Autumn & Jerry

Can you imagine a society that is free of labels, particularly the staunchly divided political party labels? I try to, and in my imagination, it would be something beautiful. Potentially beautiful. The members of this society would have to use their brains, and judge information based on facts and content rather than who said it, [...]

reading: Howard’s End by E.M. Forster, textbooks of the Sociology, World Lit, & Biology variety, Coastal Living magazine, J’s blog, and this blog for some great running inspiration.
watching: The Marriage Ref, American Idol (yeah, yeah…I resisted for years but got hooked!), music videos (my constant love), The Office, Tosh.0, and a stream of Netflix.

I am currently obsessed with Solid Gold…and maybe a little in love. <3
I first found them on one of my fav MTV projects ever, You Rock the Deuce, and then last night on Subterranean, where I learned how to find & download this song – finally! iTunes, you disappoint. You should have all of their [...]

According to the local news, within 10 minutes of each other not 1 but 2 earthquakes struck Central Georgia yesterday afternoon. I didn’t even know earthquakes were possible in this region! Apparently, both have been confirmed by the United States Geological Survey and magnitudes registered a 3.1 & 2.2, respectively. Some people reported cracks to [...]

Thanks to a current Flickr Blog spotlight, last night I noticed some cool photo features that were obviously from Las Vegas. After a closer look, I discovered that they were all taken in a place called the Neon Boneyard which is a collection of historic signs that have been saved from destruction. So cool – [...]

The Crazies, a horror flick from the 70s, is being remade and filmed right here in my own town!
Over the past week, I noticed a local car wash was barricaded off for a few days – apparently if was for filming purposes. Cool! The majority of the scenes have been filmed in Perry, and the [...]
