The Luckiest Boy On Earth

Hey Soul Mates,
it has been a wonderful birthday morning. Began with a jog beneath the Hollywood sign. The trail overlooks Lake Hollywood. In the fog this morning it actually looked like a Scottish Loch. Perhaps, Loch Holliewyde. There were very few people about, but there was a bluebird (!) and some eastern european tourist who rode up in a cab to take pictures.

OK. Remember my post about Tony Millionaire: The Genius. I'm the luckiest boy on earth. Today my wish came true! My beloved gave me "Duck-Hat/Poo Poo" the original art by Mr. Millionaire. I haven't laughed so hard in so long as that strip makes me break up. You know I've been lusting after Tony's original strips for some time and to receive one that I particularly loved is amazing.
This is me and my New Arte Worke.



Someday, I believe Tony's strips will hold a respected place in the comics pantheon. Or at least have a key to the men's room. Thanks, Tony for the artistry and thanks to my own for the thoughtfulness.

I wish you all a great day, after all, it's my birthday. Why not?
Love, Power, Peace

Welcome Home, Roscoe Jenkins (Review)

I'm just in from the world premiere of Welcome Home, Roscoe Jenkins . WHRJ is the new comedy starring Martin Lawrence, directed by Malcolm Lee ( Roll Bounce ; Undercover Brother both underrated and well-worth your time) . It's the story of a Hollywood hotshot who takes his new fiancee and his son to his parents' 50 th wedding anniversary/family reunion. Mr. Lawrence as usual shows off his comedic genius. He has steadily become a sure bet in Hollywood. This time Lawrence is flanked by a cast of stars that at times threaten to steal the movie. Mike Epps (Reggie, a straight-up fool) and Mo'Nique (Betty) in particular shine in their roles as cousins to Lawrence's talk show king, RJ Stevens aka Roscoe Jenkins. The gift of gab runs deep in this family. Michael Clarke Duncan has never made me laugh so hard as Otis, Roscoe's unlikely little brother. Anytime the three of them were on screen the audience's laughter drowned out the dialogue. Watch for the softba...

Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air - Book Review

“The Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air” is a trippy new mystery novel from Phillip Mottaz. It captures the grit and gilt of the City of Angels with the flair of a contemporary Raymond Chandler. The brisk pace and wit are reminiscent of Douglas Adams’s entries in the detective game. Flourishes of  Fletch  and “Medium” also spring to mind. However, Mottaz has added a psychic/mutant/superhuman touch and his own comedic voice, structure and internal monologues to the proceedings that help the author announce his own style and the arrival of a literary heroine for a new generation. Hairstylist and budding private investigator, Danica Luman is the perfect character to convey the irony, angst and sarcasm needed to tell a 21st century L.A. crime story. Danica also represents anyone who thought it would be neat to get tangled up in a mystery and the darkly comic cautionary tale that follows. The genre is recognizable, but Mottaz offers a fresh take on the not-ready-for-prime-ti...
