So the Squirrels are back with a vengence! This time they tricked me into being nice to them when it appeared that they had quit their malicious behavior and a peaceful co-existence had begun. Well all that is shattered now that they are all horny (again) and now they're really aggressive and downright disrespectful seeking their cheep thrills in any tree they come across. I've never heard squirrels make such sounds, almost like birds in their complexity. I should have known better, I mean they're squirrels and squirrels are, well, squirrley, and yet somehow I forgot that. I also forgot that there is some sort of squirrel hotline so even if I go down to the club for a day or two sure enough, a representative of the tree rats is more than likely to spot me and then the harassment begins all over again. Seriously, don't f*** with a squirrel, they and theirs will then do whatever they can to drive you NUTS!
okay that last entry (below) is pretty disgusting, even for me so I'm writing a few sentences to knock that filth down so nobody will ever read it!
ALERT! ALERT! COMING SOON TO THIS PAGE:
A TEASER REEL FOR 'FROM CONCENTRATE' my latest film

OMG!_NFW! all these GROOVEY CHICKS TALKING TO ME?!
what in the world happened allavasudden? confidence? riches? my new ab machine? - the last few years of my work has been based on not getting any and now that it's coming out of every nook and cranny I'm worried I'll become some complacent 'cock of the walk' and lose any creative juice now that much of it is staining the sheets of many a saucey trollop and tavern wench across the circuit.
what the hell is happening ? ahhhh!
i HAVENt come down to LA yet as everything is delayed! But I'm totally trying to line stuff up! With the price of gas and all the planes being delayed for over 24 hours I'm considering just driving down in my SUPER VAN WITH DISCO INTERIOR and just sleep in it like all the Metal Dudes used to do on the Sunset Strip! I got some ladyfriends I can crash with from time to time and I think there are a few new ones on the itinerary as well as a buddie that has a condo on Sunset so I may just forgo the Mondrian Hotel this time - I mean the SkyBar is done and you basically have to tip the bellboys with coke so I think it might be cheaper to just take SUPER VAN and pick up a few yippi's along the way AND THEY CAN CHIP IN ON GAS SO I SAVE MONEEEEE (ANY YIPPI INTERESTED IN GOING TO LA ALONG THE PATH OF INTERSATE FINE AND THE 101 GO AHEAD AND E ME - i'M THINKING MID JULY- I can film it, too!! THE MAGICAL ME-STORY TOUR!!(c) - HEY! an AMERICAN INDIAN can ride along side and jump off their horse and onto the roof of the Van! - and take the ice chest that is strapped to the top and jump back on your painted Palamino and ride away with a cry!! Then later when I'm attacked by wolves I'm saved by a score of arrows with feathers spotted in the same fashion as the ones on the Palamino, each one piercing the hearts of the rapid, snarling pack as SUPERVAN breaks through into the twilight, never once seeing the master archer to whom the travelers fate had been saved.
I think that would rock!!

So I'm cleaning up the porch and I am organizing all my cans and bottles and basically gift wrapping my garbage so the city will accept it and i look into a cardboard box that was storing various pieces of garbage and I see something moving. I think to myself "oh great, roaches, and big ones too" but upon looking closer I notice the telltale sign of little beaks wide open expecting some food. "Good Christ!" I yelled and jumped back, afraid to get any closer - it was a little bird's nest, almost miniature in it's design, woven intricately from the strands of the old Weeping Burch in my backyard. I was shocked that I had been moving this junk around to throw out and these poor little birds (I counted at least three with two unhatched eggs about the size of a marble could have been thrown away at any time due to my random method of cleaning house. After I gained my composure I carefully returned the box to as close to where it had been sitting for about two months and left - sure enough in a brief moment a little crested sparrow showed up with some feathers in its beak. The little bird was clearly distraught and hopped about from table to chair to porch rail and then flew off again. This was bad, I ran out to the porch again and put the box close to where the bird had been hopping around under the table and jumped back inside. Sure enough the little bird came back again and this time, after hopping around in the same pattern FOUND THE NEST and went in! The Crested Sparrow continues to fly back and fourth, feeding those hungry little beaks and leaving me in this conundrum - all of a sudden the pile of trash on my porch is now an ecological zone - I'm starting to realize the beauty of renewal, even through the wasteland of the toxic swamp that was once my back porch, life springs forth! I've had to pay the crows an extra pittance of crackers now so they don't try to eat them, they generally wont if the hatchlings are still alive, and the sparrow continues to fly in and out with various forms of seed, meal and carrion for the little ones.
