Where are they now?

You know, there are times in stories where people leave to go somewhere or the story ends and when they do follow-ups with the characters they disappear and are never heard from again.
For example, Radagast the Brown from Lord of the Rings as far as we know, he is not killed, but we never seem to hear from him ever again. What about Bertram, from The Sandlot, the last you hear of him is that, "he got really into the 60's and no one ever saw him again." There are plenty more of these people, what I want to know is, where are they? Where did they Go? That is where I want to go! First off, I'm too young, I missed the 60's so I can't get really lost in them it's not like. There will not be a score, at least not in my lifetime, that will compare to the 60's and 70's . Besides, if it does happen in my lifetime, then there's a good chance I'll be too old and senile to take advantage of it. As for Radagast, he was sort-of a druid amongst wizards so I sorta can relate to the guy, but at least he got out. This has just been one of those days where, I want to sell the house, quit my job and move out west and be a footnote in someone's family tree. A footnote that simply reads, "Moved somewhere out west, no one knows what happened to him."

I at least want to move to the land of Cheers, somewhere "Where everybody knows, your name and their always glad you came." I grow increasingly bored in this world, it is just really boring. I mean I'm not knocking the world God created, I'm really not, I am just looking for more than is capable.

i don't know, i just need a break.

Viva Lost Vegas

Yeah so I'm back from Vegas, we had a great time but I did learn a few things...

1.) Walking from MGM/Grand and Luxor to Circus Circus is NOT a good idea.
2.) If you get a Vegas "Map" from the Alamo/National people, do not expect any thing but the Strip to be drawn to scale. For example, just because even though it *LOOKS* like from the strip it is only two (2) blocks to the Hard Rock Casino/Hotel/Café does not mean that it really is. It's more like six (6).
3.) Don't be cheap, ride the Monorail.
4.) Go to cafe press or some other site that will allow you print up your own shirts, that say in at least, English, Spanish and Portuguese, that says, "No I don't want want to do your 'resort tour.' No I do not want your stripper baseball cards, Leave me alone"
5.) Vegas shows *are* worth going to.
6.) This is the most important thing, ALWAYS look a head to see who will be performing, if we had been staying one more night, I could have gotten to see Prince!

I'll be in Atlanta the first part of next week!
Look for more updates to come!
