In honor of today being the 103rd anniversary of the birth of my friend Kurt Vonnegut, I am posting this previously unpublished photo of the author in Cedar Falls, Iowa, taken by Vonnegut scholar and friend Jerry Klinkowitz in 1977. I love this photo.

I don’t even LIKE crowds, but today I was happy to join my fellow Hamas-loving, radical left insurrectionist, Communist, America Hating, Soros-funded, violent terrorists on the streets of Studio City, CA.

I just re-watched "It Happened One Night" on tcmtv.bsky.social. Just possibly a perfect movie. Who would have guessed that the "first" rom-com would remain one of the very best, setting the standard for everything that's followed for the next 90 years?

Some people think that if just one person had bought a painting from a young Adolf Hitler, history might have changed. I often wonder what would have happened if there were just one girl in high school or college who hadn’t rejected Stephen Miller.

In 1995, my friend Keith Gordon and I were in Montreal, filming our feature adaptation of the Vonnegut novel, "Mother Night," after five years of struggling to get financing.
We blinked our eyes, and thirty years flew by. That's forty-two years of friendship, and counting.

Years ago, a friend tried to convince me to join her in Thailand. I said, "No, too many screaming monkeys and poisonous fruit. You go with your girlfriends and have a good time."

If L.A. is home, and NYC is home-away-from-home and London is home-away-from-home-away-from-home, then Paris is home-away-from-home-away-from-home-away-from-home. (2nd photo: Arpège for lunch.)

When I got on a Delta flight to NYC yesterday, I didn't know I'd be able to spend time with this good looking Babe. And yes, I'm sentimental enough that I paused an image on the monitor so I could look at her all through the flight.
