January 17, 1942 – June 3, 2016

He was always Muhammed Ali. He dropped Cassius before I was born. He was ALWAYS on TV…boxing or talking about boxing….

 

A favorite schoolyard game as kids was repeating Ali’s toasts/ raps…

“float like a butterfly sting like a bee you can’t hit what you can’t see….”

“I’m the greatest, I can’t be beat, fight with me and you’ll get a ringside seat”

“this is no jive. The fight will end in five.”

RAIN: A FAN FILM ABOUT STORM

I just got to see THIS on the big screen at the Alamo Village theater in Austin Texas:

Uhh No its not “my” film (don’t I wish). I had a very minor part on the crew, a volunteer boom mike operator. But it was time well spent to be a part of something THIS ambitious!

Theres some many dreamers and talkers who BS endlessly about what they’ll do “someday”. And theres people like Maya Glick who organized a Kickstarter campaign to get funding and found Zane Rutledge and Jeff Stolhand to get in there and make it happen!

And DID they make it happen! Amazing quality shooting and CGI effects! And Kick a– acting from Maya and the rest of the cast!

3 Little Pigs from TALES FROM THE CRYPT

How have I never seen this?

An animated episode of Tales from The Crypt. I loved reprints of EC Comics and I really liked the HBO show.

I never knew they made an animated episode. They made a G ( or PG) cartoon version of the show for Saturday mornings, Tales from the Cryptkeeper. I wonder if that same animation company made the ” pigs ” episode. That would seem to make sense ” hey guys- enough of the safe kiddie stuff, lets do something really sick”
