I was lucky enough to attend the WWE event tonight and had lots of fun with my brother.  After the show, I knew the WWE jet was going to be taking off and I heard a 747-8 was going to be there as well. The 747-8 was cancelled, and Boeing brung in a Boeing 787 for a flight into Rockford!  So, I got to video a VERY RARE sight! The WWE Private Jet and also a Boeing 787 at the same time!  Talk about a good night. Attending the WWE event and then seeing their private jet and a 787 at the same time.  An awesome night in deed!

The world we live in, is beyond comprehension. The world we live in, is such a diversity. The world we live in, has gone so far but at the same time so far away.

Thinking of how wonderful the world is these days with technology. But at the same time, such a cold hearted place with uncaring and cold hearted people with no manners.

I am glad my parents raised me well. Yes, I am not perfect by any stretch.

But I can say I know how to treat a woman with respect and honesty. I hold a door open for a stranger. I know say please and thank you (most of the time)

But as I sit here and write this, it is sad to see people be cold hearted.

Disrespecting another human. Slamming doors on people instead of holding them open. Fighting with guns and not fists.

I would take the old fashion ways, over the technology anyday.

There is nothing better than a true friend or a friendly neighbor.
That sure beats a computer and any other technology to date, anyday.

Not a lot has happened since my last blog. So this will probably be a short blog just saying hi to everyone who visits my website.

I was hoping to see and photograph the 747-8 passenger test flight to the airport. It was delayed due to mechanical failure. But it is scheduled to come in tomorrow night around 10PM. Which kind sucks from a photographers point of view, because low light photos are hard to do. I do plan on going out there to see it. But it is only on the ground for about 30 minutes, so I know there will probably be many photographers out there to see it as well. Kinda hoping to get on the ramp, because i can get some good photos then. Either way, my plans are to go see the 747-8 passenger plane, when she comes in for the test flight

Heres a photo fo it, I found on the web. Hopefully by this time tomm. night, i will be posting my own photos of it

I wasn’t able to make it to the airport for the photos on Friday morning.  Really bummed me out a bit, because I wanted to get those photos. I feel bad, because they were depending on me. But they know the situation and understood.  Hopefully I can get out there Monday and do them.

After fixing the vehicle, I ended up going out to Rock Cut for a hike. To get some fresh air and clear my head a bit. As I came in off of 173, there was a coyote strolling along one of the paths. I was shocked to see a coyote in the middle of the day and so close to the public.  I went to go take a photo, but by the time i got my camera ready, it had already went into the woods. I wished i would have had my camera ready, because you don’t seea coyote often, and if ya do not like that.  So, I went over to the beach area. There was two people ice fishing. There is no way in hell I was thinking about going on the ice. Because there was water showing closeby, which I assume means the ice is pretty thin. But these two people were out there ice fishing.  As I watched them for a few, and thinking to myself how nuts they were, I decided to go on a hike.  I went on the path on the east side of the lake.  As you all know, when I go hiking, I go bushwhacking. Which means I do not take trails.  I started off on the trail, but it was really muddy. So I went  bushwhacking.  As I am going the the woods, I noticed in that area a lot of deer shit, so that area has a lot of deer. And also it appears someone is living in the woods in that area as well. As many of you know, I can track almost anything. And you can tell the guy was still in the area and had just recently been there.  As I strolled through the woods, I decided to go down by the lake. And I snapped a few photos while I was down by the lake. 

Was nice seeing ducks and the other wildlife going about their daily business without a care in the world.  I thought to myself, how nice it would be, to be a duck. You can fly anywhere in the world and swim all day. And they aren’t hunted that often, so it be a good animal to be.  I stood there and watched them for awhile. Always beautiful watching mother nature at her best.  The warmer weather, the clouds and the sun shining through the clouds, the rays beating down on the lake. The fish casually swimming up the little stream, the ducks talking to one another and swimming. The colors or the field, while the rest rest of the area is “blah” in color because of winter.  It was just one of those moments, I stood there and relaxed and felt at peace.   

To those lovely people:

Only if you would have made it in my house, it would of been a better day for me.

One day you are going to press your luck, and luck will not be on your side. You are playing with fate motherfucker.

