I feel bad I don’t have much of an inheritance to leave to my kids. I might start being really mean to them so they can at least get a good memoir or two out of me.

My Igor: A Short Story
Despite what the hype and film schools and how-to books and big-time directors may say, being an indie filmmaker sucks. You’re not an “artist,” you’re a beggar. You’re begging for time, you’re begging for money, hell, you’re even begging for food sometimes. It’s humiliating…

You’re begging for time, you’re begging for money, hell, you’re even begging for food sometimes. It’s humiliating and pathetic. There’s only one reason I still do it and that’s because of Cokely. Every filmmaker should have a guy like Cokely on their crew.

One of the great things about reading history is to be reminded how human nature rarely changes very much. Ive seen criticisms of modern people being too media addled to accept the harsh realities of the world, seeing real life events in comparison to movies or video games. 1/2

Is there a reliable place online to get information about 3I/ATLAS? Learning about big cosmic objects on their own terms is interesting, but everything I see involves alien invasion.

OK, so here’s my JJ Abrams story…
Before I started working in digital restoration one of my primary jobs in post-production support was running the in-house theater and screening rooms at work. Every now and again it would get booked for casting sessions, because it was perfectly suited for that…

Happy birthday to the composer of the theme music to the nonexistent 70s private detective TV series “Chuck Taggart, Private Eye!”
