Again!? GEEEZ!

Howdy friends and neighbors in the Interwebs out there!

So I have posted about my new job (same as the old job) at Berkshire Coop...
...I have found that many people I work with have the same personalities or types to the ones
at Joe's. There is the struggling musician (many of those), the Quiet ones, the Nice ones, the
conspiracy 'nut', the friendly boss that we don't know what he does all day, the grumpy person
who Barely smiles or enjoys his job, and the Nutcase.
Recently, with the help of friends at work, I have realized that the female Nutcase is trying to
get me interested in her. She IS attractive - yeah I'd do her =) - but I realized that she has problems
and she would be using me for...whatever it is she wanted to use me for...i'm sure it's Not for sex...

Actually I realized this before, myself, but I just wanted some confirmation as to what was going on
cause I haven't been there long - since mid-September of last year - so I didn't know the in's and out's.

Now she is nice and seems nice when she isn't a bitch to her coworkers or moody cause things
didn't go 'her way' or she has to work harder, but...yeah...there is All that Other stuff that makes
me say "yeah No I've been through this and it's poison soooo so are you so No"

I just really wish I could find a woman who Isn't crazy or trying to use me for her selfish means or
is working on her issues to be better for herselfandrealizeswhoIamandthatI'maManandactually
WantsMeforME! AAAHHHHH!

so....there.....yeah.....

also, the job is an hour away and the pay isn't something I can Live off of and I have All these debts
and I feel like I'm choking....AAAAAHHHHHH!
FUCKIT!

anyway
That's all for Now, Space-Pals!

Well That didn't work out....

So Obviously I didn't get back to this on Sunday...
So here we are again, another year and another attempt to restart my blog...
so...as I was saying I have a job...
to give some background, I took 2014 off from working to take care of my parents ( my mother is in her 
early 80's and my step-father, who had a stroke a number of years ago, is in his middle 70's ) and to write 
one or more novels. Since that time, I ran out of money, I didn't finish a novel and my folks got better so I 
had to get a job to pay my bills and debts.
So...I have a job...
...it is much like work at Trader Joe's, retail work, but the pay and benefits are significantly less than Joe's.
which makes sense cause I was at Joe's for almost 20 years and and I've been at this current job since 
September 18th of 2015. It is at the Berkshire Co-op Market in Great Barrington, MA and it takes about
and hour to get to work, so two hours total travel time a day. This comes out to $40 in gas a week so $160 
a month which blows cause I don't make more than $13 an hour and work less than 30 hours a week.
so yes Mucho Suckage right now.
It's a Good job working with Cool people ( a few of the women are HAWT! hehe ) but the gas money per 
month is Killing me. So I am looking for something closer to home...
I've been writing consistently (30 minutes a day) since the beginning of the year and it's made me Very Happy! I feel like something is actually coming together and it feels nature and organic.
Maybe when I get home today I will say more here...

Blows
So...have a job one hour from my home, I like it but it's far away and costly to travel to and from
So looking for another similar closer job
Too bad cause they are cool people but finances and all
Health is eh
So I'll come back to this maybe later today.

Why YOU tellin me what to do....when YOU don't have You own Shit together!?

HEY! I'm Back! AGAIN!


I recently posted THIS on Facebook...


OK Crackbook....here's the deal...
...I was going to cancel my account due to TOO many opinions flying all over you
but that is Exactly what you are about Crackbook! Everyone sharing their opinions whether they are solicited or not about anything from the state of the world to the green lump of filth someone found in their ass in the morning.
It's funny because only on Crackbook can you see someone take part in a debate or quiz or test and post their results....and then slam people for doing it the next day.
YUP! Rigid Opinions, Hypocrisy, and the right to Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Expression, Freedom of speaking our minds! RIGHT Here, online, in America!
and just remember...those whose feel opinions and test/quiz post should be squashed are attempting to squash Everyone's rights as handed down by the Constitution.
Freedom to speak your mind and say 'FUCK YOU!' to everyone!
FUCK YOU EVERYONE!
people make me sick....




I got pissed due to the actions of friends posting stuff all over Facebook, making one post
and then Totally contradicting themselves on the next one! I know that they have a variety of
ideas and opinions and they are entitled to them but to contradict them no more than a day later?
And then go back to doing the same shit before!?
If I wuz dating them I be tearing my hair out right now....which would be painful cause the only
hair I have left is 'round my 'sexy man bits'....OUCH!


Living in America, we are all entitled to our opinions no matter how right or left wing
(whatever the hell that means) they are. However, if people do not have the consistency to say
one thing and stick to it, without contradicting themselves or showing themselves as hypocrites,
then I can't listen to what they have to say anymore.
and that's sad cause my friends are among the smartest, creative, funny and enlightened people
I know. Makes sense cause I'm that way too! hehe


meh. whatever. Freedom of Speech and all that....


That's all for Now, Space-Pals!
Remember: Life (and possibly Your friends) is Insane. You're Not.

Double movie reviw - 'Son of God' and 'Noah'...or....didn't mean to go all religious on yous...BUT...

Hello again folks!
I keep having trouble doing this weekly but I'll redouble my efforts to do so
NOW
TWO Movie reviews...wow...lazy bastard Dave lol....


First = 'Noah' (WARNING: SPOILERS!)


