The Director

You must never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

About Me

I'll be very surprised if anyone has read this entire message. In the film industry they say you only have 15 mins to capture an audience..s attention and since I have a reputation for being long winded I'll keep it as short as possible. I'm Lee a 31 year old communication graduate (I'm getting a second degree in creative writing). I go to U of Memphis and will probably get that second degree in May. I'm a cinematic genius and can't get enough of movies. I'm originally from Michigan (GO BLUE!) and also lived in San Diego, Cali for a min or two. I'm one of the most diverse human beings living in Memphis and that tends to be a problem here in this city, but what can I say you can't change everyone. I'm not a thug or a player, pimp, any of that. I'm too old and too well brought up to give a f*ck about doing sh*t I did 10 years ago when it was cool. Education is ridiculously important to me and I would hope that it's important to anyone that I meet, be it from Blackplanet or when I'm gettin them drunk at my bar. So don't roll up to me like you're Queen of all that surrounds you have a bit of respect for yourselves because trust me it goes a long way.Top 3 Things to Do for Your Neighborhood Bartender: 1.TIP YOUR BARTENDER!!!! 2.Never ask your bartender to make your drink "stout,strong" or anything else that makes you think you're getting more liquor if you didn't tip. 3.TIP YOUR EFFING BARTENDER!!!! (trust me it needs to be repeated) If you've made it this far let me know. Peaceout
