well don't pay me no mind...I enjoy the Hollywood dreck that gets VK in such a foam, and I love the foreign/indy films too.

but too much of the latter makes me depressed or insane...

i'm tired

it's nice not to have to think, just sit sipping and let Ron tell us a story with a happy ending...and then to sleep; perchance to dream.

we all know the story of our lives...we all see dead people...people who, like a Hollywood formula film, are just going through the motions of living...headed for that inevitable, predictable, "happy ending" {...a good husband and father...a dependable employee...solid citizen...never strayed from the straight and narrow, nor took the chance at chasing the white rabbit down the hole...never thought to step through the looking glass...died without ever having lived...Amen.}

after seeing Easy Rider I didn't sleep for weeks

then again I watched "Henry V", crying my eyes out at the beauty of the writing...Kenny B. God bless you, you are brilliant as Harry.

we few, we happy few...

oh yes, I see dead people

doesn't everyone?

so once again into the breach...

wearing the leek proudly on St. Crispian's Day.

i can't watch too much of the good stuff...

who's for invading France?...those bastards! catch me after a film like that and I'm up for anything...anything

holding on to my Hollywood sanity is a life's work enough.
