MYTE'S FIRST POST

Here's my first post. Hope it explains everything. I know we'll all miss Sole. I sure do. Heck. Maybe, it'll be like Tinkerbell. If we all just believe, maybe he'll read this, whereever he is, and make a comment or get in touch with a post.
Oh yea. As mentioned in the post, a lot of folks I know will contribute. But this ain't no team blog, what with lettin' those foo ..., er friends be able to post with out my oversite. So all posts'll have my name, cause I want strong edatorial control. Well, here we go:

Hi. I’ve been looking into this blog thing. And it seems like it’d be good for me, you know, professionally and stuff.
Oh. Hold on. I guess I should introduce myself.
Okay then. I’ll do that.
Umm. Hi. I’m I. Myte Slam Myham. And yes. You may have heard of me.
I am indeed a film maker of some repute. And if you haven’t heard of me. Well. I don’t like to brag. But, yea. You may have seen some of my films.
There’s The Seventh Cents. May have seen that. Did okay with that one. Oh. Then came Unbankable. Might remember it, ya might not.
Skids. That was a personal favorite. Liked Skids. Hope you all did too. Then I did The Bilge not long ago.
And my latest flick, opening soon, is Daisy on The Ladder. I wrote, directed, produced, edited, scored. And was also foley artist. I love doin’ the foley art. And in some locations I will actually be selling tickets.
Now, you might be sayin’ to yourself at this juncture. You might say, “I. Myte, it sounds like, you know with the films you listed, that somethin’ kind of, well, derivative is goin’ on.”
And you’d be right. And that’s what I want here on my blog is an astute, film-conscious audience.
Yes indeed. Derivative is the word. And let me tell ya, I don’t begrudge that other fella for takin’ off on my work. It’s like flattery, a compliment even that he is so influenced by my ovar(is that right?).
I mean hey. I’ve been blessed, I know that. Not all can be gifted such as myself. It’s like the sayin’ goes. “Those who can, do. Those who can’t, well. Um. They do. Um. Derivative shit, stuff like that.” At least I think that’s how the saying goes.
Okay. So I’ve introduced myself. And at this point, or maybe before even, you might be askin’, “Hey, where’s that Sole fu …, er, dude at; what gives here?”
Well folks. That’s a long sad story. There are many of us who love Sole. And we were all like real happy when he said he was gonna start a blog. Good ta see him with some focus and some structure to his life.
But. Well. Maybe. Okay, you might have noticed a couple of entries and then like ‘poof’, nothin’.
Let’s see. How shall I put this? Hmmm. I guess I’ll put it like this. Sole needs to go to rehab.
And believe me, if we can find that fu …, er, cat. We’re gonna make sure he gets there.
Nope. We can’t find him. He’s ‘blown the scene’ as the hipster lingo goes. We don’t know where he is.
Sort of, that is. I mean we know this. He called my place. But he blocked the call so the Caller ID tells me nothin’. But we know he’s in a shelter. At least he told me that.
But, then on the other hand. When I asked, when I said, “So dude, you mean a shelter like somewhere in town?” His startling and dismaying reply rang like jello through spine of my soul. (See, you’re gonna get some pretty fancy writin’ in this blog now.) He said, “No dude. I’m in a shelter like somewhere in the U.S.”
So, um. We’ve got our work cut out for us if we’re gonna find him. But believe me, as soon as I get my next coupla films in the can, I’m gonna be on it. Oh. Yea. That’s director talk, “ … in the can”.
But one thing is fortunate and this ought to explain the other big question or questions you might have. Before Sole took off, I was able to get him to sell me his blog.
So. It’s my blog now. And things will change. Most important is the changes in quality which will go up extremely noticably.
But of course I’m a writer and director. Much more possessed of talent and ableness than that poor Sole sad sack. Who is my friend don’t get me wrong.
Well. I think this is a good move for me. My advisers agree. I mean like this Internet thing is taking off. And this is a way for me to get in touch with my movie public in a more direct mode.
And really, I love you all. Want to see your replies and thoughts and praise and stuff. But please. Don’t be sendin’ me a bunch of scripts and stuff. LOL. You crazy fans, you.
Also, this will be more than just movies. I want to branch out. I want to like evolve.
So I will write of many things. Of course their will be my rye and whitty observations. But also I will be commenting seriously on serious matters and issues of the day.
Then. Sometimes. I will just sort of say what’s on my mind and entertain you thusly with thoughts on life. And living. And stuff.
Also my advisers tell me I should try to ‘monetize’ my blog. And that’s a hard word, isn’t it? “Monetize”. I think it means to make it like that French painter or something.
Anyhow, I’m supposed to mention that if you see ads here, and I’m lookin’ into getting some, well please. Just click on those bad babies. And okay, yea. Buy some shit from the people. But most important. Click!!! Just click, hit the ‘back’ arrow and then click again. And just keep clickin’. For God’s sake click like one of them chickens that play baseball for feed! I’d be awfully greatful.
Oh!!! One more thing. This. Is also. To be. A forum. One for many to weigh in. With weight and gravyty of course. For this is to be a serious blog.
Now. I will be doin’ most of the writing. And a far sight more than that Sole fella. I mean unless, I suddenly need, like rehab or something. LOL. I kid the emotionally unstable. But seriously folks. There will be appearances by others of my acquaintance with their thoughts and observations and things like that. And these will be labeled clearly of course. So you don’t get confused, etc. Oh yea! In case you’re wonderin’. No. I’m not the one who wrote that movie review that Sole put up. The one about Sling Blade. I mean, how could you even think that? Being an autour my comments would have been pithy and informative. As you will see when I write about film and World events and just about everything.
Well. That’s about it for this time. Here’s to great blogging and livly interaction among us all. And a big salute to my friend, Sole. Requisite en peach. Oh wait. He’s not dead. Just sort of disappeared. My bad. Whew, I’m tired.
