In an never ending attempt to create excitement in my life, I will be conducting a discussion of independent Adult moviemaking tomorrow night at 7PM in Burbank. If you are interested in attending, please e-mail me.
My life has comedown to this... Porn!
Every week meet a friendly group to discuss and create a series of Adult Films. We meet in a restaurant, in Burbank, in public so be cool! Then we work out the details and calculate funds needed.
The more members we have the cheaper it we be for each of us to fulfill
the budgets. Budgets may run between $1000-$3000 or more depending if when need to cast more actors. The actors that we may have to pay will
not be aloud to receive ongoing profits.
We will also join forces and funds to generate Adult Product of our
own. Each participating member (no pun, please) will share equally in any
profits. Each member (be adult now) will be expected to split funds or
talent skills.
If you are interested in meeting like minded people and making Fetish,
Lesbian, any kind of legal porn, hard or soft ... Let's get together.
We will create our own website and sell our own stuff. You will be able
to check the accounting. Open book to members. If you are a
dancer/model/actress/actor looking for safe, fun, and a more active role in your career and money... Let's meet!
Why work as a payout artist/talent when you could continue generating
profits from your work, work you've already done?
Only friendly easy going people please... No wackos, unless you're a
total babe, then we will just suffer with you personality while only
exploiting your looks.
If interested, e-mail and you'll be notified of time and location of the meeting.
The World Famous Jerry Lentz
What you are about to become obsessed with is completely true.

Yesterday...
Got better.
I saw my wife after almost six months. That was kinda scary, but turned out fine. Fine except she got to see my progress from loser to loser-plus.
Taxes always bring us all together.
Today I met with a very nice man, Vaughn Obern. He is Chairman of the Cinema-Television Department of LACC. He took me on a tour of the Cinema building and stages.
It was a nice walk. Then I found a parking ticket on my car. $45. This sign was nowhere near my car and when I did find it it was overly confusing. Great!
Maybe it's a sign.
I stopped by SAG and then AFTRA over on Wilshire, to pick up some show sheets. Looking for agents again. Mainly looking for work and money.
Please sent some my way if you can!

Well, I saw Star Trek: Nemesis at The Vine on Hollywood Blvd and have to say I rather enjoyed it. Then after walking out of the theater found myself in the middle of a movie shoot that the Farrelly Brothers are making. Got to see them work up close and meet some of their mentally challenged friends. They seem so cool to have friends that other snobs would ignore. This one guy walked around honking an imaginary car horn at everyone.
I can't remember the name of the movie but its got Matt Damon in it, which is funny cause a week ago Ben Affleck was filming his Xmas movie on my block. Yes, J-Lo was there!
And speakin' of J-Lo, I saw her new line of clothes on Hollywood Blvd being set up in a window display. The best part was the window dresser positioned a mannequin where you can look up her dress. Yes, she had no panties on!
I know there is so much excitement in my life, but I'm still just "Jerry-from-da-block".

After a nice early breakfast at the Coral Cafe before the "Church Crowd" could slam the place, I hit the streets to Monrovia to cruise Wal-Mart. I found my fav new snack food, "Atkin's Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar" about $1 cheaper than my local dealers push on me.
I picked up some new jeans that will now fit me better than what I have. I've lost so much weight. I now can wear 32X34's if you wanna sent me some as a gift.
I stopped in Pasadena on my way back and visited the bookstore, Vromans where I saw a book called, I think, "How to lose 200 Pounds in a weekend", it's all about cleaning out the junk in your house. Selling it, giving it away, or just trashing it... Very funny! It really jumped out at me as I'm doing just that now.
I mentioned this before, but, I never saw "Star Trek:Nemesis" and while I know all my friends hated it, I met a dude the other day that said he really enjoyed it. So, in a search online I found that It is still playing at The Vine on Hollywood Blvd...
I might beam on over there... Cause I'm bored.
And Frontier Wok doesn't open until 4PM on Sundays... I know, that sucks.

While bored and cleaning up my place, I was popping in old videos to see what to keep, sell, or throw away. I found so many unlabeled tapes. One had a segment of a yardsale I had about 15 years ago in Dallas, Texas shot by Quigman's cartoonist Buddy Hickerson. It was very funny. I actually had to stop cleaning and sit for a bit to watch it. It really brought a needed smile to my face.
Sometimes it's nice to find little pearls in junk that might have so easily been just thrown away. It's like they needed to be hiden away for those gloomy down days awaiting for you to find them and make you smile.
I also found an old collection of Star Trek Bloopers someone made for me that was fun to watch.
I also found a thin layer of coal under all my junk. I just know that underneath that will be a few diamonds... That'll be good to help cover my bills.

