I need some sort of cash prize for this: my dad asked me to guess how many people have died on Mt. Everest, and I thought about how many whimsical lunatics have even had enough time and money to die that way, guessed 340, and that wound up being the actual answer.

I have seen Grosse Pointe Blank one thousand times because it’s the best movie ever made. RIP to a real one. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Gonna post cringe for just a second here. Not on a self-pity kick, just out of ideas and pride: I have some irons in the fire and some contract stuff, but I need a full time job in LA. Whatever I've been doing isn't working and I need help. If you have any ideas, please DM or email me (in bio).

This work is important, and I don't just say that because my interest in media preservation also had a lot to do with looking for a watchable rip of Chris Elliott's FDR: A One-Man Show. Any secrets that are still left are hiding on old tapes.

Still think this would have been a slam dunk to turn into a direct-to-streaming based on a true story flick. It would be sort of funny and threaten to have a thesis about mob mentality in America. Somehow Etan Cohen would end up writing it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_Bo...

Just found something good on the internet for the first time in like six years: Merle Haggard sitting in for an entire Art Bell episode in 1997. The whole five hours. It’s not even about music. Dude was ready to cohost that thing. archive.org/details/1997...

A recurring problem in my childhood was having to take field trips to dams (virtuous) while also having a computer (sinful). Wanted to flee to the forest whenever the tour guide mentioned the glory hole. www.latimes.com/california/s...
