So recently I discovered a new word, Kerblam. Yes, I know it's awesome, and yes, I know it's not in the dictionary, but guess what! KERBLAM!!! The word is (according to Wiktionary) A Verb that means "to explode"
But if you ask stupid people, they will say it is not a word (my apologies to all the smart people who say it's not.)
So on February 11th, KA is hosting a Valentines Dinner Fundraiser (With a special appearence of Rudolph Reisenweber!) For this fundraiser, I have been asked to play background piano music, everybody knows I would have played Muse had it been appropriate to fit the occasion, but, unfortunately, it doesn't. And so I am confused as to what I should play, does anyone have any requests? Ange said something soft and romantic, but I don't know if I know anything like that except for stuff I make up late at night while improvising. And so what do I do? I feel overcome with responsibility... Which obviously means that I have great power.....
Aaaaaaaaand... the Valentines dinner goes KERBLAM!
I found this really cool techno cover of Bend and Break by Keane:

Pt. 3 of Ch. 1: "Clubs and Hammers"
I am sorry that it took so long to post this, I haven't been keeping up in the blogging world. But you should be excited for this! Why? Because this is the final part of Chapter One!!! and although shorter than normal parts, here it is:
Pt. 3
He was content at not being locked up, but was he? He was greatly perturbed that over the years, none of his old friends came to retrieve him. It made him wonder if he had ever really been loved at all. But, strangely enough, he found more friendship at the mining camp with the me much older than he, than anywhere else with boys his age.There, at the mining camp, there was one man he grew to be close friends with, his name was Mike. He was tall, ambitious, and hardly ever slouched. Since his house had much extra space, he welcomed Josiah in to live with him. Since Josiah was living with him, Mike also took the liberty so as to drive him to work each morning.
Josiah's day was long and schedule tight, he worked from 6:00 am. to 6:45 pm. and hardly had any time for other activities. But one day it just so happened that Mike left near halfway through the day to do another side-hand job. He said he would only be gone a few hours, but 7:00 came and went and there was still no sign of Mike. So Josiah started walking home, expecting to find Mike on the couch asleep, and he would have forgiven Mike for forgetting him, but something much different happened. On the walk home, he found a car crashed into a ditch, one that looked suspiciously like Mike's, and sure enough, when he walked closer, there was Mike in the driver's seat, dead. Josiah would have proclaimed this an accident had it not been for the bullet hole through his chest, now arose the question. Who killed Mike?

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good morning!!!
It is Christmas day, and there is hardly anything to do, seeing as there is hardly anyone to do anything with.
I didn't know really what to do, until I got on the computer, and it suddenly hit me! "Why not write a new blog post on Christmas? It's been long enough!" And so here I am. It was interesting, In our Sunday school class at church on Sunday, Mr. Ayers asked us what we normally do for Christmas, I thought it was interesting to hear what others did, going over to other family, watch a movie. As for OUR Christmas Tradition, It is quite simple, The first one up will turn on "It's a Wonderful Life" Which hasn't happened yet today because it is so early. All that's happening now is Hot Chocolate for Me and Benny, but we'll get to watching it later... So we watch It's a Wonderful Life until people show up, then we play games with family. Our Christmas is quite laid back and relaxed, we aren't generally in a rush to do anything, or go somewhere, so it's a fun day for all.
So what do you do for your Christmas? I would love to know, and I'm sure others would as well.
Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Pt. 2 of Ch. 1 "Clubs and Hammers"
Pt. 2
This situation reminded him of the house fire those years ago that had destroyed his family when he was 13. Soon after this incident he felt grievance for the boy which he had despised. The reason for this sadness was no less than remorseful nostalgia, he was suddenly filled up with it no more than 5 minutes after the death. This feeling didn't last, by the next morning, his feelings of remorse were gone. In its place, that old feeling of isolation returned and filled him to the brim. He was a cup, the feeling was the drink, and the cup tipped over due to overfilling. Josiah fell into a rage, a rampaging beast, a juggernaut, anything that stood in the way of this animal was obliterated. There were a few more disappearances, but Josiah was swift, and few of the adults suspected him. But Josiah's rage became uncontrollable, and he left the orphanage, he headed home. He knew not the way, he probably wouldn't even know if he was heading the complete opposite direction. It was a lonely road, a long and winding trail that seemed to lead nowhere.
But soon enough, he came across a town, he went to the nearest building and asked for directions. It was here that he was finally told that he was in a completely different state. As soon as he was outside range of the town, he curled into a ball and wept. He pulled out a blanket to keep himself warm, and the idea suddenly hit him. A light flickered from a street light in the town as he pulled the blanket over himself, and that was the last he ever saw of the town.
His plan worked, his calculations were correct. By the count of 3, he was lying in the ashes of his old home. Here he slept. The night passed slowly and painfully, he was back in a populated and noisy zone. The next morning he was awoken by a prodding with a club, the sun was bright enough in his eyes that he at first could not see who it was, but it was obvious enough that it was a policeman.
He was taken to a jailhouse, the officers disputed over what to do with him until it was finally concluded that (since Josiah spoke so strongly about returning to the orphanage) he would work at a mining camp at the outskirts of the city.

Pt. 1 of Ch. 1 "Clubs and Hammers"
Pt. 1
Tyler. That was his name, the name of the biggest bully at the orphanage. His persecution of Josiah earned him rather many punishments, most of which came from Josiah himself. Punishments could range anywhere from something odoriferous planted in Tyler's bed to his hand being changed into a chicken's head for the rest of the day (which was quite a shock.) All this could be done with a simple wave of the hand. But instead of relenting from his bullying, Tyler's hatred of Josiah only grew...
And so Josiah began to work on a new trick, this he called "Duplication." As the name suggests, this trick would "duplicate" the targeted object. But, obviously enough, by doing the reverse process, you would get the opposite of the desired effect, eradication. Which is why this trick had to be done by a very punctilious person, otherwise the result could go very wrong. It was for this reason that Josiah never performed this trick on human beings.
But it just so happened that one day, Tyler was trying to mess with Josiah's paraphernalia, and, after catching him in the act, Josiah resorted to the trick he had never intended to use: "Duplication." But, in his anger, Josiah forgot his tendencies of carefulness, and so brought about a horrifying result. Tyler had disappeared, and was never found...