Summer has finally arrived to Seattle, finally I get the warm evenings that one takes for granted while living next to the La Brea Tarpits - (Soon I will be down there, trying once again to save that poor Woolly Mammoth and once again to no avail, alas.) The Seattle area, geologically speaking is just a lot of silt left over from the ice age - in fact this year has seen the largest and latest melting snowpack in officially recorded history so it's kind of funny when you hear people tell you all the ice up North is melting IT ISN'T! - but anyway the bounty of spring and the leftover stock from winter lets us leave our jobs early because the boss already took yesterday off and is going sailing tomorrow so all us lilly white bookworms that talk like NPR announcers (don't deny it you Seattleites!) go out into the sun and get burns that will turn into tans later and take you just one step closer to skin cancer and in about two months the sun is gone and we can all crawl back into our basements and invent some new computer widget that makes it even harder to get stuff done or perform some whiney song about the girl that left you for another girl and be all proud of ourselves for being sexually ambiguous. That's Seattle - trust me.
Memories of 3rd Grade!!
I got invited to a few little girl tea parties when I was a kid along with a few of my friends. One time the gang and I rode our banana bikes with the sissy bars and the slick on the back down the hill to Chris Rumfs house where all the cuter girls in 3rd grade had been working all day on these very interesting looking mud pies with rocks on the top and leaves tastefully arranged all around them - there was a complex array of sticks that they called 'silverware' and a whole lot of empty boxes of campfire girl cookies that they were hoping to bribe us out of our allowance money to pay for after eating what they should have sold to the neighbors. Well me and the boys didn't fall for it and we busted up that tea party pretty well and used the dirt pies as dirt clods and pelted the little old ladies house next door and we were on the next hill jumping off our makeshift ramp when the cops showed up at poor Cris Rumfs house.
Those girls never talked to us again until for some reason in 11th grade when we came over when her folks were out to finish off the booze that they had already got a head start on and we wound up doing other things, things that were soft, sweet and sticky!!!

WHY DID I SIGN BACK UP TO MYSPACE?
>Message: IT'S FULL OF KIDS!!!>NO OFFENCE!!!!>THIS SITE IS MUCH MORE GROWN UP!!!>DARKSTAR
Neil's Reply: And the kids that are here are pretty together people (Like Tori) - Dude! I joined MYSPACE to talk to one person and all of a sudden I get messages from 17 year olds with tattoos and piercings wanting a 'friend with benefits' situation because they're sooo mad at their boyfriend! I usually scare them away by telling them they need to go to a church right away and prey to Jesus for forgiveness or the devil will come into their bed in a fortnight and give them a good licking! - actually that probably turns them on but all the same I never hear from them again -
It's only a matter of time before most kids today would rather sell their asses on the myspace rather then get a job - oh that's right all the jobs are taken by third world refugees! Refugees gotta eat as well, I'm just saying the kind of jobs I got when I was a teenager are now being done by someone else - and I was pretty lazy anyway.
