12/07/2005: "Get Well and then some by Chris Folino"

I want to send our continued love and support to our producer Manuel Silva
Who is battling throat cancer. Manuel is a sweet man and without his talents
and endless dedication to the movie, we would never have gotten it done or have a product
at the caliber it is. Get well my friend I still want to continue to make fun of your hideous dye job.
Have you seen his photo in the interview section? Jesus! What makes a dark skin person think blonde is good color for his hair? Sad, not as sad as cancer...but very close!

You know, it's a horrible thing having to have to a person battle a life threatening
illness, and what makes it even sadder is that in order to have a chance
to beat this disease, Manuel is paying for experimental drugs.

I don't understand how as a nation, we spend billons of dollars on cancer
research that doesn't work each year and yet we still make patients pay for experimental
treatments! It's wrong! This world is a little "messed up" when
outstanding people like Manuel Silva and a young girl like Breanna Pflaumer have to pay for
experimental treatment to battle to stay alive because, the HMO's of this
world suck at what they do.

I also would like to wish Gordon Madison, a great man and the inspiration
behind the "Gordon" character all the best with recovery from his surgery. Get well Gordon, the hard rockin Christian band Stryper can't afford to lose their one and only fan! And when you get back I'll buy you one of their cool Stryper New Testament bibles autographed! Wow, I never knew "God" autographed the bible...oh wait, that's right it's just the band members of Stryper who have the balls to sign copies of the bible.
Wow, I know who my roommates in hell will be! And man does their music suck!



Other thoughts today.

Happy 25th birthday to the great Maya animator Dave Colacioppo! I'm a fan of
your work and I look forward to starting the animated movie in 2006 with
you! That's if we sell this movie or your meth lab takes off...in a good way.

And lastly, in order to pay for all our entry fees into festivals, I'm strongly leaning towards The Patriots -3 over the Bills this weekend. I got $249.00 dollars to bet. I'm thinking of also picking the Colts -7 1/2 over the Jaguars! If I can double the money, then we can pay for the festival submissions. And when we sell the movie, we will of course help Manuel pay for his treatments or perhaps a better coloring job for his hair.

I think we covered enough for one blog today!

Hello to Rob in San Francisco! For "Fuck Sake" come on down and visit!
My best to Mario Vanillo for being my vote for GQ man of the year.
