Paul's Corner

While I am gone I thought you all could share your weight loss secrets - how you did it, exercise regime, diets that work and those that didnt etc

over to youse....

I start my choreographic work tomorrow and I fear that I will be missing from here for the next month. If I can get the time I will pop in but I will be puterless :(

I held my first beer dinner last night. It went very well, I was pleased, the patrons were pleased - we had about 44 people. The good thing is after last night I now know what and how I can do it better so the next one should be good!

rotoscoped??? what on earth does that mean? and does it hurt? If you mean something like motion capture they did - and I would think that they have actually used me underneath a robot or two. (this was to Cat in response to her post on the previous post)

Hopefully I will get some more choregraphic work from the film especially in the States then I could pop in for a visit - Party at the Goddess's house!!! and then breakfast at Millies!

I was and still am pretty chuffed with the article Cat put on the web site. I didnt think I would get a mention, hey its a big movie with a big star so to get a mention and a compliment for the Robot movement was both a surprise and an honour.

It makes me hopefull that I will get some more of that type of work and hopefully in the States. Fingers crossed.

I spoke with the director of the film this morning. He said he was happy with how the movie turned out. I am going to the premiere next week so look forward to seeing it.

Yes I did devise the movement for the robots. (Someone asked in the other post - I know most of you know what I did) I am credited in the movie as the "Movement Consultant". As I came up with the basics of the Robots movement I am excited to see what they actually used in the film. But from what I have heard regarding feed back such as the robots had a dance type feel to them then I am thinking maybe the animators used my ideas. I will see soon!

or is it true to say that the guys seem to be getting a bit of a hiding on the site of late??

Iron nerves in deed. The fact of the matter is that us blokes really are a simple uncomplicated folk. Take Jo(in Texas)'s list and I need say nothing more.

As far as women go I cant work you out but that is okay I am dedicating my life to working one of you out - my wife, and am pretty sure that I will get there eventually or die trying. She on the other hand my have me worked out which may or may not be a good thing. It usualy means she knows how to get me to do things!! But some times I dig my heals in and just plain refuse - like gardening!

Yep - naked, chicken wings, a six pack and dont block the tele - sounds like heaven to me!!

I went through a period of cooking naked for Andrea - pre kids of course - thought I would give her a treat! Not such a great idea when you are doing a fry up....mmmmm you get some oil burns in some pretty delicate places!
And before anyone talks about the hygiene aspect of cooking naked let me say I am a dedicated hand washer. Once you have chopped up chillies and then had a little scratch somewhere you dont do it again and you also tend to remember to wash your hands before and after scratching, chopping and cleaning!!!

So often I sit looking at my screen blankly as it blankly looks back at me. Me like it has a lot going on behind the facade of nothingness. It shines forth, like me but does nothing, like me. All this stuff is going on, electrodes warming up, tubes ready willing and able, millions of colours ready to grace the screen and transport me to worlds hither to unseen but the screen blankly goes no where, like me.

I look at the screen my head swirling with a myriad of thoughts, feelings -(feelings sadly being a hangover!!) and emotions and there is just too damn much for me to let out. It is like a Pandoras box. If I dare let a little out I will be swept away by a torrent of thoughts, feelings and emotions that will ravage you, my dear reader and leave me breathless and empty. And worse!!! I am still try to think of what the worse is but believe me it would be pretty bad!

Often I sit here looking at you looking at me as you wonder "when is he going to write something" and I wonder - how can I write all of this that I am feeling? It is not safe, sane or appropriate. How can I even start to type what I am trying hard to not feel and trying even harder to keep at bay that which I am.

I miss you.

Yet I am so full as to be bursting at the seems and in being so full I excise my fullness and thus sit before this blank screen feeling well emptied. Reflecting back it's emptiness and not knowing where to start I get up and leave this room to put the rubbish out and dont return.

What is your most important sense?
