Things On My Mind: Adorable Kid, My Students Artwork, Charles R. Knight, Godzilla vs Kong (Journey to the Center of the Earth, At the Earth’s Core, and More), Loch Ness Monster, UFOs, Simone Biles, Sha’Carri Richardson, Tom Lister Jr., and Rihanna.
The first thing on my mind is this adorable kid in this video.
- I love the interaction he has with his mother.
- She tells him that all her money is being spent feeding him.
- His response to her is so adorable.
- This kid is already more of a celebrity than I will ever be.

My Students’ Artwork at Asbury Park High School
The next thing on my mind is the wonderful artwork that my Asbury Park High School Students have done.
Student creations include:
- Ja’Shawn Gadson drew this amazing T-Rex type of dinosaur.
- Jose Jordan drew this amazing sea monster battle.
- Luis Martinez Martinez drew this Star Spangled War Stories cover which could be an issue of a war stories comic book.
Check out his drawing compared to one of the actual issues.

Star Spangled War Stories
I think my young artists are getting to be just as good as Charles R. Knight and his artwork on preshistoric life.
- Dinosaurs
- brontosaurus
The Panther Mobile
Besides his dinosaur drawing, Ja’Shawn Gadson had to create his own car this school year for one of my enrichment projects.
He created:
- The Panther Mobile
- Super-fast
- Super safe
- Will make your life super exciting
Check out his artwork below.
Godzilla vs Kong and Classic Adventure Stories
Another thing on my mind is how part of Godzilla vs Kong is in a way similar to stories such as:
- Jules Verne’s A Journey to the Center of the Earth
- Edgar Rice Burroughs’ At the Earth’s Core
All three deal with:
- A world beneath the surface of the Earth
- Prehistoric life that has not been seen by the eyes of man
In Godzilla vs Kong, when Kong went underground into the Hollow Earth, it reminded me of a scene from the movie The Fabulous Journey to the Center of the Earth.
The images below show:
- A comic book of the original story of A Journey to the Center of the Earth
- A scene from Godzilla vs Kong when Kong is battling the Nozuki (Warbat)
- Two rhino dinosaurs fighting in At the Earth’s Core
- Godzilla vs Kong again with Kong in Hollow Earth
- The giant gorilla from The Fabulous Journey to the Center of the Earth


Rumors of a Son of Kong Sequel
Relating this topic to another current event is the possible sequel to Godzilla vs Kong.
Rumored title:
- Son of Kong
The 1933 Son of Kong movie was about:
- Kong’s son
- Helping individuals find the treasure of Skull Island
I hope they take the character of Gaw from Kong: King of Skull Island.
Gaw was:
- A very large monstrous velociraptor type creature
- The villain of the story

More Godzilla vs Kong Memories
The final thing with this topic is how Godzilla vs Kong reminded me of the movie The Land That Time Forgot (1974).
It reminded me of:
- Godzilla crawling up on the battleship
- The sea monster in The Land That Time Forgot attacking the submarine
- Movie screenshot
Check out how Kong pulling on Mecha Godzilla’s mouth in Godzilla vs Kong is very similar to a lot of Kong’s wins.

Loch Ness Monster: A Classroom Investigation
Since we are in the realm of monsters, another thing on my mind is that I believe that Robert Rines discovered some sort of creature in Loch Ness.
My students and I concluded:
- He took a picture of something alive
Things on my mind: UFO Sightings and Cosmic Questions
In addition to the Loch Ness Monster, another thing on my mind is the sightings of UFOs.
Recent thoughts:
- There are so many UFO stories out.
- Are we going to be invaded by little green men.
- Is there life on other planets.
This made me think back to the Turok Son of Stone comic which appeared to have:
- A Loch Ness type monster
- Eating an alien type creature
- With UFOs
US releases UFO report with ‘no explanation’ for 143 sightings | DW News – YouTube
Things On My Mind: Simone Biles and Sha’Carri Richardson: Olympic Powerhouses
Another thing on my mind is the summer Olympics.
Two incredible stars that will dominate their sports are:
- Simone Biles
- Sha’Carri Richardson
Simone Biles is:
- Incredible
- Powerful
- Unmatched in flipping, jumping, and maneuvering
Sha’Carri Richardson is:
- Fast
- Strong
- Full of endurance
Expect both on the highest gold platform.
Things on My Mind: Remembering Tom Lister Jr.
The final thing on my mind is that so many unfortunate things happened during the pandemic.
One thing that caught my attention was the passing of Tom Lister Jr.
To me he always will be:
- The wrestler Zeus
He passed away due to Covid 19. This was heart breaking.
I remembered:
- Tom Lister Jr. as Zeus dominating Hulk Hogan
- His cameo in The Dark Knight
- Saying “hey there is Zeus” every time he appeared

Things on My Mind: Rihanna’s “Diamonds” and Pandemic Stress Relief
Speaking of the pandemic, one thing that helped me with the stress of dealing with the threat of Covid 19 was Rihanna’s song Diamonds.
To me this song is:
- Peaceful
- Beautiful
- Helpful for sleep during stressful news
Now with vaccines, hopefully this nightmare of a pandemic will end.
Check out her song Rihanna – Diamonds – YouTube.
