It is not uncommon for loners to sort of lose it and become so unhappy to the point that they finally snap lets say and decide to take out their frustrations of being so unhappy in life against everyone they believe has wronged them and anyone who gets in their way. Charlie Manson is a pretty good example of this.

Which is why we as a society need to keep a better eye especially on kids who struggle to be social and are either isolated voluntarily or by others. And see if we can reach them before their isolation gets to the point that they can’t take it anymore and take it out on anyone who comes near them. Which I believe is the boiling point that Samantha Bachynski reached. And then coming across a young man who just got of prison and is starting to go psycho himself just made of a deadly combination here.

Henry Higgins: Who Was Richard Nixon

With all due respect to BBC, I don’t think you can explain who was Richard Nixon in under an hour. To explain someone as the narrator in this film said is one of if not the most fascinating American politicians whose ever lived, you probably need a mini-series. A three or four-hour film. If you try to cover Nixon and just focus on Watergate or the criminal conspiracies inside of the Nixon White House, or the checkers speech, the House Un-American Activities Committee, you’ll only get part of his life story and not even half of that. And to cover those things alone, you would probably need three hours to do that.

And for the admirers of Dick Nixon and people from the outside looking in who are simply interested in learning about the man, focusing on his rags to riches story and being born in the valley and rising to the top of the mountain, ( to paraphrase President Nixon ) again you would need probably weeks of reading and watching films about the man. Nixon’s public service career goes from World War II in the early 1940s serving in that war, all the way up to leaving the White House in 1974. With Congress, the Vice Presidency, his role of the GOP comeback of 1966 and 68 and even winning the Presidency in 1968 in between.

You could read series of books and watch series of documentaries about the man’s foreign policy accomplishments including ending the Vietnam War alone. Or his push to move America off of foreign oil with a national energy policy in 1973. His push to reform Welfare in 1969 that became Welfare to Work in 1996. His push to reform American health care and health insurance in 1974, that became the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Even if you watch this entire film about Dick Nixon, again you may get part of his story, but ending it with so much more to learn about the man.

David Frost: ‘DIANA DORS – END OF THE YEAR SHOW – 31 DECEMBER 1983’

DIANA DORS - END OF THE YEAR SHOW - 31 DECEMBER 1983 - CHANNEL 4

Source:Jim Proby– English Muffin Diana Dors in either late 1983 or very early 1984.

“DIANA DORS APPEARED ON THE LIVE EXTRAVAGANZA COMPERED BY SIR DAVID FROST – END OF THE YEAR SHOW – TRANSMITTED OVER 31 DECEMBER 1983 AND INTO 1 JANUARY 1984.

THIS EDIT IS ONLY DIANA’S BRIEF APPEARANCE AS THERE WERE MANY GUESTS AND ARTISTS APPEARING I ONLY KEPT THIS BRIEF CLIP. SOUND IS AFFECTED BY MY RECORDING. DIANA REFERS TO THE POPE FORGIVING HIS ASSASINATION ATTEMPT. SHE ALSO REFERS TO LIZ TAYLORS LATEST ROMANCE.

THIS WAS TRANSMITTED LIVE AND WAS 4 MONTHS BEFORE DIANA’S DEATH ON 4 MAY 1984. IT WAS NOT THE LAST INTERVIEW OF DIANA. THERE WAS A LATER LONDON WEEKEND CHAT APPEARANCE ON THE 15 JANUARY 1984.”

From Jim Proby

I think Diana Dors and Denis Norden had the best two lines or really topics in this video. They were talking about Elizabeth Taylor saying that Liz hardly got married in 1983. And Diana adding that Liz is finally in love now. No, really, she’s actually in love this time.

Liz Taylor was a great actress, perhaps the best ever, as well as a beautiful, adorable, very sexy, woman, similar to Diana Dors. But one of the things that Liz was famous for was getting married. Why, because she got married a lot. Sort of like the heavyweight boxing champion who’s been world champion several times. But a big reason for that is because he’s lost the title several times. Well, Liz Taylor lost the title of wife several times and a big reason why she was married six or seven times in her lifetime.

The Alfred Hitchcock Hour: The Lonely Hours (1963) Starring Gena Rowlands

Source:IMDB– Hollywood Goddess Gena Rowlands guest-starring on The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, in 1963.

“A mother of three notices that her baby son fascinates the lady renting a room in her home.

When ‘Vera Brandon’ (Nancy Kelly) returns to the room she rented as Mrs. JA Williams, there’s a nameplate on the door that indicates the same. However, when she opens the door to enter the room, the nameplate is no longer there.