You think you can fuck with me and my family. You want to try kicking in my door again, I will fucking kill you, once you put one foot inside my house. I will not hesitate to protect my family and me.

My last few days have been pretty good. I had a wonderful time with my beautiful wife for Valentines Day. I enrolled my daughter into her new school, I went plane spotting and got the opportunity to get up close to the Chicago bulls and Colorado Rockies charter jet.  So, yeah it has been a good few days. 

Below are some photos I took while plane spotting.

I am sitting here and thought I would blog for a few. I have a lot on my mind, and dunno if I want to blog about it all. So this will probably be a brief blog, until i decide to open up more.

I was driving down the road earlier, with my daughter in the car, and this fucking jackass cuts us off. Like an inch from hitting us. Just because some car in front of me was turning, and he wanted to go around us. So the car in front of me turns, and this fucking dumbass comes flying up on the side of me as I am starting to go, and he cuts me off. And then has the nerve to give me the finger.  Um you stupid mother fucker, I was in my lane, you were the fucking asshole that decided to drive on the shoulder and try passing everyone, because you couldn’t wait two fucking seconds. Then you haul ass away, doing like 100 mph. I really was hoping you would of lost control of your truck, and rolled it a few times. Maybe one day you will, with the way you drive. Believe me, you will have no sympathy from me.  You stupid fucking prick. 

I was watching the show Pan Am, one of my favorite tv shows right now. And this lady is like a stalker. She doesn’t want to let go of a guy she loves. And it reminded me of me, back in the day. How many women stalked me. I look back now and can laugh at it, but some of them were down right crazy. I had some trying to climb through my windows, call and follow me all the time, etc…  It is kind of a mixed reaction to having a stalker. It is nice in its own sense, because that person has strong feeling for you. But in the other sense, you have to have them back, and odds are you don’t, so that person gets upset and starts doing stupid things.  It is flattering, but scary.   I know “love” can do strange things and is the strongest emotion a person can ever have. And to mess with that feeling, good or bad, can be very dangerous.  We all fear the word “rejection” and especially by someone who we “love”  Back then, I had feelings for a certain someone. But many had feelings for me. There was no way i could have spread my “love” around, so many women . So I had many stalkers. I really hate using the term “stalker” but it truly was stalking.  I never really understood why so many women liked me, I am not “cute” or have any special qualities or not even rich.  But that episode, really reminded me of my past. Was kinda eerie.

I thought I would update my blog a bit, been kinda slacking the last few days. Been doing a lot of stuff with my website Rockford Scanner, and been trying to organize that a bit.  I was battling the flu there for a few days, and OMG that fucking sucked!  I was running a high temp of 103.6 temp and all the other good shit that comes along with the flu. I feel much better now. Thank god. I would only wish that upon my worst enemies! LOL 

I got to see some old friends yesterday, that is always fun. Wish I had more time to chat with them. But what little I did, it was pleasurable. 

I am not liking this cold weather at all.  I don’t mind the snow. We had light snow yesterday, but it was high winds and made it practically white out conditions at times. And made the streets a little slippery. But man, was it beautiful. It was the big fluffy snowflakes. And with it blowing, it was beautiful!  I am wanting more snow. Hoping we get a good at least one more good snow storm before winter ends. Hell, it is Feb. 11th, and only had one good snow storm this season. Very unusual for our area. But we have had higher than normal temps. so i can’t complain at all

I am craving ice cream right now, A banana split blizzard from Dairy Queen, sounds really good right now.

Wow, I been battling the flu now for three days. This is the third day. I am starting to feel a bit better now. But yesterday was the worst! I got my temp. down to normal now and only have the body aches and headache right now. Much better than it has been the last two days. My highest temp was at 103.7, and all the other good stuff that comes along with the flu. Not fun at all. I am just happy to be feeling a bit better today. 

I tried doing some house work a few ago, and got a lot done, but I think I may have over did it, with me having the flu. Cuz I am feeling like shit again. I figured that if I got active and moved around a bit, I would feel much more better. But I was wrong. I guess that is why the doctors always say rest, while being sick, lol.  I am hoping off of here, and going to rest a bit now.  

Some photos I took earlier today, thought I would share a few of them
