It's been fun, the past 6 weeks. The weather went from too hot to too cold and I've still got a Sable sitting in the barn, unpainted. To say that I've not had time to work on the blog would be an understatement.
Still working on my short story series, doing updates on "Going Dutch, Trials of a Wage Slave" and working on the video script for my public service announcement.
Watching the "Occupy Wall Street" movement has been fun. What took them so long to realize that we have all been getting ripped off for the past 40 years. I could go into the history of how our social structure has been tuned to benefit certain parties, but that's a subject for another time.
Will update the blog when the video is up on YouTube.

Self-Defeating Behaviour
Ever wonder how much would get done, if you could just ignore all the distractions in life?
People get caught up in issues, causes, current events, most of the time without having the slightest chance of being able to impact these situations. I'm guilty of this more than most people. Other people go on about their lives, I try to 'help', only to step into the deep manure.
Just spent the past couple of days sniping back and forth with a SAG supporter. I think that's what they are, they have one of those anonymous blog poster names.
End result, I'll go back to spending more time on my novel and blogs.
The SAG people will learn the hard way about contract negotiations in this day and age. That's how I did it. Fell on my face more than a few times, didn't enjoy the pain.
It's one of the reasons that I wrote "Going Dutch, Trials of a Wage Slave". Wanted to point out my errors in life, give people a few laughs and hopefully, keep them from making my mistakes.
People don't mind the laughs, but lessons? They usually have to learn those on their own.
Hitting the pavement can hurt. Hard on the face, too.
Bring your own band-aids.

Going Dutch, Trials of a Wage Slave
I’m getting ready to launch another blog. Like I need more work.
This one will focus on my book, “Going Dutch, Trials of a Wage Slave”.
It will be a couple of days before I launch. Working out the blog name, deciding the layout and contents, etc.
Have been raising hell on Nikki Finke’s blog:

The SAG/AMPTP thing is nothing short of a fiasco. Time to shut Hollywood down until the people who do the work get paid for their efforts.
This country has been allowed to sink into a wage slave mentality. Too many people think that they don't have any say in their work conditions. They are too scared to speak out, afraid to lose their jobs.
Instead, they are slowing losing everything, while they are holding onto a job that could be gone tomorrow.
Those who aren't brave enough to fight for their rights usually have none.
