Laughing is Forever is my second book. And while it’s gritty, rhythmic, dark and dangerous it’s also fun, quirky, and inquisitive. Topics range from growing up in the Deep South to questioning the mainstream narrative of how it all . . . came to be. I want people who don’t read much and who hate poetry (the largest demographic) to give this collection a chance and fall in love with books by reading something that they can relate to and/or be awed by. Laughing is Forever is a standalone book, a brand-new beast, but follows in the footsteps of Blameforest in the sense that it’s reinventing what poetry can be. And hopefully inspiring folks to take risks with their own work and stand out from the maddening crowd.

You don’t poke the bear, and you don’t bother it while it’s trying to eat either. Some people just don’t understand that. From the looks of this video that’s gone viral on social media, a large group of “some people” were visiting the beautiful Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming and showcased their lack of knowledge when it comes to outdoor safety.

For those not well versed in moose facts, the shedding of antlers is normally a fairly lengthy process. It happens only once a year after mating season and usually consists of a moose losing one antler at a time. It’s incredibly rare for a bull moose to lose both at the same time—and even more rare that someone would actually catch it on film. That’s why shed hunter (yes, that’s a real term) and woodsman Derek Burgoyne calls his footage of the phenomenon a “one-in-a-million” shot.

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

The black bear, whom officials believe was responsible for mauling and injuring a 3-year-old girl in Yellowstone National Park on Sunday night, was captured and euthanized by park authorities on Monday afternoon, according to the Associated Press. Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Game warden Randy Hutzenbiler told the Associated Press that “there were attractants in the area,” such as trash and food, which led the bear to the campsite at around 10 p.m. on Sunday. The girl was then mauled by the bear in her tent and rushed to a Billings, Montana, hospital, where her condition has not been revealed to the press. Officials then laid traps around the campsite, capturing a bear which they claimed was responsible for the attack on Monday. The bear was then euthanized by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks officials. In July, a Montana man shot and killed a black bear after being mauled by it while picking berries.Read it at Associated PressRead more at The Daily Beast.

Wolf 907F, an alpha female grey wolf in Yellowstone National Park, recently gave birth to her 10th litter of pups at 11, a rare feat given that grey wolves typically live only three to four years. This longevity and prolificacy are believed to set a record for the park.

If you need a side mirror removed from your car, I know a bear…. That service isn’t really needed all that much, but if you did ever want to have the outer piece of your car removed, there’s a natural way of doing so. You don’ even have to go to a body shop (though you might have to afterwards), and you get to see wildlife while you are taking care of the mirror removal.
