Morning Sleep

MELBOURNE INDEPENDENT FILM MAKERS FESTIVAL

This friday and saturday is going to be the Melbourne Independent Film Makers Festival. I don't have to work so I'm going to drop by both days and check out the talent. I' m also planning to carry with me several copies of the synopsis for two of my complete screenplays. I'm not on a mission to get noticed, but you never know where fate might strike. I was also thinking about taking several copies of the two scripts, just in case some big shot with connections says, "Let me have it."

Has any unknown screenwriter ever had any luck at a film festival. It can't hurt to take my synopsis and scripts. From what I've read there is going to be several guys who have plenty of experience in the industry. Maybe I'll tackle them to the floor and slip them the synopsis with my contact info. What soda pop should I spill on them to get noticed. Should I tuck in my shirt or be myself and where my black t-shirt with the Statue of LIberty with bombs and oil refineries next to it.

If any one out there has ever scored with connections at a film festival go ahead and share your story. Maybe I should show up pulling a donkey just to celebrate the democrats recent victory. Are you telling me I won't get noticed. Of course I will.

I got it, during the question and answer show I'm going to make paper airplanes out of my synopsis and launch them at the guys sitting at the round table. I'll yell, "JIM MORRISON!" If I don't post another blog on this site it will be because I was registered into Circles Of Care, a mental institute. It's just that when a screenwriter wants it so bad, he or she will go to great lengths. 

AMERICAN VOTERS PREVAIL!!

After Kerry's defeat I couldn't help but fall into despair. I said f-uk following politics; the Bush regime has this shit on overdrive and my voice can't be effective. A month later I came across the radio station AIRAMERICA. The beacon was in motion. The news began to air the chaos in Iraq. I began to follow politics again. I attended protests, flew to D.C. twice to protest W's illegal war. In one of the protests in D.C. there was over three-hundred thousand Americans exercising their dissent against the Iraq war.

And now, the democrats win twice as many seats as they needed to gain control of Congress. The Senate is still up in the air. I called my friends, made my roomate register to vote, and informed others to vote democrat across the board. So, last night at one in-the-morning, I went to bed with a positive belief in our democracy. This morning the news aired the greates news ever: the dems DESTROY the neo-con-republicans and take over Congress.

Ladies and gentlemen, the top two issues for Nanci Pelosi, who I think is a super-rad lady, are Iraq and accountability; that's why Rumsfeld was forced to resign. It wasn't for the troops. It's because the dems are going to have hearings aboutt the lies of pre-Iraq and Rumsfeld was going to be chewed up on tv. Now that he's no longer in power, the investigations will have to target others.

Still, voters went out and voted to fix what Bush has done to America. Just check out his face from today's press conference. The man is going to hit the bottle again to deal with the train that's coming from the DEMOCRATS!
