Scruffy Media

Yes, well I am as I write this.

You see as you might know I am very anti social and have decided to change that. I am stuck in the big city and I might as well start building a life and getting used to this place (and making the best of it).

I have been single and friendless out of spite for my situation (excuse the residule bitterness) for nine years, well 8 years and nine months, soI am getting back into life. Letting people in, trusting people and maybe in time, dating.

I even stopped giving and accepting guifts, well I turned all guifts over to the poor, anyway, yesterday one of the cooks at my icky and temporary job (check out my film “Tedium” on viddler.com, search Tedium or me scruffymedia) offered me a custom made meal instead of the (usually good) staff food. Well, I gratiously acceped it because it is time for me to learn to trust again. Now keep in mind that I am one of those oddballs who dosen’t like there food touched and prefers to make it myself; ya it is wierd, but distrust can be a lonely place.

Anyway, back to the teeth. 3 or 4 years ago my cousin (one of the few people that I willingly let into my life) sent me these chocolate teeth with a note saying “Bite me before I bite you”.

Now that I am letting the sun back into my life I will eat my cousin’s teeth.

Not as exiting as the headline, well maybe I should work for the Enquirer (Ha Ha)

Ps. I have a picture of the teeth in question on Flickr, but I am unsure how to use Flicker, but I am (of course) scruffymedia.

bye

Hi, Tedium is complete and up on Viddler (viddler.com),  just search Tedium, or user scruffymedia. I decided to put it up and just leave it alone, however as I found out, the longer a project, the harder it is to stop tweeking. It comes in at just over 40 minits.

I hope that you will enjoy this look into my world, however I don’t see anyone getting through it, as it is as the title implies, sheer tedium, much as my day at work.

My next film will be “Fat Man and Little Tub”, shorter, but just as odd. It will have nudity, so be prepaired.

I am about to start pre production on “No Wet Garbage Please”, a film about maturbation.

See everyone latter and have a groovey new year!

Glenn

So I hit the pause button thinking that it can’t get worse… I was wrong (1Hr in).

Well the main actor still sucks, but ever since the iterigation this abomination has picked up a bit, I hope that they can build on these few medocre scenes.

Back to it

Glenn

First off, it seems that I have often had a problem with “Blockbuster” movies that I am supposed to like (eg. Topgun).

Now I am only 45 minits into this multi-million dollar work of art, but so far there are only two robots that I care about; the scorpion, becouse I wish that he would kill the speacial forces who are reading the words of this less than fine script, with such lack of believeability and emotion that ones attention is focused on the action. Which is pretty good, now that I think about it.

The other robot that I like is the thin tubular guy on Air Firce One who apparently has the ability to walk around crowds of people and not be seen. Perhaps he borrowed Mr. Potters invisablity cloak.

Well it can’t get worse so I will get back to it, with my coffee, my candy and a tweezer to occationaly pull out nose hairs so I have a chance of staying awake through it.

Glenn

Wow, it seems that loging on to my site is almost impossable.  Anyhoo; here I finnaly am.

By the way my schedual for Dec 24rth to Dec 30th; I am off until thursday when I start at 12 (pm), through Saturday.

My film is finnished, unfortunatly I don’t know where to host it, hopefully I can put it on here soon.

Have a happy

Glenn

Well, I haven’t posted in a while, but with mt camera not recording sound and my main computer pooping out, I should have more time (until I find real work and replace my crap with not as crappy crap).

So I rented a computer and yet I still can’t get on Ustream to do my shows, Very strange.

The job search is going well, and I am getting alot of interviews; well interviews with strange things happening.

I was at the second interview for a production line job, and all was going well, until I said that I was (for 10 months) a psychiatric seceretary; well sir, this guy jumped up, ran out of his office and held the main door open saying “You know where the busses are, you know where the busses are”.

The beauty and folly of people is that we are all (at times) very wierd.

Well this morning my first interview was going well… well mostly. When it gets to that point in the interview when money is disgussed be cool and remain calm, laughing is okay if the offer is very low and you don’t mind burning your bridges.

Under no cercumstances, do what I did. The wage offered was so high that with out thinking I very loudly yelled “cha ching”! I am not expecting a call back.

Well, the search continues.

Glenn

Well I haven’t kept up my podcasts recently (equipment problems), but as for my weightloss podcast, here is a preview. I spent a week gorging on junk as opposed to my new veg lifestyle, and I thought that I was going to die, but I think that I am finally over junk food.

Hi;

I haven’t put out new podcasts in over three weeks, as my camera wont record sound and has to be replaced; and if you remember my sparking laptop, well there was an electrical smell and it is , well it sleeps with the fishes.

I have decided to go back to full time work, do my Scruffy Media thing on the side and get some new equipment. I was going to get a co-signer for a loan and try using good equipment for a change but I don’t think that I want to have anyone controlling me (even slightly).

What do you guys and gals think, should I sell part of my soul for good equipment, or should I shut sown, save up and start up again in a few months with crappy equipment.

Strangely I am still having fun; and I will try to get some podcasts out soon.

Glenn

Ps. My live shows are going well, on my Ebay show (Knockoffs, ripoffs and the Ebay show), I had 4 viewers, cool huh.

Hi;

Well I filmed an instructional video about finding work on line (long story), and as I found out, my camera doesen’t record sound anymore. I can always voice over.

Guess what else, my laptop is starting to smell like burning electrics, witch is probably not good.

So I guess that I will be putting everything on hold while I find something full time and buy some new equipment; oh well, stuff happens.

In my video (wich I will post as soon as I finnish it, and learn how), I only emailed introductions, so if the companys didn’t email back asking for my employment history, they probably weren’t serious.

Well, all 4 places that I applied to emailed back and requested more information, and two interviews were setup and attended today. Both places that went to were crappy, but it is interesting that I had a 50% success rate.

Any way that was my day and unfortunatly I have to go to (paying, temp) work tomorrow; as for my podcasts and live shows, I might have to put them on hold for a while, but I will will be back, and it will be with my own money (which will make it even better).

Have a groovy day and speak to you latter

Hi;

Sorry that I have no new content; I haven’t even done any new podcasts in almost three weeks. Thankfully this seed of a new perminant site is going fine; however I could not upload my “wp-config.php” file, so as to what is going on, it is anybody’s guess.

No, I mean I planned this and I am an expert diserving of your devotion and money.

Well as long as it works. I will work on making it look less wordpressy and more ? non-Wordpressy?

Have a happy day
