"In Vino Veritas" - Pliny The Elder a.k.a. Gaius Plinius Secundus, (23 AD – August 24, 79 AD), -And then there is.. ART. Anybody who know me, also knows that I love art. Below is the work of the mother of a dear friend of mine in Italy. Her name is Patricia Ann Williams, and her web site addy is: www.patriciaannwilliams.comSILENCE. SOLITUDE. RAREFIED ATMOSPHERES. FINISHED SPACES. RESTLESS LIGHT. THE WORKS OF PATRICIA ANN WILLIAMS TRAVEL ALL THE ROADS THAT LEAD TO METAPHYSICAL PAINTING…BUT IT IS A VERY PERSONAL METAPHYSICS, PRIVATE, EXPLICIT, WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL INTROSPECTIONS, AND MAGIC EXCURSIONS IN THE INTANGIBLE, WITH TENDER SYMBOLS THAT WINK AT THE DIVINE… AND LIGHT BECOMES THE PRIME AGENT IN THESE ESISTENZIAL FLASH BACKS...[IMG]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q160/superch udo_photos/mans45.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i135.photobucket.com/ albums/q160/superchudo_photos/mans28.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i1 35.photobucket.com/albums/q160/superchudo_photos/mans64.jpg[ /IMG][IMG]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q160/superchudo _photos/mans57.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i135.photobucket.com/alb ums/q160/superchudo_photos/mans34.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i135. photobucket.com/albums/q160/superchudo_photos/mans27.jpg[/IM G][IMG]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q160/superchudo_ph otos/mans47.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums /q160/superchudo_photos/mans40.jpg[/IMG]Perhaps I'm interested in a little bit of this stuff they call Eternal Love. Now tell me... isn't this just totally AWESOME???!!!What else am I interested in??? Hmmm... I suppose I'm mostly interested in meeting other interesting people. Besides that, I'm also interested in music, theatre, film, acting, exercise, exploring, hiking, bicycling, power walks, good food (especially Italian), travelling, cold guinness beer, fine red wine, and women. Ah... yes... women. In my opinion, women... without a doubt... are the greatest of all God's creations. I adored and respected my Mother, and I adore and respect my three sisters... so I suppose that is the foundation of my adoration and respect of women. I also have daughters, and I love them dearly. There really is much too long of a list to display all that interests me... or perhaps I should say... us... because I have no less than seven personalities. There were once eight, but I dumped one of them in a raging river (see photos) last year. LOL JK ;-) Well, all of this talking does rather cause me to wonder if indeed... "The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom". Do you think it's true??? I'm really interested in your opinion on that, because I have certainly formulated my own :-)
Wow... what a loaded question!!! I've already met a lot of cool people, but some (and I repeat... some) of the people I'd still like to meet are: Nelson Mandela, Sophia Loren, Vin Diesel, Brigette Bardot, William Shatner, Alizee, Russell Crowe, Mick Jagger, Calista Flockhart, Steven Tyler, Angelina Jolie, Johnny Depp, Britney Murphy, Sylvester Stallone, Leonard Nemoy, Rosa Parks, Robin Williams, Penelope Cruz, Robert Plant, Serena, George Lopez, Pamela Anderson, Al Pacino, Aishwarya Rai, Nicolas Cage, Adriana Karembeu, Robert DeNiro, Apnea, Clint Eastwood, Caprise Bourret, Keifer Sutherland, Uma Thurman, Wesley Snipes, Aria Giovanni, John Travolta, Cameron Diaz, Bill Cosby, and Madonna. Besides them, there is also the list that will have to wait until I 'break on through to the other side'. Namely: James Dean, Ghandi, Martin Luther King Jr., Elvis, Jesus, John Lennon, J.F.K., Albert Einstein, Amelia Earhart, George Harrison, Madre Teresa di Calcutta, Keith Moon, Marilyn Monroe, James Douglas Morrison, and Shakespeare. I suppose I could go on... Who knows... perhaps I'll even meet some extremely cool people right here on this site... people who will one day go far beyond their mere 'fifteen minutes of fame'. I know you're here... so let's hook up!!!HINT: I get a lot of 'friend requests', but only accept the ones who somehow connect with me on one level or another. So please understand and respect the fact that I will not accept a 'friend request' from a person who doesn't write to me, telling me who they are and why they are choosing to be friends with me. That is what I do when I send a 'friend request', so that is what I expect in return. Peace out... eS
There's only one person who will ever understand what this song really means...

Gimme that Rock n Roll music Baby!!! I'm from the 'old school', which means The Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Beatles, The Who, Lynrd Skynrd, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Blue Oyster Cult, Bad Company, The Animals, Cream, Black Sabbath, The Guess Who, Credence Clearwater Revival, The Grateful Dead, Queen, Joe Cocker, Pink Floyd, Jefferson Airplane, Deep Purple, Eric Clapton (post Cream), B.B.King, Elivs (the old stuff), Steppenwolf, Alice Cooper, Iron Butterfly, The Eagles... and many others. However, at the very top of my list absolutely has to be The Doors. Jim Morrison was unquestionably one of the greatest songwriters and poets of the twentieth century. Far ahead of his time and a true visionary. I basically like all music, with a few exceptions (which I'll refrain from mentioning). I also dig Tiger Army, Shane McGowan, Alanis Morissette, Mustard Plug, (irr) Rev. Horton Heat, some punk, some psychobilly, some rockabilly, almost all jazz, some trance, a little bit of hip hop, some latino, nearly all reggae, some pop, some country, most blues, classical (when I run or write), and some of the new stuff that's coming out of Eastern Europe... such as my personal friend Serge. If you want to hear Russia's greatest new singing sensation, then click on his photo on my 'myspace' and follow the links to hear his music. He's a talented musician, song writer, composer, and singer who is rising very fast on the charts. I guarantee you won't be disappointed!!! ;-) And then of course there's my good friend Adama. If you want something fresh... check out her sound. It's hot! ... and so is she ;-)

