It’s like this. I have all this extra footage. Some of which is pretty funny. Some good ideas and relationships here. Maybe not top viral quality or awe inspiring. But you know, that’s not what I’m going for here exactly. This is more like an exercise… Thinking of giving Reggie and ray their own show. Similar to this format. A call in show. You can see the potential there, can’t you?

So here’s the first go at what is certain to become a wildly popular hit in this current US market, especially among the 25-35 yr old white male demographic. But since I am 36, I probably shouldn’t be the one you listen to about what will or will not be a hit among any sort of demographic. In any case, you may find it entertaining. Though it didn’t go exactly as I’d hoped. I think next interview will be with someone I don’t know as well. Someone whose career I’m not managing. Anyway, here’s my very first The Hour Long Interview Show with Aaron Wilson (edited to 5 minutes) with my very special guest and client Reggie Cunningham AKA The Mr. Move. Thanks and good night.

So totally BCAT special. Especially since you can see part of my kitchen there. This is just a small taste. I’ll be posting so much more. Keep your pants on… or whatever, take em off.

Hello there! I know at least one person will someday read this. So hello to you, friend… or should I say foe? Anywho, I’m gonna blabber a bit about an upcoming project that I’m working on.

I just bought a new (extra) camera on the cheap ($225) from amazon and it’s a nice crappy consumer grade canon. The z930. I’m just a tad miffed to find that it doesn’t have a fricken headphone jack. I did my research and got it because it has a mic input! Who’da thunk that it’d be headphone free. Maybe it’s something that’s been bothering a lot of people, having the ability to monitor in-camera audio. Anyway it has an AV out which can plug into another “thing” so there are work arounds. Just a bit of a pisser. That’s all. Plus it’s my “extra angle cam” which is a terminology that I just made up, so my old Canon should do the trick just fine… even though the old audio jack is a bit wonky on it. Fucking Cunts! Why the fuck would they put an external mic input on a fucking camera but no headphone jack!? K really that was the last of my raving about it. I’m seriously ok with it.

I also bought two lavelier (lapel) mics and a cool little device to go with it, a 3 channel mic mixer. It doesn’t need batteries and it’s tiny! Really cool!

So this small money nutting aka my mini-purchasing spree was all for a project that I’ve been thinking long and hard-on about that I’m calling “The hour-long Interview show with Aaron Wilson (edited to 5 minutes)”

This show will feature yours truly interviewing various film-makers and entertainers whilst discussing current and past projects of the guests as well as featuring clips of said guest’s current projects. I of course will be making comments in the form of interview-like questions and I’ll also be comparing the quality of guest’s ideas with my own unmatched genius.

This show is going to be produced with the intention of a providing channel102 with a brilliant submission as well as giving my youtube fans a little run for their moneys.

Look for it in the coming weeks.

A sears is an evil, crabby, or mischievous creature of folklore, often described as a grotesquely disfigured or gnome-like phantom, that may range in height from that of a dwarf to that of a human. They are attributed with various (sometimes conflicting) abilities, temperaments and appearances depending on the story and country of origin. In some cases sears’ have been classified as constant annoying little creatures somewhat related with the celtic brownie.

Etymology

According to “The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Current English” the name is probably derived from the Anglo-French seuris (medieval Latin sersanus), which is probably a diminutive of Saurs, a name related to the word sarlious. Sears is also related to the French lutin.

Dwarfs, hiisi, duende, tengu, Menninkäinen and kallikantzaroi are often translated into English as ‘Sears”. The Erlking and Billy Blind are sometimes called sears’. Sears’ are often used as a general term to mean any small mischievous being.

According to some traditions, sears comes from Sor or Sear, the king of the gnomes, whose inferiors were called Sear-lings. Skratta is old Scandinavian word for a sears or monster (modern Icelandic skratti, a devil). Any creature resembling a sears, but larger than a man, is considered a Troll.

Origins in folklore

One fabled origin for sears is in France, in a cleft of the Pyrenees, from which they spread rapidly throughout Europe. They hitched a ride with Viking ships to get to Britain. They have no homes, being nomadic, dwelling temporarily in mossy cracks in rocks and tree roots.

I’m going to describe it to you as if it were real.

The interior of this luxurious home is appointed with cherry, maple, and walnut. Floors, crown molding, doors, staircases, cabinetry, bookshelves, wall niches, and fireplace mantels are built from hardwoods that were harvested from 1500 trees on site, where they were also milled, kiln-dried, and finished.

Cabinetry and bookshelves were custom made off-site to owner’s specifications in a nearby quaint town which remains quaint thanks to the blunderings of it’s cobblers and do-near-wells. All other woodworking was individually handcrafted on-site. Brick and wood artisans were , of course, selected by me through a long process of team challenges, personality tests and finally, eliminations. The craftsmanship is therefore exquisite. Exterior dimensions render a gross area of approximately 18,000 square feet. Though actual interior living space is only 6,700 square feet. The home’s rooms have generously-scaled open spaces, especially on the first floor, and provide many private places for retreat, rest, sex, dark-worship and work. The design is ideal for grand entertaining as well as intimate family living.

