A friend has made me some CDs to ease my pain and sent them last Monday First Class from LA. Did they arrive?

Not yet. As a former shipping clerk... That blows!

Why spend First Class money, if Media Mail gets there just as fast. Well, not always, but dude! That should have been here.

I've been meeting people about the TV show. But who knows...

I shot a lil' thing this morning about Tartar Sauce vs. Tartar Control Toothpaste. I did a lil' stop-motion duel with it. No real stop-motion I just went in to iMovie to edit out my hand movements...

SSSSSSLLLLOOOOWWWW!

I put the iSight camera on the end of a thin PVC pipe to see if I could get some crazy angles... DUDE it's cool! I just need to get a really long cable. May have to get one made.

If I can, I think I'll use it to video tape myself out on the streets. The PVC will take a lot of the vibration out.

I once saw a Brazilian TV show where the guy just handheld the camera on himself for the whole show while he interviewed people. I know it sounds strange, but it had a cool effect when watching it. I couldn't even understand what he was saying, but I watched the whole show!

People have called and e-mailed.

Several people from work have called. People I didn't even know, or know well. That made me feel really great!

People from other stations in town have called and e-mailed, that really ROCKS!

I haven't been sleeping well, but didn't before either. A lil' sleep. Yes, I was worrying and thinking and thinking and thinking
and thinking and thinking and thinking...

I went to Target picked up two cool $9 lamps, walked around and then left the cart filled and alone in an aisle and walked away empty. I just couldn't spend.

I hope the lamps stay on sale, I think I want to use them to light some scenes in my movie. The flexy part of it can really point the lights, but the thing about it I really want is the stand. I can clamp lights to the pole!

Man, it is crazy outside. Everybody wanted to drive into me, bump into me, jump in front of me, step on me, spit on me and even ignore me.

I overheard two guys in their 40's and 50's talking about the Watts Valley Wolf Ape, but the guy called it, The Devil Ape. That really cheered me up! I wanted to say something, but didn't. I know they heard it from the radio show, or someone heard it and told them. Sometimes it's fun to be invisible!

I know how to get press!

Bad press anyway...

Least they spelled my name right!

More calls from Listeners and Fans come in as well as e-mails:

Okay, I just have to vent, then I'll get rational.

DUDE! Who thought this was a good idea. I hope the Watts Valley
Wolf-Ape bites their balls off!

Ugh, sorry about that, but it had to be done.

Well, Jerry, what can I say? I've been listening to The Front Row for a
few years now. I can't imagine starting my day without laughing along
with you. Hell, I would say you kept me sane while I was studying for
the Bar exam (passed by the way), and kept me sane through all the
other daily crap. This just bites ass, but it is one of
those crappy things that happens I guess. I don't have to worry about
you too much though because I think you are talented and you will
be just fine. Anyway, thanks for the laughs, the Freaks, the great times,
and for getting me ready to face the day armed with a smile and a few jokes.

Well, the mail from the listeners are sometimes hard for me to read, not just because it's so sad, or because most of the listeners can't spell, but because I know what it's like to have a friend move away, a parent die, a favorite TV Show get canceled, a favorite radio station flip to a language I didn't understand, and a radio personality that was funny and smart about local things I could drive by and see for myself, get blown out. How cool is it to hear a DJ talk about some idiotic thing that you yourself thought was silly in your own town?

Well, vent if you need to, write if you must, call if you wish, I am here for now.

Give Mancow a try. I have a friend that LOVES him! Maybe you will dig him too! I would hate to see you boycott KRZR and their advertisers. I still have friends working there and it just might mean if they lose your support and the support of advertisers, they'll lose their jobs and then one morning it's "All Spanish All the Time!!!"

Boycotting Advertisers is something those crazy old Christian Ladies do! Sure they get their way and it works! But do you want to do what they do?

Did Jesus ever boycott a Radio Station?

No!

Be like Jesus! And if you know Jesus, tell him to get me a show quick! I can't eat at Hooter's with their prices if Daddy ain't hauling in the money!
