Josie’s

Dear Uncle Sam,
The same gifted young filmmakers that cajoled me into playing an evil nerd in their short film “Offline”, convinced me to act again in their latest short, entitled “Josie’s”, pitching it to me as a filmed “food-fight”. They sold me instantly on the idea of participating in a spaghetti and meatballs war, and I agreed to be cast as “Arrogant Preppy Boy” in the film. During the course of the two-day shoot at a nearby restaurant, it became apparent to me that this was not so much a food-fight, as a food attack, and I was the attacked, not the attacker.

Yours Truly as “Arrogant Preppy Boy”
The first heavy, cold, hard meatball hit me right in the neck, beside my adam’s apple. I tried to cry out, but only managed to wheeze. The second bounced off the tip of my head, spraying tomato sauce “blood” all over the booth. The barrage of pasta and beef was shot over and over from different angles.
There’s nothing quite so discouraging as gettting a meatball in the eye, and then learning that the boom-mic had drooped into frame. I’m sure that’s happen to many of you, also.
Here is another electronic piece from the reality show I mentioned in the previous entry, sampling another song, called “You Can Handle It, Mrs White”, from my new album, “The Unquiet and Apart”.
