I’m just wondering because they seem to be all the rage. I haven’t seen any here in LA, but online they’re spoken about all day. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, you’ve been living under a genuine mountain rock on the edge of a cliff in Wyoming. A few minutes on the internet […]

A look back to 2001.

Four days after 9/11, I felt the need to address my public diary with this entry.  I apologize for some of the melodramatic bits, but let’s all agree that most of us still weren’t right in the head after this tragedy.  Some of the sentiment still rings true:  Sit back in your easy chair but […]

Materialism in Elementary School aka The Lost Lunch Box

2015.04.29 | Random

Back in the late 70’s early 80’s, Tupperware came out with this lunch box which for for all intents and purposes was inspired by a Japanese bento box. We weren’t well off enough to splurge on Tupperware, nor did my family like to waste money on things that had simpler utilitarian alternatives (brown bags). So […]

Rose Colored Glasses or The Age of Wisdom

We sometimes go through life looking backwards, reaching deeper as the years go by and what do we see? Are the memories softer because of age, or are they painted with a varnish of wisdom that comes through living through them? This particular weekend has brought back a lot of memories that were once filled […]

It was 1983 and Mr. Fox was planning to get married. He had arrived in Los Angeles to tie the knot with his betrothed but like many love connections, he quickly learned that the family of the bride-to-be was not keen on living arrangements coupled with sin, so he was forced to quickly find a cheap […]

Top Five Moments as a Production Assistant aka Gopher

One of my most loved and used pieces of advice when talking to new writers is to get out and actually make a film before you attempt to write one. Is it mandatory? No. Will it improve your writing? Yes, in folds. But with the folding comes delight, terror, and humor. Here are my top […]

Never upstage a clown.

This evening’s Twitter hashtag game was to state reasons why you were fired from a job in two words. My answer: Upstaged Clown. #ReasonYouWereFiredInTwoWords  The hashtag immediately brought forth some sour memories as a college student, drudging through a small town trying to find ANY job that has even a shred of connection to the Performing Arts.

My memories of Mr. Nimoy

It’s been a couple days since the world lost Mr. Nimoy, and not many people who know me now, know that I have a deep connection with Star Trek. Sometimes it’s embarrassing to let people know this information, especially if someone willingly laughs at you for being in an inconsolable state of drunken shock when […]

I am going to have to wrap up 2014 on a down note. I’m usually a great optimist, and I try to live in the moment but several situations have negated this possibility for the start of the year. 1) I lost a friend that I no longer communicated with over inane roommate complications.  There was no […]

The end of a useless experiment.

I recently spent some time on twitter in an attempt to learn why certain keywords trend; whether they’re paid for as an advertisement or truly blooming as a result of the population. While searching #disneyland, because I was sure it was a trending topic as a result of advertisement (I was wrong), I chose to […]