Credence Clearwater Revival... John & Tom Fogerty, along with Stu Cook and Doug Clifford... Wow!!!
I thought I'd already filled this out, but it must have been lost in the shuffle somehow, so I'll do it again. Briefly: I like movies... My very favorite would have to be 'What Dreams May Come', but there's a reason for that and if we're ever close enough... maybe i'll even tell you what it is. Ah... there are so many others... 'The Wizard of Oz', 'Fight Club', 'Vanilla Sky', 'Field of Dreams', 'Water Boy', 'Army of Darkness', 'My Girl', 'R.H.P.S.', 'Highlander', 'Walk In The Clouds', 'The Omen', 'Godfather (series)', 'Dead Poets Society', 'Queen of the Damned', 'Breakfast at Tiffany's', '12 Monkeys', 'White Chicks', 'U-Turn', 'The Exorcist', 'Bugsy', 'Dracula', 'Napoleon Dynamite', 'Natural Born Killers', 'Little Shop of Horrors', 'Frequency', 'Interview with a Vampire', 'Big Fish', 'Kalifornia', 'Pulp Fiction', 'Office Space', 'Con Air', 'Moulin Rouge', 'The Notebook' (which is my ultimate fav love story), 'Romeo & Juliet', 'Face Off', 'Second Hand Lions', Rebel Without a Cause', '50 First Dates', 'Training Day', 'Girl, Interrupted', 'Gone With The Wind', 'The Color Purple', 'Road to Perdition', 'Dog Day Afternoon', 'Meet the Parents', 'The Wall', 'Meet the Fockers', 'The Wedding Singer', 'Butterfly Effect', 'The Recruit', The 13th Floor', 'Cinderella Man', 'Jar Head'... The list really is quite endless. I'm very, very interested in Horror Films, Independent Films, and Foreign Films. One of my dreams (that I shall certainly see come to fruition in the not too distant future) is to write and produce some indie films. To me, that would be the ultimate way to spend my time and creative energies...

Below is the trailer/teaser for 'Prize Of The Pacific'. I'll send out a bulletin as soon as the film is released.
.. width="425" height="350" ..And here we have some pre-productioun interviews for the same film... 'Prize Of The Pacific'. As a note of disclaimer, please don't think (from what i say in the interview) that I advocate the use of drugs, because I don't. Sure, there was a time in my life when I partied. But then again, i'm a product of the sixties & seventies. At least I'm going to lie and say that I never inhaled ;-) In any case, I am referring to the past... not the present. I'd also like to say that during the filming of P.O.P., I weighed a whopping 115.7 kg, but I'm now back down to 99.3 kg. Still not at my goal weight, but getting there fast! ;-).. width="425" height="350" ..
And here is the Trailer/Teaser for my last film, which is called, 'PocaHauntUs'. Enjoy...

Add to My Profile | More VideosHere'a a short film 'CLOSET MONSTER' that my best friend eM and I did together in March of 2007. I hope you like it.
I don't really watch a lot of television, but when I do, it's either a reality show, C.S.I., or Letterman. Believe it or not, I've actually applied for Survivor eight (that's right... 8!!!) times, and they still haven't called me. Do you think they're scared??? I do ;-)SEMPER FI.. width="425" height="350" .. YEAH... THAT'D BE ME... RIGHT SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS KOREAN COMMERCIAL... AS THE TAILOR FOR THE HOTTEST KOREAN ACTRESS IN... WELL, IN KOREA!!! JEON JI-HYUN... WHO WILL SOON BE MAKING HER (AMERICAN) FILM DEBUT RIGHT HERE IN GOOD OL' HOLLYWOOD!!!
Hmmm... Where do I begin??? Books (whether novels, novellas, or poetry)are to the mind, what food is to the body. When I stopped counting (a very long time ago), I'd read almost three thousand books... and that isn't counting the ones I read as a kid!!! Some of my fav writers are: Leo Tolstoi, Aldous Huxley, Walt Whitman, James Michener, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Stephen King, Ernest Hemingway, Andy Warhol, Emily Dickinson, James Clavell, Truman Capote, Edgar Allen Poe, Allen Ginsberg, Oscar Wilde, Friedrich Nietzshe, and Jack Kourac. Once again, I could go on... and on... and on...
This is a really tough one, but aside from my parents, I think that anybody who encourages and/or promotes peace is my hero... along with most non-conformists, and just about anybody who does his or her own thing without tripping on what anybody else thinks about it. Be unique... be an individual... and simply be true to yourself... and you too will be a hero.
