New Movie “Tin Man” Shooting in Vancouver

Think “Wizard of Oz” on crack. That was what I was told when my agent submitted me for this movie starring Richard Dreyfuss. They are looking for a lot of military types, a la “Mad Max beyond Thunderdome”. So what do I do? I shave my head clean, leave the facial hair and dress up [...]

My Letter to Alcohol

Dear Alcohol, First and foremost, let me tell you that I’m a huge fan of yours. As my friend, you always seem to be there when needed.

Kent’s (Chinese) Kitchen

Was in the area of 41st and Victoria in Vancouver today and dropped into one of my favorite value local eateries, Kent’s Kitchen.

Don’t Mess With The Chinese!

Chinese tortures A young man was wandering, lost, in a forest when he came upon a small house. Knocking on the door he was greeted by an ancient Chinese man with a long, gray beard. “I’m lost,” said the man. “Can you put me up for the night?” “Certainly,” the Chinese man said, “but on [...]
