Whee! We’re getting rain! I know that for most of you a statement like that will elicit the response, “What’s the big deal?” But for those of us in the Los Angeles area… well it’s heaven. Little drops of water that fall from the sky, who ever heard of such a thing? Joy! It’s tapping at my window as we speak. In The Rain – The Dramatics When the old man would get mad at me (a daily occurrence) he’d [...]
Whenever the laws of any state are broken, a duly authorized organization swings into action. It’s Broderick Crawford day! He was the original Horatio Caine, wearing dapper suits and tooling around the big city in a behemoth of a car… and HE did it in luxurious black and white. His puns were better than CSI:Miami even though he was living in an age where people still communicated by grunting. There’s a one-eleven in progress… put the light on the roof! [...]
Wow! Did one of those remaining acid bubbles go off in my head last night after I fell asleep? What was that all about? I mean, I have lots of lucid wacked out dreams but last night… who took over the cinema in my head? And will these dreams be on cable later in the year? They were groovy. Here’re some dreaming songs… Spill the Wine – Eric Burdon & War This had to be one of the freakiest dreams [...]

Now I’m not making any judgments on that whole [...]
Holy crap! I could deal with walking with my hand in my coat (as if I’m carrying), surveying my immediate surroundings like my head is on a swivel and shining my 4100 lumen Torch into every suspicious dark corner… but now there’s a serial cantaloupe on the loose. None of you are safe! Beware! Fifty-Fifty Clown – Cocteau Twins Clowns! This is a little to obvious because everyone knows the horror of these painted demons but in this instance it appears [...]
We, as citizens of this planet, have a lot to be proud of… and quite a lot to be ashamed about. Today I address our dehumanization. We exist in a society where: the thought of someone dying because they don’t have health insurance is applauded, those of us with the weakest of voices are demonized as being the root evil of our existence, we allow people to become ghosts… to dissipate. We see right through them. Even our heroes. Corporations should not [...]