It's actually really sh***y for most youth today - the economy is going to get way worse and opportunities are going to be harder to find - even for the smart ones - I'm hoping to G*d that Obama becomes President! I don't agree with a lot of what he plans to do but he actually DOES have the kind of experience we are going to need in the White House because we are going to have to pass out a lot of money to a lot of people who are hurting bad - and honestly - I trust him to do it - Hillary's butt would have just gotten bigger and bigger if she was elected and the Peoples Republic of Vietnam will just pick up the phone and activate the hypnotic suggestion they put in Mcain's mind while he was a P.O.W. and all of a sudden he'll go into a trance and walk over to the panic button and launch on Beijing!
I think the one cool thing about kids today is that most of them are pretty much for Obama - so even if Mcain takes it - Obama is here to stay and we all better learn to work wit 'dat!
street hooks!

May is the month I get "From Concentrate" all put together - I'm beginning with sound sync tests on the hardest partsI'm bringing in one of the best local sound engineers Bob (The Bishop) Bishop as he kicked ass fixing the sound formy lead actor Paul's piece "Handsome Men of Action". I'm transferring everything for viewing only - THEN after logging and setting an EDL list (yes, I actually use EDL lists) I go back to the film and EDIT IT BY HAND - Unless of course the boys at the local lab here tell me to just cut the segments out where they are then fed into the printer individually - I can't see how that would be the way to do it as there are lots of quick cuts - I'm pretty sure I have to splice it together - I really want to do it this way so I have a master that is OPTICALLY PRINTED! but I may have to just scan the film at the highest possible format and then spit it back out onto film - BUT THE GOAL IS TO RELY ON THE STATE OF THE ART TECHNOLOGY AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE - as Han Solo said when cut off by two Imperial Star Destroyers "Here's where the real fun begins!" I'm so in the zone now - oh! I may do most of the lab work in Hollywood as there are way more places to do the work - aaaahhhhh! I gotta get down to LA ASAP!!!

- i'M Really glad you're all voting for me BUT! |
Message:

- all the videos I've posted are merely DOCUMENTATION OF MY PROCESS and NOT the final product in any way!! - I hope people are picking up on that and seeing it as sort of 'The Making Of...' or like the early NASA footage (I mean c'mon JetCar...NASA - if you look closely there is a reference to the first NASA SPACEWALK in the Houndcat video and I won't tell unless someone guesses - it's a RIDDLE- and I am the Riddler! mwahha haaah ha ha!)so understand you ain't seen NOTHING YET
Unlike other films that have chosen to use yippi.com as their primary promotion arm, I am being TOTALLY TRUTHFUL about my process and what is REALLY HAPPENING ON MY FILM as opposed to some of the other dog and pony shows that have some little men hiding behind a curtain pulling all the switches (and trap doors!) so perhaps what the yippi community sees is someone actually GENUINE presenting themselves and what they do -
It's so funny that people use the same old excuse for shooting horror garbage is that 'it's what people want to see' - we'll then why are the people voting ME up on this site and I'll never touch horror again after experiencing more for real horror than you could ever imagine - SHOOTING HORROR IS A COP OUT ATTITUDE - AND TO SAY THAT EVERYONE STARTS OUT IN HORROR IS FALSE - YOU START WITH HORROR AND YOU ARE STUCK WITH IT BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO NOTHING BETTER!
Now don't get me wrong - horror is a valid emotion and part of what we do as filmmakers is to explore emotions and themes - BUT TO SIMPLY EMULATE THE CURRENT STATE OF THE ART AND NOT TAKE THOSE THEMES TO A NEW DIRECTION OR LEVEL MEANS THE WORK IS INSIGNIFICANT - so why bother?
Anyway I'm getting off the subject - urm, what was the subject again? -
oh yeah, I'm editing MY FILM 'From Concentrate' and i may or MAY NOT decide to feature the PREVIEW here on yippi - I mean I guess what ever is left of the actual users of this site seem to vote for me - AND I HAVE NEVER - EVER REQUESTED A VOTE FROM ANYONE so I guess I can count on a fair number of people looking at it
AND HOPEFULLY TEAR INTO IT AS HARSHLY AS POSSIBLE! -
- BUT JUST REMEMBER! YOU GIVE ME A SMACK - AND I'LL SMACK YOU BACK!!

