Random Notes, Thoughts, Ramblings...
Current mood: artistic

First off, "we" (read not me) named the cat... we named him Capone, because he seemed to feel like he was the boss of the house, and we didn't want to ruin his dreams... we've been insulting him with "fatass" for like 2 years now... So please, just let him think he's tough...

I shaved my head... no the half-jew didn't jump sides and go neo-nazi... it's actually called male-pattern baldness, and this is the best way to combat it... make all of the hairs harder to see, so it's tougher to notice the missing ones... So bye-bye long haired hippie, hello old guy w/ grey hair at the show remembering when the band was live on stage and not just a holgram... look, it's this or I get a wig... and don't tell me I won't go Bozo The Clown on a wig...

Also, I might be participating in a certain weekly web-spot for Blow It Up T.V.  The details haven't been ironed out yet, but it's set to be a comedy gig, so keep an eye, I'll get links out once we do the first set.

One last thing, I want to send a HUGE shout-out to my buddy Paul Venier at www.comedytornado.com I did the basic layout for that site with Paulie in 2000 or so, and he's changed it some, but it's still the same old sight, just brought into the new with some state-of-the-art web work recently... totally amazing to see... If you get a chance, see him live - he's the show to catch!

That's it for today folks...

What Up's to: GBR, Blow it Up TV, Big Lou, DJ Ces, Hellfighta, SecExec and da rest of the crew....
(I need some friends with actual names like Josh and Joey.... heheheh)

Is it news if no on reads it? Who Cares, It’s The News!
Current mood: curious

Here's the latest goings on...

I found out that I can actually fix computers, and if you do it right the first time, people come back with their friends computers... it's all really strange stuff...

So... Fizzle Freak Multimedia is going to cover my computer repair/upgrade/maintain/build/install/etc... operations, as well as anything I do on a more creative side - Website Design, anything related to the entertainment industry, etc... We're already set with support deals with Blow It Up T. V. and G.B.R. Records to handle support and upgrades for their systems.  We're currently working out similar deals with independant vendors to handle their support on a regular basis.  I say all this because I want people to realize that FFM is something I'm trying to take very seriously and get it off the ground and create a real customer-focused computer support team, while getting to experiment with some of the latest audio and video technologies with our clients.   

Please note that Fizzle Freak Productions, was a company that once actually did exist on paper was disolved on paper in 2002, the only assets were the copyrights to two screenplays, the masters for the screenplays were destroyed and all duplicates were ordered destroyed at the same time.  Fizzle Freak Productions is no longer doing business and should not be considered attacted to this venture in any way.

This doesn't mean the kidding around ends... it just means for once I have what I think is a viable goal... again, that's odd...

Again, much love to Hellfighta and the crew at Blow It Up T. V. for helping me get this whole thing spinning... Coming in 2008 The Minnow and The Hellfighta duke it out in a rap battle... Look for it people!

PS - Not to spoil it, but I got my ass kicked in that battle in 22.2 seconds... we think it's a new record for making a white-man cry in a battle... gotta look at your positives...

Fizzle Freak Dies and Lives all at the same time... it’s a crazy world...
Current mood: adventurous

Well, it's a sad yet happy day... as of today I officially decided that Fizzle Freak Productions would no longer be doing any business (of course it really hadn't done anything except be the copyright holder of most of my writing for years now, but still me and that so-called company go a ways back... we even had employees at one time you know... but I digress)... anyways I've decided I'm going to persue different ventures, as my recent going's on in life have kind of shown me a little nitche where I could fit. 

With that said, I'm pleased to announce the beginning of the formation of Fizzle Freak Multimedia Serivces... (I like the Fizzle Freak name, lay off... lol)... FFMS is being formed to help me better organize my current freelance efforts in PC repair, as well as in multimedia system creation, support and upgrade to video/audio editing hardware.  Our primary focus will be on entertaiment creation through entertainment enjoyment in regards to PC's and hardware.  We will also be handling standard tech support calls on a set fee schedule.  In the beginning this is going to be a slow operation to get off the ground as I'd like to see one of these Fizzle Freak companies not end up just falling off into total obscurity.  But seeing as we've had a few clients tossed our way (Mad thanks to Blow It Up TV, our first and still most loyal clients, for pushing me a little towards making something happen) I figured I'd toss a name on it and see what happens. 

