I made a bunny movie with a song.
And people liked it.
So I thought, "Why not do a bunny movie sing along?"
And then I did. It was hard. But I did.
There are not to many moments in a day when I'm like
oh my gosh I've got to do that. That would be weird and
funny. Least the entire time I was making it I was
laughing to myself while trying to get the syncing right.
It was a real real tough job. And even then I wish I had
made the text black. I could make a better version some
other time but for now I'm glad I have something like this
to put up.
===== letter to Philosophy Prof ========================
I'm a bit embarrassed that I wrote 'right' instead of
writing in that first line.
Yeah, Script. Lately, I've been getting rev ed up to
do some sort of philosophy movie or philosophy movie
mini series. I thought that putting philosophy into
a different and more visually expressible medium might
give more people a chance to get involved with the issues.
I see that much of that which is written is a bit difficult
to get at so I thought there had to be a better way to
expose people for the first time.
Hence, I'm putting together ideas for a couple of short
philosophy movies.
I rem. telling you I make movies Powell. I waited on
making them because I didn't have the proper equipment
but now I do so having an interview in low light won't
smash the quality like it would before.
Surely, you don't think I'd write a paper like the last
one for no reason? If I really believe what I say I'd
best back it up with action and If I really believe more
people should think I'd best get to work making that happen.
Oh, and I want to do Quote Number 2
in which I perceive the real issue to be
What is 'doing' philosophy? Or what is one
doing when when does philosophy?
Or what is the work of a philosopher?
I can't put it into words right but I think that
is what needs to be addressed and that the sentences
in the quote stem from it.
Am I on the right track?
Hopefully, I'll hear back from you soon.

========================================================
Lately, I've been more active creating movies
I'm trying to find my style. And it's tough.
But just maybe I'll hit that note that makes
people resonate with my material. If not...
I'm pretty much economically doomed.
Wish me luck.(quote from

It was one of those times. It's just good. It's the right time of
day and the right kind of breeze and the right kind of company.
And it just feels great to be alive and with someone whom you
care about.
Like the 2 hours is a gift. But I was glad I could be of such a
help to her. She was a bit distraught when I first saw her.
She really needed a hug. And by the end her mood had improved
so much... she told me so. And I realized that's really a big
reason for why I'm here.
A part of the answer to the meaning of my own little life.
The sort of satisfaction I get from getting to make peole feel better.
I realize it's a big part of what makes me feel good about myself.
Like I made some difference in someones life.
Besides, I think today is a small mile stone.
It turns out we both ahd noxious summers at the same time.
She worked in a store on the plaza and I was in a house not
to far from it for a few of those begining weeks.
We're both creative and weird.
We're both some what self taught.
We're both wearing similary lenght shirts. .... that's a weird one.
It's interesting. Really is.
I think were both people whom hang around a place. She mentioned
the term homebody's but I think she also said her home was much
more out and about than my concept.
She's highly adventurous.

And the day just got a tad bit better. When I walked out
to find Amber walking home. Whoa. And it was fun to chat
again.
It's nice to have that surprise. And it made finding out the
Deli was closed a bit easyier to take.
