An Open Message For Visitors--All Are Welcome
Now Playing: The Strawbs--"Sad Young Man"
There's been a recent kerfuffle (my first!) that makes me want to more openly affirm the purpose of this website.

Above everything else, it's to maintain my sanity. It's like talking to oneself but with other people reading (listening?). In the course of doing so, I may occasionally let loose the odd "blue word." This may cause distress for some folk, which is unfortunate but unavoidable. Those who find themselves appalled by such language are still very welcome at the Clown's Death Rattle, but have only themselves to blame from here on in if they are surprised at the chance obscenity that shows up in these pages. Thanks for understanding, and enjoy whatever the hell it is you people find to enjoy here.

On a brighter note, I got a kitchen staff job interview call at an Ann Arbor restaurant last night while watching Derek Jarman's Jubilee (1977). It's on Wednesday, and the movie, while better known than Caravaggio (1986), wasn't as good, I thought.

Cinema Guild showed this Sunday afternoon. The first paragraph of the review is a classic.

Oy vey. Kerfuffle, indeed. As far as I know, my dad doesn't know about my website--or if he does, he hasn't told me he knows. Blissful ignorance works both ways. I think you're really brave to let your parents in on what goes on inside your head--I wish sometimes I could do the same.

Well, my dad's never had a problem with it--he's emailed me to say he enjoys the blog and is happy he has a way to know what's going on with me. I figured that, even though something like this was likely to happen by letting my mom know about it, it wouldn't be fair on her if I didn't let her know about it, and it would also go against my own principles in cutting people out just because they aren't open to other people's feelings and opinions. If she wants to stay away, then that's her decision. It's like going to someone's house for a party--you don't start yelling at people, especially the host, even if you're the host's mom.
