Our beloved little black kitty MeeMoo had been ill with breathing problems for the past few weeks, and after a visit to the vet, an xray revealed an unidentifiable mass in her left lung. We scheduled an ultrasound for her on Tuesday (tomorrow), but perhaps due to her advanced years in addition to the lung mass, our poor little MeeMoo suddenly ( Read more... )

What an asshole!

Happy Year of the Dog, mina-san! Since Christmas was such a letdown (see previous LJ post), I was really looking forward to New Year’s. The BF and I started an annual tradition when we moved to L.A. three years ago. We usually spend New Year’s Day in Little Tokyo, but this year we decided to spend New Year’s Eve in Little Tokyo as well. It had ( Read more... )

I certainly hope everyone is having a great holiday season! Mine has been quite the shit-storm. For the past 3 years I have been working in DVD post production for a crappy little media company here in L.A. The owner (who is my BF's cousin mind you) sold the company...and proceeded to fire the production department! Yep, I was let go the Monday ( Read more... )

I've been searching for this piece of art for many years, but I can't seem to track it down. I don't know the name of the artist or what year it was created (best guess is sometime in the 1800's or early 1900's), but I can certainly describe the hell out of it! The painting depicts a tall mansion in the mid-ground that has been partially ravaged ( Read more... )

My boss came into my office yesterday and requested that I change some of the DVD box covers I'm creating for a collection of classic "black cinema" films we will be releasing soon. No big deal, right? Get this, he wanted the colors to be more garish and loud BECAUSE (and here's exactly what he told me) "Black people love bright colors ( Read more... )

Are any of us really surprised by this news? But good for you anyway, George! You go, boy!

I always wondered why in the entire history of the Star Trek franchise there were no openly gay characters. Tons of ambiguous aliens, but no gay humans. You'd think by the time "Enterprise" came around there would have been at least one bi-curious

I was wondering when this was going to be released! I heard about it last year, but I didn't know any details about the film other than it was an Ang Lee project. Here's the trailer (at VideoDetective ( Read more... )

I still don't have internet access, dammit! The BF decided to set up a wireless base station for his Mac's, and of course, my PC is not compatible with it...so no internet for me until I acquire an ethernet cable. I should have one by this weekend. Right now I'm using the BF's laptop. I don't like laptops.

At least the fires are out!
