Let the Right One In Takes Top Honors at Tribeca Film Festival!

It is autumn 1981 when the inconceivable comes to Blackeberg, a suburb in Sweden. The body of a teenage boy is found, emptied of blood, the murder rumored to be part of a ritual killing. Twelve-year-old Oskar is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last---revenge for the bullying he endures at school, day after day.

But the murder is not the most important thing on his mind. A new girl has moved in next door---a girl who has never seen a Rubik’s Cube before, but who can solve it at once. There is something wrong with her, though, something odd. And she only comes out at night. . . .

Sweeping top honors at film festivals all over the globe, director Tomas Alfredsson’s film of Let the Right One In has received the same kind of spectacular raves that have been lavished on the book. American readers of vampire fiction will be thrilled!

The sun is void
There is no day
Dark cast over the truth
Hidden evils
Once captive now roam
Where the misunderstood
And the outcasts govern
Where the sidewalk ends
And the world is turned
You may never have seen us
But we're so definitely there
Haunting your subconscious
You're not quite aware
But we'll stay in the shadows
In the dark shades
Of what you don't know.

The Bloody Countess
There is a book by Valentine Penrose which documents the life of a real and unusual character: the Countess Bathory, murderer of more than six hundred young girls. The Countess Bathory's sexual perversion and her madness are so obvious that Valentine Penrose disregards them and concentrates instead on the convulsive beauty of the character.

October 29, 2007 (Salem-News.com / Tim King) -- During my two months on assignment in the Afghanistan combat theater last winter, I covered all kinds of military operations for Salem-News.com and Oregon's KPTV FOX-12. While I was there I spent time on forward combat bases, I went on infantry foot patrols, flew in helicopters, and witnessed levels of disparity that were hard to imagine.

When it happens for the first time
its so real.
It becomes repetive and slow
the same.
Repeating will make you believe?
No.
I become wary. I become nervous.
I think
you are who
You say you are.


Answering lies with lies.
I lie too
Lying about
who you are...where you are...what you do...what you stand for
I do not appriciate lies
I do not appriciate repetition
I want real.
I want truth.
I know what I want.
And its not you.
Anymore.
