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...

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!!!

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!

Proud To Be An American
It's been a long time since I've said that...at least eight years? Good luck Barack; we are counting on you. I know it's not going to be easy, but I think you are the guy to do it!
Personally, I supported Hillary, but I think you are the right person to get us out of the mess. You, sir, truly rock!

So Long Asshat!
It will be a great day tomorrow, fuckin' W will be gone. I'll miss the idiot and I hope Obama doesn't turn out to be another one of those politicians. Barack, I hope you are sincere and not pulling our hats over our eyes.
One last laugh:
Yes, sir, you have been the biggest disgrace to our country. EVER!!!

Wussy - Rigor Mortis
I declare this to be the best song ever!!! Even better than Dandy Warhols - "Bohemian Like You."
Lisa, it would be so awesome if you came back to Cincinnati...I love you kids! Remember, Chicago is way windier and colder than here!

Not Sure What I Want To Say
My car is fucked up and need to get it fixed; think it's a strut mount or something...
I'm back at my old job where I was fired two years ago. Isn't it funny how things turn around? I'm getting them back into the web space, but it is a far cry from when I left. It's amazing we have any sales with this messed up economy...I guess there are some folks still out there with money to spend?
I think we may survive!!!I am hopeful!
Geesh, I SO don't hope we go into a full-blown-out depression...I really don't want to live on SPAM!

I'm Sorry Mom
Yeah, a little fucked up, but you would like that.
Lilly had such a great Christmas, what a great kid...she was so patient as we played the white elephant game. Mom, you would so love this little girl, she's the best ever! And now we have another little kid coming soon...can't wait. Oh, on top of that, I think Candice and Jim are close. I wish you could meet these little awesome people!!!
I'm pretty sure they love, as I do!!!
I love and miss you so much!
