I've got a lovely bunch of... usb drives


There they are all standing in a row...
My dad works at one of the main postal sorting centers. He's in charge of maintaining the machinery that sorts the mail. He tells me that people try to mail usb drives through standard envelopes all the time. When they hit the machines the get destroyed and the contents fall through a filter. Somteimes my dad brings home these usb's after no one claims them for a month. I love checking whats on them. Most the time its family photos or school/work documents. I've only gotten porn once and it was horrible. I would love to return some of these photos to their owners but they never have any documentation. I've even looked at the pictures for any kind of clues as to where these people are. I'm thinking about posting them online and starting like a lost photos blog.
P.s. Please use bubble envelopes to mail your usb's or stuff like that. Don't try to cheat postage.

I have nightmares about googley eyes

Sometimes its hard to distinguish the line between humor and horror when it comes to googley eyes. Seeing them on inanimate objects is funny. But when you dream of sitting at a dinner table and everyone is wearing them and they're all staring at you is a creepy thing. I've been trying write googley eyes into a short but with no such luck. maybe thats a good thing.

im not sure if i posted this already. but heres what started it all.

Delilah (yeah its a zombie script)

Click the link to read online.
Delilah

So I'm trying out this pdfcast.org site cause I just want to start posting all these random scripts I have. I've been looking for a good way to post these things in their entirety. So please enjoy. Some of these next scripts will make no sense at all sometimes.


So this script is called Delilah. I wrote this sometime last year and I just decided to pull it out and do some revisions of the dialogue. I took the less is more approach. Plus the situation the characters were in didn't really seem fit to have such wordy banter.

I felt like today was like a bottle episode

In television, a bottle episode is referred to an episode of a show that is specifically written as a budget saver. They usually never leave the main set and have no special guest stars... I didn't do anything today. at all. what a waste.

On being Jim and Casey


I don't know why writing is ridiculously hard right now. I wanna sit down, lock myself in and crank out the script to end all scripts. I wanna Kerouac this thing. Right now I'm trying to just write dialogue. I little technique I'm trying to develop is to just start writing dialogue between two people. I just randomly picked the names JIM and CASEY so that whatever I write they'll have consistent names to them. After a while, if it works, I'll be able to see a clear path towards developing these characters, their conflicts. And then the rest pretty much writes itself.

As silly as it gets.

And then we get into a fight scene. It ends with the sammich falling on the floor (maybe). And everyones a loser.

The headache from the depths of hell.

This thing just wont go away. I', a little concerned about the latest eye operation. When I had my right eye done, I had a headache for damn near a month straight. It was supposed to be because my eye was adjusting to the new focal length. But damn, my left eye makes me feel like I've been punched in the face sometimes. I've had this headache for a month. I am going insane.

Gonna get my resume looked over by some industry friends. Lets hope that buttery mutha fucka will melt in their mouth. laugh out loud.
