Eileen Hart’s response to my comment and my reply, roflmao

 

You can read her response to my comment here:

http://eileenhart.wordpress.com/2011/11/29/the-mental-derangement-of-kurt-sutter/#comment-169 

You can read my reply there also but it’s a bit buried under the 70 some odd comments that her post resulted in. Only one or two positive responses were amongst the entire slough of comments that readers left.

Now, in Eileen’s defense, she only has 2 other blog posts that I could find (I didn’t look real hard). If you’re going to start blogging, no reason not to jump in with both feet. Which she did. Bashing everyone isn’t a great way to start off but then again well, If you read it you know; if not then read it because it is to complicated to explain easily.

My Response to her comment:

1. Mr. Sutter did not send me or anyone else that I know of, to attack, belittle or otherwise harass you.
2. Kurt is an educated individual with a honest to God(that’s how you spell it) degree. Perhaps he is under educated in the areas you have chosen to focus your blog on.
3.Despite my education there are a great many fields in which my knowledge is lacking. That can be corrected, should I choose to take the time to do so.
4. I never said Jefferson was an atheist. I stated that not all of our founding fathers were Christians.
5 Their are many Abrahamic Religions. All worship God, no matter what name they give him (Allah, Yahweh, whatever) It’s still God.
6.The Constitution was a collaborative effort of many men. They all had differing beliefs and desires for what they wanted this Nation to become. the current police state we have developed into is revolting and against the very freedoms our founding father’s fought for.

7. Liberal Marxist Professors? really? I was raised “Better Dead than Red” and served as a U.S. Marine with the same ideals. Though I am more enlightened now as to the narrow minded agenda of those that would restrict our rights in the name of security. I assure you I am in favor of individual rights. Less Government BS and smaller Government.
8.We as Americans have the same rights as everyone else, unless your GLBT, then you still get discriminated against. Not because of anyone’s “lifestyle” choice; as I presume all humans prefer to maintain a human lifestyle. A persons sexual orientation is their own business and not a “lifestyle choice”, it is a portion of who they are, we need to accept it and move on with reality.
9.We all have the right to “Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” To infringe upon that right is to deny everyone the same right. What consenting adults do is their business so long as no one is being hurt. Being offended by someone’s existence is not an infringement on your rights, you just have to learn to deal with people that are different from yourself. That is just life.
10. Wake up call, I don’t hate you, I don’t even know you, with the exception of the thread emanating form your original blog post. for you to claim that I “hate you” is a bit presumptuous don’t you think?

The Jewish people are not responsible for all the problems (if any at all) in the world.
The current situation of our economy isn’t Obama;s fault. He inherited the fall out from Reaganomics. Giving tax breaks to the rich for job creation. the single flaw, no company is going to hire people just because of a tax break there has to be a need that creates the position for someone to be hired to do the work fulfilling that need.
What is Obama’s fault is that all his attempts to counter the financial collapse involve adding more debt with out correcting the problem of reaganomics. I used to admire Reagan, not so much anymore. I don’t care if a person considers themselves to be Liberal or conservative. their personal views don’t count in public office. what counts in public office is the will of the people and our nations elected officials have forgotten or ignored that fact for decades and it is time for that to change.
you are correct in that we need patriots willing to force the federal government to operate within the constraints set up by our constitution and let the states get back to governing their respective states.

So in review, I don’t hate you. I’m not a Marxist. I consider myself to be more of a libertarian. Kurt didn’t tell me to come here and harass you.

I’d also like to know what the “false claims” I made were? Since I am a supporter for the repeal of Cannabis prohibition I keep it separate from my promoting of the Sons of Anarchy TV show out of respect for Kurt’s past challenges with drug abuse/use (I don’t consider Cannabis to be dangerous though).

Perhaps you should blog more, it seems to me that you have a lot of pent up aggression.

