Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Was Texas Chainsaw Massacre really based on a true story?
NO! IT WASN'T!
The movie was released in 1974. It was, at that time, the most popular horror movie of all time. It is also one of the biggest urban legends of of all time as well.
The Producers of the movie decided to release it as a "true story" . However, there never was a guy named, Leather Face.
However, it was inspired by a real psycho killer named: Eddie Gein.
Eddie Gein was from Wisconsin, not Texas.
He was a very nice and easy going person, according to his neighbors. They never suspected that he was a psycho killer.
Over several years, he killed several people. But, he never used a chainsaw. He usually used a gun.
Not only did he kill people, but, he was suspected of being a cannibal, Grace robber and a Necrophiliac (someone who has sex with dead people).
Gein was suspected of committing several murders, including his own Brother!
After several years, several murders and several missing persons cases, neighbors were suspicious of Gein. They heard strange noises, seen strange things and strange smells were coming from the Gein farmhouse. Rumors were going around town about him and people even called the police and reported him.
Over the years, the police tried but couldn't get enough evidence to get an arrest warrant or a search warrant.
But, eventually, a police officer's mother came up missing. Then there were a few other murders around town. The police finally got enough evidence to secure a search warrant.
They searched the main area of the house and didn't find anything. But, they could smell a strong odor.
They went to the back room in the house and the offices were horrified by what they saw.
They found a large, bloody meat hook hanging from the cealing, a bunch of dead animals laying around on the ground, human body parts, a mask made from human skin, knives and and other horrifying things. The one thing they didn't find was a chainsaw used as a murder weapon.
Remember the police officer I mentioned above whose mom came up missing? They found her dead body in the house!
When the police arrested him, they took him to the police station and locked him in a room with that police officer for about Five minutes. All other officers turned their backs and pretended they didn't hear anything. That officer beat the hell out of him! When they went to court, they just made up an excuse to tell the Judge. Someone else attacked him before we ever arrested him, he fell down the stairs or something. The Judge acted like he believed the story.
In the end, Gein was was committed to a mental health institute for the rest of his life. He died of Lung Cancer in 1984 at the age of 77.
After Fein was arrested, his house mysteriously caught on fire. It was suspected arson. But, when the fire Department was called, they were in no hurry to get there. They just let the house burn.
Gein was abused by his Dad. But his Dad died before Gein started killing people.
The creator of the movie was in Sears, Christmas shopping one day and he was looking at chainsaws. He noticed that all the checkout lines were full and the lines were really long.
He thought, "I'd like to take this chainsaw and cut everybody up so I can just get to the front of the line and get out of here!"
Then he thought, "Wait a minute! I am going to make a movie about a guy who cuts people up with a chainsaw!"
When a movie is: "Based on a true story, they take a true story and actually use the real facts to write a story around everything that actually happened.
However, if it was: Inspired by a true story, that means they got the idea of what to write about from true events. Nothing in the movie has to be true at all.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre was INSPIRED by the true story of Eddie Gein, not based on the true story.
Other movies that were INSPIRED by Eddie Gein include: Psycho and Silence of the Lamb.

For anyone asking: Why does the US need to have a SPACE FORCE?

FOR ANYONE WHO IS WONDERING WHY WE NEED A SPACE FORCE:

