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’.

            I want to make romantic comedies about horrible human beings falling in love. Oh how the audience will hate them. I assure you that there will be no redemptive qualities whatsoever. And in the final scene, when it looks like the stars are about to have their faces eaten by crazed animals, they will barely escape and enjoy their first passionate kiss. The music will swell and all the really nice, polite human beings in the audience will be outraged, and lustily boo love. I’ll call it, “Assholes in Love” It will be a smash hit and there will be endless sequels.
