Where America has both Veteran's Day and Memorial Day, today we Canadians as well as other members of the Commonwealth have Remebrance Day. November 11 is where we give remembrance to those that fought in the first two world wars. Some survived and lived full lives others died and were given memorials both on the battlefield and in their place of birth. To celebrate their sacrifice we donate to the Legion and in return wear the symbol of both peace and the fallen: The Poppy. Inspired by the poem "In Flanders Fields." By Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae.

Over the years though, I've noticed a huge pattern of disrespect among some people. Just over a decade ago, some jerk decided to steal one of the Poppy boxes. Knowing full well where the donation money was going. Now Canada is a free country. If you don't believe in this holiday and believe in a lot of things regarding the negative side of war, I do not blame you for one bit. But to go as far as try to destroy it for those that do believe in it. Families who lost one of their own and want a moment to honour them, Veterans who sacrificed life and limb to give the very freedoms, most people take for granted. Those that treat them like dirt by actions like this, do not get sympathy from me. There are better ways to protest even if I don't agree with it and it makes those who simply want to boycott it, look bad by comparison.

Other than that I wish everyone well and like every other event in history never forget. In fact "Lest We Forget." Is the motto of this day.

Before Cobra Kai, William Zabka made many appearances as Johnny Lawrence. Mostly for gags.

One being the music video, Sweep The Leg, by No More Kings. In which Zabka plays a washed up mash-up of himself and Lawrence. Seen with his fellow Cobra Kai friends, while he laments his past failure. Only for him to try to put himself back in shape, train in a different style and see if he could beat Daniel/Ralph Macchio at his own game. Only for it to all be a dream and him being ran over by Macchio.

Another being a frequent guest star on How I Met Your Mother. The first of which also had Ralph Macchio. As a running gag, Barney Stinson, believes the villains of every movie are the real heroes. The big example being that he's a huge Darth Vader fan. In this case, he believes that Johnny Lawrence was the True Karate Kid of the story, because he was trained at a legal gym. During a surprise party for him, he was dissappointed that they got Ralph Macchio instead of Zabka, only to his surprise, that Zabka was with him the whole time. Disguised as a clown with his Cobra Kai gi underneath the costume. Making Barney's dream come true look even better since, in his mind, now that both are here, they'll have a rematch.

But my personal favourite of these gag appearance, is the one in 2011. It was a random Sketch on The Jimmy Kimmel Live Show. This was at the time when Ralph Macchio, was a contestant on Dancing With The Stars. Now I seen Ralph dance before. Karate Kid Part II's dance scene with Daniel and Kumiko was no stunt double, that was him and Tamlyn Tomita dancing on that floor. So I knew he'd be an ace on that show even if he doesn't win them all. But what I saw shocked the hell out of me. I don't know how Kimmel and Zabka got the right reactions to show Macchio's shock, but they super imposed Zabka as Johnny going after Ralph despite getting a perfect score.

It makes me wonder has Johnny been stalking Daniel everywhere he goes? Let's find out.

Here he is in Outsiders:

And Again in My Cousin Vinny.

And if Ralph thinks he can hide behind comedic legend Artie Lange in Beer League, he should have wondered if Johnny was a baseball fan.

Seems every where Ralph goes, Johnny Lawrence is ready to strike first, strike hard and show no mercy. Which is what we hope he will do in Season 4's Cobra Kai, which will be coming soon.

Light Harmony: What's wrong S.T.?

S.T.: Well, after our second album, I was stumped. I don't want to do another lesson album just yet, because while I was given good ideas from great artists, I want to do something between them. Something that shows us as more than teachers and protectors.

Light: Well when you got us to sing Creeping March of War it did get some good ratings on Newgrounds. Maybe we just make songs on various things outside the lessons and the encouragement. It would make us seem like a real band, rather than just edutainment.

S.T.: That's a great idea Light. What do you think Harmony.

Harmony: Well we could give it a shot. We'll sing to our hearts delight, but in the end it's all up to you. Among other things.

S.T.: What do you mean?

Harmony: Did I say that outloud? Forget I said that.

S.T.: Ok.....

Light: *Whispering* Jesus Christ Harmony, keep it to yourself.

Harmony: *Whispering back* Sorry it slipped out.

S.T.: Are you two ok?

Light Harmony: We're fine, forget it.

S.T.: If there's something you wanna talk about, I'm all ears.

Harmony: It's fine really.

S.T.: Ok then at the topic at hand. Ya, maybe we could make some songs. Could be anything from sad songs, to happy songs, but entertaining songs none the less. I'll let you two know when I'm ready for them. Until then, rest up. We got a lot of work to do.

Light Harmony: Ok S.T. we'll be waiting.

Ten minutes later in Light Harmony's Quarters.

Light: Ok Harmony, what the hell was that? Usually I'm the one making the remarks.

Harmony: I thought I could keep it together, but I may has well have given him an open invitation to me.