Cross your fingers I don't end up blowing up George Lucas' computer while he's working on the next Star Wars or something...

Peace.

Tired...

Life and stress tend to eat away at you... the only question is which one is going to win the race to end you. 

Here's to hoping that a bright wind will change everything... because if it stays the same, then I'll have made no progress. 

Who am I kidding, nothing changes.

Peace.

Moving... Changes... Sweating... Ugg...
Current mood: exhausted

Let me say this... moving is a pain in the ass... plain and simple... if anyone ever asks you to help them move, run the other direction... unless that person is me, as I could have used some help this weekend... but I'm blogging from the new place now known as Command Center Delta... you must know the secret song to gain access. 

So I fell off the grid for a few days there, attempting to move all of our belonings a whole three miles up the road, and we've still got a few things left to move before it's all over.  But never fear my little darlings, I will be able to update more often now...

Another month or so and things might almost be back to normal around here... it's already starting to feel a little lighter...

I've taken to working on Macs lately, so if anyone needs any help with Mac problems I might be able to help...

The BT Release group has started kicking out some really rare Phish shows from the 80's... 1st performances of your favorites, early renditions of songs that you know and love... really neat stuff, check it out if you get a chance.

And a final message of peace before I try and rest up for tomorrow's fun:  Remember, if you take drugs and see smurfs you just need to remember the following:  They are alive and they taste just like blueberries if you eat them.

Peace, Love, Harmony, Charity (The names of my favorites at the local strip club, plus a closeout line boo-yah)...

A bit of sad news, site updates, and Catch Larson Live!
Current mood: crunk

The site that published my last story has sent us notice that they will be shutting down.  "Intersection" will still be availble to read via the address I listed in the previous post, however they will not be adding any new material.  I would like to thank the folks at Darkend Dreams Press for giving the story a shot in the wild for a while...  That's the sad news...

Also, over the next day or so I'll be re-vamping this site so that I can cross-publish anything new I write between here and writerscafe.org, plus it just looked ugly to me.

And catch me live... that's right folks you can catch me live and in person... at least if you live in/want to travel to the Berks County area.  I have semi-recurring shows Friday nights at Goodfella's Bar in Robesonia, and Friday nights in the Bar at Berks Lanes, and Sunday Late-Nights at the bowling center in Berks Lanes as part of their Glow Bowling.  Be sure to check here for public dates I'm appearing at, I'll try and keep a calendar active for everyone.  Remember, if you don't come out you're just hurting my wife's feelings because she thinks it's her hideous appearance that's been driving people away.

I'm off to continue the site updates, as always remember - If you see something in the road that may be a pedestrian, SPEED UP... if they can't run that's their problem... you'll be miles up the road before the police get there, let them deal with the mess, that's what they're trained for.

And don't foget, sex with cats is just plain wrong... now turkeys on the other hand, that's a different story.

Peace, Love, Harmony and The Squirts!

And Larson Gets Published... well sorta....
Current mood: Between Happy and Go Lucky

Hey guys, one of my older pieces that I dusted off recently is being published in a new E-Zine dedicated to primarily the horror/supernatural types of writing.  They're still getting up and running, but today I got a look at how the site will look... You guys should be able to leave comments, there is also a photo and a brief bio posted with the writing. 

If anyone wants to take an early peak, here's the site address: http://throughthelookingglasswebzine.wordpress.com/

If anyone wants to look at something else, go here:
Hell, Straight to hell... you people are supposed to be my friends damnit!

Now that I've gotten that off my chest, seriously, go read, enjoy... And leave nice feedback while your there too... I haven't been a total shithead to EVERYONE that reads this blog.  Just most of you... and I think it's time you guys became the bigger men/women and  just.... oh what the hell am I talking about... go read the story, so I can build an audience, so I can write something someone will pay me for, so I can buy a big house and forget all the little people... I mean so I can share with those around me and live a better life...

Peace, Love, Harmony, Charity, Chastity... yeah, I did 'em....OOOOHHHH....

