What Do A New Animated Movie, An Autobiography That Nobody is Ever Going to Read, and a Television Script All Have in Common?
Yeah, it's true...they're all things I'm working on and unlikely to finish in the next year. Oh...I should put "a patio" on that list, but that's just about finished believe it or not (thanks to much help from David and Tara). I won't post pictures again until it's done.
Anyway. The next animated Alfred, Unibrow, and the Big Headed Boy movie...that'll be the 5th one and I'm still not getting paid. How long did it take the Simpsons to catch on before they took it off the Tracy Ulman Show and made it it's own? I actually have two great ideas for the next movie... "A Bfuch N Krappy Musical" OR "A Bfuch N Krappy Roast of the Big Headed Boy". Which one do you think would be better? Consider that I'll use the same cast...and if it's a musical...they'll all be singing...so I'd have to write songs...and someone would have to help me with music (I'm looking at Hope and Justin). Post your opinion in comments.
The autobiography...I decided to write down my life for nobody else to ever read. It's for me. I like to tell stories, and I'd hate to forget all my stories should I develop dementia somewhere around my 67th birthday. I got the idea when I was reading "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell" by Tucker Max...not that my stories are half as interesting (or inappropriate), but they're mine. I'm not finished reading yet because I read SLOW, SLOW, SLOW...but soon I'll be done.
The television script is actually the 3rd idea I've had and started writing....it has a title...it's called "Other People's Money". It started as a book...and then it was a script...and then it was a TV series...and now it's kind of a book because I'm too cheap to buy the script writing software.
All I need to do now is find time to work on all this, but first I need to finish that patio. Did I mention it's almost done?

A script - and I haven't read it yet? That's just plain wrong!
There's not nearly enough going on at this web site - only two forums, a weekly cartoon and a bunch of archives. Hardly enough to fill my leisure time. Weekly book installments would help fix that. (Well, they couldn't hurt.) And think of the incisive and considerate feedback you'll get. This would put you firmly in the Dickens tradition.
I thought about publishing the book a little at time...replacing the I've Been Watching feature with I've Been Writing. That's a bit more difficult to update on a weekly basis.
Well of course your autobiography isn't finished, you're still a young pup.
I've been following the epic story of the patio for sometime now. Please post pictures when it's finished.
I need coffee.
Ha! Well, I suppose that's true that my autobiography can't be finished or I wouldn't be able to write it myself, would I? Maybe I should call this Volume 1.
