I was thinking about that expression the other day. “Throwing someone under the bus”. Where did it come from? Was there a situation where some people were on a bus and it became necessary for the rest of the people to live to throw one person under the bus? What would [...]

Kissing In Precipitation
You know, everybody talks about how kissing in the rain is so romantic. Or when it’s snowing. Nobody ever talks about kissing when it’s hailing.
That’s because it’s not.
Song du Jour: If I Could Say Goodbye
Here is week 5 of Song du Jour. It’s called “If I Could Say Goodbye”. Not much to say about it, but I’ve had this progression for a little while and a suggestion of a melody so this morning I put some words with it. Enjoy! Or not. As always! [...]
Fore!
As unlikely as I thought it would ever be, I’ve taken up golf here in LA. But only in the smallest of ways. Every week, a bunch of us get together and play at the little 9 hole par 3 course. It’s easy. And everyone’s bad so there’s no way to [...]
The Clown Room
An item of interest in our little ‘hood… Jumbo’s Clown Room. What is it? Apparently, it’s some sort of bikini bar ala Deno’s Party Room in New York. But I’m fascinated by it and have to go one of these days because… is it clown themed? I think that’s amazing if [...]
The Usual
One of my low-level fantasies is having some place that I can go into and some cute waitress with Maxwell House eyes* will say, “The Usual, Nate?” And I’ll say yes.
I could also be like some guy named Mac. That’s fine too.
The other part of it is I want [...]
Ro-Co Research
Still need to write out my resolutions but one of them is to finish a screenplay. So I’ve picked my genre, which was easy. Romantic comedy or as I like to call them “ro-co’s”. I prefer this term to “rom-com” which I feel has a decidedly internet-y sound to it. Ro-co [...]
Song du Jour: One In A Million
Here is week 2 of 2010’s Song du Jour…. It’s called “One In A Million”.
One In A Million
She’s one in a million
Chances only say when somebody finds you
Well, somebody tried to
Chances only say what
Some other line from
One of the guys on
It’s one in a million
Heaven only says what you need to
Survive in
Maybe [...]
Kentucky Fried Chicken Palace
On one of the streets I drive on every day is a Kentucky Fried Chicken. But it is unlike every other KFC I’ve ever seen. Check it!
What I want to know is was this conceived this way or was it originally something else(more probable). And then some enterprising KFC franchise [...]
It’s A Wonderful Movie
A couple of years ago, me and my friend Siobhan had an argument about the subject of holiday movies. Which was the best one? My mom had raised me loving Miracle on 34th St.(the original one thank you very much! with a very young and spunky Natalie Woods) And Siobhan loved [...]
