Or at the very least, the one with the most personal resonance to me. Only posting it in fact because I finished writing a story this weekend. And yet I still die laughing (while wanting to strangle Stewie by the time he gets to the end)… Enjoy…
The question I get most often from those of you who have tracked my progress is ‘Have you written anything new recently?’ And the answer for most of the past year has been no, for a lot of reasons. In no particular order, the time and commitment necessary to make a short film, […]
Ah. I was all hyped to talk about this one when I knew it would be today’s song (I wrote my first ‘action fight sequence’ to this), but now I just feel melancholy. Hopefully it has the opposite effect on you going into the weekend. Enjoy!
This weekend went beyond my expectations so we’ll delay the music for a day. I’d say from Christmas to now I’ve seen 80 to 90 percent of the people I care about, and certain questions keep coming up repeatedly. So here’s a quick Frequently Asked Questions post for the other 10 percent of you […]
I have a confession… Even in my mind’s eye, when I made to this point where everything I wanted become more tangible and less hypothetical…I didn’t think I would be enjoying myself. That’s the truth behind the joke of ‘the Batman’ and my militant phase. I have never questioned my various talents or my […]
Tomorrow’s post is one of my annual ‘speak from the heart’ posts, so you’ll forgive me if I use today to speak from the heart (and other areas)… One of my cousins turned me onto this cat a couple years ago. There are a lot of great interpretations of this song (Coltrane and Andre […]
I’ve had a goofy smile on my face all day so it felt like the right day to post this one. Won’t make it to Vegas this exact weekend, but I’ll make my annual trip soon enough. Malik Ocean: (to all my exes I’m still friendly with) See? I told you. I knew what […]
I got an email from one of my long lost college aces last week. While we tease him for his annual ‘I’m still alive’ messages; it was a nice reminder of college days swiftly passed, and my overall policy about friendship: unless we ended on extremely bad terms (which is honestly, not even 5 […]
I was content to sit back and chuckle at the Onion for trying to make a joke (which is what they do for a living), and of the 10,000 possible angles they could have gone with, they chose the worst. What this week taught me more than anything was they don’t have any sistas […]
The mythology/story behind this song is pretty straightforward: John was only seeing the beginning of the massive heat he was going to take for leaving his wife for Yoko, so this song was a plea to his new wife, ‘Don’t Let Me Down’. Probably not in the top 20 of most anyone’s favorite Beatle […]