    I'm pretty sure there was a time when people said: "Why do we need a Navy? Why do we need an Air Force? What good are those going to do? That's a waste of money!
Why are they spending Billions of dollars creating Navy SEALs, Army Special Forces, Army Rangers, Delta Force and similar things? That's a waste of money! They are wasting my tax dollars on this!
Why are they spending so much money on building nuclear weapons? That could destroy the whole world in just a few minutes!
The enemy can and does attack the US and other countries from the air and water. That's why we need Air Force and Navy.
There's things going on in the world everyday that you and I will never know about. We have enemies all over the world. People are constantly thinking of things they can do to attack another country. Delta Force is a top secret military organization that, up until Clinton was in office, we weren't even supposed to know about. The government denied its existence completely. Bill Clinton hinted that there might be an organization like that, but that's all I'm going to say.
They are constantly protecting the world from terrorists.
Navy Seals and Special Forces take most of the missions that are way too difficult, dangerous and top secret for any other military units to take on.
SEALS killed Bin Laden, for instance.
The reason we have nukes is to PREVENT nuclear wars from ever happening in the first place. How? N. Korea, Russia, Iran and all other countries that don't like the US, they all know that the US invented both Atomic and Nuclear weapons. They also know that the US has more of them than most other countries. I'm sure there's probably a country somewhere in the world that probably has more than we do, but, the US has more than 99.999% of other countries in the world. They know better than to launch a nuke at the US or our allies. Because, the US can and will track their missiles coming in from tracking devices in space and on the ground. If they launch ONE single nuke at us, the President will first, launch about 20, multiwarhead missiles on their country and turn them into a pile of rubble!
Technology is changing really fast all over the world and we need a new way to fight crime, terror, illegal immigration, drugs, nuclear war, the list goes on and on.
Just like Science Fiction movies from the 1980's and even ling before that predicted, we would be in space by the year 2000. Well, we're late getting into space! 18 years late, but, it was inevitably going to happen.
Not only should we have a military presence in space, but also, a lot more Scientists should be up there studying the Earth and it's atmosphere.
As soon as the US gets a military presence in space, other countries will do the same. Our enemies will be up there to.
From outer space, you can see an entire continent, so, instead of an airplane flying over the ground between 300 feet to 5 miles off the ground, they have satellites and troops 20,000 miles or more above the ground. They will be able to look down and see everything. The enemy won't be able to hide very easily on the ground anymore.
The US and rest of the world will be forced to invent new technologies to keep up with the Space Force. When a Scientist tries to invent something specific, they will have to work on it for a long time. In the process, they will accidentally discover and invent other things. That is how we got the Lazer and the Microwave along with Millions of other things.
There is a lot of "Space Junk" flying around in space. It's all over up there. A lot is in orbit around Earth. That could crash in on us and cause a lot of problems. Space Force can protect us from that and try to find a way to clean it up.
They will watch for Metiors and yes, even UFOs!
Space Force will be above the atmosphere of Earth, so, they will have a better, much clearer view of outer space. That will help us study Astronomy, Physics, Chemistry and other things.
They can even send FBI agents up to watch down on the ground, not just in the US, but, in other countries to, and they can track criminals before they run too far away. Then, hopefully, it won't take 10 years to find them, like it did to get Bin Laden!
There's probably a Million other good reasons to have a Space Force.

This is why Teachers should be allowed to carry guns to school.

I've seen soldiers,police officers, security guards, corrections officers, firearms instructors, regular citizens who carry concealed weapons, people out hinting, people working in pawn shops and gun shops and other people who have guns, in fact, literally, more thanhalf the people in the US who are over 21 have a concealed weapons permit and own at least one gun.
You look around and see people walking down the street, half of them in the US are probably carrying a gun and know how and when to use it. They are also responsible enough and have enough self control to never use it unless someones life was in danger.
Some of those people have mental illness or anger issues. Some are taking medications prescribed by a Doctor or illegal drugs.
The population of China: 1.3 Billion. India: 1.2 Billion. USA: About 330 Million. Out of those countries, the USA has the most guns and gun owners.
My point is: I've seen so many people who carry guns lose their temper while they had a gun with them (including me), but, not once have I ever seen someone pull their gun out or even threaten to do so because they were pissed off! Yes, it could happen,  not very likely, but it's possible. Yes, it would be tragic if a Teacher lost their temper and shot a student, but, it would be worse if someone else walked into a school and shot a bunch of innocent people again. You know, if we don't do something drastic NOW to fix the problem, there is more than a 99.9999% chance that it will happen again! That is a guarantee! It is going to happen again if teachers don't start carrying guns in the US.  Teachers carry guns in some other countries and they almost never have any mass school shootings.
It will take the police at least  about 10 minutes to get even one or two officers to the school to respond to an incident like this. More than likely, they would send the SWAT team, not just regular officers, that takes even longer! But, Teachers with guns and the proper training are already there. They would call the police, but, the Teachers don't have to wait 10 minutes or, more than likely, longer, for the police to show up, because they can respond instantly! In those 10 minutes- minimum- that you have to wait for police, that psycho, gunman or woman, could potentially shoot and kill over 100 students and employees at the school! One of them might be your kid or you if you work in the school!
Why is everybody so scared of the 1% chance that an armed Teacher might shoot a student, but, they're not worried that somebody working elsewhere could go to work and kill grown adults (and kids) where they work, shoot people while walking down the street, at the post office, get on the roof of their house and shoot random cars that drive by, have a shoot out with a rival gang or get caught in the cross fire. All of the above have happened and will happen again! But, nobody ever says anything about any of that! Your kids or you are 1 Million times more likely to be shot in one of those situations than by an armed Teacher with a gun who is trying to protect your child's life.
99% of people who carry guns in the United States and other countries know right from wrong. We all realize that if you shoot somebody, you will go to jail. In some cases, you could get the death penalty. Nobody wants that, so nobody shoots anybody else, unless they are psychotic or if it is self defense.
Even if you shoot somebody in self defense and that person was breaking into your house at the time or if it was clearly an accident, more than likely, in most situations, YOU WILL BE ARRESTED! They can hold you in jail for a few days, with no warrant or anything else. It's legal and you should expect cor the police to arrest you after you shoot somebody in self defense. They can hold you in jail, in FL, for up to 3 days, while they do their investigation. After that, they have to either release you or take you to see the judge. Then the Judge will decide what to do with you next.
Why are people so worried about Teachers carrying guns to school to protect their kids, but, they're not worried about anybody else carrying guns? They're afraid of situations that are possible, but not going to happen!  There is a much greater chance of a psycho breaking into the school harming your kid, someone shooting you at work, wherever you work or you getting injured or killed almost any other time or place than a kid getting shot during school by an armed Teacher who is trying to protect your children in school!
Teachers wouldn't be working in school if they didn't love and care about kids and they also understand them and how children act. They are not likely to harm kids.
Pencils and school books can be used as weapons, but, how often do you hear about Teachers or anybody killing kids with a pencil?
People are much less likely to attack another person or place if they know the other person has a gun or there's a gun or person with a gun inside the building.

