I don't know if this message will even be seen because of this New 'Sobig' virus going around the internet. My server and computer was slammed today.

I got my electric bill today and couldn't believe how expensive it is to run your air conditioner 24/7.

I had an interesting couple of hours today when while eating dinner at a restaurant I noticed a pretty woman smiling at me. She was smiling I thought because I was reading a book about film and maybe knew the book. I can't say why I think that, but anyway...

Later I was at the store buying some supplies and she was shopping right behind me. We talked abit. She said she was stalking me. I told her to save her strength and that I'd give her my number and address...

But I didn't. She said stalking me would be the fun part, not actually having me.

I know how to meet women now... Chinese police arrested the director of a psychiatric hospital for drugging female patients and selling them off as wives.

That might work.

I'm thinking of starting some sort of treatment with cholesterol-lowering "statins" drugs like Zocor or Lipitor they seem to be good not only for the heart but also for depression, researchers say.

Also I heard about that fish oil pill being good. I need to eat more fish, but it's kind of expensive to get. I need to move to the country and live on a river like Huck Finn. Then I'll be less depressed.

But then something could happen to me like what happened to Lim Vanthan, 17, when his family were planting rice at the weekend near their home on the outskirts of the impoverished Southeast Asian nation's capital, Phnom Pehn when they decided to go for a swim.

During his dip, Lim Vanthan caught a prized eight-inch fish, called kantrob in Cambodian, with his hands.

But the high school student's excitement was short-lived when his catch squirmed out of his hands and jumped into his mouth, where it became stuck because of barbs running down its back.

He died of suffocation before he could receive treatment at a local clinic.

That would suck to die that way. Or even with those tiny eels that swim up the small opening of the penis and lodge themselves up in there where it's warm. That would really suck!

I think I know what I'll be doing Sept. 20...The Cure, Duran Duran, Violent Femmes, Echo & the Bunnymen and the Psychedelic Furs will headline the third annual Inland Invasion concert in Devore, Ca..

Also on tap for Inland Invasion III, which will take place at the Glen Helen Hyundai Pavilion, are Hot Hot Heat, Dashboard Confessional, Bow Wow Wow, Interpol, General Public, Fountains Of Wayne, Soft Cell, Berlin and Dramarama.

You might remember I produced and directed a concert feature film with Dramarama and a lil' band called, "Pearl Jam"...

Oh those were the days...
