Twilight Zone

Hello? Is there anybody in there?

Paper Back Writer

It is very strange. I could just as well be writing on a blank piece of paper and then tear it to shreds. The theory is that their are more writers than readers. So many blogs and so little time. I have to get to work.

My story is a romantic comedy. I wrote it like it was the story I wanted to read. I want a story to make me laugh. I want a movie to make me laugh. One of the challenges for me

after 9-11 was for somebody to make me laugh. Nothing was funny to me anymore. The comedians I relied on were shooting blanks. Even after George Bush has retired, I find those entertainers were not so entertaining. A few voices do stand out. One is a famous talk show host who is a big lovable fuzz ball, the other is Dennis Miller. I used to watch him do the pseudo news on SNL. Dug him then. Pre 9-11 he used to do these shows on HBO. Bill Clinton was President. It was a different time. Miller used to go into a "rant" and the lighting would get dark and all of a sudden he was standing against a black background. His rants were frequently about something that had been bugging me. He would put it in such a way that you are shouting at the TV "Yeah! That's what I think!"

I have to cut this short. It's almost 9:00 am. That's when Dennis Miller is on, got to go.
