Lady Gaga Thanks Deceased Aunt for Helping Her to Overcome Drug Addiction

Monday, February 8th, 2010

According to the news of the planet Lady Gaga once took cocaine like a child eats candy. The Bad Romance music video star let slip that the crooner locked herself in her room to snort bags of it to get inspiration for her music. Gaga discussed in her new autobiography:’I believed I was going to die. I would have liked to be the artists I loved, like Mick Jagger and Andy Warhol. Gaga would shut her bedroom door and hear the Cure she used to put Never Enough on repeat and snort cocaine. It was then that she got her spirit from her dead Aunt who expired at nineteen that turned Gaga’s life around. Gaga also recalls, when she was bored performing a song and ripped off her clothing to sit at her piano in her underclothes and fishnet stockings. It was then that Woman Gaga new what form of artist she hankered to become. Gaga dedicated last year’s ‘Fame Ball’ tour to her dead aunt.
Woman Gaga allegedly believes the essence of her dead aunt lives within her. The showy vocalist has been open about her previous experiences with substances, formerly admitting she used to take bags of cocaine on her very own in an attempt to find inspiration for her songs. A new book has claimed Gaga also used to take LSD, and at last stopped experimenting with illegal substances as she felt she had to keep on the work of her father’s sister, an artist who expired at nineteen.

The Legion of Superheroes in Retrospect

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

I wrote this article a few years ago after hearing about the new direction for The Legion of Superheroes. It’s interesting to look at in retrospect.

The Legion of Super-Heroes was the first comic I read. I got in on the Earthwar Sage, where the Legion fought off wave-after-wave of villainy. It turned out the Resource Raiders were sent by the Dark Circle who arranged an invasion by the Khunds, all of whom were the eventual pawns of Mordru. Earth was conquered and devastated. A handful of the Legionnaires remained to stop Mordru. Of course, the good guys won in the end.

Those were the good ole days. Ever since, I have been a big fan of the Legion. Sometimes the stories were good; sometimes, they frankly weren’t. But I was a loyal fan. I liked the comic because it was a thousand years in the DC future. Up until the nineties, that meant the Legion was able to escape the endless crossovers that plagued other comics. You had the rarest of the rare: a relatively self-contained world in one of the big two comic companies.

The Legion also had a quirky sense of humor. It tended to poke fun of the rest of the DC universe and sometimes the comics industry in general, doing so a full ten years before subtle references or clever parodies had become a cliche in the pop culture. The comic had a certain hokeyness that was entertaining, even though the Legion in the 80’s was not the best in the series’s run.

The Keith Giffen run of The Legion was outstanding, because it stood the 30th century on its ear, but in a way that was true to what came before. The Legionnaires had become adults with adult problems, but were the same characters they had always been. Unfortunately, most of the readership did not see it that way. Zero Hour doomed that continuity to meaninglessness, and another Legion took its. The late-nineties version basically mimicked the original storyline from forty years before, but was for a new generation. It took too many of the old favorites and turned them into alien snakes and other silliness. Also, it was apparently easier to travel to the 20th century than it was before Zero Hour, because the new Legion got bogged down in crossover hell. Attempts to boost sales only served to undermine any kind of storytelling potential the new group had. When you have a roster of twenty-five heroes, you need to devote all of your limited space to those characters. That version of the group died, too.

So we have the 2005 version of the Legion. In this universe, the Legion has been around for some time.

Meeting the Birthday Party Deadline

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

You wouldn’t think something so personal would have deadlines, but planning a birthday party, particularly a large one, has deadlines just like every other aspect of life. The good news is that meeting those deadlines can be as easy as setting up a plan.

If you’re going big and themed, try to start planning at least 6 months in advance. This gives you time to make any reservations you might need, particularly for entertainers or space rentals.

Start shopping for themed party supplies and pick things up as time goes along rather than all at once. You can often find products in the off season for less than you would when the season is around the corner. Luau party? Shop in the winter and save yourself some major moolah.

Make sure you keep marking items off your checklist as they are completed. Several weeks before your party, send out your invitations so that your guests will have ample time to R.S.V.P. Plan your menu so that you can shop for food, or arrange to hire a caterer if that is something you need to do. Double check on any kind of rentals you have lined up (bounce house, entertainer, pony ride, etc.) to make sure that they are on the schedule. You don’t want any unpleasant surprises the day of the party! Keeping track of what you need to do and when you need to do it will really help keep your party plans moving smoothly, and your stress levels down. Happy planning!