While wall-papering my apartment in plastic wrap, tarp, duct tape, and aluminum foil, it occurred to me just how hard it is to make this stuff look decorative. I wish someone like Christopher Lowell would do a show on how to decorate your home, Homeland Security Style... With class.
Looks like I'm getting ready to shoot a Crisco Twister Video...
Maybe I will...
While awaiting disaster, I've been thinking alot about Irwin Allen. There doesn't seem to be any great book about him out there. A book to explain this complex man. I've been accumulating information on him that just maybe could be put together to fill that need. I'd really like to talk to those that knew him. I know he wasn't well liked... But really, who is?
If you know anyone remotely connected to Irwin Allen, please give me an e-mail shout-out.
Now, I must get back to my plastic wrapping... as it's tough to type through the Saran wrap that I've bound my keyboard in.

I thought I'd share with you a major scare I just had...
It's only to impress upon you just how careful you need to be while putting on clean underwear.
I guess this might also have something to do with all the rain we've received. I was rooting around for some underwear in my drawer... I had to really dig as I'm past due for doing my laundry.
I grabbed a good pair and I was up on one leg when I just happened to look inside and there hanging out like it was a summer day in the hammock was a great BIG SPIDER. Just chillin' on that strip of tant cover that bridges the front and back of my briefs was this ugly spider waiting for me to teabag him...
I totally flipped out.
I can't stand spiders. I like the way they look in photographs and after an atomic bomb test mutation in a Jack Arnold or Bert I. Gordon flick, but not clinging to my balls. This has happened to me before.
I'm wondering if others have this problem?
I'm very conscientious about spraying my crotch with bleach (I mean the crotch of my underwear) and various spray cleaners... I wonder if there is something in the chemicals that attract spiders?
A listener to my show once sent me photos of a spider bite he had to his leg... He nearly had to have it amputated. I'd hate to have my balls amputated... Now that I'm divorced.

While I was in a slough of despond, I found myself at 3AM needing to get out of my rut and find some inspiration.
For some reason, thinking of things from my youth always makes me happy. Not that I had a great childhood, I didn't, but while hiding out in my bedroom reading I was able to escape. Much of my many escapes were navigated by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
One of the pleasures of living here in North Hollywood is, that Tarzana is not that far away.
Not that the city itself is so wonderful, it might be... It's just that ERB built the place with his words and dreams.
That's inspiring!
I've driven there to Tarzana many times but was never able to find the big oak tree that towers over and absorbed Burroughs ashes.
It always seemed to be rush hour while my search was on. Ventura Blvd isn't kind to those who have to drive slow to read addresses hidden in small print on business establishments.
At 3AM it seemed just right!
The streets were empty and I finally found 18354 Ventura and the big oak.
Like a stalker, my car rolled to a stop, lights out, engine off... I just sat awhile thinking of Edgar walking, thinking, dreaming, and writing.
I got out as Police drove by slowly. Looking. What would i say if that asked why I was looking at this old building?
I stood next to the fence. It was cold and still wet from our El Nino visitor. I cold see my breath against the darkened oak and black sky. For a moment thought it might be a ghost. I wondered what Edgar would think of a lonely fan standing at the front of his house thinking of him on this cold quite morning.
Suddenly, a light seemed to pass across me and the old house. Was it a Police cruiser's lights scanning across me? Then I swear the clouds above parted and the biggest full moon appeared. It illuminated the whole area and then just as quickly the black sky swallowed it back up.
I felt like Edgar made his appearance and then hastily returned to his writing.
Silly I know, but I needed it this morning and it worked for me.
Back in the car I went all inspired. That's all I needed. Just to stand where he might have stood.

Things have been pretty weird lately...
The El Nino has been like a baptism of the Devil's rain on me. The ether has put its disease in me. I've been very down.
Valentine's Day has a double whammy in for me... My friend Richard Layman died on this day and my X-Wife and I met on the 14th at a screening of "David Holzman's Diary" in Dallas.
These days have been a blur.
My friend Aaron has purchased yet another house, this one actually overlooks two major Hollywood landmarks... Madonna's old house and the dam that burst in the Classic Sensoround Cinema Cheese, "Earthquake".
I was driving in the rain, as is my wont, and this guy in a black Lexus, I think, began honking and flashing his lights at me when I wasn't going fast enough and pushing the truck in front of me out of the way. He just couldn't stand driving less than 65mph in two feet of flash-flood LA River backup, so he passes me on the right and splashes a ton of spray on my car, blinding me. When my wipers shoveled off the water I could only see the top of his Lexus. The right side of the street was deep in water and his machine completely stalled as water rushed up over the wheels and most likely into his prize Lexus. As I passed in my lil' Honda Civic, I could see him pounding his steering-wheel.
This past week so many Publishers have sent books for me to review and interview their authors for my radio show... I don't know how I'm going to read them all. I've gotten bad looks from the Postal Worker who gave up hauling the books upstairs, so now he/she just throws them up and over the railings of the stairs. Nice.
Prepare to witness a major sale coming soon to this website... I have to empty some of clutter here in my place and simplify... So get ready to go to my eBay link soon, just think of it as helping a friend pay his past due bills so he won't be kicked out on to the streets.

