounded Ryan faces new battle - Duration: 8:00.
Wounded Ryan faces new battle.
BY SCOTT WONG.
A wounded Paul Ryan is facing another potential crisis over the next month.
The Speaker, who saw his years-long effort to repeal �ObamaCare collapse last week
after a rebellion on the right, must come up with a plan to fund the federal government
and avert a shutdown.
The Wisconsin Republican will face many of the same tricky intraparty dynamics as he
tries to keep the government running.
Funding expires in about a month, on April 28, but the House is taking a two-week recess
in mid-April, leaving negotiators just a few legislative work weeks to reach a deal.
The stakes are extremely high for the GOP.
A government shutdown, similar to the one orchestrated by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and
his House allies in 2013, would confirm what many Democrats and political pundits are already
saying: Republicans, despite controlling the White House and both chambers of Congress,
simply can�t govern.
Two of the biggest hurdles to keeping the government�s lights on are conservatives�
insistence that the spending package include billions for President Trump�s border wall
and that it block all federal dollars for Planned Parenthood.
Trump has requested $1.5 billion in supplemental funding for what he�s called his �big,
beautiful wall,� plus another $2.6 billion in his 2018 budget request.
But Senate Democrats have threatened to filibuster the must-pass spending bill if it includes
money for a wall, sparking a shutdown standoff over one of the president�s chief campaign
promises.
On top of that, some Republicans from border states � including Senate Majority Whip
John Cornyn (Texas), Armed Services Chairman John McCain (Ariz.) and Sen. Jeff Flake (Ariz.)
� are highly skeptical of Trump�s wall, citing concerns about the price tag and private-property
rights.
A trio of House Republicans who represent border districts � Reps. Martha McSally
(Ariz.), Steve Pearce (N.M.) and Will Hurd (Texas) � also have been wary of Trump�s
wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
The Speaker earlier this year called constructing the wall �urgent� and a national security
necessity.
But recognizing the high 60-vote threshold in the Senate, Ryan will be under enormous
pressure to send over a House bill with zero or limited wall funding.
�The border wall should be talked about, shouldn�t be rammed down people�s throats,�
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Sunday on ABC�s �This Week.�
�It�s got a big problem that Republicans in border states are opposing � Texas, Arizona
� because there�s eminent domain, so you have to take private land.
� My prediction: It wouldn�t get the votes on either the Democratic or Republican side.�
The archconservative House Freedom Caucus scuttled the �ObamaCare repeal legislation
on Friday after Trump and Ryan refused to cave to the group�s demands.
The defeat of the bill prompted an aggressive round of GOP finger-pointing.
Trump tweeted that the Freedom Caucus, along with conservative allies Club for Growth and
Heritage Action, �saved Planned Parenthood and Ocare� since defunding the women�s
health services provider had been included in the bill.
Rep. Ted Poe (R-Texas) resigned from the Freedom Caucus.
�Saying no is easy.
Leading is hard,� he said.
Meanwhile, Trump directed his Twitter followers to tune in to Jeanine Pirro�s show on Fox
News shortly before the conservative host launched a broadside against Ryan, calling
on him to resign as Speaker.
Trump�s top aides said the president still has Ryan�s back and had no idea Pirro was
going to rip the Speaker.
For now, calls for Ryan�s ouster don�t appear to be resonating with lawmakers on
Capitol Hill.
Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), who successfully forced then-Speaker John
Boehner (R-Ohio) into an early retirement in 2015, insisted there are �no conversations�
about removing Ryan � a sentiment echoed by some of Meadows�s conservative colleagues.
�Paul Ryan did the best he could under the circumstances to bring together a variety
of different viewpoints and backgrounds of 230-some-odd Republican congressmen,� Rep.
Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) said last week as the health insurance effort crumbled.
�I think that Paul Ryan did a very good job as Speaker of the House, considering the
difficulty of the issue and the variety of the opinions that are reflected in the Republican
conference,� Brooks added.
The Freedom Caucus, which has about three dozen members, has not taken a formal position
on Trump�s border wall.
But the group has shown a willingness to shut down the government over Planned Parenthood
funding, just as it threatened to do in a game of brinkmanship with Boehner in September
2015.
Rather than go along with the group�s demands, Boehner said he would resign the following
month.
Then he struck a two-year deal with then-President Obama that raised the debt limit and set higher
spending levels � an agreement that was meant to �clean the barn� and make things
easier for his successor, Ryan.
Now it�s Ryan�s turn to reach a funding deal.
With the spectacular failure of the �ObamaCare repeal bill, the Freedom Caucus will almost
certainly insist the funding bill include a provision to defund Planned Parenthood.
But Ryan and GOP leaders, while supportive of that provision, also are keenly aware such
a bill can�t pass the Senate.
Ryan spokeswoman AshLee Strong declined to comment on specific provisions that could
be included in the funding bill.
But White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Monday refused to say that Trump would
demand the defunding provision be included in the funding bill, an apparent acknowledgement
of the difficulty of passing it through the upper chamber.
�I don�t want to get ahead of our legislative strategy,� Spicer said.
One senior GOP appropriator said Monday that it�s time for the party to demonstrate it
can handle the basic responsibilities of governing.
�To me, we ought to focus on things we know we can do and we have to do.
We haven�t finished the �17 appropriations bill.
We�re halfway through the �18 fiscal year.
So, I mean, we need to get that done,� Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.) said during an appearance
on MSNBC�s �Morning Joe.�
�We need to think about things like getting a realistic budget done, doing a debt ceiling
vote, which I think will probably have to be bipartisan.�
Tim Phillips, president of Americans for Prosperity (AFP), said his outside conservative group
has not taken any positions on whether the border wall or Planned Parenthood defunding
should be included in the spending bill.
Instead, he said AFP is urging Congress to return to a regular-order budget process that
will help drive down spending.
�For a decade now, we�ve had a catch-all budget process, which is not healthy for the
country and not healthy for restraining spending,� Phillips said in a phone interview.
�We need to get away from careening from fiscal crisis to fiscal crisis.
I don�t think anyone wants a shutdown,� he added.
�We want to see Congress get back to a regular-order budget.
That offers the best opportunity
to regaining fiscal discipline.�
