What I Learned This Weekend…

  I stand corrected. The past month or so as I’ve taken on…you know, I can’t even tell you off the top of my head how many projects I’m simultaneously working on, on some level right now.  But as a lot of golden opportunities all hit me at once (because that’s the way it has […]

Song of the Day – ‘How Deep Is Your Love?’

  I’m scapegoating Stevie Wonder for most of this, but now that my attention is back on finishing the Lady rewrite, and more importantly since I’m on a relatively tight deadline, I picked three movie star names out of the list of ‘actresses you guys suggested I should write parts for’, and I’m using those ladies as […]

Song of the Day – ‘I Wanna Get Next to You’

  I know I’m not the only one who considers this one of the favorite scene/sequences in black cinema.  And as a guy who gravitates toward silliness in romance as much as I do in life, I also know I’m not the only one who sees myself in the ‘shirt open to the navel, posted […]

Master Class in Comedy

Song of the Day – ‘We Can Work It Out’

Song of the Day – ‘The Boys of Summer’

  Things are moving in the right direction. Everyone I’ve talked to so far about Angel wants to help and likes what I’m trying to do, which of course motivates me and makes me happy.  It’s so many moving parts to make it come out the way I want it to come out.  I’m the Captain on […]

The Art of the Heel Turn

  So let’s mix my circles a little today… Here’s a big part of my continued appreciation of wrestling.  It’s what made C.M. Punk, Ric Flair, and the man above Shawn Michaels all names you have to consider as the all time best: the ability to be convincing as either a complete self centered jackass […]