I’d Like to Move on to The Next Train Wreck Please…

Remember that video I was going to try to do? Well, I had 3 of them  on my ipod. IT took me a couple of hours to finally stop & read the instructions before I finally got them moved to my pc. at first everything worked great then, I went to show my wife and all the video was corrupted…   I tried to recover the original files from the ipod, I deleted them like an idiot. I knew I should have waited until I the vids were posted and working. That’s the breaks folks. as much as it sucks. I know everyone was looking forward to lots of pics and such.

The true story of my life, one train wreck after another. Now there are some good times in between collisions but the collision is imminent. I have come to accept that. Though I have experienced a series of blessings that have been phenomenal, my luck usually runs towards things not turning out as badly as they could have. In other words a positive outcome is doubtful under the best of conditions. Or perhaps my perspective is skewed.

I’m certainly far from glamorous and I’m more than ok with that. I have managed over the years to turn or perhaps twist should be the appropriate word here, to twist events in my favor rather than letting them twist me. Some times in life you just have to roll the dice and see how they land.

I’m surprised at the number of people telling me that they would not have shared the trip I won to L.A. to meet Sons of Anarchy Creator Kurt Sutter and members of the cast. I always thought of the #SAMCRO fans as looking out for one another, so to speak. But just like in the show, people sometimes have their own agenda and do what they do for their own reasons.

Anyway, no video, it sucks but that’s where we are at. I need to watch last nights show again because there is a clue in there that I think I missed. I ‘m almost sure there is. I’m already jonesing for next weeks episode. and I’m still tired from the weekend. time to rest.

Kurt Sutter Dumps Twitter after flushing Facebook

http://sutterink.blogspot.com/

Talk about pissed! I had read about Kurt's Facebook page getting hacked, but I didn't know he took it down. I had been busy with other things and hadn't been pimping the FB page or @sutterink on twitter as I usually do. I have been gearing up for it though as Season 4 is just around the corner and Kurt had teased the fans & followers with the chance to win Sons of Anarchy merchandise and memorabilia.

So the ever crucial goals Kurt set for the fans to reach, just for the opportunity to be one of the lucky winners, is done I suppose. The pages are gone and that’s that. I am slowly realizing that this could be the reason why I never got into the a show beyond what we see on the TV. I never cared about who was playing whom or any of the writers. I had never heard the term “Show Runner” before getting into pimping @sutterink on twitter and the Facebook page the following season.

I’ve gotten to know the online persona of many people while tweeting about Sons of Anarchy. I was ecstatic when Kurt Sutter took notice of how much effort I put into finding new followers for his twitter feed. I even received a promotional booklet and DVD’s of the first 5 episodes of Season 2. I don’t remember if I ever actually told anyone about it. I didn’t mention it for a while because I didn’t want to upset anyone because I wasn’t even one of the winners. Kurt messaged me and said “email me your address I’m gonna send me some shit.” That was a great day for me.

 

99.9% of the fellow SAMCRO fans that I have tweeted with are great people (in my book) and Kurt Sutter really is a nice guy(Despite his colorful expressions wrapped in profanity and deep fried in vulgarity.

I’m not sure what I’m going to do with the time that I was going to be promoting @sutterink on twitter. I guess, I can still pimp the blog and and the YouTube videos.

Well, gonna call it a night, 2:33 am and the kids go back to school today! I have to be back up in 3 and 1/2 hours. some days everything just sucks

Yeah! First Post

I don't know that I have all that much to say in general, though I am very opinionated at times (probably most fo the time). I am currently working on a couple of things that were started some time ago and set aside for various reasons. I feel now is the time to work toward getting them completed. I have a couple of stories that I began over 10 years ago and a couple more recent ideas that I am putting together.
I have never utilized an outline before. I wasn't able to keep track of all the ideas I had, much less organize them in any way. Not that I was incapable of doing it I simply chose not to do it. I found a program called "FREE MIND," it is a freeware program and has helped a lot with outlining not only scenes but helping me to easily organize characters and ideas scenes. . I am not sure but what I could write the entire manuscript in free mind and then copy & paste it into ms word.