'Noah' is of course based on the biblical passages in Genesis of how Noah was chosen by God
to save the animals of the Earth cause man was corrupt and needed to be...well...Gone.
Saying that this movie takes liberties with the Bible to make the movie more dramatic is a
true understatement. Rock giants help and defend Noah and his family and man's corruption
is not just of the soul but also of the physical and technological kind. Man is seen as having
steam power and almost rifles. It as if the writer and director decided that moral corruption
wasn't enough but they had to put in that humans were destroying the earth, or their little
corner of it as well.
This is not to say that the movie Isn't good. The performances given by all were well done and,
other than one scene where I felt it was slightly overacted by Emma Watson (who play's Shem's
wife), compelling and engaging performances. You care about what happens to this family.
Russell Crowe has gone for a minimalist performance as Noah in depicting his struggles with
what he is to do and how to understand and interpret God's will. This makes the movie more
stressful in discovering how it will end and play out.
As usual, I went to a matinee (to save MONEY!) so I would say if you are interested in seeing this
then, as I do, go to a matinee and save money. It's a good quasi-religious film which uses Noah's
beliefs, faith and devotion to show that good people can overcome bad situations or bad people.


'Noah' gets a Thumbs Up (but not Way up)




Second = 'Son of God' (WARNING: SPOILERS)
( Second warning: being a Catholic myself, Jesus will Always be capitalized as will the words
   'Him' (and related), 'God' (and related) and the like. If you have trouble with this stop reading)


'Son of God' is the story of Jesus of Nazareth from the time when he starts gathering his apostles
to John's vision of Him after Jesus' resurrection while he was in exile. The footage is taken from
the History Channel's mini series 'The Bible' which tried to depict a more realistic view of BC
Israel and the Middle East. The mini series was great and gave a feeling that one could actually
feel what it was like to live then sans heat and little cover.
It is well done and makes the viewer see not just the spirituality and faith of the apostles and
Jesus but also the humanity of them all. You see the astonishment of the people reflected in the
apostles faces when Jesus heals the cripple and tells him to get up and walk. You see the humanity
of Jesus when he stops to speak to children with a smile and joy, even when he is talking about
the destruction of the Jewish temple. Diogo Morgado brings a humanity to Jesus that has not been seen since Robert Powell's portrayal of Him in the 1977 mini series 'Jesus of Nazareth'. Not only
is he charismatic but he is confident and playful, as if he knows what's going to happen before it
does as sees wonder and a little amusement in it. All the parts are well acted and engaging and
Peter's portrayal by Darwin Shaw is strong and confident. He shows how much of a true leader
Peter will become not just in his faith but in his no nonsense, too-the-point bluntness as to what to
believe and how to follow Jesus.
As usual, I went to a matinee (to save MONEY!) but this is a movie that should be enjoyed. If you
want to see 'Son of God' then just go. This is a movie Worth the time and money. It is a good
religious film that shows a realism to the time and a humanity to the story that makes it a Better
movie.


'Son of God' gets a Thumbs Way Up


OK. so I saw 'Captain America; The Winter Soldier' and I'll do a review on that in a few weeks
after most people have seen it so I don't spoil too much of it.
Hopefully tomorrow I will do an actual 'David D. Life Update' blog so stay tuned!


That's All for Now, Space-Pals!
Remember: Life is Insane. You're Not.

Movie Review - Robocop (2014) WOW!

SO
I saw the new ROBOCOP a few weeks ago and have been meaning to say something about it...


SPOILER ALERT!


First, it was GREAT! It was an excellent remake of a great movie! There were many differences and
overall it is really good.
The premise is the same - cop Alex Murphy is severely injured in the line of duty and is used for an
experimental project and giving him his life back - but it stops there. The corporation, Omni Corp., is
looking to put robots on the streets of America to aid in defense and crime prevention and control.
The government has said NO and Omni Corp. is looking to 'work around' this no. In walks what is
left of Alex Murphy. Murphy and his partner, John Lewis, are after a crime boss. The boss gets word
of this from dirty cops and Murphy is blown up in a car bomb. Murphy gets used for Omni Corp's
project and Robocop is born.
There are many differences in this new version that I found refreshing. Cops going after crime bosses
and doing police work for one and the fact that both Murphy and Lewis are not 'beat' cops but detec-
tives. Lewis being a black man/African-American man was a great modernization, and makes a Lot of sense, as the movie takes place in Detroit, a city with a large African-American population.
In fact, several African-Americans are in this film, most notable one of the dirty detectives, the cap-
tain of Murphy's division, and Cameo's of TV News Reporter/Opinionist Pat Novak played by the
ever vibrant and energetic Samuel L. Jackson
Also, this update makes all the characters more human and thus makes the movie more human, ask-
ing the question what it Really means to Be human. This is a major plot point as most of Murphy's
body is gone. Only his head, hand and respitory organs and heart remain. Murphy isn't so much a
man in a robot's body as he is a robot with human parts and Murphy, well played by actor Joel
Kinnaman, struggles with this and how he can be a husband and father to his family when so little
physical humanity remains. He takes us through a convincing journey to his humanity and back to
his family by the movies end.
All the actors and actresses in this film were great and Gary Oldman, playing the part of Dr. Dennett
Norton, adds a great amount of humanity to the film, struggling with what he is creating verses how
to help Murphy save his family and humanity.
The only part of this remake that falls remotely flat is the part of Raymond Sellars, played by Michael
Keaton. Not due to Keaton's acting but due to the ambiguous way Sellars is portrayed through much
of the movie. We know he is just interested in getting robots on the streets of America but he does not
feel sinister or...'Corporate' enough until maybe the third act of the film. Again, Keaton plays this part well but through the script he just doesn't come off as a really bad guy. Just someone looking to make
money and that's were the whole humanizing of this remake fails a bit.
Overall, this remake is Great and shows the humanity of all the persons involved, sometimes to the
slight detriment of the film.
If you haven't seen it, Go See this movie remake! It's worth the time!


( I made this a bit short so if I didn't hit on some things y'all's will just have to go see the movie to get them answered!)
My next movie review will be on 'Son of God' sometime this weekend.


That's all for Now, Space-Pals!
