The patrons of this little place just north of Ashland are an interesting bunch of people. Many of them would be [...] Read more »

Your world comes closing in leaving you and your love together. Everything else fades to silver, to black, to red, to every conceivable [...] Read more »
Love
It’s late saturday night and I’ve spent the day installing a new edit bay at Filmpool in Burbank. I LOVE putting together new systems. Taking all the components out of the boxes. Figuring out where they should go, what the “ergonomics” of everything will be. (now wasn’t that a 50 cent word?) So today was [...] Read more »
