"Why Thank You, I would Love a Bleeding Cupcake"
I must thank Baking Bites for this one. I love cooking, and holiday treats but this one takes the cake, rofl (sorry for the pun but I could not resist).
This is great it is a vampire cupcake that actually bleeds :) well puree cherry pie filling that is.
Here is the link to the Baking Bites site and on there is a recipe so you too can make them.

I love Irony
This is just great!! I love it when people are so concerned about what is going on next to them that they fail to be mindful of their own stuff. I must say Jesus said it best when he told us to take the mote out of our own eyes before trying to remove the splinter from our neighbors eye. Take a close look at the picture and see if you too can appreciate the irony.

Ninja Poetry
This clip is hilarious. I could not stop laughing. (via homerswisdom’s Videos (Project: Shadow HQ))
Great Ninja Poetry
If you haven’t watched it yet, Ask A Ninja is a must see this week, I could not stop laughing.
Here is a poem from the show.
“There once was a Ninja from Nantucket.
Who kept all his swords in a bucket.
He started to spin,
and exclaimed with a grin,
when I let this thing go
you best duck-it.”
Enjoy the show, I put an embed of it in the video section (click here) ...
Was Dumbledore Gay?
I am still looking for other conformations of this but the Harry Potter Automatic News Agregator is reporting that at her reading in New York, J K Rowling revealed that Albus Dumbledore was gay and that his first love was the dark wizard Grindelwald.
Answering a question … at tonight’s book reading at Carnegie Hall … JK Rowling said she “always thought Dumbledore was gay” and that...
The Magic is Why I Write
I have been reading one blog post over and over again lately. In Neil Gaiman’s Journal, he wrote a wonderful post called “Why write?” celebrating the moment the story comes to life for a writer.
The best thing about writing fiction is that moment where the story catches fire and comes to life on the page, and suddenly it all makes sense and you know what it’s about and why you’re...
The dangers in war to save lives mentality
I came across an article in BoingBoing that talked about a disaster when testing a new mechanized military device “Robot cannon kills 9, wounds 14 in shooting exercise gone wrong.” The story is about an advanced military weapon that is mostly automated only requiring a human from a remote location to push the fire button. During the test something went wrong and the robot started...

Crazy Things episode 1
Hey everyone,
I love watching the TV show “I Love Lucy” mainly because she would find herself in these crazy situations that would just make me LMAO. Afterward, I would find myself thinking that although the situation was hilarious it could never happen in real life. Then the other day I realized that was not entirely true…

Atrium Collapses At Maryland Embassy Suites Hotel
One of the Skylights in the Atrium in Hunt Valley, MD, has collapsed (cbs4.com (or see video here))! There are no reports of injuries, but wow. I was just there in July for the Shoreleave convention. I have stayed there more times than I can count. It is a little freaky seeing it on the news for something like this.
As much as they charge for the rooms, you would think they could prevent...
Convention Hotel Safety
With the roof collapse in Hunt Valley (see story here), it got me thinking about how do you evaluate the safety of the hotel you are staying at while conventioning? As we are looking at adding more conventions onto our schedule, this is something I have been thinking about a lot, but as yet, I have no answers. (via cedorsett’s discussions - Project: Shadow HQ)
