LIKE TRUE LOVE AND NORTH-SOUTH MAGNETS...
Talented people just keep finding each other.
Amazing, isn't it? One of the better theater companies to grow out of the garden of dramatic delights that was Synchronicity Space, along with our very own Present Tense Productions (see reviews below) was Lightning Strikes Theater Co. Now, they have found Buttcrack Carny Pictures (Stork Stalker ) and will be showing two of Buttcrack's Best, Chronic Nursery Rhymes: Jack and Jill and Urban Pills: Trio. It's part of Lightning Strikes First Mondays! series of short films and hot theater pieces at Galapagos in Williamsburg. When you get there, say you read about it on AFMAMF and get a free smirk. And listen for yours truly fulfilling a childhood dream as a subway conductor in Urban Pills.

What's that I smell? Oh, it's a Republican...
OK, here's the deal... I work several floors away from RNC Headquarters. Anyone requiring any sort of intel (for legal purposes only... I work in the building, too!) can post here and we'll work something out. Maybe they'll read this and think it'd be better to find another building, then we wouldn't have to deal with their rudeness (and farts) in the elevators any more.

STORK STALKER UPDATE
Voting for The Stork Stalker for Best Story is done... thanks everyone for voting! We'll keep you informed on how it goes... and on possible sequels.
Jodi Chamberlain, animator extraordinaire: Buttcrack Carny

THE MOST IMPORTANT VOTE YOU WILL EVER CAST IN YOUR LIFE
(If you're even thinking its for that lying sack of s*** in the White House, log off now as the rest of this is too complicated for your feeble brain to handle... you'll only get frustrated and want to pass some dopey legislation...)

Go to www.flashforward2004.com/peopleschoice.asp and cast your vote for BEST STORY for THE STORK STALKER, a great send-up of the Thin Man films written by friend Jennifer Duffy and animated by friend Jodi Chamberlain. (Check the cast list for the shameless self-promition part). It's a terrific short film that's getting great buzz... a victory for the do-it-youself artist class. And since it's up against a lot of big-money-backed stuff that shows that when you cash in you not only sell your soul but have it reformatted by DOD-level unencryption erase software, its winning would only be sweeter.

PS: As for that remark about "cashing in" I hearby promise to be different when and if the bushels of kale show up at my doorstep, I do! I do! I do! I won't let that Lexus keep me from being balls-out, nosireeebob!
