10/23/2006: "RE-UNITED"

music: Spaceball Ricochet
mood: 2L2Q

So here is part two of "Photographic Evidence that Your Boy Is Still Alive in SoCal."



Taken a few weeks ago at the San Diego Asian Film Festival. From l-r - Yours Truly, Mr. Doyle, Mr. Wyman and Mean Gene. We all used to run the DC APA Film Festival together. Yours Truly is now out in LA trying to stand on his own two feet, Mr. Doyle is a superstar network technician and is still involved with the DC APA Film Festival, Mr. Wyman is now head of programming at the DC APA Film Festival and Mean Gene is the programming director for the SDAFF Festival.

Despite the somber demeanor, we're all really good friends.

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of the OTHER big reunion of the night, but I will substitute a song that represents the general (and I use that term loosely) sentiment that I felt that night and the on the long drive home to Los Angeles.

The Best I Can Do For Now

And while we're on the subject of being re-united, here's a remix of one of my favorite hip hop songs. My kid brother had this on a mix tape during my college years and I pretty much tried to steal it from him at every chance (this was during the birth of the MP3 and I was not as savvy as I am today). Luckily a year or two after I heard the song I was able to find the single in a used record shop in Toronto. Still holds up and the instrumental break in the middle really sounds like Oasis's "Whatever." Look it up yourself.
