Off To PEI

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

On Friday we head out east to visit my sister, her family and some very dear friends in Prince Edward Island enjoying the fresh air.

Speaking of fresh air -

While I enjoy the east coast breezes I shan’t be without the interwebs but I might get more lazy than I already am.  So this is the post that says I’ll be out of town for a while.

If I remembered to pay the bills then this web site will stay up and running while I’m gone.  If not — well then you won’t be reading this and it won’t matter.

Cheers.

P. S.  In keeping with the photo above, I just had to post this video because the tune is very catchy.  It’s Storm Large‘s song 8 MILES WIDE, from her hit one-woman show Crazy Enough and it was sent to me by Fred via The Bloggess.

Everybody sing!

B-Movies!!

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

Shouting B-Movies isn’t as cool as shouting WOLVERINES!! but for today it’ll have to do.

My sister, Toni, sent me a link for the AMCTV B-Movies site and it is just chock full of delicious cheese.

Old Roger Corman flicks, Hercules sand and sandal epics, John Carpenter‘s cult fave Dark Star, biker movies and all sorts of really awfully wonderfully crappy drive-in movie fare.

It’s like I’m back in my youth and staying up to the wee hours on a school night just to watch old films on CKVR because my little hole of a town didn’t have a movie theatre.

That’s a long winded way of saying I’ve been busy trying to get the next episode of In Teh Toobs finished – almost done – while also trying to get the Ruffus site launched – not nearly as done as I like to be – while also trying to write a script for another project – I am so fucked on that one – and at the same time trying to write a couple of decent blog posts here that aren’t just lame ass pathetic embeds of somebody else’s cool videos cuz I’m too damned lazy to finish my own shit – guilty as charged – and on top of all that I had to throw together a quick collection of shows I’ve worked on for a possible show runner gig that – knowing my luck – will never see the light of day but I’m keeping my fingers crossed cuz I could use a paying gig right about now.

Okay?

Happy now?

No?

Okay – relax – sit back – get yerself some popcorn – and watch a very young Robert Vaughn in Roger Corman‘s 1958 classic Teenage Caveman.

Thanks, Toni!

I just blew off the rest of my afternoon.

Cheers.
