BEAUTY & THE BEAST ROLLED INTO ONE NASTY LITTLE PACKAGE. GUESS WHERE I AM RIGHT NOW, OR WHERE THE GUTS OF MY COMPUTER IS? FRISCO, TEXAS! WOW. WHILE I AM SITTING HERE, AT BURGER KING, IN MISSOULA, WRITING AWAY, THE ONE WHO DOUBLES, COLLECTS MY MONEY AND DISTRIBUTES IT, IS IN TEXAS. ARE YOU NOTIING THIS KIDS! THIS SHOULD MAKE IT EASY FOR YOU, TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN, WHERE I AM, JOANN S. SECRIST, J.D., STARTING OUT, THIS MORNING, AT THE POV., LEAVING UNDER SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS, AT 5:30 AM, APROXIMATELY, RIDING ON BUS #11, ON SURVEILLANCE, THE 5:35 AM RUN, GETTING IN AND NOTICING THE TIME, AT BURGER KING, AT ABOUT 6:25 OR SO, STAYING TO WRITE A BLOG, EAT BREAKFAST, STILL HAD A COUPON, SO I STAYED TO LUNCH, WATCIHNG A READING THE NEWS, THEN WATCHING A MOVIE, CALLED, HEART OF FEAR, ABOUT A SERIAL KILLER, THE NIGHT SLASHER, THE BATTLE BETWEEN THE DETECTIVE, AND THE FBI PROFILER, ON A CASE, INVOLVING A MURDERED, MOTHER, AND HER 9 YEAR OLD SON, WHO CAME HOME EARLY FROM BASEBALL CAMP, TO FIND HIS MIOTHER BOUND, AND THE KLLER STABBING HER, SHE TOLD HIM TO RUN, BUT DIES. THE KILLLER POSES AS A HOT SHOT NEWSPAPER REPORTER, WHO WANTS IN ON THE CASE, AS THEY ALL TRY TO GET INVOLVED AND CALL COPS, TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON IN THEIR CASE, HOOKING UP WITH THE FBI AGENT, WHO IS FIGHTING TO GET THE KID TO OPEN UP, BEFORE, THE DETECTIVE USES THE SON AS LIVE BATE TO CATCH THE KILLER . . . THE AGENT ADOPTS THE CHILD, AS THE REPORTER, USES THE DETECTIVE, GETS HIM TO DRINK TO FIND OUT WHERE THE FBI AGENT HAS TAKEN THE KID, ONLY TO HAVE A COP, TRACK THE KID, LEAVING YOU TO BELIEVE THE COP IS THE KILLER, AND THE BOYFIREND IS GOING TO TIME IT RIGHT TO SAVE THE AGENT AND HER NEW SON--WHEN IN REALITY, HE IS THE KILLER, HAS BEEN THE ONE TO WRITE THE NOTES, TO THE NEWSPAPER AND THE COPS, EVEN MARKING THE TYPE OF PERFUME THE AGENT IS WEARING, AND IT IS THE COP, WHO THE KID RUNS TO, WHEN THE PROFILER, IS TELLING THE BOY TO RUN TO THE NEWSPAPER REPORT AND BOYFRIEND, SHE BROKE UP WITH, TO ADOPT! THE COP, HAD NEVER SEEN THE BOY, BUT, HE RECIEVED THE HEART OF THE MOTHER, AS AN ORGAN RECIPIENT, TAPPING INTO THE MURDERED MOTHER'S FEARS FOR HER SON, WHO WITNESSED THE MURDERS! THE BOY FELT THE COP WAS SAFE, AND HE WAS, BUT THAT IS NOT HOW IT APPEARED. THE SEAONSED DETECTIVE, CALLED IT HIS 10TH SENSE, SOLVING MURDERS FOR 12 YEARS, AS THE YOUNG PROFILER, WAS