Eat This, Mystery Man!OK, so Tom Spence accuses me of ordering him to write for this blog. Then he does so and includes me in the category of the talented. I'm even mentioned in the same sentence as Mozart, one of the greatest musical geniuses the world has even seen or heard. Of course, to put it in context Tom did write, "they are the talented, from Mozart to Jester Jeeves." In other words, if we consider the talent spectrum, Mozart is at one end and Jester Jeeves is at the other. Oh---I get it now, Tom is saying that I am talented, but just barely. Well, with this post, I hope to make him eat those words. I mean just look at the Rise and Shine image above, which by the way is not meant to offend anyone, be they Baptist, Bread Boy, or otherwise. If that's not a stroke of evil genius I don't what is.
Anyway, I don't make this stuff up---I just call 'em like I see 'em. And what I saw was a church signboard around Easter time. As I drove by, the Pillsbury Dough Boy jumped out of that inspirational dimension and into my head. I felt that I owed it to the world to share my vision of doughy divinity. Armed with my meager talent, digital camera, and minuscule Photoshop skills, I crafted this image from my imagined inspiration. Hopefully no Parkview Baptist Church-goers or Pillsbury corporate lawyers are among the millions of Jeev Jago Studios' fans.
Postmodern Progess
After our brush with the vicious Vista memory monopolizer on Tom's laptop we transfered our Vegas video editing to my old but operational desktop running on the comparatively expeditious XP. Frame by digital frame, Postmodern Times is coming together in a way that
can only be described as miraculous---or amazing, anomalous, astonishing, astounding, awesome, extraordinary, fabulous, fantasmo, far out, freakish, gas (?), heavy (?), incredible, inexplicable, magical, marvelous, monstrous, numinous, phenomenal, preternatural, prodigious, spectacular, staggering, strange, stupefying, stupendous, superhuman, superior, supermundane, supernatural, supranatural, thaumaturgic, the utmost, too much, unaccountable, unbelievable, unearthly, unimaginable, unreal, wonderworking, or wondrous.
Well, not really, but Tom and I are very excited about our progress. And now there's even the possibility of premiering Postmodern Times at a summer festival in Florida next month!

This sort of thing is exactly what the internet is all about. Honest, verbose, witty, creative, humorous, and full of subterfuge and questionable identities. Let's all stay anonymous here. All we can hope to be is part of a long list of names, anyway. thank you very much for your continued contributions to cyber literature.
