From The Concrete Jungle

1) For those of you who aren’t aware, a couple friends and I are trying to become  screenwriters. It’s been a little less than a year since we started to craft banter into true and ardent stories. Despite the fact that we have lacked focus in our writing, we have still come up with fresh and ingenious ways of constructing a story. Hopefully, with time, these stories can become realities; well, realities in our stories?  Uhh … yeah.

2) I also plan to put some of my ideas on this blog. Initially, I wanted to make this into a photo blog/journal thing, but I can’t find my usb cable to hook up the ol’ camera to the computer, so it will likely be a heterogeneous mix of junk.

3) I recently been watching episodes of the Dean Martin Variety show. I pretty love the concept of the show. It’s just Dean Martin drinking, singing, and cracking jokes on camera. I recently discussed the show with a roomate of mine, only to find out that Dean Martin didn’t really drink; he was just the most convincing swanky drinker out there. Crazy huh!?!? I also appreciate the fact that there were some pretty good skits on the Dean Martin Variety Show which rivaled any of the best comedic skits at the time. One of my favorites is “The Bachelor: Funny he didn’t Marry.” I will admit it’s a little slow and dry, but it was the early 70s. Enjoy!