Light: This again? Sis, the man is two decades older than us. He's old enough to be our father and we're not even legal yet. Months to go before that.

Harmony: I know, I know. I don't know why I'm acting this way, if you could just see him through my eyes, maybe you'd understand.

Light: We may be in sync with each other, in many ways, but my one regret is that we see things differently. Besides, I don't think he's interested in women anyway.

Harmony: You think he might be--

Light: Surprisingly no or I would have suspected he wanted me. All the guy does is focus on work, taking care of us and the mission at hand. He might be Asexual.

Harmony: Well, I don't have to have sex with him to love him, but it does explain a lot. When it comes to the mission and our music, he's always looked us in the eye. Yet when it comes to topics outside that, even stuff about his own life, he always looks away. As if trying to change the subject.

Light: All the more reason why I suspect him. Still he hasn't steered us wrong before.

Harmony: Still there was something I did notice about him. Even when things seem to go his way, he seems quite sad. Depressed even. Maybe that's what's so suspicious about him.

Light: What do you mean.

Harmony: Remember when we were on the streets? We rescued that Urchin who was being pressured into joining that gang, I think it's name was Dark Divide. They were nothing but thieves and drug dealers back then. Yet it was like they fell off the face of the Earth.

Light: How can I forget? Despite how grateful he seemed that we got him out of there, he looked so sad. Like there was nothing left for him or that he felt it was too late to start anew. I remember the last time we saw him, we had to stop him from trying to kill himsel- No. You don't think.

Harmony: I think S.T. is suicidal. However, unlike most who'd rather do it alone or in the presence of others, he may have a particular way he wishes to die.

Light: Well every time we fought along side each other, he was the first to charge in. We thought it was brave, but now that I think about it, maybe he did it, so that he'd be the first to die. No wonder he looked dissappointed whenever we won. Do you think he intended to take us with him?

Harmony: The thought did cross my mind, don't get me wrong, but considering all the trouble he went through to make us who we are now, I think it may be something else he has planned for us. Maybe he plans to pass full duties onto us.

Light: It could be. Well let's just hope we can help as many people as we can, before he does.

Meanwhile in S.T.'s Quarters.

S.T.: What could Harmony possibly mean, when she said that. Come to think of it, whenever we're not working on our music or battling villains, she seems to react strangely to me. Always blushing at the mere sight of me. Nah. Couldn't be. Moral implications aside, I don't know what she would see in a guy like me. Maybe next time we go to a bar, I could try to hook her up with someone her own age. Someone who would treat her right. Maybe throw Light a bone too. I gotta keep a close eye on him. I can't tell them everything yet, but he's starting to get suspicious. In the mean time, I should just work on my music. Now what kind of song would they sing to....

While Halloween has come and went, that doesn't mean you have to stop listening to and enjoying scary music.

Just recently I put all of my Halloween Themed music on my Bandcamp.

Greats like:

They're Coming!

Aftermath of A Massacre

and my on the date Halloween Song:

Trick Or Treat of Death

But wait, there's more.

In addition to my songs being available my audios dramas are on there too.

If you want a good laugh at some Macabre Humour, look no further than: Swear Jar 2: The Darkside of Comedy

If you don't wish to sleep at night anymore, then check out: Open The Door.

But don't just look for them there, stay a while and look at some of my older works as well. Other than that, enjoy.

Someone once said that if you played Led Zepplin's song "Stairway to Heaven." backwards, that you'd hear satanic messages backwards.

Wanna know what happens when you play Country Music Backwards?

1. You get your wife back.
2. You get your job back.
3. You get your truck back.
4. You get your house back.
5. Your dog comes back from the dead.
6. You get to fish.
7. You don't have to ship out to war.
8. Your girlfriend doesn't cheat on you because you're not going anywhere.
9. You don't get hurt in bar fights.
10. Your liver repairs yourself so you can drink again.

I am a huge fan of Monty Python. A british sketch comedy show that starred many famous british actors and comediens. Many greats such as John Cleese and Eric Idle as well as famed british director Terry Gilliam had their careers blossom from that show.

The show itself was very famous for being one of the first comedies to take risks in humour. Risks such as allowing profanity, skirting the line of nudity, as well as other ways they managed to get past the censors.

One of my favourite moments has often been their dark comedy. Sketches such as "The Dead Parrot." About a customer complaining to the cashier about selling him a dead pet. Listing off the many ways of saying it's dead. From saying it passed on to saying it joined The Choir Invisible.

My fave of those sketches is called "The Funniest Joke in The World." Where a famous joke writer, creates a joke so funny, that all who understand it will die laughing. That is funny on it's own. It goes further by having the British Army try to confiscate it, research it word by word and translate it in German, so that it only kills German speakers. Then use it against the Nazis in World War II. Now part of the joke is meta in that we don't hear the joke in English out loud. Because maybe even the audience isn't safe.

However I often wonder is there such a joke? Would it be worth the risk of death just to see how funny it is? What do you think?

