“Catcher in the Rye” author J.D. Salinger has died at age 91 in New Hampshire.
The author’s son, in a statement from the author’s literary representative, says Salinger died of natural causes at his home. He had lived for decades in self-imposed isolation in the small, remote house in Cornish, N.H.
“The Catcher in the Rye” with its immortal teenage protagonist—the twisted, rebellious Holden Caulfield—came out in 1951 during the time of anxious, Cold War conformity.
“The Catcher in the Rye” gets a lot of bad publicity because of it being the most censored book in high schools and libraries in the United States and also it’s association to Mark David Chapman’s shooting of John Lennon , John Hinckley, Jr.’s assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan, Robert John Bardo’s shooting of Rebecca Schaeffer and other murders, but it still remains to be one of my favorite novels of all time. I’ve read the novel several times and I actually keep a copy on my nightstand that has pages dog-eared so that I can just read quick bits of my favorite parts. Looks like it’s time to dust it off and give it another read.
R.I.P. JD Salinger
Yep, you read the title correctly. Get a load of this weirdo…

Wolfie Blackheart is not an ordinary 18-year-old.
She believes she is a wolf — technically, a werewolf — and so she wears a tail. She also wears a harness in case someone special wants to drag her around.
And last week, she used a pocketknife in her kitchen to decapitate a dog — already dead, according to Wolfie — that had been missing since Jan. 5.
“I severed the head, boiled the head,” Wolfie said. “People make the mistake of hacking the spine, which will fracture the skull.”
She added, “You also have to put (the head) outside for the brains to leak out.”
Before the teenager carted the cranium to the woods, someone held it up and snapped a photograph of it inside her Northwest Side house — a shot that ended up on the Internet.
Within days, the photo had spurred an aggressive animal cruelty investigation by Animal Care Services and the San Antonio Police Department.
It also inspired at least one so-called troll — a savvy, anonymous Internet user — to hack into Wolfie’s personal accounts, engage in amateur sleuthing and issue threats to those deemed responsible for the dog’s fate.
Bearing the brunt of these attacks, Wolfie — born Sarah Rodriguez — says she’s guilty of nothing more than an abiding love for taxidermy.
“I would never kill a canine,” she said. “I am a canine.”
Lisa Rodriguez, Wolfie’s mom, said she supports her daughter’s career goal.
“I say, ‘Don’t sever heads in front of me,’” she said. “She usually does it in the woods.”
Wolfie cares lovingly for two huskies in the backyard.
Her room is a cluttered den plastered with posters of anime characters and howling wolves. On a high shelf, she collects heads, including the cleaned skulls of a coyote, ram and wild boar.
When a car ran over Pixie — her “best friend” — Wolfie cut off the chihuahua’s tiny head, cleaned it and placed it in a jar.
“I get requests on cats and stuff,” she said.
Wolfie also has collected more than a dozen swords, including a “two-handled war sword” made of carbon steel and a katana blade from Japan.
She said investigators knocked on her door Friday with a search warrant.
“When they saw her room, they had to call every single cop to her room,” said her mother, who lives in the home. “The spots on the wall, they thought it was blood. It’s catsup. The kids had a fight. They’re teenagers.”
She added, “Wolfie does have a bloody refrigerator, but they’re all dead animals.”
Authorities also noted the criminal history of Wolfie, whose name appeared on the site.
A dropout since ninth grade, Wolfie walked onto a campus in the Northside ISD a year or two ago with a “large curved blade” that “looks like it’s used to cut someone’s head off,” according to the affidavit.
She was arrested and charged with possession of the weapon.
“I can explain that,” Wolfie’s mother said. “That was a skinning knife.”
‘Road kill’
Wolfie has Tourette’s syndrome, which causes her to yip — a result of head trauma suffered in a car crash about a decade ago, her mother said.
And she’s into a lifestyle that involves bondage, which necessitates a dog collar.
“The collar means I belong to someone,” she said. “It’s not a fashion statement.”
She’s also a member of a “wolf pack.”
“I’m a wolf, and I have a group of other friends who are canines,” she said.
What’s the over-under on Wolfie Blackheart being put in a cage, or kennel, sometime in the not so distant future?
The University of South Carolina led by their super star Devan Downey handed the Kentucky Wildcats the number one ranked team in the nation their first loss of the season at the Colonial center last night. If you went to bed early for shame because it was a great night to watch Carolina basketball.
No one gave Carolina a chance not even President Barack Obama who when speaking to the Wildcats earlier that day and congratulating them for their relief work for Haiti told the Coach “they should be alright tonight”. The president is not the only person who doubted Carolina and rightfully so. Carolina had one of the worst records in the SEC East in fact if it wasn’t for the University of Georgia they would be dead last.
If you’ve watched any games this year though you know Devan Downey is a special player and on any night he can lead this team to special wins. Last night South Carolina shocked the world as they handed the Wildcats their first loss of the season.
As someone who graduated from Carolina in 2000 this brought back special memories of 1997 when the team had one of the best back courts in the nation led by Melvin Watson, BJ McKie, and Larry Davis beat Kentucky that year as well. I’ll always remember that as one of the best sporting event memories of my life. Those who were there rushed the floor in a frenzy while those who went crazy in dorms. I hope those students are all late for class this morning as so many were 13 years ago.
George A. Romero’s newest Zombie masterpiece (we hope) has a release date. According to the Fangoria Blog, Survival is currently slated to debut it as a video-on-demand title April 30 and then in theaters May 28.

No matter how you cut it, I’m pretty excited about this one, and now its just a few months away. I’m going to update the countdown timer to reflect the impending date. My birthday is April 2nd….. I may just have to VOC it that night.
Here is a little viral clip I found on Youtube promoting the movie. This is a little “funny.” I don’t expect the movie to be like this. My guess is that they just created something to be a little quirky to see if it would travel the web….
Anyway, here it is:
“Son if you don’t get good grades I’m gonna make you kill your hamster with a hammer”
That or some semblance of that statement is what Lynn Middlebrooks of Meriwether County Georgia told her 12 year old son recently. For more details check out he AJC’s write up on it, but I’m sure this one is gonna get some national attention.
When Junior came home with bad grades she told her son to take the hammer, go out back, and smash his little hamster brains in.
Yeah. So um why are kids growing up and shooting people in schools now adays???
Honestly, when the zombie invasion happens I hope she is one of the first victims.
I came across this a while back, but was recently reminded about it as part of the push for the DVD of Zombieland (coming out Feb 2).
You can visit this site to zombify yourself (created to promote Zombieland the movie). All you have to do is upload a picture of yourself, and then go to town with the different zombify tools. The results actually turn out pretty good. I originally took a picture of my son and zombified him…..However, after showing my wife she flipped out and “nicely” asked me to delete it because it was too scary.
So instead I quickly zombified Mickey Mouse. Without further ado….Enjoy !
The UK cover art for the George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead, has made its online debut with a scheduled release date of March 15, 2010 from Optimum Home Entertainment. The DVD will only be available direct-to-video in the UK on this date.
Magnet will release Survival of the Dead here in the States as part of its Ultra VOD program this spring, debuting it on VOD platforms nationwide a month before its theatrical release.
This basically means that we’ll be able to see the movie via Comcast video on demand here in Atlanta if we decide not to see it in the theater. I’m going to try wait for the theater…..I just wonder if I can…..
