What's What

I'm sitting here listening to Bob Marley sing "Duppy Conqueror" and thinking about my ghosts, because that's what the song is all about, getting through your ghosts and being free to live your life.

I know what most of you are thinking and that's like what does this all have to do with this blog? It has such a happy title. 

Well for the most part it will be. I'll try to tell funny stories about my reality and the world etc. Basically though I'm just gong to write. I need to get back in the groove, I've let  it go for much too long. So please bare with me while me and my old friend get re-acquainted 

I decided to pay homage to my dad with the title. When I was little and we lived in Albuquerque, I used to get up early to watch Rocky and Bullwinkle with him; even if he was busy still getting his lunch or what ever together, he'd always stop what ever he was doing and he'd watch Mr.Peabody and Sherman with me. It's one of my favorite memories. 

My old man loved t.v. and movies. If he had a love affair outside his relationship with my mom it was movies and bicycling. I inherited that from him. I absolutely love movies. My dad would always discuss shows and movies with me. It was something that we shared. Which is probable why I want to make movies now. 

I know what some people are thinking, why now, why not years ago? Sometimes things don't always go as planned and I think everyone has dreams. I think your never too old to make you're dream a reality and wouldn't it be a mistake to never do it? I don't want to live with that nagging what if, what if for the rest of my life. I want to at least said I tried. 

Looking at the word tried all I can think is I really don't like the word try, any form of it really. Why? Because of a little three foot Jedi Master. I kid you not, what I think of when I see the word try is Yoda and I can here him clear as a bell in my ears, "Do or do not. There is no try." So I have to do.