LEAD ON HER FIRST CASE, HAVING BEEN SECOND, ON TWO PREVIOUS MURDER CASES, HAVING A HARVARD PH.D IN PSYCHOLOGY, SHE WAS BLINDED BY THE HANDSOME REPORTER, ON THE CASE, WHO WAS ACTUALLY THE KILLER. INTERESTING DYNAMICS BETWEEN THE FBI AGENT AND THE CHILD, SHE HAD LIVED THROUGH AN AUTO ACCIDENT, WHEN BOTH OF HER PARENTS WERE KILLED AND SHE COULD RELATE TO THE BOY, FEELING IT WAS HIS FAULT THAT HIS MOTHER DIED, WHEN, IN REALITY, NOTHING THE TWO DID, COULD HAVE SAVED, ANY OF THE PARENTS, SHIT JUST HAPPENS. LIFE IS COMPLICATED, AS ARE SERIAL KILLERS, AND EXPERIENCE MATTERS, AND WAS THE ORDER OF THE DAY, NOTHING SUBSTITUTES FOR THE LEARNING PROCESS THAT GOES ON, WHEN, SOLVING CASE AFTER CASE, ADDING LAYER ON LAYER OF KNOWLEDGE THAT CAN BE PLUGGED INTO OTHER CASES. JUST A FEW NEWS BLIPS, ON LOCAL STUFF . . . : (1) DIG DAYS, 1000 GARDENS, IN GARDEN CITY, A 30 MEMBER GROUP OF U OF M STUDENTS, PLANTED 20 GARDENS OVER THE WEEKEND, SEWING SEEDS OF CARROTS, POLE BEANS, BEETS, TURNIPS, PARSNIP, ETC., HELPING PEOPLE, EAT FRESH, LOCALLY GROWN PRODUCE--COOL! GARDENING IS THE WORLD'S #1 HOBBY, SO VERY TRENDING RIGHT NOW AS SPRING IS UPON US! (2) BUTTE, MONTANA, RETURNING TO THE ROARIING 20'S? NO, BUT LOCAL 3-D PRINTER, IS USING THAT PROCESS TO BRING BACK, REPLICA LIGHTS, FAUX BRONZE ART DECO, FROM ERAS, GONE BY, WHEN, THOMAS EDISON, USED, BUTTE, SEOOND, ONLY TO NEW YORK TO USE HIS ELECTRIC LIGHTS, TO LIGHT A CITY! BUTTE WAS BIGGER THEN, SAN FRANCISCO, BACK IN THE DAY! NICE. (3) THE MONTANA CONSTITUTION, SAYS THAT, THE STATE IS TO PROMOTE, NATIVE INDIANS, HISTORIC CULTURE AND TRADITIONS, WHICH IN A STATE THAT ROCKS TOURISM, WITH NOT JUST THE CROWN JEWEL OF NATIONAL PARKS, GLACIER NATINOAL PARK, BUT THE MOST VISITED, I THINK, IS YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, BUT, VISITORS TO THE STATE ARE MISSING OUT, IF THEY DON'T GET TO SEE THE NATIVE CULTURE AND LEARN ABOUT THE INDIAN WAYS--I HEARD A DUDE, TALKING THIS MORNING ABOUT GOING TO A POW WOW, AND I WAS JEALOUS, EVERY JULY 4TH, IN ARLEE, THERE IS A POW WOW, CELEBRATION, AND IT IS THE MOST COLORFUL, TRADITIONAL, INDIAN, FUN, LOVE THE MUSIC, THE DANCING, THE BRAVES, THE MAIDENS AND PRINCESSES, AND YOU ARE MISSING OUT, IF YOU DON'T GO TO EITHER THE ARLEE POW WOW, OR THE MISSOULA, IF I REMEMBER FROM LAST YEAR, BIG ONE, AT THE FAIR GROUNDS, COME ONE, COME ALL, TO BE ENRICHED BY THE CULTURES, 7 DIFFERENT TRIBES OR RESERVATIONS IN MONTANA, THAT PRECEDED, US, ALL AS