I don't know if anyone on here goes to Tromadance or has heard of Troma, but I thought I'd give it a try. Tromadance is a film festival in Utah, but there are smaller ones held all over the world. There are a few people who want to get one started in Texas. If there are any people here who are interested, please e-mail me at cabotandthefish@hotmail.com.

Well, I did something productive... checked out prices on equipment rental. Seems that Texcam is my best bet in Houston... well, out of the places that have websites. If I earn some money for that, and finish the script for 100 Legs of Terror... I have cast/crew. They don't really know what they're doing, but it'll be ok. That's what owner's manuals are for.

Man, am I being lazy. I lost my notebook in this girl's car, and she's being a bitch about giving it back. It has most of my writing in it, which sucks. I need to get my ass in gear... well... I need to get a job, first. I will post again soon, once I figure out what I'm doing.

My dad's gonna help me make a theremin. He said that he made one when he was my age, and it's not very hard when you use the book by Moog.

So, Jaime just got a job. I am almost done paying the debt collection people. That means I can earn money to start working on something besides a script.

Well, the money thing isn't going so well. No one wants to give me any of it right now, and I have to pay off the debt collection agency with all of my money for the next few months... grr... I'm working and seeing no rewards.

Well, I finished the beginning of 100 Legs of Terror... it's perfect if you ask me. At least I've done some writing so far. I am quite lazy... and I want to have the entire thing done in under a year... it would be cool to send it to Tromadance.

I have like... $4 in my camera account... and Jaime and Candace and making me go to the mall. That means I might be able to beg for more money from stupid mall goers.

The insurance company is finally sending me money for my pain and suffering from the accident... which means I might be able to completely forget about my credit card debt. I'm also getting more hours at the video store. That means I am getting slightly closer to that $600!

I'm thinking... animated short of The Pit and the Pendulum... I can see it happening... gonna do it... Lorelei's even working on the main character. Involves a lot of light play, but we think we have it figured out alright.

I saw this badass camcorder at Target a couple hours ago... it's only like... around $300. Notice I said "only" when I can't pay rent and the credit card place keeps calling. Oh well, I WILL get that camcorder. It has awesome zoom going on and I've never worked with a digicorder... I'm looking forward to the experience. Plus, it'll be easier to edit on the computer. Now, I just have to find a way to get the money.

Jessie's a lazy bastard... Ok, really... I am doing some work. I just need some money for equipment... and by equipment, I mean a tape for my brother's camcorder. Man, this is sad.

Not to worry. I work at Movie Gallery and should be getting a paycheck next Friday. I do have to spend a little of it on gas and food and cigs and I really want to watch Kill Bill vol 2, but if I don't have enough money it should work out. Oh yeah, and the debt collectors want me to give them $150 a month... yeah right... not with the money I'm making. Maybe after they give me more than 10 hours a week for min wage.

Hey, I do get to rent videos for free, though. Jaime got to see Orgasmo, and we're gonna rent it again some time soon for Jerod to see. Plus, I got to rent Dead Man again.

I actually am selling my copy of the complete book and lyrics for Hedwig and the Angry Inch. I thought I would look on-line for people who want to buy it. I figure 15to15 to 15to20... I figure someone can send me the cash, I'll use a couple bucks of it to send them the book, and we're all happy. Hmm? Yeah, ok, mull it over.

PS
It's in great, almost perfect, condition.

Update... We plan on making a video that has 10 minute shorts for different movies we want to put together (me and Lorelei). Anyhow, here is the list of things that we want on the video so far. Feel free to give suggestions if you want to put something it in.

100 Legs of Terror

The film about the guy who hunts people for sport on his private island.

An almost PSA type commerical about transgedered people... Lorelei says the trannies with money will like it... I'm thinking it would be inspired by Glen or Glenda?.

The film about the tube slide that brings people into another dimension.

Still open for a couple more...

PS
This nice girl made me an icon for Mediocre Productions. I think it's cool.
