Description

Before I jump into my RANT on the theme park Six Flags I want to talk about my very special and emotional interview of my father.  I have wanted to sit down and interview my dad for a long time.  I finally got the chance a few weeks back and wanted to save this interview for Fathers Day.  
 
This interview really means a lot to me but the hardest thing is coming up with questions to ask.  Once we got past the first few minutes our conversations started to flow as if we were out to dinner and no one was recording it.  You are going to get a look at things that no one really knows about me.  I highly encourage you to sit down with your parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters for an interview.  Ask them questions, record it, share it with your family and enjoy it.  You never know when that chance will pass you by leaving you to never speak with them again.  
 
I kind of had a feeling this interview would take an emotion turn and it did.  Before it ends I think many of you guys may be reaching for a box of tissues to wipe away some kind of tears.  I know this is a personal interview between my dad and I but I am sure it will resonate with you all. 
 
Next up I was denied access to Six Flags Great Adventure which is a theme park in New Jersey because of my I SHOOT RAW Shirt.  I was told that my shirt was inappropriate for their “family friendly” park that is on private property.  
 
I was honestly taken back with being told that I could not come into the park with my shirt.  I have been wearing them for four years and have traveled the world with not one issue.  When I asked what was inappropriate they would not tell me, so I chose to take out my phone to film me asking the question.  I included the entire interview un-edited.  I did not want to cut anything from it so you could hear and see the exact conversation. 
 
I was not happy that they would not tell me what about my shirt was inappropriate.  I fully understand my shirt has double meaning but to not get an explanation is pretty infuriating.  The one thing my brother was told was that my shirt could have double meaning.  That may be true but you should SEE the shirts they sell in their stores that are even worse than mine.  I have the images posted on the website. 
 
Now that that is out of the way we jump into Photo News which was loaded this week. We have Apple Photo News, Kickstarter projects and much much more.
