So anyway, regulars readers will note no Weekend Whirligig was past last Friday. After all that Turkey coma and for some a great deal of traveling, was there any need for one.
But anyway, some important notes that should be made.
DAMN THE MAN, SAVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD...Those in favor of so-called progress have been gaining the upper hand. The Zoning board has approved Venice One; the Manayunk Neighborhood Council will be appealing that one. Bully for them. Secondly, it looks like Germany Hill will be the target of rape by developers. The area has been a hidden piece of green space for more than 60 years. Should be some fireworks on this one.
HOLIDAY HEROICS...This Year's Christmas Story manuscript is freshly completed. It goes before a secret editing committee before submission to the Executive editor. It comes to a whopping 13-page, 7,038 word count. Its author, i.e. ME, feels that serialization may be an option. But we'll check with our illustrator to smooth out any deadline rushes. The storyline is still being kept under wraps but is titled "Nightmare on Noel" So far, reactions from the editing committee have been positive.
AND WE DANCED...We got to see one of favorite bands over the weekend at the Electric Factory, The Hooters. A great band out of Philadelphia and a huge influence on my life. The band and their opening act, The A's sounded great. Even the new stuff is good. After the show, guests got a copy of the new album Time Stands Still. And most exciting is that Pierre Robert of WMMR took a sound bite of me asking how the show was.
So anyway, back to work...
