shmorgasBlog



okay so here's the deal.

no updates lately, for i've been a busy, busy real boy. i'm ironing out the treatment for my new screenplay, which should be a really cool drama (even though keith mitchell gave me a critical lashing when i pitched to him). look for a completed first draft in april.
match point will rock your world, bitches.
shmooze had their first event ever on tuesday evening! ian helped organize a screening of the 1999 documentary 'one day in september', a stunning look inside the munich olympics massacre in 1972. afterwards, there was a discussion and q/a with colonel. kami robinson, a former member of the israel defense force. though i understood his qualms with the portrayal of israelis in 'munich' i still enjoyed the movie and will defend kushner and spielberg for their tireless efforts.
feist played immediately after the shmooze-fest, so i had to scurry over to the blind pig to make it on time. feist was cute and charismatic and all, but her show didn't floor me like i suspected. also, her band members are creepy mcCreepertons.
and finally, i write this post from the arts editor's desk michigan daily. it's jeopardy night: the final hurrah for the seniors. a night to make an absurdist paper, drink, say goodbyes, go in the attic, drink and play jeopardy. i've never totally involved myself with daily activities, but i've paid my dues. fuck it up.
finally, i head to charlevoix this weekend for hopefully one of many more northern michigan romps in 06.
