Time For A Second Opinion!

Time For A Second Opinion!In Poland, a 76-year-old man who had show all the characteristics of death was found alive inside his coffin after a mortician opened it up to retrieve a necklace for his former widow. As the mortician reached around the body to unlatch the piece of jewelry, his hand slipped onto the man’s neck and that’s when he noticed that it now had a pulse. The previously dead man also began to exhibit signs of shallow breathing even though just hours before he didn’t have a heartbeat and his body temperature had begun to cool. The resurrected man was rushed to the hospital where he received a few weeks of treatment before making a full recovery.

Added Some More Items To My Ebay Store (Guitar With Hand Written Lyrics, 4-Track, Horror Movie Shirts)

Hello fiends,

I’ve been going through all the stuff I’ve collected on and off tour for the last few years and realized that I just don’t need all of it—so I decided throw some items up on Ebay. It’ll kill two birds with one stone because I’ll be able to clear out some of this clutter and it will bring in a little bit of spare money that I can put toward the production of the two albums I’m trying to get finished this year. Which means I’ll be able to get them out to you guys a little bit quicker.

Click the link below to check out my latest auctions which include some vintage shirts, brand new horror movie t-shirts, my 4-track recorder, and one of my guitars that I used to write some of the first album, which also includes the original hand written lyrics from ‘Six Foot Deep’ & ‘The Greatest Show Unearthed’ included as a special gift. I’ll be adding a few more things during the week, so please check back for those too.

Another big way you can help me get this new music out quicker, if you haven’t already, is to purchase one of the rare Creature Feature advance copies of ‘Greatest Show Unearthed’ that we still have available. All profit on sales of these CDs goes directly into the next album budget.

They are packaged in a cardboard jacket made to look like an old record sleeve with alternate artwork. The cd itself is also made to look and feel like an old record (grooves and all). These were limited to only a 1000 (of which only one box remains) and come hand numbered on the back cover. We are selling these last remaining cds for $9.99 (FREE shipping & handling) and $12.00 if you live outside of the US. Click below to purchase through Paypal.

Here are a few pics of the alternate artwork:



Last, but not least, I also have a donation box set up here on my website just in case anybody has a dollar or two to spare or a millionaire has money burning a hole in his pocket and wants to make a smart investment.

Donation

Thanks for reading and I hope all is well,

It’s Either Church Or A Bullet, You Choose!

It's Either Church Or A Bullet, You Choose!In Tennessee, a 60-year-old preacher at St. John’s Missionary Baptist Church has been accused of pulling a gun on his 32-year-old son during an heated argument inside its hallowed halls. The incident started when the father confronted his son for missing multiple days of church and the conversation quickly went south. In a fit of warped rational and hope that fear would get his son to attend church weekly, his father pulled a gun on him and threatened to kill his entire family. Concerned for the safety of his loved ones and his own well being, the son took out a restraining order on his father and charges have been filed. Neither the church, nor the pastor will comment on the case and a court date has been set.

Serbian Finger Food!

Serbian Finger Food!In Belgrade, a hunger strike turned into a cannibalistic protest when a Serbian union official cut off his own finger with a hacksaw and ate it. The incident sprang from the desperation of a group textile workers who have been waiting almost two years for unpaid wages and have been forced to survive meagerly on social benefits. The man made the difficult decision to sever his finger and consume it after he overheard a single mother of three at the protest state that she would cut off her own finger just to make a statement. The man acted first to save the woman from having to do the grisly deed herself. The union is already planning further self mutilations unless talks resume and their demands are met.

Cough It Up Crook!

Cough It Up Crook!In Missouri, police were interrogating two suspects accused of stealing a two-carat diamond ring with a hefty price tag of over $20,000 when one of the suspects literally began to cough up the evidence they needed for a solid conviction. Police were led to the suspects when they got a tip from another jewelry store where the man and woman tried to sell off their newly acquired booty after the heist. Unfortunately at the time, all police had to go on was a single eye witness account after the fact and didn’t have enough evidence for a conviction, but then their luck changed. While under going interrogation, a painful coughing fit sized the 23-year-old male suspect, causing him to spit out the stolen ring right in front of their eyes. The couple have been charged with receiving stolen property and the ring has been returned to its rightful owner.

A Picture Is Worth 1000 Words Or In This Case, $3100!

A Picture Is Worth 1000 Words Or In This Case, $3100!In Florida, a man was rooting around the community trash dumpster in his apartment complex searching for secondhand treasure when he came across a discarded photograph of a space shuttle in a damaged frame that just happened to have $3100 in cash tucked away behind it. After the man took his daily discovery home, he proceeded to remove the photograph to replace the frame and found 35 $20 bills & 24 $100 bills concealed inside of it. He reported the money to the police and is fully entitled to the cash if the original owner doesn’t show up after an allotted time period.

Chairs Are For Sitting, Not People!

Death Comes In All Shapes And Sizes!In Cleveland, a 300-pound woman pleaded guilty to the involuntary manslaughter of her 120-pound boyfriend after she sat on him during an altercation and accidentally crushed him to death. The woman spent six long months in jail waiting for her day in court and was finally sentenced to three years probation and 100 hours of community service, nearly avoiding the maximum sentence of five years in jail. The family of the deceased, unhappy with the ruling, felt that the perpetrator got off too easy and that justice was not served. The victim’s sister told reporters, “So, basically you can say that I can go sit on somebody and get probation?”

The ferrets were unharmed and are currently undergoing trauma counseling.

The Iphone App That Saves Lives!

The Iphone App That Saves Lives!In Haiti, an American documentary filmmaker, who was nearly crushed to death after the catastrophic 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck, wouldn’t have survived the ordeal if it wasn’t for his trusty iphone. Badly injured and rapidly loosing blood, the man used the light from his iphone camera to illuminate the rubble in search of a safe place to hold up until help came for him. He found refuge in an elevator shaft and then used an iphone app to learn a crash course in first aid. He was able to make several makeshift bandages and tourniquets to stop the profuse bleeding from the head and leg wounds. He also set the alarm on his phone to go off every half hour, because the app warned of the dangers of falling asleep while in shock from severe trauma. 65 hours later the man was rescued and is expected to make a full recovery.

So, When Is Dessert Getting Here?

So, When Is Dessert Getting Here?In Massachusetts, toll booth workers in the cash-only lane of the Massachusetts Turnpike witnessed a scrumptious clashing of the titans when a semi truck hauling beef collided with another semi truck hauling tomatoes. As a result of the accident, both trucks spilled their contents onto the turnpike, covering all the lanes of traffic in beef sides and pulverized tomatoes. Another semi-truck filled with Styrofoam cups was also involved and purged it’s contents onto the turnpike as well. One driver received minor injuries, but luckily everyone else walked away unharmed. Traffic was diverted so clean-up crews could clear the food from the highway, which took nearly eight hours.
