While I was watching The Karate Dog (I actually prefer just Karate Dog) lat night, a friend of mine asked The Ghost of Gene Siskel and me if we would take roles in a picture like TKD. Our answer? A resounding “hell yes!” Believe me, I would come to the set just happy to be [...]

Neverending Story: 2

Opening night of Talent Show 1989 went very well. Now that it’s up and running I can finally return my focus to GIK. I have some potential hits waiting on my DVR, and my mom just sent me a new batch of DVDs, and you know she always sends at least one Grieco-worthy picture in [...]

Sometimes when that hallowed orb Luna gives way to that sonofabitch the sun, I awake to the horrid sounds of the alarm clock. In my half-waking state, I imagine that I’m getting out of bed to go to work on the set of a live-action movie version of Galaga. Then, I realize that I work [...]

Hey y’all.
Please check out my book The Guardian and The Shroud: Jack Rat’s First Adventure. It’s being carried by literaryroad.com. You can also listen to me ramble on about the book at http://blog.literaryroad.com/
It’s a bold kids’ piece and it’s pretty metal. Thanks, and tomorrow I’ll return to Grieco.

Whilst in LA, I had the chance to get fully caught up on Trapped in the Closet. I had watched parts 1-7 on BET, but I had no idea that the midget (sorry, little person) would go on to shit himself and that the Southern wife of the cop who was banging Sylvester’s wife [...]

I’m back from LA, and I’ve learned a few things. First, they’re not lying about the weather out there. It truly is perfect. Second, Scientologists are really fucking scary. I know everybody jokes about it and we all think Cruise has gone off the deep end, but until you’ve stared it in the face I [...]
