AND IT WAS WONDERFUL WHAT I SAW...THE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, AND MANY NEW RESTAURANTS DOWNTOWN, AND, SOMETHING VERY ENCOURAGING...AND WASN'T THAT ONE OF THE HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS DRIVING THE BUS?
I ACTUALLY SAW THE POSSIBILITIES OF MAKING THE MOVIE, "THE BIGGEST AND GREATEST TECHNICOLOR MOVIE IN THE WORLD"...KINDA LIKE, STILL ONE OF MY FAVORITES, "IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD!" AND IT IS! WONDERFULLY MAD!..DID YOU SEE THAT MOVIE? TREAT YOURSELF, AND...YOU WILL RECOGNIZE A FAMILIAR SIGHT, THE PALM TREE LOVERS, WHICH IS THE EXACT LOCALE OF WHAT IS NOW, "IN AND OUT BURGER" ON HOLLYWOOD BLVD. NEAR HOLLYWOOD HIGH...EVERYBODY SEARCHING FOR BURIED TREASURE...NOT REALIZING THAT IN THEIR NEAR FUTURE, IT WOULD BE A FAMILY OWNED BUSINESS THAT WOULD FEED AFFICIANADO BURGER LOVERS AT AFFORDABLE PRICES, INCLUDING THE ENTIRE STUDENT BODY OF HOLLYWOOD HIGH, AND IT'S TEACHERS AND PRINCIPAL OF COURSE.
AND IF YOU HAVEN'T YET SEEN, "REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE", AND THAT POWERFUL SCENE WITH JAMES DEAN CONFRONTS THE MAN PORTRAYING HIS FATHER, JIM BACKUS...I BELIEVE, THE REBEL DID HAVE A CAUSE...I'D HAVE TO CHECK IT OUT AGAIN PERHAPS.
AND THE SITE THAT THEY USED, THE HOLLYWOOD PLANETARIUM, WHERE I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO APPEAR IN A "WONDER WOMAN" EPISODE...PORTRAYING A WHITE HOUSE GUIDE, WITH THE TITLE OF "THE BOMB"...NO PUN INTENDED I HOPE...AND DICK LOWRY, A DIRECTING FELLOW AT AFI, HAD DIRECTED ME IN THE EPISODE...ON THE FUNNY SIDE, WITH AN ACCEPTABLE MEASURE OF BAD TASTE, I HAD THE HABIT OF LAYING A FEW BOMBS, FROM HAVING THE WRONG DIET, SERIOUSLY THOUGH, DIET IS IMPORTANT, AND I KNOW THAT EVERYONE IS PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO THEIR DIETS, I CAN SEE THAT...
YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHO I SAW YESTERDAY, THURGOOD MARSHALL, HE WAS ONE OF THE FIRST NEGRO (THAT WAS THE TERM AT THAT TIME) SUPREME COURT JUDGES, OFFERING A MORE SPIFFY IMAGE THAN MOST OF US CAN REMEMBER AND I'M SURE MRS. THURGOOD MARSHALL IS HAPPY ABOUT THIS AS WELL...AND MY FRIEND MEL WEINBERGER WHEN WE WERE BOTH STRUGGLING TO CAPTURE STARDUM IN ACTING CLASS BACK IN NEW YORK, AND HE'D ALWAYS DO THIS GREAT IMPRESSION OF ONE OF OUR ACTING TEACHER'S, "BILL HICKEY", SMOKING A CIGARETTE, AND MEL'S DAD, IS CASPER WEINBERGER, ALSO A SUPREME COURT JUDGE I BELIEVE, BUT DEFINETLY SOMEONE VERY IMPORTANT, ESPECIALLY TO HIS FAMILY. AND I STILL REMEMBER TO THIS DAY, WHEN MEL BROUGHT ME HOME TO MEET HIS WONDERFUL FAMILY, HIS PARENTS I REMEMBER SMILED ALOT, THEY APPEARED TO BE A HAPPY BUNCH, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE STRIVING FOR, WITH OUR GLOBAL PLAN...FOR EVERYONE IN THE WORLD TO HAVE A HAPPY AND WELL FAMILY, WITH PROPER FINANCES TO SUPPORT THEMSELVES AND EACH OTHER.
AND IT WAS MEL, MY SON, AND ME, WHO HAD MARCHED IN CENTRAL PARK, FOR EITHER THE ENDING OF THE VIET NAM WAR, OR, WAS IT MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.'S ASSASSINATION, WHICH EVER, THAT DAY WE WERE A SMALL FAMILY OF THREE SHARING A HISTORICAL MOMENT IN TIME, A VERY IMPORTANT MOMENT IN TIME.
THERE HAD BEEN A PARTY GOING ON AT THE WEINBERGERS AND HIS PARENTS WERE VERY KIND AND MEL BEING A GOOD FRIEND, WOULD ALWAYS SAY, "YOU CAN TAKE GWEN ANYWHERE", THAT WAS THEN, AND I WILL ONCE AGAIN DEAR FRIEND, MAKE THAT A TRUISM, I HOPE IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN THAT YOU LOSE YOUR WAY, BUT SHOULD YOU, WITH OUR GLOBAL PLAN, YOUR FALL WILL BE BRIEF, BECAUSE YOU HAVE MANY HOLDING ON TO YOU.
THERE ARE JUST SO MANY WONDERFUL NEW THINGS HAPPENING ALREADY IN CALIFORNIA AND ELSEWHERE IN SUPPORT OF OUR GLOBAL PLAN...
AS I HAD MENTIIONED BEFORE, NEW YORK IS ALSO ALIVE WITH CHANGE, SO THE EAST AND WEST COAST ARE NOW UNITING, AND NO MORE WARS WITHIN WARS ARE NECESSARY BECAUSE BOTH LOCATIONS HAVE THEIR OWN SPECIAL FLAVA (INTENTIONALLY MIS-SPELLED)...AND ALL THE STATES BETWEEN, WHICH WE'RE HOPING TO VISIT...AND OF COURSE, BEYOND.
WE'RE ALL LOOKING FORWARD TO MEETING ALL THE NEW MEMBERS OF OUR FAMILY...AND I DO LIKE TO HAVE FUN...I JUST PRIORITIZE...AND THOUGH I'M NAUGHTY, I STILL AM NICE...NO DIFFERENT FROM YOU!
