Hookers or Cake

Where the self-obsessed get serious about silly
I'm too wacky to be hip.

      • ------------------------------------- How this blog got its name

      ------------------------------------ There was a large painting of Evel Knievel shaking hands with Richard Nixon. It hung in the Mayors office. Late one evening after everyone went home. I took it down to the lab. I zoomed in on Evel’s left eye a 100x and enhanced it. It was an address. I went to the address. It was a modest, 1970’s style, split level ranch home in the suburbs.

      ----------------------------------- Inside I found a dead parrot lying on a waterbed. I revived the parrot with some saltines and adrenaline. We became good friends. The parrots name was Randy. One night a few years later while Randy and me played Gin Rummy, he sang me a song about a fire. The title of this blog was never mentioned but I sensed it, and Randy confirmed it by giving me ‘THE LOOK’.

            My good friend, former roommate, and future collaborator Carlos Londono is debuting his film “All Wars End” at the Fort Lauderdale Film Festival tomorrow night. Its also doubling as a fund raiser for The Wounded Warriors of South Florida as the film is about a US Marine dealing with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). 

            If you live in South Florida and want to go its this Tuesday at 7pm at Cinema Paradiso. If you can’t make it because you live in New York or California or some other far away locale you can still .

            As you can see by the preview Carlos is a talented young filmmaker and I can vouch for him being a real stand up human being. Hopefully you will see something here in the next few months about us doing some short film together.

            Thanks for your time and support and maybe I’ll see ya at the premiere.
