This album is part of a core memory; my parents had a party with some students (they were teaching theatre at the time) in 1967 (I was three) and I danced along, making people laugh. Someone wearing a derma wax nose lost said nose over the stereo, bringing that album to an early end...

Just because I am lazy and haven’t changed it in a year, not because it’s the sixtieth anniversary of the album, here’s a photo from my office.

A photo showing a picture of a mysterious bedroom, a Gibson Guitars clock, and a framed copy of The Beatles album, Revolver.

In an effort to outstay my welcome even further - here's yet another four entries from Volume 3 my 'Beatles Film Posters Series'. There's now 63 entries. You can see them all, and also buy prints, over in my shop.

Guys, I'm breaking the thread for a moment. This should be a regular reminder: Make somebody feel seen. A nurse, a teacher, the dish busser at your favorite coffee shop, somebody with whom you share a slender but real connection. There will come a time when those moments are precious to you.

At your next meal, take a second to think about the people working long hours in HOT 100° temps to put food on your table. They're not just statistics. They're real people who can't avoid the heat in an air conditioned house or office. #WeFeedYou

If you gargled iodine, drank bleach, swallowed hydroxychloroquine, injected Formula 409, gobbled horse dewormer, or shined a flashlight up your own ass to prevent COVID-19, you don't get an opinion on Dr. Fauci.

It's a matter of taste, but I've never understood the derision some people had for this show. I liked every season in spite of some discomfort, as in any drama. Carmen has a monologue in the finale that encapsulates my feelings about why I stepped away from directing, so that hit extra hard.
