Got the DSL working on my other phone line. Still getting ready for the MAN. I have a lot to do and a short shoot this Sunday with AR. Been promoting the company, but I have to focus on the MAN. I have a desire to find out what is going on in the movie community here, but it is probably the same old stuff. And I been there and done that, so it is time to move on.

Have to decide how edgy I want to be with the MAN. Being a theater piece, I can play off the audience and see where they are and what they respond to. While I don't want anyone to walk out, I do want people to come out of it enlightened and entertained. During the Talk Show routine, I will go up to people who I know in the audience and ask them about the MAN. This show should have an unexpected angle to it. Some parts of course will be scripted and some won't.

Of course how much do I want to be truthful is the real key to this. The more truthful the better it is. The only problem about truth is that while it makes for good press, it is hard to live with.

Well I have started to advertise the MAN for my CPT play. After it, of course I will ahve to get out of town. I plan to as un PC as I can with the whole event. It should be quite a thing to do. Different than what most of the other film folk here are doing. Of course it causes me look back at my life and the things I have done. All in all, can't say I have the fortune, but I have did some things I am proud of and I have quite a library of work. For whatever it is worth. Going to get with Jay and get his help with it. I alos need to pull in some other people to help out with the company.

Sooner or later I am going to have to connect with the movie community here. Still I have foudn that I am happier and more productive when I don't. Not that I don't like them, but in life one has to move on from things.

After the CPT thing, I really should get out of here for good. Anyhow I will probalby have a lot more anxiety as the play/event gets near. As they say, "Be careful what you wish for."
