So it's not perfectly in focus.. sue me!? xD
Anywho.. I'm now in Colorado :)
My cousin and I have extreme plans for this week. :DDDD
Went into Hot topic last week and saw this Stranger things Dustin Henderson pop #1781 and thought he looked so cute that I had to buy him. Paired him with my littlest pet shop german shepherd. Thought they looke cute like their about to go out to have an adventure.

Imagine yourself at this concert... which by the way, I saw these guys live a few times, once in particular about 10 years ago and I got in a wrestling match with a 350 pound dude over a drum stick that was thrown into the crowd.... I won.
Anyhow, this is another special edition photo with an accompanying "strobist info video" since it was so well received last time. It is truly a challenge jamming in all that info into 90 seconds when there is so much to talk about!
So this leaves everyone here with only one thing left to do — check out the setup, camera, & strobist info video. Cheers
This is my friend Siunik.

I saw this one once before in stores but it was well over a year ago and I hadn't seen him since at all even though I've looked on multiple occasions. I found him hiding behind some other Pops at Hot Topic today, I have the normal version already but the Hot Topic variant is partially clear and I love the Cheshire Cat so I couldn't resist ^^;

Shot at Simi Valley Town Center that was opened to the public last year.
We lived in Simi Valley for almost three years before moving to Granada Hills, a distance of about 15 miles.
----------------------
Some notable facts on Simi Valley, Ventura County, CA.
* The home and resting place of former President Ronald Reagan.
* Ranked as one of the safest places in the U.S.
* The movie Poltergeist was filmed here.
* Rodney King's trial was moved from LA to Simi Valley.
* Had suffered one of the biggest fire in recent history (October 2003) just before Arnold Schwarzenegger became Governor of California.
------------------------
BTW, I forgot to mention that I was asked again by security to stop taking pictures. Security informed me that it's forbidden. What the hell is going on in this part of the globe? Photography is becoming a taboo?
I find it funny how this is all over Tumblr still and I took this or Daniel took it with my camera. -___-

They were remodeling the Hot Topic at the Cary mall, so they moved it to an empty storefront. Unfortunately, the empty storefront used to be a Bath and Body Works, so some of their gothiness has been rained on.

The photo is of me holding a sign during a weekly peace vigil that I participate in.
The war was based on knowingly false pretenses. Iraq did not attack the USA. Iraq, in fact, did not pose a threat, or even so much as threaten to attack the USA. As such, the US invasion of Iraq was aggression. The occupation is a war of aggression. Hence, it is illegal. (The war is also undeclared, which makes it even further illegal.)
There is an abundance of information, publicly available, in order to make the claim that members of the Bush Administration knowingly made false statements to craft the conditions necessary for invasion. Numerous false statements were made over a period of years in order to attempt to draw a connection between the Iraqi government of Saddam Hussein and Usama bin Laden's al Qaeada. They lied for the purpose of creating an environment of acceptability for war.
These connections between Saddam Hussein and UBL, as well as statements about an alleged threat to the USA from Iraqi WMD, were blatantly misleading at best and malicious intentional conspiracy to defraud the United States at worst.
Here are some links:
1) The center for Public Integrity released a study that chronicled over 900 false statements (in regard to the threat from Iraq), which were made by members of the Bush Administration during a period of two years following September 11th, 2001 when the WTC towers were destroyed. www.publicintegrity.org/WarCard/
2) The United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan has told the BBC the US-led invasion of Iraq was an illegal act that contravened the UN charter. news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3661134.stm
3) Lt Ehren Watada refused to deploy to Iraq because of his belief, which is based on a deep and careful understanding of the war, that the war is illegal. His website is a great resource about the legal problems in re: the war in Iraq. www.thankyoult.org/
4) Human Rights and Constitutional Rights (HRCR) has a collection of links and information to help ground yourself in the legal understanding of what constitutes an illegal war: www.hrcr.org/hottopics/Iraq.html
There are so many resources available. For example you can start by perusing any one of these websites.

Complete withdrawal must be the goal. The best avenue toward achieving that goal is to restore stable civil society in Iraq. Stable civil society can be achieved through economic opportunity. Economic opportunity can flourish when the basic elements of civilian infrastructure are up and running, schools, hospitals, water, sewage, electricity. The US military will be able to make a responsible - a gradual - withdrawal in the presence of a stable civil society (one that is not rooted in bribes and corruption.)
The US military must stop using bribes, and weapons as incentives. The mission must be changed from fighting an insurgency, because antagonism will only serve to provoke animosity and opposition. The US must begin the process of rebuilding the civilian infrastructure - much of which remains in a state of disrepair.
70% of Iraqis do not have reliable, safe or consistent access to potable water (www.mcclatchydc.com/homepage/story/21753.html also see www.oxfam.org/en/news/2007/pr070730_iraq_humanitarian_cri.... This does not reconstruction make.
There is a humanitarian crisis in Iraq.
Reconstruct Iraq. Show the Iraqi people that the US cares for their well-being. We have the power. Now we have our mission. Let's make it so.

BACKSTORY: Got up around 7:15AM, made it out driving by 7:51 AM and went out until around 1:30PM for a total of 5 hours, 39 minutes. Spent $73.00 plus ~$7.98 gas for 41 miles of driving (15.1 mpg @ $2.94/G), for a total cost of $80.98. We drove to 64 yard sales, stopping at 22 (34%) of them. We made 49 purchases (50 items) for a total estimated value of $743.64, leading to a profit/savings of $662.66. So in essence, we multiplied our $80.98 investment by 9.18X. (Also, if you think about it, the profit counts for even more when you consider that we have to earn $~755 on the job, pre-tax, in order to take home the $662 in cash that we saved. How long does $662 of disposable income take to earn, vs the 5.65 hrs we spent here?) Anyway, this works out to a *post-tax* "wage" of $117.29/hr as a couple or $58.64/hr per person.
