Farkle

Why won't some of these people play along on Farkle? I'm kind of lonely and just want to chat...no not desperate, but just respond to my chats. Is that asking too much? Or am I just a lonely soul on Farkle?

New Film Shooting In April

We are still trying to get "Joy" out into the mainstream. We've had a few distribution offers, but we do not know what we are going to do with it. This little film has so much of South Western Ohio involved. Mostly Jungle Jim's. Oh, and there are some scenes from "Findlay Market."

And one of the best parts we put into the film is the local Cincy Indy Music. Some of the best local music is involved, "Wussy", "The Hiders", "Lovely Crash" and, perhaps one of the best ever is "Kim Taylor."

This little film turned out to be a gold mine after all of the editing was finished and I hope we can promote these awesome artists!

So, come on...it will ROCK!!!

I Think Facebook Has Taken Over My Life

Had a meeting with Julie, Joe and Doug tonight and we were discussing blogging, tweetting and general bullshit trying to push "Joy" the movie we made at "Jungle Jim's" in Fairfield, Ohio a while back. And, I kind of forgot about this little thingy,

Then I remembered how I got on a rant about Todd Santos and his hideous eyebrows...and how I had several strange, yet very funny responses. It's just too bad that Todd hasn't been on msnbc for (drum roll) exactly a year since msnbc decided to use the weather channel. (Think I may be digressing, but that's okay.)

So now, we need to come up with some unique, weird crap to push this awesome movie now that there are distribution deals in the works...any ideas? I'm clueless at the moment...but my thinking cap is turned on turbo!

So in the spirit of Lizzie, we need to find a way to marry indie films with indie music. We did a pretty good job with "Joy." Most of the music on the soundtrack is from Cincinnati...Wussy, The Hiders, Lovely Crash and Kim Taylor. This is a lot of music that folks from Rolling Stone, Spin, woxy, npr, kexp, Robert Christgau and others are going gaga over...and I don't mean Lady Gaga because she is just a freak!

Seriously, what is up with that Lady Gaga shit? Do people really like that? As far as I'm concerned, I was hoping she would catch on fire during that lame-ass awards show, or SNL, or wherever I saw that travesty!

People, wake up and find some real freakin' music; you shouldn't be spoon fed this crap that the masses eat up (well, except for Madonna, right Candice?)

Just saying...

Chad Ochocinco

Granted, Chad, formally known as Johnson, drove me crazy with his antics last year. I hoped they would get rid of his useless ass, but he seems to have gotten back to the old Chad.

How awesome were those kicks last night? I'm almost excited to be a Cincinnati Bengals fan!

Ever Notice "Cash Cab" Theme Song

is a total ripoff of The Dandy Warhols, "Bohemian Like You"? Or, I suppose it could be an edited version of the song. Whatever, I hope the Dandys get royalties.

Wow, What A day!

First thing this morning I read that woxy.com is moving to Austin. My initial reaction is hurt, depression, betrayal...but hey, it's not like they are leaving the airwaves, as has happened too many times in the past.

I'll miss that little link to Cincy that brings the cool to the music. But hey, you're going to Austin! How awesome is that? Just don't forget us homies.

Shiv, Mike, Bryan & Joe will do well in Austin and I hope to see you at SXSW next year!

On another note--Western Bowl has been saved!

I'm A Loser!

So much has happened since my last post two months ago. Kind of forgot about this stupid little thing since Facebook overtook my life.

I have a new granddaughter...Quinn Haley. She looks just like Lilly! Beautiful!

I managed to catch Todd Santos on the Early Show while in Phoenix last week!

Addicted to the Food Network, even though I don't cook. Love that shit, except for "Unwrapped." Personally, I think that show blows chunks; big ol' chunks!

Perhaps I lied, not that much has happened?

Wow, I can still post!

So, Julie Is Coming Back To Town...Next Week...

This was unexpected, but if I can help with your shoot, I'm there.

My job is not going so well...he's cut me down to three days a week. I hope he doesn't go out of business yet because Karen and I are trying to make a difference and conform to the small vehicles.

Julie, I'd be happy to help you next week in any stupid way I can...gopher? I can do that!

WKRP 2009 Rocked Cincy!

What a great time! I haven't had that much fun in a year.

We had 350-400 scoots, awsome food, beer, entertainment by one of the funnest bands I've ever seen, "The Fuck Knights",

Wednesday, April 01, 2009

It's Official...maybe

I think the "Slap Chop" guy could beat the "Sham Wow" guy in a bout...Did you see the mug shots when the hooker bit his tongue and he went nuts?

