The Joshua Yoder Blog

 Well as everyone knows, Thanksgiving is slowly coming upon us and I thought about writing about one of things I am forever grateful for. And those moments were with my Nan or Grandmother for some of those who won't sure who I was talking about. Reason as to why I am also writing about my Nan is that today's blog post is a tribute to one of the most important person in my life as it is now officially been 15 years since her passing 😭. For years, this was and to some degree still hurts me inside. But as I grow older and maybe wiser lol, I think back and realize how much my Nan would want me to move past it. She knows how much I loved her and how much she meant to me, but it honestly feel like she is telling me to let go of the pain and continue to move forward. Don't get me wrong, I am not going to ever forget her. What I am saying is that I can't let the pain of losing her hold me down among other things. Of course, it is crazy to think that her death has now been 15 y...

 This past weekend was quite a fun ride for me and my twin as we got to witness the return to Lewistown, our older brother Cody who was visiting from New York. Codeman made his way to home safely on Thursday, which I wish I knew that before me and Chad had left our local Wal-Mart because we could have gotten some Nardones Pizza. Maybe next time lol. Again, I was just so thankful that he got here safely, when we returned home, I was happy to finally see him. Gave Codeman a big ole hug! It isn't really too often that I get to hear from him, let alone see him in person, of course being a father of two children now, Love you Lukey, Love you Ava, I can not blame him. By nightfall, we all just got to chill around the living room watching some football. Before we all headed for bed, Codeman suggested about all three of the Yoder brothers spend some time again with each other all day Friday. And hung out we did, Cody had asked us if we wanted to hitch a ride with him in his Bronco and head...

 For those who know me it will be no surprise that I love to talk about B Movies as well as TV movies and last night, I found an old TV film that was released in 1997 called Assault on Devil's Island starring the late Hulk Hogan, Carl Weathers and Shannon Tweed. This movies also featured veteran actors like Martin Kove of Karate Kid fame, Billy Drago (RIP), Trevor Goddard (RIP) and Billy Banks. The story follows Navy Seals portrayed by Hogan and Weathers who after, being betrayed by one of their own. Soon join forces with Tweed who plays as an DEA agent and together, they attempt a rescue mission to free an American Gymnastics All Star team who have been taken hostage to Devil's Island and it is up to them to rescue the hostages. The movie itself had a budget of 4 million dollars which is crazy to think seeing how big movie budgets are nowadays. And also, like mentioned earlier, this film came out in 1997 on TNT. Which is also insane to me because this was during the height of ...

 It is crazy to think that this underrated faction is 30 years old, but nonetheless, the Triple Threat was one of my personal favorite pro wrestling groups of all time. As mentioned earlier, the Triple Threat was formed in 1995 with the original incarnation featuring "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit in Extreme Championship Wrestling. I must saying, although I never saw this version during its original run, getting to see them on the WWE Network and YouTube really was fun to watch. What I like about the trio of Benoit, Malenko and Douglas was how each of them were such great technical wrestlers (which is the kind of wrestling I prefer) and how they could make anyone that they wrestled against look amazing. Sadly, this trio did not last for very long which is unfortunate. I am a bit curious to see how far the original incarnation of the Triple Threat would have worked if it had at least a year under their belts. But one can only ponder. Fast forward ...
