Double Life & Bored To Death = Love Your Hair

Jonathan Ames is a writer you are kinda scared to recommend to your friends. The Oprah version of Ames is David Sedaris. Sedaris buys condoms in bulk at Sam's Club. Oh heavens! Jonathan Ames gets attacked by transsexual dancers in Times Square. Look out.

On that note, I am writing to recommend his new book, The Double Life Is Twice As Good, the new Ames written HBO show Bored To Death starring Jason Schwartzman and Zach Galafinakisloaklandgyros (trailer below) and, on a salon related note, a diagram of Ames-pattern-baldness.

Our Next Life

If Woody Allen, author of the paragraph below, didnt marry his daughter, he'd be hailed as an American genius. Note to self: do not marry any family members, adpoted or otherwise.

In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people's home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa-like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then Voila! You finish off as an orgasm!

I rest my case.

- Woody Allen

God Knows Your Lonely Soul

in a great wave of technological upgrades and neck slaps at Establishment Productions, we are in the process of transferring our library from DVDs on shelves to mp4/youtube-able files to share. Here is the short film music video for GOD KNOWS YOUR LONELY SOUL by UNKLE feat Richard Ashcroft from The Verve.

The film was made as part of the Slamdance Film Festival's $99 Specials where 9 filmmakers were given 99 days and $99 to make a film. This is what a long morning with a chill actress and filming during down time on corporate road trips can do for ya....big ups to Carly Flynn on the hair, make-up and overall on-the-set dopeness. Lafayette Street NYC apartment holler. PS: For some reason, the film starts at :15sec. ok, bye..........