I've be told how some people are copying info that I write here and then they post it on their chat-rooms, message-boards, groups and bulletin-boards, yet give me no credit. They just assume others will think they came up with the stuff. Why do they do it?
I interviewed author David Gerrold today he was great. He wrote some fantastic books, plus he wrote the "Trouble With Tribbles" episode of Star Trek. The interview aired and then engineers told me the servers died and now my producer has just told me that the interview has been lost.... WHAT? No back-up?
We've already received some nice e-mails about the interview, so I know people heard it.
I guess I'll have to get him on camera this time. I like to get authors on camera to archive their presence for future generations.
Still I'm saddened by the lost interview...
Please cheer me up folks!
What would make me happy?
I dunno...
Send me some money and lemme think it over.

As you may know from hanging out with me, I've got an addiction to Carbo-lite Bars. I love the Chocolate Crisp and the Peanut-Butter and Chocolate one too. Tonight my friend Aaron and I were at our local Trader Joe's and he picked out an Atkin produced bar that I had tried before, but hated, this time they made some changes in the formula and I have to tell you it ROCKS.
I took Aaron to my fav library where we ran into this really cool/beautiful/funny actress looking for plays to perform. I think I totally freaked her out, but she looked like she could handle it.
I picked up another book about Billy Wilder. I love him and his films.
I also got a book of letters from Isaac Asimov, but I only picked it up because of his photo on the cover. I love those muttonchops!
A lot happened today, but I'm so exhausted I can't go into all the excitement right now.
On George Noory's radio show, Richard Hogland is discussing that now it may truly be terrorism/sabotage that destroyed the space shuttle. It seems that all the work of glueing tiles to the shuttle is farmed out to unskilled laborers. Easily infiltrated by "bad people".

While this may not seem exciting to some, today at my local library book sale, I found a thick paperback from 1970 called, "The Science Fiction Hall of Fame: Volume One" for only 25 Cents. I bought it even though I haven't found enough to pay this months rent. I got my priorities I guess.
The book is important to me because several stories are from the 1930's, the rest are from the 40's and 50's and many are bases for episodes to one of my favorite Old Time Radio Shows... "X-Minus One". If you ever get a chance to hear these shows you just might get hooked and have to have all of them.
The short stories in the book that were transformed into my fav Radio Drama episodes are:
James Blish - Surface Tension
Ray Bradbury - Mars is Heaven
Isaac Asimov - Nightfall
Tom Godwin - The Cold Equations
But there are so many other great stories... I think I really love the so-called Golden Age of SciFi more than what I'm reading currently, even though the writing, I think is better today...
I was talking with a friend about how we don't seem to have the sense of wonder anymore because technology is flying by us so fast we can't keep up and our imagination must really strain hard to stay in front of the parade.
It's fun sometimes to read a story where in the far future of 1977 men will colonize Mars, or that night comes only ever thousand years, or where ad agencies try marketing new products to us even though we've already died in a Nuclear explosion that we have to keep reliving because we are actually action figures with brain cells that can only hold the last 24 Hours of our life and we've just discovered a tunnel under our house that leads us to the edge of town were we uncover the secret that we are living in a city that's really just a tabletop miniature and we should have just shut up, mind our own business, and smoked the cigarettes the radio ads in the elevator told us to...
You know, the good stuff!

Today was a busy one.
I interviewed homeless author, Ace Backwards, and found him very cool. His book is great and so is his heart.
I interviewed Duncan Long, and found in him a possible mentor in writing, art, music, weapons, and... Hell, ain't that enuf?
I interviewed Matthew Warner about his book The Organ Donor, and found out more than I had even read in his book. A book he wrote while sitting on a subway going to work at a Law firm in D.C., a book that may cause change in how we die.
I interviewed Steve otherwise known as "Cult TV Man" about his book, website, and the life of model making, CNN, and SciFi movies.
I also, talked with the program director of a North Carolina rock radio station about being a PD and afternoon radio personality in Jacksonville, NC, The Proud Home Of CAMP LeJEUNE...The Largest Marine Base In The U.S.!
Can you handle the truth?!!!
One full day...

I, like alot of my friends walked around in a sort of daze after yesterdays' tragedy with the Space Shuttle. This morning at a diner I overheard a middle-eastern girl asking the waitress, "What does NASA stand for?"
The waitress tried to remember, but couldn't.
The girl then said, "Need Another Seven Astronauts."
Her group of friends all began laughing heartily.
I felt angry. All those feelings I had during 9/11 when I wasn't able to find my wife, when American Airlines called me and told me to just pray, just this low-level stress of impending doom, war, death, Nuclear Bombs, and dirty bombs...
I said nothing.
Then I thought, maybe it's just that we are mostly desensitized and need to laugh. Maybe if we don't laugh, we cry. We need a release.
I need to find a release.
Is it that noticeable?
My brother in Missouri called me yesterday and after a bit of a talk about life said to me, "Don't do anything illegal."
I couldn't believe he said that. Does he think I some sort of Travis Bickle about to pop? Did he think I would go vent by stealing? Or is saying, "Illegal" his Baptist/Christian way of saying, "Don't commit suicide."
I think maybe that's it.
And I have thought about, "IT".
