time - the essence
how do you fast-forward thru time to see things now that you can't until then? it doesn't give you something to look forward to though it satisfies desire in an instant. i'm sure not gonna try, but, well, sometimes I damned well want to.
philosophical bullshit aside, I'm really looking forward to seeing 'I'm Not There' (the new movie about the lives of Bob Dylan) and 'No Country for Old Men' (the new Joel and Ethan Coen movie).
finished reading The Google Story and those guys have a shit-ton going for them. fortunately, they live in a country where you can blur the lines of ethics and causality. "Don't Do Evil" is their mantra. "Evil" is whatever they say it is. They live and work on principals that they fought tooth and nail to get. You'd think the fuckers wouldn't bend to no one. Well, they bent to China, according to the book. It's o.k. guys, you still hold every bit of information about anyone who has ever done a google search or set up a gmail account, you've even got vans driving around the country recording us all so we can see where we're going before we get there and for that matter, see where we've been after we've gone...if we're lucky, I guess. oh! yeah, they also make billions on internet advertising. fuckers.
Drinks Before Dinner was also a great play I read recently. A dinner party, before the party and one of the guests decides to be disruptive and hold everyone hostage with a gun he got off some kid on the street earlier that day. he forces the group to tie up the guest of honor, a local government representative and nearly blows the guys head off. he is merely looking for an engaging conversation about anything and everything and hopes that after the ordeal they could still have dinner. we'll not everyone makes it, but the last line of the play is, "well, we should all sit down to dinner." (or something like that) great, absurd, brilliantly written.
and last night the lady Madeline treated me to the Profiles production of 'Some Girl(s)' which was stellar. they even performed the deleted scene which Madeline has been using as one of her monologues. the first in their Season of Labute, I hate them for stealing all the good plays and love them for giving me the opportunity to enjoy. a must see.
shooting some more 'It's Madeline Long' this weekend!!!
peace.
