hi Davis nytime wants to have me makea free acct to see thearticle..Iam
paranoid ofthe traps to get the info...I didnt buy the 905 disound of
Les paulk gibson Guitars from 899.00 to 89.-- as it seems to good to be
true..a dealer would buy them up for that price... eventhough my2 K 1976
les paul was stolen beforea show in 1976,,,, i resisted as im 67andi
dont need another guitar buti sure was tempted,,,as thatwould bea great
deal....
I felt betteri was able to resist the temptation.. Sam ash was a great
companyin NYC but scammers could be posed as them these days whoo knows
ina time when everone is downsizing everything..seeks honest business is
like thinking likeyouare back inthe early days of sears whenyou got good
customer service and good produicts\
the film just sounded to me like it may bea novel pne and Francis seemed
to havea genuine passion..most artist who do theart fromthe heart are
often notcommercially liked as just like Love it self its alla matter of
each persons interpitation
justas some painters were not discovered tillafter they passed...
thats why so many artists get foumd bya handful of collectors.... its
funny,,, with my own life wheni get few likes or facebook friend
orotherplatforms i ampver joyed with love...as i figure i am touching
nerves and souls more then when iam thepopular flavor ofthe day...as
theonly one i hope i impress inthe big picture is not the Robots of ai
so if God approves of my banters and mumbles thats fine for me not money
not a million likes orshares.. butifit helps Gods plan and jesus and
can help a few souls find peace and healing i have served my purpose in
My mind...
I keep thinkingof King Solomon who said allis vanity and grasping for
the wind
with the cirrentworkld events i have no idea whats next withPolitics or
economy or the movie industry...
I have downsized my media toa few news shows PBS and less as it help[s
kee[ yjeanxiety lower by prayerand asking God to help those around the
world
all i can say is just sleep and exposure to posotive things feels better
then the negative media so normal each day butit is hard tostop old
habits..likesmoking, drinking,drugs..food like fast food... butit can be
dome you justy go inreverse .it saves money spending and costs..so i try
to cut costs and buyless. eatless... and listen to silence more and
listen to Gods wisdome by lettingmy mind rest and allowing God to speak
...the message i getis forgive theones that are scammers and
respecttheones we lostand give thanks for them as i believe theywill
meet is again in Heaven
thats about it... love is theanswer to allwars all hate and all
countrys...
peace and love to all

I've read that it's an experimental movie with more in common with
Picasso and Pollock than with Kubrick, Malick and Warhol. You're
supposed to figure out its deeper meanings on your own.
A standing ovation at Cannes to me is the same as what happens after
every Broadway show, regardless of quality. ("Blonde" got a 14-minute
ovation at Venice and I thought it supremely overrated.) Coppola is
revered, but everything I've read - and it's a lot - indicates it's
even MORE impenetrable than the monolith in 2001, so puzzling that no
one will distribute it. It's sad for any creative to put their heart
into something, hoping it will be universally lauded when in fact,
mold-breaking art is better off made to please yourself vs. caring
what people think. He still envisions IMAX screenings and a wide
release at AMC/Regal and that's not going to happen unless a
benefactor who spent more than the $120 million Coppola bankrolled
himself - rolls the dice and puts out another misleading trailer akin
to how early audiences rushed to see "Poor Things," which experienced
a fair number of walkouts this past winter despite that movie being a
straight-forward sexual romp with surreal imagery. Not for everyone so
the hope is the rest of us will see it via a streamer. -d.
