Hey again! Long time no write! A while ago, Poppy shared the photos that he took at Manzanita and I FINALLY remembered to write about them. My grandpa is an amazing photographer and after you see these photos, you will agree. I asked him about his time in Africa, where he traveled part of every year from 1965 to 1976.

When I told him I was writing about him he was flattered and is now concerned that the paparazzi are going to show up at his door.

This is exactly what he said when I told him about this post: “Can’t imagine what you are going to say about me… hmmm… don’t mention the Good Looks or Athletic Body… otherwise all sorts of women will stalk me…mistaking me for George Clooney.”

Now that I write this, I might need to warn him about the fact that I mentioned the Good Looks and Athletic Body….

I’m Back! Now that I warned him I can show you his amazing pictures that he took in Africa and the ones from Manzanita. I have a bunch of photos so I will go to my trusty assistant, The Random Number Generator! Get ready….

67! I don’t have that many photos. Let’s try again….

-7! I should really check the settings on this thing….

9! Great! Here are 9 photos that he took!

And my personal favorite….

Are you ready to feast your eyes on 3 of the best pictures ever taken in Manzanita? Here we go!

Aren’t they gorgeous!?

He also has been sending some amazing videos!!! I think they are a riot and I watch them over and over again! Be warned. The following may occur: dying of amazement and hiccups.

Now for the one of the funniest movies ever!! A GREAT movie called Spy. Melissa McCarthy stars in this funny, action, slightly inappropriate (I hope you don’t mind the F-word) family movie. For all of the geniuses who are now furiously tapping away on their devices, let me make life just a little bit easier. Get ready for the trailer:

I hope you like it!

In other news, 206 years and 1 day ago (in 1814), Francis Scott Key wrote “The Star Spangled Banner”! Did you know that the “Star Spangled Banner” was originally titled “The Defence of Fort M’Henry”? Can you imagine someone announcing: And now, *Insert Famous SInger Here* with the “The Defence of Fort M’Henry“!

Also I want to do this thing called Actor Of The Week where I name an actor that was in a show, movie, or even musical. It is my way of recognizing great films and obsessing over one of the actors that was in it. So for the first ever Actor Of The Week… Drumroll Please!!!!!

Kristen Bell! She starred in Deadwood as Flora Anderson, Elle Bishop in Heroes, Gossip Girl in Gossip Girl, Anna in Frozen, and my personal favorite role and one of my favorite TV shows, Veronica Mars in Veronica Mars!

She even voices the sloth Priscilla Tripletoe in Zootopia!

Can’t you see the resemblance!? Just Kidding! But Kristen Bell is known to have a love of sloths!

I hope you like Actor Of The Week!

Drop the Mike!
