  • Tropical Turpitude (conclusion)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpVCmQP3-R0    Conclusion   With the help of beer and dolphins, my documentary drastically degrades even more. We attempt to complete our shoot in Key West, but our behind the scenes story OVERTAKES the entire production. At long last, I find a mentor (on site) who makes a reality simple and possible. An amazing story!  

    Tropical = Still Good.     Turpitude = Even MORE Nefarious.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpVCmQP3-R0   Part 1 (of 2)   Tropical = Good. Turpitude = being nefarious.   When I took a crew to remote Key West to shoot a squeaky-clean documentary, the REAL story unfolded behind the scenes. With immorality trying to take the main stage, I begin to understand that former college friends, alcohol and saltwater sometimes don’t mix.

  • My Dad's Voice

    Send us Fan Mail

    When my father passed a few years back, I thought about all the love, work and care he and my mom put into raising my sister & me, I realized I didn’t need him like I used to need him. It was NOT because of his age or time. I still sought him out to listen to his direct, carefully measured  appropriate advice. It was then I realized he had parented & mentored me so well, for so long, I felt I knew which way to go. It was as if I could hear his voice helping me. 

    Do my children listen or hear me? It is inevitable. They might not realize it now, but someday I would be honored to be a source for either one of them.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77ObwZOd_MY       As we saw our childhoods coming to an end, the feeling of innocence returned because of a vacation destination in California. Through fuzzy memories we retell about a 1968 vacation which presented adventure, sunburns and discovery. During the west coast's decade of peace, color & unrest, there was an unusual imbalance of protests and the feeling of all is well; despite the Vietnam War.
