Showing No Mercy!

I preordered Slayer’s “Show No Mercy” 40th Anniversary Edition, Liquid “blood” filled vinyl directly from Metal Blade Records shop. It was priced at $199.99 + sales tax; and friend thought that I was crazy. I’m a huge fan of Slayer and it’s worth the price.

Shortly after the preorder was sold out, numerous posting on eBay priced this limited edition vinyl at $999.99 and supposedly sold out too. I do despise eBay scalpers. They shouldn’t be allowed to resell preorders.

Now that the actual product is delivered, the price has gone down to $800.00 and $699.00 on eBay.

Scalpers are profiting from true fans.

Grape Tomato Cat

We bought some Grape Tomatoes earlier today.

As usual, it only took a few seconds after we set the box down.

She might look scraggly, you would have understand that because she is at least 20 years old.

Three Years to the Day

The failure to recognize history would be the downfall of human existence. We human are hardwired to self-destruct, as James Hetfield said.

We think it is easy to rewrite our memories through denial and ignorance. What we do and what we are doing about it will determine what we will do.

It is a lot easier to revert to our primal selves and throw away the progress we made as civilized society. we will only fool ourselves if we do that.

What happened in days of the past should guide us in the days to come.
