I’m not sure it’s ever been done before, but as a promo for my book, The Starving Artist’s Diet, I made this special video.  I want to thank my wife and kids for helping me put this together.  Also, it was nice of them to humor me and laugh.  I got the music from... »

Lot o’Shakespeare

Lot o’Shakespeare

It’s Shakespeare, lottery style… with a little Bingo thrown in.  Actually, it wasn’t really Bingo, but IAGO, named after the villain from Othello. I have to admit, that I probably haven’t sat through this much Shakespeare since I was a grad student in Virginia and that was a production of Twelfth Night Beach Boys... »

Not a Peep

IndyFringe started last night and Mass Ave. was hopping.  As I walked down the street, there was a moment where I felt like I’d been transported to New York or Chicago with the architecture, the smells, and eclectic people.  It was a nice feeling. I chose to see Not a Peep at Theatre on... »

iNDY fRINGE

Tonight is the beginning of ten days of “fringe” theater in Indianapolis.  This should be fun.  And from what I can see, there is a little something for everyone.  There are comedies and dramas.  There are one-man/woman shows.  There are shows with adult content and several without.  There are even shows that are kid... »

A Moving, Spiritual Experience

Monday, August 16, 2010
By Jackodile

Creating a Kickstarter campaign has been bit of an emotional roller-coaster. I’ve been excited, happy, humbled, irritated, surprised, exasperated, and resolute. One of the thing I didn’t really expect in launching this campaign was the resulting inner struggle it would create. It has made me very introspective. It has made me think deeply about... »

The Starving Artist’s Diet on Kickstarter.com

Each day I get one step closer to seeing my first book go to press.  It’s been a bigger project than I first imagined, but I know it’s also a better project than I first imagined.  And while it is not going to be a book for all times, it should bring a smile... »

The Economy of Fireworks

The Economy of Fireworks

Something’s wrong here.  Why is it when fireworks should be selling like hotcakes, stores are offering “buy one get five free deals?”  Usually, at the holidays, the corresponding products are overpriced with no discounts to be found.   At Valentines Day, roses are a ripoff as well as that box of candy.  As Easter approaches,... »

The Problem with Sports

The Problem with Sports

The problem with sports is the refs.  They screw-up so many calls.  They ruin perfect games, miss the big penalties, and call fouls that are only imagined. The problem with sports is the players.  They’re a big bunch of overpaid whining babies who have a ton of athletic ability and very little common sense. ... »
