Draw The Pirate is Flyp Flix eMovie

FlypFlixDrawThePirate


I feel honored that that my short film “Draw the Pirate” was selected for the Flyp Flix eMovie a few months back. They were also cool enough to put up a video of me briefly describing the impetus behind the film’s creation. I look stoned don’t I? I’m not stoned. I’m sitting at my desk trying to write something....anything...worthwhile.

Orange Country Chronic Con


















This is another segment I did recently for Attack of the Show, with the extremely funny WIll Bowles. I was channeling Dan Akroyd, and the host Chris Hardwicke comments on it somewhat afterward (although Akroyd is from Toronto).

Tomorrowland Spaceman: My Dream Job

S-spacecouple
I’ve finally realized what I want to be when I grow up, and it’s gonna be a challenge: I want to be the Spaceman in Disneyalnd’s Tomorrowland circa 1957. That guy had everything: cool outfit, cool ride (a rocketship called the TWA Moonliner...how cool is that?) a sexy space WOMAN to hang around with

K7Tomorrowland

He’s got such a cool, classic sci-fi spacesuit, silver lamé with padded rolls and some sort of communications device on his belt, and an awesome helmet with the antenna. The spaceman’s role seems to be ambassadorial (Hey, space is great folks, you should try it!) although I think he had to shill for Kaiser Aluminum (the sponsors of the Hall of Fame from 1955-1960).

At the end of a tough day doing whatever he did the Tomorrowland Spaceman even had a Space Bar to go to.

Drewry_8_56_SpaceBar

Who did he talk to on that communicator belt? Walt Disney? Guss Grissom? JFK? I love the optimism of early Tomorrowland. A post-war, pre-Nam American where anything was possible.

KT_5960_N04B

This shot below is amazing. Surrounded by Cub Scouts, looking very fligh-ready. Telling the boys to drink Ovaltine and study calculous and they can be Spacemen too.

Spaceman

Here he is hanging out with your aunts and grandmother, posing nonchalantly like David Niven. The spacesuit is more streamlined, no rolled sleeves, communicator belt or even gloves. Space girl’s outfit is missing the cape and frilly skirt previous girlstronauts wore.
