    Keystone 8mm Film Projector

    I, too, remember those old school films. I especially remember watching the occasional film frame turn to goo on the screen, and the jumpy pictures and garbled voice-overs. I, too, have a couple 8mm cameras and a projector. We can get together and start our own school film production company...

    Personal Libraries

    I generally use paper for bookmarks; except, of course, a couple metal ones I've purchased - one of which I haven't seen in months. I often use old photos that I took years ago. I even made a bookmark, once, from a 35mm contact strip of my favorite model and good friend, Cari. Sometimes...

    Motivate me!!!!

    You forgot "dashing from one room to the next for no apparent reason" and their "little bohemian sculptures on clay." Kishtu. When I'm in the sort of predicament you're in, I tell myself, "The only way to get the job done is to get up and do it." And then I try to avoid the projectile vomit...

    Just found this quote. . . . And I think we all agree. "Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure." - Sir Peregrine Worsthorne Lee

    I'm way too familiar with both "Garbage Grove" and Valencia . . . the doorway to Vasquez Rocks and home to Tragic Mountain. lol At least you don't live in the town next to me, City of Industry (Motto: Known for absolutely nothing.) Lee

    I just slide the dust jacket off and place it nearby whenever I'm reading. Write in a book? No, never. If I want to remember when I bought it, I tuck the receipt inside the book. (If I really abuse the ATM/check card, I'll place the receipt inside the book I feel is most important.) I...

    What are you listening to?

    I'm uh, viewing, actually. Animusic. Picking a favorite is very dificult for me, but if a gun was put to my head I'd choose Pipe Dream 2. Folowed closely by Cathedral Pictures. Lee

    Photography Make-up?

    Proof of what I've been saying since my days shooting portfolios: "The camera never lies" is a lie. :p Lee

    Seth Thomas Railroad Clocks

    Here are two of the railroad wall clocks in the offices where I work. The founder of the company got them from the Monrovia, California, railroad depot when it closed many years ago. The depot is still across Myrtle Avenue from the original location of the company. Unfortunately, the station has...

    Vocabulary Today

    C-c-courage! This one struck me. In particular, because of the way my brother uses the word, "Ignorant." I've told him a number of times that ignorant means unknowing, yet he continues using it as meaning, "being a jerk." "The guy cut me off, so I honked, and he got ignorant and flipped me...