Hey look, I can mess with pictures...
Current mood: Saucey

Hey guys, I've been playing with Photoshop for a while, if you check out my photos there's a category called "Different Perceptions" - it's just filled with my photo edits for people to look at... ponder over, and then wonder why they spent the 30 seconds looking...

Also, my main page has a little WritersCafe.org thingie on it that will update when I post stories there... keep an eye on it... plus it spins 'round and 'round so it'll entertain the stoners in the crowd...

So, for the slightly deaf: NEW PICTURE THING HAPPENING, READ STUFF AT WRITERSCAFE.ORG!!!

And will someone please read this to the blind, I think they're starting to feel left out...

L to the Minnow

PS - In case you missed it in the news, retarded people around the world are sueing Brittany Spears, K-Fed, and Paris Hilton for giving them a bad name.  A spokesperson for the three was quoted as saying "Hey, retarded people are WAY smarter than these three...".  And yes I used the word retarded, if that offends you, please go outside and smack your face off of tree for three hours... if after that you're still standing, do it again.  It's a word, get over it.

Stranger than fiction...
Current mood: Weekapaug Groovin’

Stranger than fiction is the reality we currently live in and accept as normal.

We live in a world where the customer is no longer right, he's an ass who's taking up your precious break time.

We live in a world where it's possible to become famous for being a retard who married a retard and who ended up doing retarding things on TV.  - To the actually retarded, I apologize I know you guys have more class than those people.

If the odds are right, at this exact moment, somewhere someone is getting shot, while driving, thus having an accident, later they'll find out he was a smoker and would have died from lung cancer anyway, so the shooting was legit.

Right now somewhere in West Virginia someone is sleeping with their cousin.  Think about it.

Thousands of American kids need a home and a safe place to say, and all of the RICH people in this country are out adopting little African kids... instead of saving AMERICAN kids from the system.  Makes sense.

Somewhere, driving down the road right now is an old man who can't see and doesn't realize his headlights are off...

Priests have a 3-strike rule for sexual abuse against boys... is the Catholic Church seriously taking it's cues from Major Leauge Baseball, and if so, when does Babe Ruth get Saint status?

The Pope was a Nazi... should we be worried that he and Mel Gibson keep talking about a Final Solution that will make the Catholics and Jews "Friends"?

They have contests to get record deals, comedy deals, all kinds of deals... didn't you used to have to be talented and work your way to the top to be the best in the business?  I hope George Carlin walks out on stage and takes a huge shit at the next Last Comic Standing, of course that's after the surviving members of Lynyrd Skynyrd execute the entire staff of American Idol.  Except Ryan Seacrest... that little bastard is mine...

We live in a world where people wait in lines for over 3 days to buy a VIDEO GAME SYSTEM!!! I'm a geek, but 3 days guys that's just fucking nuts.  If I'm waiting for three days for a video game system, they better have a massuse and a "happy ending" waiting at the end of that freaking line.

Basically folks, we live in a fucked up world... the trick is to remember that.  Everything you think should be right and good in the world is totally fucked up.  Now that you know that I think you'll be better prepared to go about your day to day business.  If not, then you deserve to be hit by that bus you didn't see... Look for the pitfalls, jump over them and go on to great things... or be me and dive into every pitfall just to see how far down it goes... Your choice... I'm just here to watch everything fall apart... along for the show so to say...

Remember - If you're feeling down and blue, run down the street naked... at very least you'll scare the shit out of your neighbors, plus be a local celeb for a while... if you're really brave, go to the mall naked... when someone points it out, tell them THEIR the crazy one... be insistent, trust me it'll screw with them... at some point they'll re-think their stance... hell they may even get naked too... you could start a trend... If you do, remember where you got the idea, and take pictures!

What the hell happened to the site?!

Wow, that's a different look... more changes to come, stay tuned... I don't know about the color scheme yet... but I like purple, then again, I like Kevin Spacey too and I didn't fill the site with pictures of him... but that's because I think that type of behaviour was specifically banned in the restraining order... I don't remember...

But I remember you Kevin... and that one amazing night... don't worry, I didn't tell my wife "everything"...