HOW I DELT WITH A MICROSOFT TECH SUPPORT SCAMMER:

HOW I DELT WITH A MICROSOFT TECH SUPPORT SCAMMER:

I got a call from a Microsoft tech support scammer in India, they left me a message saying Microsoft has detected a problem with my computer and I had to call them back. I knew it was just a scam. I have gotten calls like this several times before. I usually don't return the calls. But, today, I decided to have some fun and waste their time! The longer they talk to me on the phone, the less time they have to call other people and actually call somebody who believes that it's true and they have to pay these people to fix a nonexistent problem with their computer!
He asked if I was a "Thirdtender"? (SP?) What's a "thirdtender"?

I'm not sure how it's spelled or the exact pronunciation. But it sounded like the Microsoft scammer was saying: Thirdtender. I couldn't understand the guy very well. He is obviously from India and I was talking on the phone with Mr Scammer. He told me he was from California.
Then he said someone in Chicago was using my Internet connection. I said, "Really? How is that possible? I live in FL."
He said, somebody hacked into my Internet connection, not my computer, my Internet connection, all the way from Chicago!
Then he wanted me to turn on my computer and let him have remote access to it. He asked if I was near my computer, I said, no, not right now. He went on and asked if I've let anybody else use my computer lately. I said, "Only one person, a close friend,  I hope he didn't do anything to it! OMG! I am getting a little nervous about this now!"
I started acting and talking as if I were really nervous.
"Do you know who it is that is hacking into my Internet?"
He said, "Well no, but we would like to find out."
I said, "I hope you can figure it out and tell me their address, so I can sue them!"
He asked if I was a "thirdtender". What is a thirdtender or something that sounds like that?
I got a message on my phone to call Microsoft. I immediately knew it was a scam, because Microsoft will never call you and tell you that you have a virus or any other problems with your computer! They never will! Neither will Apple or any other computer company. The IRS will not call you either. The IRS will usually send you a letter, probably certified mail, if they suspect you of tax fraud or other legal issues.
I called the scammers back just to waste their time. I had him on the phone for 11 minutes and 16 seconds! I just played along with it to waste the scammers time!
At the end, I kind of felt bad about doing this, because I told him I knew it was a scam and I was just playing along to waste his time. The scammer actually was being very nice after that. He even complimented my acting skills and said I should move to Hollywood! Because, he believed I was serious and I was having issues with my computer, I was panicking and he believed I was really scared, nervous and concerned that my Internet and computer were really being attacked by hackers!
When I was talking to him and acting really scared and freaking out, he told me to calm down and Go drink a glass of water! I waited about One minute, then came back to the phone, I told him I was fine now.
I couldn't think of anything else to say at this point, so, that us when I let the scammer know that I didn't believe him and I knew it was a scam and that I knew he was probably calling from India, not California. Then I looked at my phone to see how long I was on the phone. I told him that I just wasted 11 minutes and 16 seconds of his time!
This was the point where he started acting really cool and nice. He told me I was funny and I'm a good actor and I should go to Hollywood!
