Don't forget Valentine's Day is coming up!

20 years since we'd seen each other. Both made mistakes. Wrong turns. Dead ends. All lanes closed. Detours parted us. The world shifted in time and our roads finally merged. We found ourselves together again. Here. In each others arms. Embraced in an everlasting kiss.

Weird dream, I had; Obama was on my iPad, we were gonna get a major High-Speed Rail System in the U.S. to create jobs, I adopted a rescued little orphaned Haitian girl, named her Zooey because of J. D. Salinger, while I was shooting a Toyota viral commercial, a cool mini thriller with Kristen Bell and America Ferrera as Census Workers mistaken as spies. I was worn out when I woke up!

JD Salinger, who wrote the 1951 literary classic and personal favorite, "The Catcher in the Rye," has died at the age of 91. His books were important to so many people, here's an example of his importance by featuring a character many involved in the film have said was based in part on your humble narrator, even using my name.

Picked up my broken car up from the shop, got supplies for the coming blizzard, and I heard the most AMAZING story at the garage! It's really something! You'll dig it! It's so creepy/scary!

Okay, I was told the shop repairs the ambulances of one of the big local hospitals. Seems about 10 years ago an ambulance broke down and they had a wrecker haul it in to the shop. After several hours of it sitting there, due to other vehicles waiting to get serviced, a mechanic set about to repair it just as darkness was approaching, but heard a strange knocking about inside! He opened the back door and strapped on the gurney was a man covered in blood who had been injured in an accident, picked up by the ambulance and on the way to the hospital, the vehicle broke down. It got picked up, but they failed to mention and or simply forgot the unconscious man inside! Happens everyday!

On this Date in 1845 Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven was published under a pseudonym in the New York Evening Mirror.Here interpreted by Christopher Walken, with illustrations by Gustave Dore.

If you've ever had a kitty die, I feel for you, but realize, sometimes they come back! And that isn't always good! Be prepared! The Zombie Kitten Apocalypse is here!
