first time you tuber

Here it is, a movie I made with my good friend Perry, finally up on you tube after a few days of trying to get that damn site to work (first time upload for me). Anyways, enjoy and I hope the quality is ok, I had to cut it way down to size.

The King Returns

Its been a long time since I've posted and a lot has happen in the 10 months or so that have passed. Its hard to talk about things in such general terms but my life has seen a major improvement since the last time I wrote. I am a happier then I have been in a long time and I feel like life has some balance. Things aren't perfect but I cannot complain. Anyways time to make dinner I will be updating more lately, no one is reading but its still nice to write. Till next time...

Back in business

Not really, I just like saying that. Although on the sales floor I'm kicking ass and taking names, (also just like saying that) but I am doing well. But it really doesn't matter cuz Im not planning on having a future in sales, although being a ad sales exec could be pretty bad ass, but I don't really think thats where I'm going to end up. I need to do something big, something huge with my life. Yeah but envitiablly I'll probably just end up sitting behind a computer, writing about all the could have beens in my life. Not sitting in a massive caslte, alienated from the world, with a wife who puts together puzzles but really just wants to go dancing in new york night clubs... Anyone get the reference, anyone? Back to my musings, hopefully they get me somewhere someday.

I can't get no....

resolution. Oh I promised myself I wouldn't be boring or morose on this blog but damn it if my life doesn't just throw me into such circumstances. I just don' know what to do with myself, that is an honest statement, too much so I am sure. Women don't motivate me in the same way as before, I still pine after them for sure, but I lack the initiative to go that extra yard. I feel like I need to just wait until something falls into my lap, not be bogged down my preconcieved notions or ideas. Preconcieved notions are my worst enemy. If I could eliminate one mental creation that exists within the human mind, it would be preconcieved notions. They are destined to ruin my life.
So now I drift on off to sleep,
Where kind hearts I will meet,
The daily drudge of life be done,
So I can sleep in the eternal sun.

Procrastination

Things that keep me interested in life: Woody Allen movies...... nothing much else to add to this list. Oh, that and the LaMotta commentary track on Raging Bull. Those two things keep me interested for now. Yeah I know, its all so enlightening.

Woody Allen

I just finished watching Woody Allen's Crimes and Misdemeanors. What a great film, simply astonishing. With every new Woody Allen movie I see, it is like a new side of my life is revealed to me. There is this one scene, where a jewish family discusses God and morality and that one scene was worth watching the movie. That and the look in Woody Allen's eyes when he sees the women he loves is merrying the one man he absolutly detests. Such movie magic is unimaginable to me.

I've seen only 8 of Woody Allen's movies and I can't choose which one is my absolute favorite, without feeling like I'm betraying another one. There are three that don't fall into this catagory, but the other 5 are just so good, I can't choose between them. Here are the top 5, in the order that I am currently feeling.
1.Crime and Misdemeanor's
2.Hannah and Her Sisters
3.Match Point
4.Annie Hall
5.Broadway Danny Rose

Well maybe Broadway Danny Rose can never beat the top 4 but its a solid number 5. Or more like a solid #2 to a 4 a way tie at number 1. I've gotta get out there and watch more Woody Allen Movies, I feel like I'm missing out on 100's of other great stories and conversations. There is one aspect of all his movies that always irritates me. There is always a scene of him sitting in some old movie theater watching a classic film, and it just sucks that those types of places are so hard to find, there should be an old style movie theater on every city corner. I'm done for now, if you have yet to discover any of these movies, stop wasting your time and watch them.

A Belly Dancer, a Mongolian Waitress, drunk rich people and a lot of hostages

Hey all, so the title pretty much highlights, the highlights (oh yeah) of my last 2 evenings. So I just got this job working security at the Starlight Room, a swanky club/bar in downtown SF. I had my first two days this weekend and I saw some pretty interesting things, met some interesting people and pretty much just stood in one place for 8 hours of my life. But, that’s not where most of the excitement comes from.

The Belly dancer and Mongolian Waitress came before I even started work. That was great, we got to see a great belly dancer, who I could perhaps talk to again, and I met the waitress at the same place. Anyways, that was interesting, first time a waitress instigated a conversation like she did, I guess it’s a cultural thing. Anyways, this girl was born and raised in Mongolia, and just moved here 2 years ago, she went to a school where she learned English so she’s pretty fluent. Quite fascinating, she is the first authentic Mongolian I've met, it was pretty awesome.

Anyways, yeah at work, it’s all drunk rich people, who just think they are above the law. Also quite hilarious, you tell them to do something and they look at you blankly then just go about what they are doing. It takes like 2 or 3 times to get through to these people. And the hostage’s thing...that comes from seeing the Inside Man, which was very good. I won't talk about it now, because it is late and this blog has gone on long enough and I'm going to bed. Night all.
