It's been a while since I've eaten Gyros. I love 'em! Didn't know any places in Fresno where I could eat some, but last night went to Broilers next to Edwards Cinema in River Park and filled up real well.

There was a time when I would eat that stuff everyday. Gyros, Falafels, Stuffed Grape Leaves, Loofahs... Whaaa? Who am I Bill O'Reilly?

Been watching some thought provoking DVD's these last few days. I watched the bonus disc for "The Ingmar Bergman Collection." Due to the recall of the Ingmar Bergman Collection Boxset I missed getting it. So I rented it from Green Cine.The Bonus Disc has some great stuff:

"Intermezzo" - A Rare Conversation with Ingmar Bergman
An Interview with Ingmar Bergman (1970)
"Sven Nykvist: With One Eye He Cries" - A look at the celebrated Cinematographer and longtime Bergman collaborator
"Faro Island Mystique" -A featurette exploring the principal location of many Bergman films and a place I want to live!
American Cinematographer, April 1972: "Filmmaking in Sweden" - A collection of original articles on the works of Ingmar Bergman

Plus:
I rented, "Ingmar Bergman Makes a Movie" by director Vilgot Sjöman. I've wanted to see this for sometime. I saw it as a kid and was very influenced by it. I had to get my local library to rent it for me. It came in on 16mm and they had to set up a projector for me. I was 12 years old and watching Ingmar Bergman, they thought I was a freak!

Speaking of Freak! I ran into Dexter, a rather handsome Twin Brother from Another Mother Magician who works on "Criss Angel - Mindfreak." The guy is awesome, cool, talented and a fan of the show. I would so much love to work on that TV show. I can do a few illusions...

I have the ability to take a beautiful women disappear...
