Kenny Fucking Glenn

So the internet supertrolls Kenny and Weston Glenn have become hated worldwide for their torture and abuse of their cat Dusty. They video taped these disgusting acts and posted them to youtube, thinking their ski masks would hide their identity. The internet hate machine hunted their sorry asses down. Here's the E.D. article with quite a few useful links on their page. Go give these future serial killers your regards.
It turns out they had videos of a second cat that was also tortured. There is a petition to try these teens as adults with over 10K signatures so far. However, their parents are rich. Oil rich. Juvenile services gave these sick bastards community service. Their parents took their dirt bikes away. Um.. it's winter. No punishment whatsoever. Meanwhile, Kenny Glenn has been logging onto youtube regularly throughout the day. It's quite obvious these parents are complete and utter failures. How are they going to get them out of it when these teens are caught abusing a child?
The cats are up for adoption after being cleared by a vet. I have heard there is also a dog in the house and I want to know why ALL animals were not removed from this hellhole. I emailed the Lawton news with my question, but with no response. Being the animal lover that I am, this is one of the sickest and most unforgiveable things a person can do. It's utterly disgusting.

Now that I've vented a little.. I apologize for not updating lately. I am sick with multiple issues and will be having surgery (possibly more than one) soon. I'm hoping to get better soon so I can go exploring again! I have some new photo techniques I want to try out, and I'm getting ready for Spring. My organic seed shop is slowly picking up and I'm growing seedlings for sale in Spring. I'm planning new gardens and working with the gourds I grew last season and dried over the winter. :) I have seen some stunning gourd art... I'd love to learn how to do some of those eventually, but for now I'm making bird houses. :)
Now for a few photos... Therese Bugnet is a stunning heirloom rose with a heavy damask scent. I have three Old roses, and they all smell wonderful!! Lovely, Dark and Deep is a tea rose I've had for quite a while, and is named "Nearly Black". Nature's Music is of a Velvet Queen heirloom sunflower grown by Native Americans and is just stunning. Botanica Noir is of datura Angel's Trumpet, which is night blooming and great for evening gardens. It's an experimental one to me and I'm not sure how much I like it.. what do you think? Busy Bumblebee is of the flower elecampane, also known as elfwort.
This is a break from the urban exploration but I hope you enjoy it!

Dusty

I know I don't use this site for much more than a scratch pad, but I posted on myspace and various spots on the web about this.

Two sick little bastards who happen to be juveniles tortured their cat and posted videos of it on youtube. This entire thing has had me literally sick. I couldn't bear to watch the videos but I've been keeping close tabs on this.
Here's some info:
The ED site explaining how it went down, with various links. I suggest you go post your disgust on the various sites as I did:

The petition to try them as adults:
http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/justicetodusty

These are serial killers in the making, have no doubt about that.

When I twittered about this, jaisjewels was as outraged as I have been, and has been passing word around as well. Tonight she sent me an article saying these monsters are being tried as juveniles. Their parents are rich, so they will likely get no more than a slap on the wrist from law enforcement, but people worldwide are in arms about this.

There will be justice for Dusty. Kenny Glenn and his brother's lives are ruined.

Schizophrenia Part 2

This is a follow up to part one, which can be read here.

In my first entry, I mentioned the trees that speak of radio waves and Russia, that I thought were done during a bad period. I went back to those trees to take another look. On my way in I saw a lot of deer, but did not see the white one. I hope that he is still there, but my fear is that someone got to him. After I first came across him, I researched piebald deer, and read that it's a genetic mutation that appears in less than 1% of deer. The deer there are somewhat isolated, so I'm sure there are others with the gene. I saw one other with a few white splotches on his leg, but none that even came close to the white one pictured. I think if he is gone that the mystery of the place will be diminished, but I also think he will appear again. There is always something somewhat mystical about a pure white animal outside of the arctic. In mythology they are often seen as spirit animals, messengers or protectors. After reading my first blog, a customer told me she thought it was the spirit of the patient I've written about, and I must admit the same thought occurred to me.

The entire place is somewhat odd. There is an old historical mill along the river, a mansion, and an entire neighborhood that sits empty. The neighborhood was originally meant for military, but now the houses sit empty. It's such a waste. They are set to be demolished, but those houses look to be much better than my own, and they are waterfront property. I want to explore these streets of empty houses, and see what might be behind all those closed doors. However, besides all the hospital traffic, there are also families that visit the water on the weekends, especially in warm weather.

The trees I was after are located at the end of the strip of woods, near the road that winds through the complex. I parked and headed into the woods, startling a herd of deer and about 6 squirrels along the way. :) I also came across a turtle, which was odd considering that it was December 30th and cold. Every time I go back there, the power of the trees hit me again. To be surrounded by the carved trees is a little like being inside an aberrant mind. In Spring I plan to resume my exploration of the trees and the parts I have yet to look through.

There are so many trees that I can't make out or that have died and half rotted away. Some of them are just not photogenic or are such a jumble I think he must have carved over them with several different messages. I plan to get some tracing paper and try rubbings on the trees to see if that helps any. There are quite a few that have only numbers on them, sometimes in a certain formation, and I wonder if they have to do with his time in service. Perhaps they were his troop number or something similar. I'll post one with this blog and hope that a reader might know better than I do.

The ones I present for sale are the ones I can make out that have messages on them, and the ones I find interesting. The first new one I call "The Voice of Archangels", and from what I can make out it says: "Jehovah the Divine in junction...is to be ready at all times for the Lord appeared in..(flaming something?)..speaking with the voice of Archangels Trumpets". That one sits off by itself, and I sometimes wonder if their location has any significance. Another states: "To Assemble U.S. Grand Jury and read this to all Treasury employees - Pay his salary." Who is the "he" he speaks of? I always find more questions than answers while exploring the trees. There is another tree, not pictured, that I think of as the Armageddon tree. It bears this message: "All authority is given unto me in Heaven and earth to conscript the...(something)...the good nations for the Lord's battle of Armageddon." This tree has a date of 1967, one of the latest I've seen.

I moved on to the tree I referenced in the first entry, that speaks of radio waves. I titled this one "Woe". This tree is almost completely covered. It's difficult to read, not only due to age, but just due to the sheer amount of carving. Some of the messages circle the tree, and some are in small circular patterns. Others are vertical, or almost like scribbles on a notepad. This tree is dated 1937, which makes it one of the earliest, and it is near the edge of the woods. It must have been during a bad period, or before he had been treated for long. The side pictured reads:
"Woe unto Communists - they carry the mark of the beast.
Judgement (in a circle), August 15, 1937
Woe - Judgement on the beast - An utter end.
Unto inquisition - Radio Signals (This gentleman believed that Hitler was sending messages via radio waves through his teeth)
There is more, but it is difficult to make out. The other side continues, with the names of several political leaders, including Hitler, and says there is no Red Russia and speaks of the war.

I want to know who this man was. There are a few other carvings here and there that are not his. His are distinct, and he has a few writing idiosyncrasies, such as how he writes his 5s versus his S's. To me they are sort of a desecration. This man was pouring his mind out onto these trees, and to see so and so hearts so and so in the midst of these is jarring. I have seen what I presume was his name carved on a few trees, but have been unable to find anything on google about him. I think I need to do more investigating into who he was and what happened to him. I would still like to do a coffee table book of the trees, and write about him, but if I do it myself it's expensive, and I'm not sure how much interest there would be. When I do more research I may try to approach a publisher.

I hope you enjoy these blogs, and comments are always welcome!