The evil or twisted nanny scheme has already been told many times on small and big screen but it still is enjoying to watch anyway. Here, performances are brilliant and convincing too. The particularity, everyone has noticed, is that there is no man at all in the cast, only the director Jack Smight and the baby Michael. ha ha ha The kind of AH H that I like, because unusual.”

From IMDB

There was once a YouTube video with the whole Lonely Hours episode, which is where this photo is from. But not one video is currently available online right now.

Gena Rowlands

Source:Jennifer Morrison– Hollywood Goddess Gena Rowlands guess-starring on The Alfred Hitchcock Hour in 1963.

The Lonely Hours is about a couple that has a spare room to rent. Even though we never see the husband in this show. But this couple with Gena Rowlands playing the wife have three kids together. A woman who sees their ad in the paper (I guess played by Nancy Kelly) stops by to rent the room at the Henderson’s house. She also ends up becoming the kids babysitter, even though Mrs. Henderson (played by Gena Rowlands) has done no research on the woman who is renting her bedroom. And has no idea who she is, about her history and what she’s doing there. I guess that’s what life was like before the Internet.

Nancy Kelly plays a very lonely woman who almost falls in love with the Henderson baby. Sounds strange but loves this baby so much that she now believes the baby is actually hers and even kidnaps the baby. And that is what Mrs. Henderson finally wakes up and realizes that the new woman is not right and something really bad is going and sets out find her and get her baby back.

Gena Rowlands not only looks like a goddess on this show with her hot, baby-face looks and tall sexy body, but she’s also a hell of an actress and does a great job of playing the loving mother protecting her family from a sick, dangerous ,woman.

I’m going to be real honest here and take note of that, because it might be a while before you see me being honest again. And I go back to being a lying bastard till the Chicago Cubs win the World Series. I had never heard of Coyote Ugly until I saw this movie, well until I heard this movie was out some time I guess in the spring or summer of 2000. I didn’t know that Coyote Ugly was not only a real bar, but a national corporation with a chain or Coyote Ugly bars all around the country. Including Washington where I live around in Bethesda. Some times it takes a big movie like this for me to discover new things.

And then after the movie I see the show Wild On with Brooke Burke that was on E back in the day do a feature about Coyote about a year or so after the movie came out. TLC did a realty show about Coyote like in the spring of 2004 about a women who wants to become a Coyote dancer. And talent scouts I guess from Coyote show her the ropes. CMT launches a series in 2004, a contest really that gives tryouts for Coyote dancers and other employees with the winners getting jobs with the company. And that show lasts for about five seasons or so. And I still have several of those episodes on DVD.

This one movie completely got me into the world of Coyote Ugly. Not just because of the movie, but also because of all the shows about Coyote that came after. This post is not so much about the movie itself, which is a very good movie. But how one movie got a country interested in the Coyote Ugly bar and company. Their women, their dancers and everything that they are about and how they launch the careers of attracted sexy intelligent talented women. Who just need that one break to show the world what they can do.

Watch Mojo: ‘The Watergate Scandal- Timeline and Background’

Posted on January 31, 2015 by Rik Schneider

Attachment-1-1914

Source:Watch Mojo– Richard M. Nixon (Republican, California) 37th President of the United States.

“Though the public only first caught wind of this scandal after the June 17th, 1972 Watergate break-in, the controversy was years in the making. Groups close to the White House used illegal means to assure their president, Richard Nixon, would get elected to a second term. And the Watergate burglary was a chance to spy on the Democratic Party. It wasn’t long before a trail led straight to key people in the Republican Party, and the cover-up began. Intrepid reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, with help from their anonymous source Deep Throat, helped unravel the mess, and eventually the Watergate Scandal forced the first and only resignation of a U.S. president…

From Watch Mojo

I’ll tell you how Watergate was uncovered: ask John Dean, nah, just kidding, but John Dean is how Watergate broke. I’m not saying that Watergate wouldn’t have broken without John Dean. And I’m not talking about the Washington Watergate burglary itself, which is a local Washington police story a point that I’ve made before.

The Watergate scandal that I’m talking about really needs a new name for the scandal that it was, because the real scandal in the Nixon White House was not the Watergate burglary, because President Nixon didn’t order or organize that and it wasn’t the coverup either.

The real scandal in the Nixon White House was what Len Colodny said in this video which was the Nixon secret government. The criminal operations inside of the Nixon White House. The plumbers really and what that unit inside of the Nixon White House and what they were doing. The illegal break ins and intelligence operations done by this group to get intelligence on Dick Nixon opponents and even enemies. And opponents of the Nixon Administration itself.

