Sadomasochists, You Like Me! You Really, Really Like Me!
Hey, it’s not Siskel & Ebert, but somebody in the S&M community thought enough of my film “S&M Queen For A Day” to write this thoughtful review.
“It’s a quirky little piece, but I find it strangely affecting,” says the writer of my short comedy. Hey, any press is good press, right?

Eric’s Top Ten List
The Top Ten Things You Can Blame For the Virginia Tech Shooting Other Than The Lack of Gun Control, If You’re In Total Denial
10. Korean action films and their widely imitated “hammer pose” posters
9. The failure to create a much-needed “Nut Alert System” (as proposed by nutty conservative analyst Amy Holmes)
8. Marilyn Manson’s dark new album
7. A much too lenient grading curve in college creative writing classes
6. Immigrants and their ambition to assimilate their children into chiefly white American male pursuits such as going postal with .9 mm Glocks
5. The feminization of the American male, who obviously needs to be taunted and ridiculed as a pussy-boy more often
4. The decline of martial virtues such as valor and glory … (No, we at the ‘National Review’ are not kidding. No, really.)
3. The failure to create a “culture of life” among semi-autistic kids exhibiting anti-social behavior disorder, clinical depression, paranoia, flat affect, and suicidal ideation.
2. Trans-fatty acids and other lipids
1. You didn’t support the troops

Vonnegut … and so it goes… One of my literary heroes, Kurt Vonnegut, has died at age 84. I never met the man, though I did hear him speak on two occasions, five years apart, when he gave the same lecture. Just once, though, after I moved to New York City, I saw him in the street near the Turtle Bay area of Midtown Manhattan where I worked, and because I never knew what I would do if I saw one of my heroes, I stood dead still and stared at him crossing Second Avenue. And our eyes met. He looked at me, and I looked at him. He knew I recognized him. And then the man who survived the firebombing of Dresden, who was a prisoner of war in Nazi Germany, who wrote many novels on the moral implications of science, who invented the Tralfamadorians, and Kilgore Trout, and Billy Pilgrim, and Bokononism, and Foma, and Wampeters, who was the honorary president of the American Humanist Association, the man who used science fantasy to address the horrors of science reality … this great man looked back at me with total fear in his eyes that I was a stalker, turned at a sharp cut, and walked in the other direction, out of my life forever. Here are the Top Ten reasons you should read a Kurt Vonnegut book immediately: 10. When the Tralfamadorians in “Slaughterhouse-Five” kidnap Billy Pilgrim and porn star Montana Wildhack and force them to mate as part of a science experiment on Tralfamador. 9. When the killer substance Ice 9 ravages the world and brings on the apocalypse in “Cat’s Cradle.” 8. When anarchy breaks out in “Player Piano” and the machinists are suddenly the only people who can lead in this completely automated society. 7. When Vonnegut appears as himself in “Breakfast of Champions” and gets attacked by a dog and his testicles get sucked up into his own body cavity. 6. When he is confronted by his fictional creation of Kilgore Trout in “Breakfast of Champions,” who begs Vonnegut, as the Creator, to make him young again. 5. When Bokonon, an ex-U.S. serviceman, creates his own religion on a Caribbean Island, known as Bokononism in “Cat’s Cradle.” 4. When Vonnegut stops the action in “Slaughterhouse-Five” to make the audience aware that his protagonist has an enormous member. “You never know who’ll get one,” he writes. 3. When Vonnegut stops the action in “Breakfast of Champions” to make little pen doodles of everything from his sunglasses, to his anus, to hamburgers to an American flag to show things that represent life in America. 2. For his female protagonist in “Cat’s Cradle,” who says it is selfish to share love with just one person. 1. For offering this prayer for the dying … “And So It Goes.”

Hey all,
I’ve had a little downtime with other projects, so I spent January and February recording some music. You can find some of it here, if you like:

A high buzzard
touches the mind
In a yard
of bleached bones,
Bare, calloused feet
heel the knocks
of sand,
Under cloud
dark beet,
No
water to sustain
Not even tongue
of root. Nor rain
to lick the rocks
In the turtle-lidded
insides
Of shells, once eyes:
A beggar collects
pennies for the temple
Pennies are pain’s gold.
Then from under the cock’s crow,
And hook-winged Molloch,
A star strumpet’s snow angel sallies
Across the desert floor
With His word
Absolution,
To clean the mind
Of its preoccupations
Cleanse rude
light off the Eastern rain
Through the
heat
Cool winding rose
Surfaces
All in the mind
August is reconfigured,
To expire
in good time

A psychological horror tale from a friend of mine, Dana Wickens, starring yours truly in my very short, abortive acting career.
Enjoy it here.
Dana’s also the drummer for a Boston rock outfit called The Yestones, and you can hear a really cool song they did called “London” here.