I'm sure there will be one episode in my future where 'she' shows up on my doorstep and the FUTUREWIFE defends her territory with honors! - so 'she' retreats to her hotel suite after whispering her room number along with "i'll be waiting" - All of a sudden Enoch (my eldest son) comes running up to me - "Hey Dad! is that xxxxxx xxxxxxx? that super hot movie star woman that just divorced that bigtime Hollywood producer? - so you DID KNOW HER! - no wonder Mom told me it wasn't true and to not ask you-ha! - WOW Dad! you should totally go to her hotel room and nail her! - I'll distract Mom, but you gotta let me get away with at least a 'B-' in Advanced Calculus, I'm too busy with my physics experiments to take the extra credit in Calc.
So I just recently discovered that 80% of the girls in design school that I was a total bastard to have all confessed to peers that each one of them secretly wanted to do me but I never went to any of their parties - even the ones I was invited to - - - this actually just makes me madder at them because what kind of woman does the grudge f**k thing? - I mean I really didn't like any of you and I meant what I said, but yeah, you were all really hot and I probably would have done you the favor if you had provided me with a smoke and a drink or two but WOW I TOTALLY THOUGHT YOU LOOKED AT ME AS A TOAD - AND YET NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN I have about four confessions in the last four months along with further names!?- DAMN! actually that explains that one month of clubbing - that was a big weird time for the clubs in LA in the early 90's - a generational shift - damn kids always on my lawn! Sorry I never tread on yours, design school girls...

| / /\ \ \+/ <(YIPPI!!!> bodies being cut up)
i WILL hold a contest for all yippi musicians for my
NEW sexymoviecalled "The GotLit" READ ON>>>>
It's about how a group of NE'ER-DO-WELL KIDS try to make a movie by organizing a small army of disgruntled ACTORS and MUSICIANS and HIJINX ENSUES!
and eventually the whole process devolves into one big orgy - Art Flesh Steals that scene -
Then everyone smokes crack and starts fighting for the crumbs when it runs out -
Then some guy in a rainbow colored ski mask comes in and chops up everybody and then feels sorry for everyone and tries to put all the body parts back together but you wind up getting weird body sculptures where you have male heads attached to female bodies - legs are where arms should be and then some goat by the name of 'Trailer Park Trixie' starts munching on the entrails - that shot is continuous and goes for like 7 minutes! Then the camera turns around and we see that the crew has also been butchered except for the director that just sits there amongst the carnage looking quietly and finally chimes in with his megaphone..."That was Great! Really Great - print it! - uh erm.. do you think we could do that one more time?"Suddenly a light falls on his head and bolts of electricity envelope his convulsing bodyas we FADE TO BLACK and the CAPTIONS READ
"...Got Lit?" DISSOLVES INTO "The End. No, really we mean it this time..."
Auditions begin May 1st (international workers day) at 5:30am SHARP! at my new studio/club which I'm thinking about naming "The Stay-Free Mini Pad" (at least on 'Dike Night') first come first serviced and don't worry, prepare to ad-lib - you'll all have to pay for your own airfare.
I'm thinking the music should be along the line of early Baroque (nothing past 1790)

CASTING CALL:
Seeking two women to replace the current cast of SAUCY TROLLIPS that come to my house, party and play 'Bad Dog!' and 'Side Saddled Sadie' with me - must be active and limber, all sizes, ethnicity and hair colours welcome! Must be willing to clean up after and cook breakfast - compensation dependent on experience and the laws of this state in regards to soliciting.
STICK WITH YIPPI FOLKS! IN TWO YEARS THE ONES THAT WERE HERE IN THE EARLY DAYS WILL BE WORSHIPED LIKE GODS IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES! (LIKE HOLLYWOOD, CA) ! YIPPIIIIIIIIIII!!!
