Vincent Price

 Crazy to think that this incredible actor is no longer with us and it has nearly been 35 years since the passing of Vincent Price back in 1993.

Now in fairness, I only remember seeing Mr. Price perform in a few things like the 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, Edwards Scissorhands and also he was the narrator in the music video for Michael Jackson's song Thriller. Also I didn't even realize that he was in the Ten Commandments movie too.

But as I started researching him, I discovered that he had such a big time career in movies. Now it is no secret that I do enjoy a good gothic horror story and Price certainly fits that bill. Having been in plenty of movies and television shows, primary in the role of a Villain, and great one at that.

Of course Vincent Price was waaayyy a head of my time. So I am very limited in what I was able to find. And what I did find, was amazing.

Researching his career, I saw that he was featured in films based on one of my favorite writers as well as many other people ins Edgar Allan Poe. Stories like The Masque Of The Red Death, House of Usher, The Haunted Palace, The Pit and The Pendulum. Heck! He was even in the 1966 Batman series a Egghead.

Now those are just a few movies that he did. In fact, Vincent Price had been in over 100 films. To be perfectly honest, I really wish I could find more than clips of his performances on the internet. Price's ability to play a villain is incredible. So dark and scary and more importantly believable.

You don't really villains like the ones he played anymore in movies that is for sure. Kind of makes me a little jealous of the people who came before me who got to witness such a talented actor.

As mentioned earlier, one of the shows I remember seeing of Price, was when my parents introduced me to Scooby Doo. And one of those series was the 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo. I loved his performance as Vincent Van Ghoul.

Maybe I should try and find some full movies of Vincent Price and review them some day. God Bless Mr. Price, I pray that you are resting peacefully.

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe!🙏🙏🙏

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob...

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting...

Nick is a local mechanic who has been serving this community for many, many years and has always been a generous, hard worker and honorable person at the Dickson's Garage along with his father Ken. He and his father are also local racing legends around here in Mifflin County having raced for a couple generations now. Nick and his family have always been honest with me and my family and has helped take care of our vehicles for many years. They are amazing,  hardworking people who now need our help. And according to the go fund me page that was set up by Andrea Baker and Valeri Thornburgh. The doctors had told his family that it will take months at minimum for him to be able to recover and will not be able to work for the foreseeable future. Please support anyway you can for the Dickson family in their time of need. ...
