HORROR STORIES IN LIFE

Written by Captain Mary on Sunday, February 04, 2018

Last night I went to the movies to watch "Winchester", a horror flick. I like horror movies for the excitement, much of them don't get me too excited, seems like I am always expecting something different. This story was based on actual events and on a real historical haunted house. Without giving away the story it is a must see! I mean jumping out of your seat and chill bumps kind of movie. A movie made from a real life attraction.
 
 
I guess the surprises of the movie were still in my brain as I entered the grocery store. What I thought was a regular day shopping for food turned out to be something else. Most of the time when I am shopping I am on auto-mode, not really paying attention to what is going on around me. I was casually standing by the cooler doors, just gazing in to see what peeked my interest. Just as I began to reach to open the door, the door next to me began opening on its own. I stepped back and just looked, suddenly an arm outstretched then a leg from the inside of the cooler. That was all I could see, no body, I jumped and shouted "What the F...k!". Then climbing out of the cooler along the side of the shelving a young lady emerges. By then I must have jumped out of my skin. A lady standing nearby started laughing and the girl who slipped out of the cooler was apologizing for scaring the sh...t out of me. If I didn't have a heart-attack on the spot I must be in pretty good shape. The lady who laughed thanked me for making a joy out of her day and the cooler girl just stood smiling. These are the times when a person can't help laughing at themselves.

MEN OF HONOR

Written by Captain Mary on Thursday, October 02, 2008


After having my pay T.V. service suspended I have been going through some of my long lost video's and found one that I hadn't seen in awhile. Men of Honor, a great movie based on a true story. I have a special interest in true stories and history, this particular one is about Navy deep sea divers in the 1950's.



It's about a man who wanted to become a deep sea diver in the face of adversity. He came from a share cropper background, joined the military during a time that prejudice was high. Opportunity for black men was very limited, but he never gave up trying to reach his goals. This story is a great one for anyone who thinks about giving up, this man didn't give up no matter what the odds. He over came obstacles and hurdles that only determination could conquer.



As a diver and captain I appreciate the call of the sea. For every time I take my boat out and I reach the last channel marker leading toward the sea; it's like a veil is lifted from my soul. I look out toward the deep blue water and all my worries and sadness disappear. I find myself smiling uncontrollably and I don't understand it, all I know is that this is the place I am most happy. My next vision could be of dolphins jumping and playing, stingrays flipping into the air, or even whales exhaling. The sense of something incredible and maybe even dangerous, exhilarating my existence.

BROKEN BRIDGES

Written by Captain Mary on Monday, June 30, 2008


I watched Broken Bridges last night and I am not really a fan of country music, but it certainly got my attention and perhaps changed my opinion. The story was about five men who lost their lives in a military exercise and it took place in the small town they lived in. The main characters are well defined, and all have some demon that is haunting them from the past. Its a heart warming story, like the good old days. About community, death, love and living. I don't know how many times I cried during the movie, but if you are looking for a story that touches your heart and soul I highly recommend this movie. I don't want to give the ending away, so check it out and give me your opinion, bet I'm right.

THE BUCKET LIST

Written by Captain Mary on Tuesday, June 17, 2008

Now this is a must see movie The Bucket List. I watched this movie the other night and it was certainly an eye opener. How many people go through life without enjoying the things they wish for. The acting was superb and the story was something everyone can relate to. I am going to make my own bucket list, of course I have pretty much experienced most of my list already. I have done so much in my life time I am not sure what is left to add. I have gotten to the point in the movie, where I realize what is really important in life. I hope that everyone gets a chance to see this movie, without giving away the ending it is a life changing movie. If I was going to rate this movie it would get 4 stars, that's because no body gets 5.
