Blog Anniversary Celebration...

Continues on.  It was exactly a year ago to the day that I first blogged about a special Friday theme:  Killer Plants (a personal favorite of mine).  Due to some stuff that was going on yesterday, the blog didn't get filled out they way that I wanted, so I'm going to include some features here on my favorite REAL killer plants in between some movies that have be fun to either write about or create photo galleries from over the past year (and 3 of them include Jessie Eisenberg!).  Starting off with
