"Silent Night, Deadly Night!":

On Christmas Eve, Batman in on the lookout for a criminal who was been attacking several men dressed as Santa Claus whose job is to collect money for charity. After a long chase, Batman finally encounters the attacker and finds out that he is a jobless man who robs street-corner Santas of their collections in order to get money to pay his bills and give his niece a decent Christmas. The man explains that he was fired from his old job and Batman understands the man's position, but he makes no excuses for the crimes he committed. Then, the man makes up his mind and realizes that he has been taking his anger against society, when he should have used it against his former employer.

 The man attacks Batman and sets out to attack his former boss, not knowing that the man was frail and old. Batman recovers in time to prevent the man from killing his former boss, but as soon as he reaches them, Batman is shocked to see that the jobless man is helping the elder man. Batman takes them to a nearby hospital, where the elder man is saved and everybody enjoys a true Christmas Eve after this unexpected miracle.

A Christmas tale originally presented in Batman #15, "The Loneliest Men in the World," script by Don Cameron, pencils by Bob Kane, inks by Jerry Robinson;

For this Christmas, Batman and Robin decide to play Santa to "the loneliest men in the world": those who have no friends at that festive time of the year. But criminal Dirk Dagner decides to use this plan for his own financial advantage!

As the dynamic duo travel across Gotham, spreading the joy of the season, Dirk and his gang follow them with the intention of ruining their plans. After two failed attempts, Dirk and his comrades are finally captured and the dynamic duo spend Christmas Eve with some of the best people in Gotham.

"Soul-Pit!", script by Mike Friedrich, pencils by Rich Buckler, inks by Dick Giordano;

Robin and three of his friends are visiting Gotham City when they encounter some violent religious group and briefly brawl with them as they try to convert a resistant Rick Asher. Later, during a prayer meeting, Robin experiences a vision from Terri Bergstrom, urging him to find Rick's abusive father so that he can be healed.

Abandoned Louisiana - The Pirate's Cove Water Park / Resort in Iowa

Image
 About ten minutes east of the city of Lake Charles are the remains of an abandoned water park . The decaying structures are clearly visible from the busy I-10 freeway and for years drivers have wondered about it's history and why it was left for dead.   The Pirate's Cove Water Park actually has a rather interesting story behind it. A story that has been repeated over and over again, unfortunately, here in Louisiana. It's just another example of how government bureaucracy in this state killed an enterprise before it could ever get off the ground. Construction on the park began in 2008 and it was scheduled to open sometime in 2010. The sprawling complex was envisioned as an oasis from the hot summer heat that would feature luxurious amenities like a 900 foot long lazy river, a giant splash pad for the kids and eventually a five star hotel. The Pirate's Cove would have been an obvious tourist destination that could have brought much needed tax dollars and employment oppo...

Abandoned Louisiana - The Old Hightower Family Home in Dodson

I have to admit that I have been hanging on to these photos for a couple of months now just looking for the right minute to post them. Back in November I was traveling up to El Dorado, Arkansas and I passed through the small town of Dodson. While driving through town my eyes spotted a very attractive old house up on a hill and I just had to stop and take a few photos of it. I honestly don't know the history of this house, but I'm sure some local will send me message telling me all about it (and someone did see the UPDATE ), and it's not as cool as an abandoned railroad locomotive or old movie house but it really spoke to me. I have to wonder about the people who used to live in it and how it ended up in the state it is now. Anyone can see that it was a beautiful house long ago. What happened? How did such a grand residence end up like this? Those are questions that I can't answer unfortunately.  Unfortunately a site like this isn't all that uncommon here in Louisian...