The golden rule of posting things on the net used to be, to do things anonymously. Don't tell people what you look like, where you live and most importantly: don't tell people how old you are. The reason being is that when you eventually get into fights, it would hurt less because neither party would care who was on the other side of the screen. It's just text. You could be arguing with an old man or a little kid for all you know, but because how how childish both sides would get, it wouldn't matter. Anonymity made us all equal in the world. However as the internet became more public, with social media and entertainment sites, that rule was not just broken but disintegrated. It's gone and the only thing keeping some of us from killing each other regardless of age was the age limit for travel depending on which country and the money to go there. Cowardice notwithstanding.

Yet the one thing that never changed, was the fights. People out there knowingly arguing, insulting and downright threatening each other even after knowing the age of each other. Just recently a 21 year old artist who shall remain nameless, belittled a 10 year old kid, on this very site. For making the mistake of posting in the wrong forum category. A common mistake anyone can make. That would have been enough, yet this person in the same post, proceeded to insult said kid, claiming he wasn't skilled at anything. I saw this kid's work, I know potential and hard work when I see it. And while said Artist is no slouch, this kid has the potential to be leagues ahead of this jerk.

That aside, this supposedly mature artist, knew how old the kid was and picked on him anyway. Who really is the child here?

Give @junoeddleman all the support and encouragement he needs. That kid is going places.

In about 2 months it would have been 2 years since the Covid-19 Pandemic had officially started. Many people died, the rest of us, suffered worse fates. From our already waning freedoms stripped with the restrictions, lockdowns and isolation. Much of which, has driven us so crazy that the mere thought of a vaccination offered more fear than comfort. Now, while we managed to slowly bring things to normal, the new solution to this problem is learning to live with this forever existing problem that is the virus is still out there. The term being used called Endemic. Meaning much like it's predecessor SARs, they're telling us that after all the pain and suffering we had to endure, we are mandated to ignore it as though it no longer existed. Is this a victory? I don't fucking think so. Eventually this thing will get licked like every other problem that came before. The world will always keep turning. That is not the issue. The issue is, despite many problems that came before, despite listing them in every database, medical journal and history book, no one will learn from this. I'm not just talking about disease though. Every problem we ever had, war, famine, environmental, you name it. They have been always caused and prolonged by the biggest load of bullshit, from the world's largest manure factory. Someone does something stupid, it backfires spectacularly. Many people focus more on who's fault it is, before solving the problem at hand and when they do try to solve it, the damage is already done. Yet despite every new problem, we act as if it's sonething we never seen before. Babies and kids, have the rightful excuse of being born and little to no knowledge of the world as we know it. What the fuck is the excuse of us adults? We experienced these very problems, under different timelines and different names. Did we learn from them? FUCK NO! Otherwise they'd stop happening. People are already treating this as if it's over already. I'm sorry to say that, you're not just wrong, but you are very stupid. Sooner or later something worse than Covid will come along. It doesn't even have to be a disease, just another foot note of the world's major problems. We'll act shocked, turn against each other and the cycle continues. Alternatively, we could break the cycle and do something new and hope it makes things better, but considering our track record of century long fuck ups, that's not gonna happen anytime soon? Don't believe me? Think I'm taking this harder than it needs to be? Prove me wrong. Break the cycle and actually work to improve this world. I knew how bad this was gonna be before it got bad, I tried warning many and with the exception of a select few, none believed me. Some even to this day are still in denial. These same people will keep acting that way, when the next bad things happen. I have only one thing to say to them: Fuck you. If you're gonna keep ignoring warnings, you have no sympathy from me and at this point you deserve to die from the next thing if Covid hasn't killed you yet. For those that do learn from this even those that hate my guts and vice versa, you have my utmost respect.

Stay safe, have a good day. Stay tuned for more of my works. Most importantly: DO NOT FUCKING FORGET ABOUT THIS!

After watching Squid Game. One thing I liked was that they used Childhood games as their motif. Be it universal games like Tug of War and Red Light Green Light. As well as games more specific to South Korea, like Honeycomb and the titular Squid Game. So I got to thinking why not add some ideas based on other kids games.

In my case, Canadians play universal games like Red Rover and all forms of Tag and Hide and Seek. As well as Canadian specific games like peach basket Basketball and Doughnut Chew.

Let me know what games you think would make good Squid Games. Be it something universal or something specific to your own country.

One thing that often annoys me is the technical terminology for Halloween. For those that don't know, Halloween's long form version is called "All Hallows Eve." I mean on the 30th, you have Mischief and Devils Night. Where you pull pranks or commit serial arson in Detroit respectively. The 31st You have Halloween. A night of Treats and Scares which may or may not increase the supernatural element of the overall world. Yet no one talks about good old November the 1st. Which should technically be called All Hallows Day. Well fuck that. From this point forward, every year I will Celebrate November the 1st until it becomes an official holiday. Hopefully one that let's you all take the day off work/school. I think that if a lot of people get into it, it could happen.
