Back in 2007 I wrote three 1950s parody short films. I made two of them, and did not complete the third. Every few years I think about finally shooting the last one, but it has always fallen apart. Recently I’ve thought about trying again, we shall see. However, this is the farthest it has gotten so far.

They Came From The Stars
This is from the first time my short film ‘They Came from the Stars’ was shown on local TV by the local late night horror host Ned the Dead. After this aired I ended up meeting the producers of the show at local film festival. They ended up airing the short again later on another episode.

I Was A Teenage Wolfman
This short film was shot as a film school project where students pitched their story and students voted which project they wanted to work on and then were assigned to those projects. I was forced to have another student rewrite it. He didn’t mangle it, but I think it lost some of it’s me-isms. Some scenes remained mostly unchanged, like the opening scene. I really had to fight to get him to include the dad coming out of nowhere at the end (he ended up playing the dad, as he was an older fellow going back to school). Youtube back in 2010 didn’t have great compression, but that is what we had to squeeze it down to, losing a lot of resolution. My only extant copies were compressed for youtube, but I just found a copy that was a little less shitty than the original upload.
That was so fucking cool, I saw you!
I like the actor yelling “action”.
Goood stuff, CPRM.
This, this is certainly not what I was expecting. And I loved it! In several different ways.
My Bigfoot-walking is very different. More a nimble, short-fry shuffle.
Also, gotta say.. that’s the gayest punching I’ve ever seen. I strongly approve.
I didn’t pay for this. Don’t bill me!
Fuck me… some asshole has been riding a dirt bike around the one-way streets in my neighborhood all day, around and around, every day.

Oh, it’s one of the junkies from across the street. I am shocked.
If ya shot him in the throat, that violence’d be speech, yeah?
If only I had some accomplice to distract the cops like that punk did.
It’s good our group has so many artistic types. A Glibertarians YouTube channel could be successful.
If you start by wanting to teach a lesson, you get a sermon instead of a story. That’s the biggest pitfall, I think.
Good storytelling and comedy happens almost by accident.

It’s gotten complicated.
Cnan is on the hunt with
hold up
Who the fuck is Cnan?
When Cnan came into reckoning with Lian like twenty pages ago, which was two books and eight hundred pages into this one, I thought Lian and Cnan were both Chinese. Apparently Cnan isn’t Lian’s ethnicity.
What the fuck is Cnan?
I gave up on Stephenson after The Baroque Cycle. Get to the point, already.
I should, maybe, give him another shot.
His first novel was “Zodiac”, it was short and got to the point. It also was humorous and had several salient points that I adopted. One being how to survive on a bicycle- Don’t assume that you can’t be seen. Rather assume there is a well-publicized cash bounty for the first driver who runs you over and ride accordingly.
So many act as though they are indestructable and have infinite right of way.
Wait, Isn’t Lian a diminutive for Julian?

Dana Andrews said prunes gave him the runes, but passing them used lots of skill.
I Was A Teenage Wolf-Man was inspired by I Was A Teenage Werewolf starring a young Michael Landon

Now do visible tattoos, Mr Sack o Shit.
Tattoos should be removed with a cheese grater.
It doesn’t matter if they’re visible, or if you’re not part of the military.
I was going to apologise for that level of cruelty.
It’s excessive. the ink itself is already a punishment for the bad decision, but it still shouldn’t be visible.
No one needs 60 colors of nail polish.
soldiers stationed in the Arctic climates of Alaska where shaving can pose a medical hazard in the extreme cold will be affected by the change
I was stationed in Alaska. We had shave checks in the middle of winter. We could get away with some stubble in the field – never a beard.
Wassup, my Glibs?
Have a great day, unless you’re a bot…then it doesn’t really matter.

YouTube seems to have decided that I am a bot.
No, I do not sign in you googly piece of shit computer.
Well, that’s odd. 🤷🏼♀️
What it is is frustrating. If you’re going to cut me off from your platform, accuse me of something I’ve actually done.
I am not a bot. I am a figment of your imagination.

Can’t wait to find out if this guy was going too fast.
Nobody should drive that fast.
Mornin’
Good morning, DEG, Ted’S., Sean, Roat, and U!
Morning.
I am apparently very cranky this morning.
How are things with you?
I am…not cranky. So far, so good. This is my boss’s remote work day, so at worst he’ll get me on the phone to complain about last night’s Board meeting. Just part of “all other duties as assigned” for me.
I’m sorry you’re cranky. 😟 I hope the day gets better.
I’m sitting here asking “What is it I actually want to do?”
The worst part of it is I’m drawing a blank.
Sleep?
Not that you can right now, but at least you’d have identified something you’d LIKE to do.
No, I did fine with sleep. I think I want to write something but I’ve got a bit of a creative dry spell.
Mornin’ all.
Just finished my colonoscopy prep. Blech. Arrive at surgicenter @ 10, procedure at 11. Got maybe 2 hours of sleep last night 🙁
Wish me luck ;-\
may your anus be welcoming
💩
Good luck.
Having been through that recently, I empathize! I hope you get a clean bill of health and a nice long reprieve from needing another!
I’m 74, I’ve already decided this is the last one. Barring something nasty being found ;-\
🎶I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well 🎶
I have mine Friday morning.
Like you, I dont expect to sleep much prior.
Morning to all Glibs, lurkers included, wherever you are.
Another nice day in preparation of Sunday’s event. Weather forecast in promising a nice day
Good morning, 4(20)! I’m sorry I can’t make it to HH this year, but I hope you all have a wonderful day!
The same to you and everybody else here! Soft grey morning here down in suburban Philly.
Wah… Wah…

Oh My Gosh! You SELL your business and suddenly the guy who Bought it is acting like they Own the Place?
Inconceivable!
Still mad he no longer has authority to ban whole countries from buying his ice cream?
I asked ChatGPT for some flavors
Flower Power Sour Hour

Mix-ins: Sour gummy daisies, chia seeds, and kale chips (soggy)
Swirls: Vinegar-honey drizzle (meant to be “healing,” but it’s just unpleasant)
Concept: Represents the bitterness behind the peace-and-love mask.

And
🤮🤮 for asking ChatGPT
I get to inflict my political views on everyone else.
The rest of you not only don’t get to inflict your views on people, you’re not even allowed to be apolitical.
Markets, how do they work?
Now instead of reliving the 70s we get to relive the 80s!

We do seem to be rushing through the worst of the 70s at light speed. The 80s might be fun to relive except the crime was even worse.
I know. Plus the mullet.
Will we at least get the good drugs?