Ali-Salaam and I just shot a great audition for Biggest Loser, Ali is trying out for the part with his younger brother - Ali is in pretty tough shape - (he scared the hell out of some chumps that were trying to mess up my Super JetCar! in front of a bar one night) - but he wants to get down to his trim fighting weight so he's going for it - I really hope it works out for him
I did this for Ali-Salaam in the past (people seemed to like it):
http://www.yippi.com/alisalaam/videos/?v=108839
DONT FORGET TO GO TO HIS SITE! > http://www.alisalaam.com/
- I have had the pleasure of casting Ali-Salaam in my film "From Concentrate" and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made - He's leaving for LA in a few days and I'll be meeting up with him for the work I'm doing there soon - still can't talk about it yet - %$@*!! oh well - I never thought I'd miss that town, but last time I was there everything just came back to me and I guess you just can't take it out of me - it's what I do - I can't help it - sheesh, I'm remembering so many HUGE things I was involved in over the years - it's funny when people try to call me on it - especially the crybabies!
A very important rule in the real Hollywood:
"Don't try to enforce the laws of the studios and unions if you are breaking them yourself "- you hear that Hollywood?
OMG! all these GROOVEY CHICKS TALKING TO ME?!!
HOW AM I GONNA DEAL WITH THIS?...GEE THIS IS REALLY A PROBLEM...WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME ALL THE TIME?
========================================================================================
THANKS FOR LETTING ME COME BACK AFTER MY CELEB REHAB!
I have Turrets Syndrome when it comes to postings and will just fly off the handle and can be extremely insulting and I apologize to everyone that I have offended on this site - I'll try to be more vague in the future and focus more on my squirrels and space cars and half naked women - no need to protest, I'll accept the burden.
i'VE Learned to accept the fact that there are a few MAGALOMANIAC LOSERS on this site pretending to be all connected and stuff with no real substance (except really bad 3D graphics) and people just need to find out for themselves 'the truth" - and most of the cool peeps have pretty much done so already - oh, i'm talking about "American Idol" NOT THE HOLLYWOOD SUMMiT SHOW - The latter makes superstars out of everyone they feature! And they didn't even pay me to say that! ABSOLUTELY NOT! i sure wish I could watch it everyday! IT'S MY FAVE AND i LOVE EVERYONE INVOLVED IN IT - No really, they're the best EVER! - saved my career that's for sure! I encourage everyone to go on it -
THAT'S ONLY MY HUMBLE OPINION - EVERYONE SHOULD REALLY JUDGE FOR THEMSELVES!
happy April 1st, everyone!
Ha HAAAAA!!
I have rescued my blog - I LEGALLY hacked the system!
- yes! the material was still there - but they never expected an attack on the exhaust port and now the files have been recovered!!!
Prepare for the reposting of all the classics!
"Dr. Brian Washer" "Mud and Blood" "Officer Friendly"
and don't forget "The Republican Squirrels"
and much much more! Yes gang, they tried to stop it but...
it's back like a social disease,
it's the blog of Neil T. Skowronek
coming soon!
<<<<<<read this!!!>>>>>>>
I have a drunken video of myself trashing my studio and it's not like an angry pathetic thing. It is embarrassing but I'll put it on if I get 1000 new peeps -
so go tell two friends, and then they'll tell two friends...and so on...and so on...a-a-and s-s-so on....
From Concentrate a "regular gage" 16mm feature film
"It's in the can" COMING SOON TO A LIBRARY NEAR YOU
written directed and produced by Neil T. Skowronek, renegade Eagle from club #1 in Seattle.
Oh man! I just found the video I shot of me destroying the work art department did for me - oops!
I was really drunk! Probably should have filmed the stuff before I tried to play with it under the influence of beer(urp!)
