Friday The 13th Part 2 (1981 Horror Film)

 With Halloween at the end of this year, many of us will be gearing up for Thanksgiving and then eventually Christmas, I wanted to give one last blog post to say Halloween. And It is a look back, in my humble opinion, one of the best Horror movies series ever made, Friday The 13th. More specifically, Friday the 13th Part 2 which is 45 years old.

Fun fact, both of my parents graduated from High School, in 1981.

The story begins five years after the events of the first movie where a new group of camp counselors led by Paul Holt and his assistant Ginny Field have arrived on the shore of Crystal Lake for training.

But soon, one by one, many of the poor souls were killed by a crazy masked man and soon, Paul and Ginny come face to face with the monster himself Jason Voorhees, which who was making his debut.

Although it was successful in making money, many critics didn't really care for the film and honestly, I can understand why. First off, the original film was incredibly popular and set the standard that many of its sequels would have a tough time to follow.

But in my humble opinion, I really enjoyed it because it help create a character in Jason who after seeing his Mother be killed in self-defense, making him the villain in this film as well as the other ones really made Jason into one of the best Horror film characters ever.

I love the whole idea of Jason attempting to "avenge" his mother and using his mother's head as an altar was creepy and effective.

It is crazy to think seeing how far this film franchise has come. It has basically become a tradition for many people to watch during the Halloween season.

Hope and pray that everyone a had safe Halloween.

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

The Wacky Adventures Of Josh And Chad: McVeytown Fire Company 18

 Sometimes the most adventurous days come when you do not expect them and today was certainly one of those days. Chad and I went outside to take care of recycling and Chad had suggested we go check out the brand new Fire House for the McVeytown Fire company.  His boss from Kountry Kitchen, Amanda Boozel, her husband Doug is the Assistant Chief of the McVeytown Fire Company and they invited us to come over and check out the new the building. Of course we decided to go and see it for ourselves. When we arrived, Doug was not there yet, but we were welcomed by Nate Moist and many other members of the fire company and Moist went and gave us a little tour around the building. It was quite beautiful and I am glad to see that they were able to get the building put up. Now, remember when I said that sometimes the adventure can come when you least expect it. Well that came as we had just finished up our little tour, the alarm went off as a fire had broken out.  While Chad and I sto...

Remembering Aunt Jane!

Image
WOW! This blog post has certainly been something special to work on because it was something that I have been wanting to do for my family for some time now and at last, it has been completed. Being in such a large family like mine is, we have gone through a lot together in our lives. Recently we lost my Uncle Rick and Uncle Dave as well as my cousin Brett and my Uncle Rocky before that. Rest In Peace to you all! Miss you greatly! 🙏🙏🙏 So my goal was to help bring back some happy memories for my family! The reason I chose to write this was for one, this year marks 40 years since the tragic death of Aunt Jane. And second, honestly, I never got to know her, so I wanted to help get the family together and learn about her. As you see, she had passed away in 1986 while I was born in 1990. And boy! Did I ever learn a lot about her 😁. The common theme throughout my journey into learning about Aunt Jane was that she was such a kind and gentle soul who cared deeply for her family. Here are so...

The Wacky Adventures Of Josh And Chad: Bingo Night At McVeytown Fire Company!

 This past Saturday, Chadman and I decided to check out Bingo Night over at the McVeytown Fire Company building. Chad's friend and member of the Fire company, Doug Boozel had invited us over and so we went in and see how it was going. And it was going quite well when we had arrived tot he building, it was pretty full of people, at least over a 100 people all looking to hit Bingo. This was their first event hosting since the opening of the new Firehouse so I am sure there were plenty of nerves going into it. Can't say I blame though especially trying to raise funds to help keep the company building going and protect those from dangerous fires. There were some raffle ideas being sold a the event one being a Kitchen Aid, another being a Ninja Air Fryer and lastly, a car trailer. There were some cash prizes as well as lottery tickets, purses and wine. Of course, you can not have a Bingo night without some delicious food. There was some chicken, potatoes, vegetables, rolls, applesau...