IMMIGRANTS, THE NATIVES! THE ARTICLE, MENTIONED, LITTLE BIGHORN BATTLEFIELD, WHERE THE CLASHES BETWEEN, THE U.S. ARMY 7TH CALVARY, BATTLE AGAINST THE SIOUX AND CHEYENNE. COOL STUFF. IF YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO GLACIER, STOP OFF IN MAIN STREET NATIVE AMERICA, TO HELP BRING, FORTH THE ECONOMIC VITALITY, AND VIBRANCY, THAT IS OFTEN SKIPPED OVER, AND STOP IN BROWNING, MAIN STREET CROW AGENCY, ROCKY BOY, SO THE REZ WILL START TO FLOURISH! DIG. I HAVE LOVED YOU A THOUSAND YEARS, AND I WILL LOVE YOU A THOUSAND MORE! I HAVE THE HEART OF A MOCCASIN, LOVE NATURE & THE NATIVES! (4) PRESIDENT OBAMA, MET WITH YOUTH LEADERSHIP, FROM COLLEGES, AND PROMIED TO WORK WITH THIS BRIGHT YOUNG GENERATION, TELLING HIM OF HIS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZING, EFFORTS THAT LED TO A POLITICAL CAREER, AND WHAT A CAREER! HE CHALLENGED THE INVITATION, ONLY CROWD, SAYIING THAT THEY WOULD BE THE ONES TO SOLVE SOME OF THE WORLD'S MOST DAUNTING PROBLEMS! WE BELIEVE IN YOU! KISS. (5) TWO VISIONS OF FRANCH, CLASH ON THE POLITICAL SCENE, AND COULD NOT BE SO DIFFERENT IN THEIR APPROACH, AND MISSION: (1) INVESTMENT BANKER, MACRON, BARELY EDGING OUT, LE PEN, IS OPTIMISTIC IN HIS VISION, OF TOLERANCE, IN FRANCE AND A UNITED EUROPE OF 28 COUNTRIES, WITH OPEN BORDERS, AGAINST LE PEN'S MUCH DARKER VISION, LOOKING INWARD, TO "FRANCE-FIRST" . . . WHERE HAVE YOU HEARD THAT BEFORE? WITH A PLATFORM THAT COULD CLOSE BORDERS, BE TOUGHER ON SECURITY, LESS IMMIGRANTION AND DROPPING THE SHARED EURO CURRENCY TO RETURN TO THE FRENCH FRAC. ANOTHER CONDENDER FOR THE PRESIDENCY THAT DIDN'T WIN, SAID, "EXTREMISM CAN ONLY BRING UNHAPPINESS AND DIVISION TO FRANCE. TELL US AMERICANS ABOUT THAT! FUCK? (6) FORMER, NEW YORK MAYOR BLOOMBERG, IS FAST BECOMING AN ADVOCATE, FOR "CLIMATE HOPE: WHO CITIES, BUSINESS, AND CITIZENS CAN SAVE THE PLANET." THAT IS ACTUALLY THE TITLE OF HIS NEW BOOK. BLOOMBERG, WENT ON TO SAY, "I DON'T HAVE MUCH SYMPATHY FOR INDUSTRIES WHOSE PRODUCTS LEAVE A TRAIL OF DISEASE & BODIES." NOW THAT IS PUTTING IT BLUNTLY. i READ THE POOR RATING ON AIR QUALITY IN MISSOULA, AND WE SUCK . . . WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT COAL CARS, AS LONG AS THEY ARE RUNING THE TRACKS IN MISSOULA, ARE COVERED, SO THAT COAL DUST AND POLLUTION, DON'T, MAKE US SICK AND KILL OUR HEALTH! WE WANT TO LIVE ON THE CORNER OF HEALTHY AND HAPPY, LIKE WALGREENS, STATES! (7) THAT SHOULD ABOUT DO IT FOR RIGHT NOW!
