Responsibly Wild Blog

If you've checked your mail in the last week, and are invite worthy, you know first hand whats up . That's right people, just as the song says, there ain't no stopping us now. Marieta & I have launched our wedding website. Could this be more of a 21st century love? I wish it was the 22nd century and I could send you all R2 units with 3D hologram projections letting you know about our upcoming nuptuals, but I guess "save the date" cards & a website will have to do. So what's the story with the site? Well there is a lot of info up there. Particularly useful for those flying or driving in for the shindig. MY FAVORITE PART is the Our Videos page of course. It's pretty bare at this point but I take complete responsibility for that. We shot something special for save the date but I wasn't pleased with the final product. I guess it will be doomed to the DVD goodies. Not that cool to have the big launch & not finish up the site but we'll be po...

One of my favorite past times is following the movie news. I'm not talking about gossip or box office garbage (even though that can occasionally be interesting). I'm talking about script purchases, director news releases, and juicy tidbits like this little gem. Sean Connery wants to play a Bond villian . Excuse me, but is that not the greatest idea you have ever heard? Its common knowledge that Sean Connery is the most beloved Bond of all time. Could you imagine how amazing a 007 flick would be where a former Bond pays the villian! I am getting giddy about it already and its only a talked about prospect. I hope someone powerful in "the industry" reads this and sees all the dollar signs because wow, I would see that flick like for or five times.

I feel like writing a movie called The Payout. It could be about a guy who has a lot of gambling debt and cant make any bets around town. He somehow makes a bet through a little known bookie and wins a boatload of cash. So he's collecting his money and starts thinking about splitting town because he thinks no one knows about his score; but of course, he's wrong and all little past gambling demons come back to haunt him as he's fixing to jet... Yeah... I actually just came up with that. The real reason for this post is to let you know I am getting just over 7.5k from insurance for my stolen car. (Is it lame to reduce money to single digits if its not in the millions or billions?) So this is turning out to be okay. I was hoping for a payout of around there. Now I just have to spread it around wisely. Invest in myself, my future... you know what that means ... Also, I saw this piece on current about an application on facebook called "Carpool." Basically its a way f...

Okay, so it may be 12 hours late but here it is. I had a lot on my plate yesterday afternoon; a nap, make dinner, edit this down from all the raw... Sorry, but a post at 4am will have to do. Enjoy. Also: Here's the goods from March 19th; i.e. the 5 year anniversary of the Iraq invasion. I could have posted this on Thursday but I got lazy and quasi-busy. I hope you're all having a fantabulous Week. I am. Hopefully today AAA will show me the $$. Time to get to work!

Starting April 1st @ 12:01 I will embark on a scriptwriting challenge to write 100 pages of scripted material in 30 days. ScriptFrenzy.org . I don't want to tell you to much about my idea other than it's a road trip movie with three friends. I would put it in the vein of Little Miss Sunshine for 20 somethings being the main characters. Yeah. I don't know about that though. I'm tired of things being compared to Little Miss Sunshine. All right. Well I have some other goodies to show you later this afternoon; how I spent my easter Sunday and the insurance payout quote from AAA. BUT ALL THAT MUST WAIT! I shift is about to end and I will soon dash home and take my nap. Waking up at 3am can be a killer.

So I'm watching the tournament the past couple of days and I realized that I don't have a horse in this race. Yes I want Kansas to represent the big 12, and I would love Drake to go deep (too late for that); however, I really don't care. After some confusion about this whole ordeal I have figured it out. Earlier this week I was watching Pardon the Interruption and Michael Wilbon made a very true comment. There aren't any GREAT teams this year. I don't care about UCLA, Kansas, Memphis, or UNC. They don't seem that good. I think last years Florida would destroy them all. For the past few years there have been some amazing teams; Florida repeats, UNC and Illinois were insanely good in 2005, UCONN was a powerhouse for years... Great teams. Now am I bothered by the fact no team stands out this year? Eh... a little bit. The same goes for NCAA football? Who was amazing this year? No one. The upsets were amazing, but maybe they shouldn't be considered upsets if sup...

Why type it out when you can just show it! Okay that was damn short. But I was the man on the street. KPIX ran on over an hour of my footage. Some of it hit the air but since it was kind of poor quality most of it was just left on the web. It's missing some of my favorite parts (people burning money and being slammed face first into the concrete.) Anyway, Click here to see what KPIX did post. A few hours before this I used my break to shoot some video of my own. The quality is much better. To check that out, you'll just have to wait till I edit it!
