[ItsAllAboutMeMan] ah, life

I don't know anything about video games or computer games or whatever the hell they call them these days other than what I read in your column.  So I guess I was kind of unprepared when I was on YouTube and I clicked on a vid that supposedly is supposedly related to my masterful music vid, "Don't Antagonize The Scary Man" and I watched a game from the perspective of the player.

The game was called Postal 2, and what it seems to do is allow you to dismember various innocent bystanders (and police) with a variety of weapons.  Fascinated and repelled, I checked out a few related vids.  The makers of the game are equal opportunity - you can kill blacks and women with the same alacrity (knowing words like that seems to keep me out of the new economy) as white people, and many of the gamers who posted their games on YouTube are firmly on the side of affirmative action, chosing blacks and women as their targets almost exclusively.

I never realized what I was missing, and consumed with jealousy towards those who have been in the know about this, and determined to keep this wonderful new secret to myself as much as possible, I flagged every vid I found as violent, repulsive, hateful or abusive tags.

Now I'm sure little or any of what I've said comes as a surprise to you; since you haven't written about it, I want to thank you for not exposing this zesty, hateful entertainment to the ridicule of the the broader world.  Let's just keep it our little secret - let hate fester in the bedrooms of the diseased little minds of the next generation - our best and brightest hope!

[ILoveIshtar] Fwd: Google Alert - I love Ishtar

I will often add a comment to stupid blog entries like this - with links to pro-ishtar sites. That way if somebody comes along with a different opinion, maybe they'll find us and enjoy the company of intelligent, fun people with good taste!

But I couldn't leave a comment on this one, as I am not on AOL. If anybody here has an AOL account, you have my encouragement to leave a comment...

Iron Man: A New Movie Rating System Is Born
By skip3366(skip3366)
I would give "Ishtar" (with Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford) a 2. I could easily give it a zero, and don't only because of the drunken camel. Ishtar is in the WORST 2% of movies ever made. 97-98% of ALL movies ever made are better ...

Re: [ILoveIshtar]

A year with only two Ishtar viewings in it would be a very rough year.... you have my sympathy, I'm sorry your wife isn't more supportive. I'm sure if you posted her e-mail address here, a lot of folks would be willing to write to her and try to convince her to watch Isthar with you on a more normal schedule...

It makes me think of a scene in a movie:

ANNIE'S PSYCHIATRIST 

Do you watch Ishtar often?

ALVY: Hardly ever. Maybe three times a week.

ANNIE: Constantly! I'd say three times a week.

I'll check out your webpage, thanks for the link!

[ItsAllAboutMeMan] TV Production in our neighborhood

I noticed (how could I not) that they are doing some filming in my neighborhood... during a weekend dog walk Anne and I stumbled across several trailers lining one street.  Signage announcing that makeup and costumes were to be found within.... it wasn't too hard to figure out something involving film was going on.

I decided to take another dog walk in that part of the neighborhood today, figuring that I might be able to get a job acting in a crowd scene or something, perhaps reprising my role of "Hippie Father (with baby)" in the smash movie sensation, Heart Like A Wheel" starring Bonnie Bedelia as Shirley "Cha Cha" Muldowney, the drag racing sensation. This promising start of a career in film was tragically cut short when the scene I was in didn't make the final cut of the movie.

I had a very nice chat with a very nice young man, who has an entry level position in the director's guild.  This means they gave him an orange reflective vest and a sign that says "stop" on one side and "slow" on the other.  In the course of our short conversation, he explained that I couldn't walk any further because they were shooting, I said I thought any project they were working on would be enhanced if I walked through the scene with my dogs... he agreed, saying I had fine dogs, but he didn't think the film people would appreciate the hassle of drawing up release documents, arranging to pay me, etc.

While I asked him questions about the production, I managed to get him into trouble twice... once when we were sitting on the curb behind a car, chatting, and they hailed him, trying to find out if he was sleeping in the bushes... and then later when a car sped right past his post as we were deep in discussion about the Canadian film industry... he took a couple of steps towards the retreating car, waving his sign ineffectually over his head... I felt awful, so I apologized and took my leave. But I like to feel like we became pretty close friends (even though my psycho dog lunged at him snarling for no reason at all right after he got the call from his superiors -- "she must have felt my fear" he said), and I learned quite a bit about the show.

The are filming a 13-part TV series called "Fear Itself."  They've been shooting in locations all over town.  The biggest star to come in for the series is Eric Roberts. I'd like to point out to Klaus that this improves my Julia Roberts Number to 3:

me - the guy with an orange vest - Eric Roberts - Julia Roberts

My previous Julia Roberts Number was 4:

me - Andras Jones - Jennifer Jason Leigh - Kevin Bacon - Julia Roberts

The information on the IMDB is kind of incomplete, they don't mention Eric Roberts part at all - the only one they do is a crack up:

Hey, Klaus, you are pretty active on IMDB, I think you should create a character page for Female Body, surely one of the most important roles in the entire horror genre...

The topics on the message board suggest that early episodes may not have been well received:

[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Do you guys know about Spock.com?

Oh my god, it should be easy to realize my dream of forming a band with guys named Matt Love, I can now contact dozens and dozens of them. 

But look at this poor sap (highlighting added):

Matt Love
Matt Love male (Ft Worth, TX, United States
Hello, I am a male who is sucessful,and very strong,but harmless female foot fetish that I dont tell any one about! I want to meet foot lovers,...
Matt Love Pictures | MySpace

When you go to his MySpace page, it only gives his first name, and it says "
This profile is set to private. This user must add you as a friend to see his/her profile."

Busted! 

I can see why some people find this nefarious....
