One Busy Week with this Poor Filmmaker...

Got a busy week lined up with this filmmaker....

Lots going on.

Still have a lot going on with these non-film related legal issues; starting self-distribution for our hit short film PHONE SEX GRANDMA on DVD; in pre-production for our first feature film comedy JUNK; and trying to sell Mother's STRIPPER book. A lot's going on....

Simply put, I just don't have time to do things. Most of what I have to do in online based; I can just get dial-up internet that's limited to websites out at the shacks; so I have to come here in town to a public place to work these things for a few hours. And that's not near enough time to work on these things I need to get done.

Some of these things I'm just gonna have to put on hold; I have to figure out how to take one thing at time, and get things done. I'm gonna try to just focus on distribution of the DVD version of PHONE SEX GRANDMA this week; if I can get some money generated with that, then I can get some more of these other things done.

It's a hard life, filmmaking when you're poor, broke and in the boonies; but you do get to do things your own way; just don't have any help.

And life goes on....

No Filmmaking this Week: Just Legal Problems

Days like this really piss me off that I live in such an idiotic country.....

Sometimes, I just can't figure out why our government is so stupid.

I have been a lifetime U.S. resident. 10 years ago, I changed my name with social security and my driver's license. I have been going by my name for the last 10 years; and in those 10 years, have run for Congress, voted every election, paid taxes, worked, driven a car, made movies, and lived life as an American. Under this new name.

And now, because of idiotic terrorist-related identity laws, I cannot renew my drivers license.

Get this shit: My birth certificate says my birth name. Every other form of identity and legal material I have has my new name. And because of these federal laws the government changed in 2006, when you renew your driver's license, you HAVE to show your birth certificate, social security card, and another legal proof of identity. And they all have to match.

This makes no sense. I have been a Missouri resident for 43 years. I have had a driver's license for 25 years. And renew it every year. Now, because my birth certificate does not match all of my identity, I cannot renew my license.

This is some country we live in.

It amazes me....only in America....can a guy be an Army veteran, a former Democratic candidate for Congress, a lifetime U.S. resident, and now not be able to renew a driver's license without going to court, spend a lot of money and go through a bunch of red tape, just to renew a driver's license.

I have been having to deal with this issue all week. And nothing else.

I'm the kind of person, that when I have one pressing issue, I can't really do anything else until I get that pressing issue done.

And life continues....

THE OLD STRIPPER on Indiegogo:

The Dentist, Mother's Book, and being numb.....

What a day....

I've been over in Pittsburg....you talk about a dead town, in the friggin' boonies of S.E. Kansas...just got back here to Lamar....and just as dead....

Had to come over here to Pittsburg today to go to the dentist and get a tooth filled. The left side of my face is totally numb from novocaine....it'll probably be numb all day. Won't get back out to the shack until later today...and by then, probably'll need to rest off this numbness. We'll see if I can get anything done today. Doesn't look likely...

Wanted to spend today promoting Mother's new STRIPPER book online at http://thoughtsofastripper.webs.com . No time today to work online! Maybe tomorrow...

Gonna try to work her book hard tomorrow. Have about 15 mailings of festival waivers for our hit shorts to put together and send out; get distribution screeners sent out for THE OUTHOUSE, ACCEPTABLE SIN and 60 YEAR OLD STRIPPER to start making distribution money online with those hit fest shorts; gotta pick an Oscar qualifier to have the premiere of our upcoming short PAYDAY LOAN; find time to shoot a little bit of THE OLD STRIPPER documentary; and get pre-production wrapped up for JUNK...

Busy times!

THE X-RATED GRANDMA on Indiegogo

Well...we now have a new website for our film project THE X-RATED GRANDMA....

INDIEGOGO!

Indiegogo has partnered with us to help us raise money to make our new feature film. It took me over 2 years, but I finally filmed the movie, and got that done...7 different short films of my Mother Opal, aka PHONE SEX GRANDMA!

We've got to raise just a little more money to get the editing done for this film, so we can start getting it out on the film festival circuit. Indiegogo is going to try to help us make this happen.

PHONE SEX GRANDMA, THE OUTHOUSE, THE 60 YEAR OLD STRIPPER, THE ACCEPTABLE SIN....these little short films I've made have played over 60 festivals worldwide....now we just need to finish editing our first feature...and we'll already have a worldwide film market for THE X-RATED GRANDMA to play!