I think it's just too embarrassing to release it here on yippi -but I suppose if enough people want to see it I'll put it up
I will after 1000 votes from DIFFERENT PEOPLE (NO CHEATING HACKERS!)
SO ALL MY GOOD PEEPS! GET THE 1000'S OF FRIENDS YOU HAVE TO SEND ME AN OFFICIAL REQUEST TO AIR THE DRUNKEN DIRECTOR VIDEO AND I'LL DO IT! IF YOU DON'T...i WON'T and you can't make me, so there!
I got the first stack of cans back from the lab - ohman ohman ohman! I have about three hours of film to concentrate down into about 55min - eeeek!
I'm debating on how to do the editing - I think I'll have to go for it and do it traditionally - gulp-by hand!! that would actually be the easiest way to do it
for me
he heee!

PATCHING IT OVER!
in T minus.....? ? ? ?
prose has its place in everyday life - by definition and preference
no babies conceived tonight - unless they took a sample when I wasn't looking...hmmmmmm
Yesterday
My barista finally chased me out of her establishment with a broom! my wildest fantasy came true!!!
I will miss that coffee, damn...all the other places around here over roast their coffee and I hate that burnt taste.
Usually the kind of person that does that is one of those typical Seattle clones with the bald head and the grey goatee and tiny glasses that always sounds like they're adjusting their hemorroides - hate 'em - they're all suffering from a retarded hypothalamus yet everyone here listens to these idiots because of some built in Freudian complex - that's why the traffic will only get worse here - who the hell thinks that taking 8 lanes on the waterfront and turning it into four lanes will somehow improve traffic - answer: the bald grey goatee bespectacled Seattle crowd, and the silly women that support them...
Today:
Pretty much just started - I think I'll go to bed - oh but Conan is on - so I'll watch that first -
on an additional note - I'm going to have to side with Conan on the whole writer strike thing - Conan has been ON FIYA for the last two days and getting better, and it's all because he is having to improve more
- watch out WGA! it's too easy for anyone to make a movie now as David Selznick said it best anybody can make a movie, it requires no special talent, just the desire to do so.
(just a disclaimer: I finished the script for my film on Oct 31st before the strike began - and I'm the director and producer...so I picketed myself - I pick at myself anyway so I figured why not!)
I'm off beer for awhile - please don't send me any.
I'll go back to the coffee house I abandoned several years ago after that one cute barrista there helped me destroy my marriage (no I didn't cheat, but that didn't matter - I really f__d that up), both her AND my ex have fallen off the map long ago...and the coffee is still good but the stupid biodiesel (look at me - I care about the environment but am taking food out of the mouths of all the starving children overseas for my car) people hang out there - I better check for brooms.
Someone called me cynical the other day - I am very suspicious of the sincerity of their motives...
Tomorrow
Trust me, it's Seattle - most counter help will sneer at you the moment you walk in and keep talking to their vet on the phone about their cat that won't take it's lithium - at the exact moment your coffee withdraw kicks in....
Seriously, isn't your top ramen boiling over?
i realized that in the mending her broken heart, mine was broken in the process -
I've been down this road before, I tried really hard to avoid this, that's probably why it happened...at least mine heals in about two weeks, it just has to break completely first and that was a very slow and painful process. I think the final chunk fell off this morning.
I might pick up some stuff for my new restaurant i'm working on - - - www.tigerloungeseattle.com
Yesterday I got some exercise walking around my basement.
Today I'm making a lot of progress removing a huge booger from my nose - don't worry, i won't eat it - I save them for the I.T. guys (apparently they are trying to clone me or get my genome, or don't eat enough of their own-not sure).
Tomorrow I might just leave my house for the first time I can remember in a long time....It's so much better now that I've taped newspaper up on all the windows.
I intend to repeat this three day pattern for the rest of the year.
I fell asleep and was unable to get the m-80 from my friend to set off in my neighbor's driveway, damn - maybe next year...or the 4th of July.
