Ghislaine Maxwell: Some thoughts.

 Yes, there's no debate that Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster.




But did you know that she was my patron during my brief artistic career?


It's true!






However my good fortune didn't last long.



Let this be a lesson to you youngsters.  Be careful of which horse you choose to hitch your wagon.




But my next project is a remake of a film classic.  Fortune favors the bold!

The Book of Boba Fett: Some Thoughts.

Image
If you asked me at the age of seven why I thought the taciturn bounty hunter Boba Fett was so cool, I probably couldn't come up with more than, "He's got a rocket pack!  And a flame thrower!   And his helmet doesn't look like Darth Vader or an off the assembly line stormtrooper's!"  He only had a few brief appearances in The Empire Strikes Back , but I had high hopes for the character. In Return of the Jedi , he exhibited more of his strong but silent character.  But at last during the rescue of Han Solo, we got to see him actually use his jetpack!  I remember the audience oohing and aahing at the spectacle.  We got to see him use his whipcord!  We got to see him actually look-- Aaaaaand then we were let down by his embarrasing "death" at the hands of a blind Han Solo.  Solo whacks Boba Fett's jetpack at a sensitive point, send him flailing into the air, smashing against Jabba the Hutt's sail barge, and tumbling into the maw of a creature cal...

My First Rock Concert.

Image
I believe that thirty four years ago today, I became a full fledged teenager when I went to my first rock concert. When I was a wee boy, I would see teenagers with shaggy hair parade around in school and on the street with T-shirts that were artifacts of live shows of bands they had seen:  Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Styx, Journey, Def Leppard, KISS, Rush, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Twisted Sister, and so forth. In my first year at middle school, I saw a girl who wore a denim vest displaying the Union Jack on the back with the words "THE WHO" printed along the St. George's Cross segment of the flag. I was curious about these wild shows they had gone to see.  It seemed out of my league.  Would a wimpy kid like myself ever have the experience of seeing a rock band play live?  Would I ever partake in this rite of passage into teenhood? At the age of 12, I found a UHF music video channel called U68.  I had discovered a band that took me by storm. Image Credit:  rog...

How and why am I able to dodge the Covid bullet?

Image
  As you can see for the umpteenth time, I registered negative for Covid. I live in a sparsely populated area in Yonkers.   When Covid hit New York, guns blazing, I immediately ensconced myself in my apartment.   I counted my “blessings”… I work from home.   There’s no need for me to go in a densely populated area like the city. As I said above, I work in the middle of nowhere.   Odds are I won’t bump into someone who might be carrying the bug. I learned basic hygiene as far back as nursery school.   I probably learned it even earlier since mom bordered on germophobia in the presence of a newborn babe. Sure and I stocked up on masks and hand cleaner sprays, courtesy of New York State. We had a decent amount of toilet paper, so we wouldn’t wind up wiping our asses with issues of the New York Post. As an aside, what was the BIG DEAL about stockpiling on toilet paper?   There was an airborne virus that attacked the lungs, and we were obsessed with not hav...