The design for this home is both noble and luxurious as development required more than 50 years. I personally sketched and re-sketched interior and exterior concepts, and allowed a local architectural firm to prepare the preliminary drawings for my musings. The plans were then sent overseas, where they were further refined by European architects in Holland specializing in traditional Sthapatya Veda design. Additional features and specifications were incorporated into the plans, and final drawings were rendered and certified in France. Perhaps the most subtle yet powerful and deliberate aspect of the home design is its spiral composition. The spiral is the most universal form in nature. It facilitates movement, growth, and balance while reconciling opposites. Each room and each floor is given a special position and dimension in the overall structure and revolves around the central atrium, which is considered the spiritual center of home life. The harmonious continuum of this spiral attitude from room to room is transferred from floor to floor and to each room in each floor. Furthermore, the home’s exact proportions and dimensions were specifically formulated to harmonize with the surrounding environment of meadows, hillocks, stream, and woodlands.

The home’s brick exterior extends from the foundation to the top of each of the five main gables. The brickwork features an interlacing of wide-band herringbone patterns, soldier courses, and gently protruding quoins at each of the eight vertical corners. Two massive chimneys, each with two flues, display patterns of brick corbels, herringbone, and rows of double bond brick that are raised in relief to maximize the interplay of sunlight and shade. The home has steel I-beam structural members and substantial overcompensation for all load requirements. Exterior walls are fourteen inches thick, and interior first-floor walls approximately seven inches thick, according to Sthapatya Veda specifications.

Eighteen half-round window arches, each set off by running bonds of red brick with limestone sills and keystones, add to the home’s Old World ambiance. Four cathedral windows adorn the home’s prayer and meditation room. The exteriors of these windows are outlined in relief with intricately cut brick. All of the home’s eight hundred fifty-plus windows are double-casement style with limestone sills and include interior screening and double-glazing for sound and thermal insulation. There are also sixty six skylights at various strategic locations.

The home has fourteen exterior balconies and one third-floor interior balcony overlooking the atrium; a third-floor sun deck; and a widow’s walk at the home’s summit. An extra-wide, wrap-around porch extends around three sides of the home. The home include seventeen bedrooms with built-in bookshelves, six-and-a-half ceramic-tiled baths, a split-level master suite, library, art studio, large laundry room, and woodworking shop. There is also a formal, marble-floored foyer with a magnificent demon shaped chandelier. Arches, archways, and nineteen sets of double French doors that overlook the atrium and lead to balconies and to the outdoors create a unifying theme throughout the interior and exterior of the home.

A 34′ x 34′ atrium in the center of the home, designed to conform to traditional Sthapatya Veda specifications, rises six-and-a-half stories to a cathedral ceiling with a cherry cross-beam and two skylights. The floor beneath it features a striking cross design in cherry, walnut, and maple. Flooring in the library includes a semi-herringbone pattern of cherry wood. Flooring in the completely finished basement consists in part of a playful geometric pattern in cherry, walnut, and maple. At the center of the basement floor is a series of inlaid triangles made of cherry, walnut, and maple—one inside the other. In the center of the innermost triangle, is a three-inch diameter circle made of walnut that marks the exact center of balance of the home.

The kitchen has six built-in dishwashers, a breakfast bar, and generous storage spaces. Its custom-made arched cherry cabinetry blends with the theme of arches from the exterior brickwork and interior archways while continuing the flow of interior cherry woodworking. Its floors and walls are covered with gently rough-cut, earth-tone ceramics that compliment the dining room hearth as called out in the Sthapatya Veda design. All first-floor areas have ten- and twelve-foot ceilings, in accordance with Sthapatya Veda design. Radiant heat is distributed throughout the first floor by hot water veins embedded beneath the surface of the hardwood flooring. The library has floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a large fireplace with a marble hearth, and two elegant fans hung from twelve-foot ceilings. A wood-burning stove is set on an arched stone hearth in the dining area next to the library.

Booyah.

I started recording NBC’s Journeyman to give it a go but quickly fell behind when I had to give higher priority items my limited and valuable time. Well a few weeks ago I caught a vicious cold and at the height of my sickness I called into work and found that I had all day to watch TV. I more than just “caught up,” I became a fan. It was some of the most enthralling and moving television I’ve ever experienced.

Today, I watched the best episode yet. However, I didn’t realize till now that what I just saw would be the very last episode of the series. Strangely though it did feel like an ending. I thought that endy feeling might be signifying an end to just the season… not the series. For some reason, though, I like the idea of having just one tight season as the entire series. Like you can share it with people easier. I know already that I’ll be buying this series (hope it won’t take long to release the DVDs) for myself and as a gift for numerous unsuspecting friends. In a way it feels like this gem of a show is my secret. A secret that my friends are going to be thrilled to learn. And until I just looked it up, I didn’t know it had been slipping in the ratings. It’s mind boggling how this show kinda came and went with out much fanfare. In a lot of ways, it’s heartbreaking to feel like something so amazing can be so overlooked… but I guess it’s not surprising. The American audience is not known for its intelligence or patience, so once again we have to say goodbye to one of the best shows in TV history.

And I gotta just mention that the way it’s shot and graded is top notch… and of course in HD it’s just a beautiful looking show. I plan to make this show my reason to buy an HD DVD player.

A great review from September

The goodbye
