DASH!! I just missed nightline doing PANDA MY PANDA



Hope you enjoy it. I totally posted this to the wrong blog, but it's kind of a good thing because the other storyline for Penelope and Zoe is that they are tied to a big airliner and hope to make it Spain and live in Barcelona. This blog is way off target, but I like it. They are riding through the desert in a dune buggy and Penelope just happens to be reading my Novella - Hollywood 2000.

Killing the Writers Group

I loved it for a while.
Then I took it for granted.
Telling people that I was in a writers group.

I went 4 times
Gregory
Tony
and Me

I want to live in a writers commune.
I can't drive to the West Side to go to a writers group.
The group broke up.

What is going on in Europe?


Are you guys freaking out on the exchange rate or wawa? I know, it's crazy. Here's something else that could be construed as crazy.

All my love from across the ocean. Wish I could be there to start the new electro fight club remix.

Ciao

Hello Berlin! Long time no write.


I hope things are well in your side of the world. It looks like Europe is now being hit with the tidal wave of debt that just washed over America. I hope you fare well. Take your investments of anything over 100K Euros out of a single institution and spread it to some other institutions.


Hope I can visit soon.


I'm working a lot more on Guerrillaworks.blogspot.com more than this one and I know it's stupid of me to ask you to just look at that blog when you've got a whole blog dedicated to you right here. How about some funny fun pictures.


Email me some current photos and I'll through them in the mix.


Peace and Love from California.
