Scams have come to Facebook. They’ve already been there, but here’s a funny one. Read the part about the guy who pretended he was a girl, and got dudes to send naked photos of themselves, and then he tried to extort them by forcing the dudes to have sex with him. He’s busted for sexual assault of a child younger than 16… and has more charges. I guess some succumbed. link. Here’s what we should do, so this won’t ever happen. Everyone must have nude photos of themselves online. It’s a law. Embarrassment would end. Girls Gone Wild will be out of business. Celeb nude sites wouldn’t matter. Are you in?

Club Mumble Interview. That's a photo by Mr Ben Clark. Yeah it's been used before in Juxtapoz, but not enough have seen it. Thanks Bob Kronbauer (Bob-san). Stormtrooper eating fries at gr/eats, I love it. Interviews get harder and harder. Do you tell the whole truth? Do people want to hear the bad stuff along with the good? Here's the link to the article on Clubmumble.com

BDK. That's Big Daddy Kane at the Scion Easy 10. It was great to meet him. He's one of my heroes among many. All of the work put in for two official Scion events! They should make a tour for the films. One observation, it's weird how some films are hallrakers. It shows, then next thing you know everyone leaves the spot mumbling. Then it's back in. That's the cool thing about this program, people...

BDK. That’s Big Daddy Kane at the Scion Easy 10. It was great to meet him. He’s one of my heroes among many. All of the work put in for two official Scion events! They should make a tour for the films. One observation, it’s weird how some films are hallrakers. It shows, then next thing you know everyone leaves the spot mumbling. Then it’s back in. That’s the cool thing about this program, people can leave in between. I asked BDK, who’s ironically named after Caine from Kung Fu, how about a feature length doc on him. He started laughing in his deep voice. A dapper Sheldon Candis and Scott Sanders. Sheldon’s the one who told me about Black Dynamite, and it’s ironic that after seeing it and blogging it, I meet the director, Scott Sanders. The funny thing is I saw him going up the escalator while I was going down. Remember both of these dudes names. Sheldon got into a the Directors Lab which is part of the LA Film Festival. It’s quite presitgious. The Dwelling helped! 300 seat theater in the new assign seating style. The new Landmark theaters at the Westside Pavillion are definitely state of the art. We passed out mags to the people in line. That’s Brian Tse on the right. They don’t give us enough guest list space! The film showed in a theater space that seated 300. Quite nice. The film looked great. Mom and Dad. Check out the vintage LRG jacket.