Where John Dean comes in as White House counsel up until the summer of 1973 when Congress started looking into this story with the Senate Watergate hearings, is that Dean broke what was going on in the Nixon White House. He was in charge of the Watergate coverup, but also knew about the plumbers and everything they were doing.

Without John Dean, we not only don’t know what President Nixon knew and when he knew it. But we also don’t know about the criminal operations that we’re going on inside of the Nixon White House, because Congress was asleep (or drunk, or too busy raising money and running for reelection) and not doing their proper oversight of the Nixon White House.

Thames TV: Diana Dors & Des O’Connor (1984)

Diana Dors

Source:Thames TV– English Muffin Diana Dors in 1982.

“Chat show legend, Des O’connor, CBE discusses ‘Soap Operas’ with Larry Grayson, Diana Dors and comedian Bernie Winters. First transmitted on the ITV network 02/04/1984. Follow us on Twitter.”

Source:Thames TV

Diana Dors is so freakin adorable and then throw in the fact that she’s so funny as well, which I think gives you a great idea of how good of an actress she really was. She was playing comedian on this show and doing it without a script.

Larry Grayson was a British comedian and I imagine a pretty good at that, even though I’m not that familiar with him. And they obviously knew each other very well. But he’s a comedian, his show is supposed to be funny similar to The Dick Cavett Show and he brings Diana on and she plays the role of comedian.

She wasn’t playing the straight woman lets say to Grayson’s funny man and he wasn’t playing the straight man on this show either. They were both very funny and talking about things they’ve worked on and what they have in common. And the chemistry between them was great and it made a for a funny interview. If you want to call it an interview.

Discovery: New Detectives- Trial of The Century

Posted on January 25, 2015 by Derik Schneider
O.J. Simpson

Source: Wikipedia– Of course OJ did it 

I have to believe that looking at the evidence from the outside in the O.J. Simpson case, the case against O.J. Simpson that the man has to be guilty of murdering Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. I think commonsense has to tell you that especially the fact that O.J.’s blood is all over the crime scene. A holy bloody river, game, set, match at least as far as I’m concern. I mean if I’m a prosecutor or a police detective or sergeant and you forget about all the side stories in this case, I don’t think I could dream of a better case to have.

And having said all that with perfect case presented to the Los Angeles Police Department and District Attorney’s Office, they still managed to screw it up. But putting that all aside, if I’m on that jury and even with Mark Furhman garbage in the case that makes him look like he should have no business in law enforcement, except as a defendant, just based on the evidence in front of me I would have to think that O.J. is probably guilty here. Otherwise what is all of O.J.’s blood doing at the crime scene.

One of the best cases possible that you could possibly dream of, at least as far as the evidence. And the jury in that case still screwed it up and that is assuming that they actually went into the case with an open mind and didn’t decide well before that they weren’t going to vote guilty regardless. And just argue that Detective Furhman planted all the evidence against O.J. Including his blood, which would be borderline impossible to imagine. I mean Furhman would’ve had to of stabbed O.J. over and over to get all of that blood out of him.

“In 1985, police in South San Francisco, California respond to a simple shoplifting incident.Within hours, they discover a connection between two male suspects and a list of missing people that spans more than a year.”

From Wicked Attraction

If you are familiar with the Hillside Stranglers in the Los Angeles area, then the serial murderers of Leonard Lake and his buddy Charles Ng should sound familiar to you. Except Lake and Ng murdered in the San Francisco area, but what these four men have in common is that they are all pretty pathetic assholes, really, who had rough upbringings and were never very successful in life really at anything that they ever tried to do, except for perhaps murdering, but go back to them being assholes. Had it not have been for Charles Ng’s addiction to stealing, they wouldn’t have been caught, at least when they did. Had Ng not have been a shoplifter knocking off convenient stores, they might still be in business today.

At best I can gather, God that sounds lame, but as best as I know it, President Richard Nixon made the decision to coverup the Watergate investigation the day his Chief of Staff Bob Haldeman gave him his first intelligence briefing about it. The day after the story broke or something close to that. The decision might have been made by President Nixon to coverup the investigation the day the President found out that people from his reelection campaign were involved in the break in. But the Nixon White House made the decision to coverup the story fairly early on in this story. So Dick Nixon sealed his fate and presidency early on in this story because he’s on tape officially deciding to coverup the story. Without the taping system we wouldn’t have known that.
