It's about me, me, me

If we're going to show our faces, well, here I am.

I'd like to think I look like I sound. (okay, but if I'm disgruntled, and about to puke on your shoes, I'll try to miss, because that would be the polite thing to do).

Edited to add: Let's all get Ann Margret - V(d)iva Las Vegas!

    I've never stolen anybody's wallet, but if you were that drunk guy who kept his money rolled up in his sock, and passed out drunk in that alley, well, at least the money went to a good cause.

    And if I did take your wallet, rest assured it went to charity.

    I should 'splain those are indestructible glasses. In a street fight win, lose or draw, it is a given that your glasses will get broken. So I went for indestructible glasses. But I looked like a dork, which lead to more street fights, which kinda defeated the everlast nature of the glasses. The following pair I lost puking in the back seat of a cab, but that's a long story.

    I think you look cool, Jim, young and rockin'

    Yes, I agree, Eric. I'd pictured him old and rocking. How weird that's he's young.

    ...unless this picture is 40 years old.

    ... uhm, just taken last week down at a photo booth in Times Square after a screening of "It's Alive".
    And I was telling Larry he really should get Andy Kaufman to star in his next picture. And David Croneberg said to me how much trouble he was getting financing for his movies, and I said, ... well that really doesn't matter. Hey, who's playing at CBGBs?

    Hey! You're the guy who threw that garbage can through the window of Starbucks in Seattle back in 1999!

    (Or, perhaps, just a fellow-traveler...) ;)

    I think he looks like he belongs in some punk band.

    and I mean a REAL punk band circa "77... not the fake ass shit they try to call punk today.

    I spoke with the late Stiv a few times - Jim looks a lot less ... deranged.
