After the high profile suicides of both Kate Spade and now Anthony Bourdain this is all I decided to post today. I will resume normal posts tomorrow. All I can ask is if your thinking of such a thing please call. People are waiting to hear from you.

Bloggers Meet
I went to a bloggers meet last night, it was to celebrate WordPress 15th Anniversary…well they had cake so I went. Out of the 27 or so people there, only about 6 were actual bloggers. The rest were on the technical side of things, security, theme builders, etc, etc. I think the lot of them were there to get business, while I and the other bloggers just wanted some info about the ins and outs of blogging…hey even after all this time I would not refuse some helpful advice. What I learned was this that most blogs don’t get that many views, really the average is a 120 a week. I was the exception at roughly 600 per day. Because of that, I was asked maybe to do a podcast. If that turns out I will let you know what happens. Other than that nothing, really nothing more than 9 years + of experience hadn’t taught me already. I am really considering not going to another, be we will have to see.
The Lucifer “Furry” episode AKA “Boo Normal”
Finally saw the furry episode of Lucifer “Boo Normal”, episode 25 as it turns out both season as well as the series finale. Having never seen a Lucifer episode before I really didn’t know what to expect. But what I saw was a total mess, I know some furries want this series back badly. But what I saw was a HUGE MESS, first of all, you got your forensics person seeing a ghost, all as they are troubled over personal issues, namely moving back to their hometown. Next, you got the title character and an officer both being outsmarted by a teen. All in a story that goes off in 1000 different directions. I won’t spoil the ending but when what turns out to be the actual murder go on the attack and frankly there is so little evidence against them in RL they could not be charged frankly to me made no sense.
As to the furry part, it lasted roughly 3 minutes and frankly was the best scene in the entire episode. I am not saying that because I am a furry. But because I am a fan of mysteries I have literally seen 100s of different episodes from various series. You know the anime series Case Closed is better than this, and that was made for kids, hell I even go as far as to say even Scooby Doo in its various incarnations is far better than what I saw.
If you want a good lite mystery to check out Miss Fisher Mysteries, which is currently running on some PBS stations. Anything is frankly better than what I saw.

David Lynch Websitcom Rabbits
Originally made in 2002
To quote the article as originally seen on Openculture.com
David Lynch has stayed productive in recent years — putting out an album and reviving Twin Peaks, to name just two projects — but more than a decade has gone by since his last feature film. Still, images from that one, 2006’s Inland Empire, may well linger in the heads of its viewers to this day. Some of the most haunting sequences that compose its three hours include clips of Rabbits, a television show about those very creatures. Or rather, a television show about humanoid rabbits who exchange lines of cryptic dialogue in a shadowy living room located, as the show puts it, “in a nameless city deluged by a continuous rain” where they live “with a fearful mystery.”
If you watch and go Huh?, welcome to the club as I am in that group. Although the rest of the episodes are quite easy to find. I think the bigger question do you want to, meaning if you are a fan of David Lynch you might be happy to find a long forgotten work. But to the rest of us…RUN!!!
