Everything in a room can be broken.

Jan 22, 2003 02:20

For over two hours I sat on the wall on the top floor of a five story parking garage, watching vehicles file in and occasionally file out. The runways revolved, from where I sat, in a two-lane spiral down to the bustling January afternoon sidewalks below, sucking up machinery and people and occasionally spitting them back out. It wasn’t quite four ( Read more... )

1997 proved a peak year for actor Samuel L. Jackson. "You're Still Not Fooling Anyone", "187", and "Eve's Bayou" were all great films, but his role as Ordell Robbi in Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown" got him the prestigious Silver Berlin Bear. In his speech he had a lot of people to thank. One name on the other hand, rose above all others, for he couldn't even say it. With a tear rolling down his eye, he merely spelled out, "Y-O-R-B-A ( ... )

Holy fucking shit. That's one funny fucking joke. Louis Yorba I mean. Let me clue you in on something, LY. People who matter, and I mean real movers and shakers, generally don't toss themselves at the feet of some random commoner with a boring journal and a request for "internet friends." How about you let someone else use the library computer, scrap together a few quarters, and take the 26 line back to the bad side of town.

If you're good I might come down later and let you shine up my wingtips.

Acclaimed actor and recently turned director John C. Reilly was on the set of Martin Scorcese's Gangs of New York when we had a long, in-depth conversation disussing enemies of my employer. "Carly," he says, "Louis Yorba has got quite the reputation. There will be jerkoffs out there that will try to ruin him. I know of one in particular who goes by the name of John Sheen.

It’s mid-morning. Too early for a boy with a hat. He isn’t too very sure how things should happen even though he’s done sketches of the storyboard over and over again and in each likely case somebody always ended up cut entirely in half at the waist and discarded in the open field with all those power lines. The one by the train station, where he met that girl from up north who had the green ribbons in her hair ( ... )

Well, I'm sure that leaves a lot of ground to cover. Should we start with elementary math or grammar? I'd like to work our way up to etiquette by Thursday in case Yorba needs to take you out to a "big function" (a.k.a drinking Schmitt Ice) this weekend featuring lots of "A-list stars" (who smell of urine and ride bicycles) out in "Hollywood" (the tent city in the woods of Highway 50 behind the Smirnoff Ice billboard).

Please list your job credentials and school studies, if you will, as I am currently working through a pile of possible slender girls to take to the dance this semester to really wow the chaperones and fellow fucking disparaging classmates. It's going to be an extremely important night for both myself and whomeever I choose to have by my side, and I will not be making the same mistake Mr. Sheen made last year.

Bringing Yoko Ono to anyone's party is so beyond not cool.

Take care. And get back with me soon. I'll be awake and dreaming.

hmm...i'd say that the best thing you got out of that was going to juliard and getting to thouroughly study 'romeo & juliet.' i wish i had the same opportunities as you.

otherwise, it's cool that good things come out of your petty troubles.

...that is, if you didn't make that one up.

i've never tried cheese fries. have you?

awakeanddreaming,

You mentioned fries before. I let it go, figuring you were poking fun at the "poor man's double baked potato". I don't want you mentioning any foods that are available to the public for ninety-nine cents, babe. What the ass is that all about? Singer/songwriter Beck once tried pulling that fry question on me. That is why he's touring with that no talent ass band the Flaming Lips, rather than Coldplay. I haven't paid less than 80 dollars for a meal in 7 years. Susan Sarandon was on the set of "Dead Man Walking" and we ordered Chinese and watched the dailies for the day prior. You better get your act together if you want to fly to Cape Verde with me this weekend. Cesaria Evora loves to eat with class.

If you look good enough, maybe I'll paint your picture.

LY.

if fries are associated with poor men, than count me out of the fry game. no need to mention how fries would completely destroy my girl-ish figure, contribute to my mild teenage acne, and make me look dirty because i'd be eating them with my bare hands, thus ruining my social life. disgusting.

...today i spent about a half hour parked outside of burger so that i could eat in between classes and make phone calls without distractions. but hey, don't worry, by no means was i eating a large order of fries that costed my wallet a mere dollar and fourty-nine cents. nor did i take advantage of the free water.

sinful, fries are. and they probably did nothing for my mood. but they were a fine temporary fix.

however...i still wished i was eating a more home-made version of fries. mmm.
