Christmas in Illinois

THIS ISLAND HAIR will now take a brief break (yes, after only one week), I am leaving for Illinois to have Christmas and New Year's with the Carriere family. Maybe I can post something from Illinois, don't touch that dial!

I been consuming much snacks that I oughtn't; I feel like some class of shambling, capering bottomfeeder. Soon that will all change, I understand that we'll be having a deep-fried turkey for Christmas - thems good eatin'!

N. and I watched my "Spider Baby" laser disc last night. Apparently the "Footage from the 30th Anniversary cast and crew reunion at the Nuart Theatre in Los Angeles" is also available on the DVD. Check out the back of my 1994 haircut - while director Jack Hill is interviewed you can see me in the background trying to elude further conversation with actor Sid Haig.

I hope y'all have phenomenal Christmas and New Years holidays. During the holidays last year I was so miserable. Little did I know that 2005 would bring unlikely triumphs and long, proud strides in a New Golden Age. I am transmitting good vibes to you, let me know if you want me to recommend some holiday reading.
