Earlier today, I watched Terrorizer 3.

It was quite gory. I cringed a lot.

I enjoyed it, but I don't know if there's a need to ever see it again.

I had to deal with a lot of stupid in a very short period of time.
It probably annoyed me more than it should have.

It was cool to hear my name mentioned by @franksantopadre.bsky.social during this week's shout-outs on @funforallages.bsky.social.

My free time isn't what it used to be, but I make it a point to listen to that podcast every week. And not just because I was waiting to hear my name.

The only thing that people who buy Tier 2 get is $2.50 less in their account.

This is a picture of the prices of an event. These are the prices TicketMaster is offering for general admission.
You can pay an extra $2.50 for each ticket if you want to. But, why would you want to? You're getting nothing extra.

What type of world do we live in when I can look back at the George W. Bush administration and have a feeling of positive nostalgia?

The Heritage Foundation planted seeds during the Nixon administration. They watered them during the Reagan and Bush terms.
Trump is everything sprouting.

I fear that our only hope is a disaster that makes people see that we need another progressive New Deal.

It worked 100 years ago.

There's a few faces in this video that I did not expect to see included. And to be fair, they didn't have to be.
I think it's a good thing that AEW didn't try to ignore anyone in this retrospective video.
Here's to six years of @aewontv.bsky.social and to many more.

Six years ago, I was in Washington, DC to attend the very first episode of @allelitewrestling.com #Dynamite.

I was very happy to be a part of Professional Wrestling history.
