Here’s What I Think…

Okay, I just touched down in LA after a few days in Mexico. Just as I arrived, the swine flu scare exploded, and the streets of the Zona Rosa, my home away from home, were deserted. Although I was able to see friends and still have a good time, the eerily quiet city was a bit disconcerting this go around. And after flying home an earthquake hit the city. Wow. Let’s hope this beautiful, cosmopolitan criminally underrated city gets a break!

Just saw a Mexican sci fi drama called SLEEP DEALER at the Laemmle Sunset 5. Great cast, interesting story, with a futuristic theme that incorporates the global economy, the future of immigration, our need to publish our thoughts on the internet, all wrapped up in a very touching story about redemption. Very cool. Go see it.

2008 post-Writers’ Strike got away from me, and in between traveling to Washington DC for the Democratic National Convention, writing a pilot for Nickelodeon and a graphic novel to be published later this year, and most significantly, the passing of my beloved stepfather, I stopped blogging. Well, now, as spring of 2009 is in bloom, I’m going to try again, and this time keep some consistency. Let’s see how long THAT lasts!
