The Hits Just Keep Coming!

I haven't exactly been editing these old blogs, but I've skipped a few because they weren't really relevant anymore, or because they didn't contribute anything. I'd probably have not bothered with this one, but it sets up one of the coming posts, with pictures from Costa Rica. Plus, it was really great to hear we were playing there, it's a date to remember. And that date was Saturday, September 22, 2007

Well, there's no more denying it. I'm officially leading a charmed life.

Just got word that "Mars Needs Bibles" has been accepted at the Montezuma International Film Festival. My first non-US screening. I am now a true international sensation.

"Wait, Montezuma, you say? Is this a fest devoted to intestinal parasites?"

No. Well, maybe, but that's not what it's all about. It's located in Montezuma, Costa Rica, at the end of the penninsula. The world's primo vacation spot, and these guys have capitalized on it. A comfy little resort town, right on the water. Beach, sun, cocktails, good seafood. Just the sort of place we've been wanting to go for awhile.

You better believe we will be. A tax-deductible scuba trip? Hell yeah!

Problem is, the festival is in early November, the same time that my exhibition for the Chez Bernard endowment is supposed to be. We'll have to push that back. Not sure how far, exactly. Once you're in November there're holidays to work around, and then more holidays, and all of a sudden you're looking at 2008. I don't want to push it that far back. I need a pressing deadline to keep me working. 2008 might as well be Jetsons-future. (Now that I think of it, I think we've probably already passed the years of "Jetson-future," may well be on our way to "Star Trek" territory by now.)

Anyone who worked on "Mars Needs Bibles," consider yourself invited. Hell, if you've seen it, come and watch it with us in a tropical paradise.

By the way, Freddy reminds me that Costa Rica is where Dr. John Hammond performed his unholy experiments involving dinosaur DNA. So bring your T. Rex repellant.
