my heroes are getting old

the almighty Pac man lost..

i'm trying to come to terms with this quickly so i can enjoy what's left of the weekend

well you gotta get hit by reality every once in a while

gotta have the bitter to notice the sweet

it's also the nature of boxing... if you're losing in points it doesn't matter because you can win with just one punch

we have to "protect ourselves at all times"

we have to not get overindulgent or cocky

we have to get knocked on our ass sometimes and feel the agony of defeat

and then we have to get up because "failure is arbitrary".. . what is the legacy you leave?  what are the values you have instilled?  what are your stories you've given us?

documentary film idea

o m g

so many ideas for this film/ film's direction/ interview/ plots

this documentary is named DRAG...

more info to come

i'm so excited to be on a new idea for a film again

haza!

DRAG... don't wanna spill all the beans yet.. just gonna let it brew in my mind for now

news bloopers

i can't explain it.. but my newest addiction in the last few months have been news bloopers

if there is a news blooper on youtube, chances are: I have already seen it

I have no clue what brought this addiction on seriously

being able to improv your way out of a disaster??

the theatre of live entertainment and "train wrecks.. live" ??

i really don't know why bloopers ... particularly on the news of all things... i dunno

throw me a bone here... must examine later on

just saw ruby sparks

so in this movie Ruby Sparks.. wow btw today i muscled through 1/2 of season 1 of Community... really really attracted to the short bubbly brunette

ok here' my short review of the film..  I feel it was a great great intriguing and compelling premise.  At times, I felt the author/ screenwriter took some of these thoughts out of my own head at times.  But... I think at the end it kind of loses its bearings.  I'm fine with the unanswered questions that some movies will sloppily leave you at the end, but what I found sloppy in its execution was the denouement.  HA.. for the first time I used denouement in this blog... and o my goodness I realize I misspelled my damn play on words.. how embarrassing!!  Fuck a Duck!

original point about the movie.. there was this moment or thought the author has about melding the dreamworld/imagination with reality/real world...  That was basically my most favorite theme of the movie.. It's kind of the premise of Buwan.. and I really feel it's something I want to have as a theme in many of my future films.  And it was also one of the many thoughts in the film that I think this screenwriter chick actually stole out of my brain, damn her.  Is she going out with that scrawny Paul Dano really??  Fuck Ducks... multiple Ducks!

Spring Cleaning

Well, somehow I can't rid myself of some of this clutter..... I want to be able to one day take on the Buddhist way of thinking and just not have any belongings and/or not have any belongings have a control over me.

here is my rankings of stuff I would grab if there was a fire

1. Computer
2. X Box
3. LG LCD flat screen TV
4. my jerseys
5. diplomas
6. the awesome pic of my parents on that sand bar
7. tattoo fund coin jar
8. hat collection
9. expensive ass cameras I've accrued (i really should think about selling one to help debt)
10. some .. favorite shirts??

honestly I really believe this computer.. with some of my writings and ideas and video editing possibilities is the most important thing on this list... I'm thinking once I own my own editing/ sound studio I'll not need this computer anymore...   hmmm is that anti- what I was going for

something... i dunno

trying trying trying to remember what in the world i had said in my head earlier in the day that i wanted to blog about

let's just write and keep writing what about that?

the reason I love the way Luc Besson does action is because of how romantic his action is.  There is something about the way Leon is visually shot, the way he pops out of nowhere to surprise the unsuspecting and quickly and so precisely knocks out or incapacitates his victims.

one day my dream would be to use, as Spike Lee does, a really awesome score for my film

earlier today an older cranky gentleman was being all pissy that i didn't give him his check right away and earlier was a little pissy that we didn't have hash browns, but instead fried potatoes ...

i saw him at a bar later and another bar later... i wanted to tell him.. if we were to have any sort of a conversation, that i don't really care what he thought of my services to him, it didn't affect my day at all, in fact it made me mildly think of the rare pretentious snobby pricks that Belmont Shore area restaurants might get every once in a while... but in conclusion, I, was and am having a wonderful day and that I feel, once again sorry for reusing this term but, mildly sad that you (this old fart) are having a crappy day... which is only  obvious since you feel it necessary to complain about things that are so minor in LIFE

......nope.. can't remember what i wanted to say... getting sleepy.. gnight

back to saying's / mottos

there is no love without drama

once I say you can be a bartender, that's when your barback training is done

never drink without toasting,... only drink in celebration of something, of life, of friendship, of love...  otherwise you must be drinking alone, otherwise your reason for drinking is something that may seem trivial,,,,,,,,,    still a work in progress