However, the most obnoxious pitch man, ever, is Billy Mays...Shut the fuck up and quit waking me up in the middle of the night with your loud, freakin, stupid pitch!!!

Smeriously...SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!

Fun Weekend Coming Up!

It's time for the XYL scooter rally...this is my fourth one and can't wait!

Ya know one of my favorite moments is sitting at the Comet and someone plays The Hiders on the jukebox and Beth sings to us...ROCK ON Delia P. Hider!

This is going to be an awesome weekend! I don't think I can generate enough rest before-hand. I'll be dog-assed tired Monday! I will survive.

Fun Night!

Started at The Comet and scored some tomato curry salsa...took it to the cookout at Metro Scooter and had a great time.

Shit, there are so many new scooter people out there after the gas prices soared last summer. I felt like a newbie because I knew so few people. This is great for our little community...I hope all of you kids become passionate like the rest of us!

Beth, thanks, good seeing you again. Good luck with your move.

Happiness Bleeds by Wussy

Previously, I stated that The Dandy Warhols, "Bohemian Like You" was the greatest pop song of all time. Then I recanted and said Wussy "Rigor Mortis" replaced it.

Fast forward to now...Wussy's new CD sounds very promising! Especially, "Happiness Bleeds." I am crowning that as the GREATEST tune ever...for now.

We'll see soon. I haven't been privileged enough to get an advance copy, but they have three of their new tunes on MySpace:

.

I can't wait for the CD release show at Northside Tavern this Friday, March 13, 2009!

Mom, I wish I could have shared this stuff with you. You were the one whom always listened to lyrics, and I was the one whom always listened to the tunes. Wussy would seriously satisfy both of us! Freakin' brilliant!

Miss you MOM!!!

Depeche Mode In Atlantic City!

It seems my family may be making a trip to Atlantic City, August 1st, to see Depeche Mode! How awesome is that?

At one time, I swore I never wanted to see them again after Nick burned me out...their new song and video is awesome, although quite creepy and very intriging.

I CAN'T WAIT!

No More Drumk Texting, Emails, or Whatever!

Right!!! Probably not going to happen. I just need to quit making an ass out of myself??? Not possible.

Once in awhile, I get a good tidbit, even though it may be hard to remember...whatever???

I hope a future boss is not reading this stuff! Love you kids, Leslie, Beth...SORRY!

I Knew My Tap Water Tastes Just Fine!!!

It's been confirmed...Hamilton Ohio's water tastes better than anywhere in the freakin' country!!!

I've always wondered why people spend so much on bottled water when I know mine is just fine. Here's the link confirming this:

Hamilton Wins Acadamy Award of Water

I think I'll go get a big-ass glass right now!

Finally, Almost Out Of This Funk

I made my stupid car drive to Northside and hoped I didn't have a flat tire or anything.

It was worth it. I saw a few people I haven't seen in months (except for Pete).

Yea I know you don't care what I did or saw...but the experience helped lift my heart, for now!!!

My Car Is Close To 100,000 Miles

Just looking for the perfect song for that moment.

I think I've made my mind up it has to be "The Hiders-Can't Hurt Me Anymore." I believe that is my favorite song of all time. It was the first one I listened to on my new iPod.

I'm sure I've told the story before about how I searched and searched for that song after hearing it on woxy.com. And, it turns out "The Hiders" are from freakin' Cincy. I just happened to be sitting next to Beth, aka, "Delia P. Hider" at "The Comet" when I discovered this!

Holy shit! The second song will have to be from "Wussy"...perhaps "Shunt" or "Rigor Mortis" or "Yellow Cotton Dress" or "Skip."

It is so great to have such talent in this stupid little place!

Cabin Fever

We've received tons of snow and ice over the last two days. I'm snowed in and can't get my car out of the driveway. Tomorrow is not going to be above freezing.

It's a good thing my boss is letting me work at home (very surprised by that). But, I am getting tons of work done. Plus, my brother picked up beer and cigs for me...thank you Paul!

I'm not sure I will be able to make that class reunion planning meeting tomorrow night...

I miss my scooter! Come on warm weather, let's go!

Go Away Snow!!!

As an independent contractor, I need to get to my work place. I don't think they will let me work at home, which really sucks, because I could!
