Get Fighted
On Friday I ventured to Middlebrook Clearview Cinema to see The Fighter with some friends.
Mark Wahlberg, Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Melissa Leo - such a great team of actors. The casting was stunning. Not one point in the film did I notice they were acting. (Their Boston accents were nearly spot-on, too.) The cinematography was also beautiful. Bravo, David O. Russell.
I think everyone walked out of that theater boxing the air and showcasing moves they didn't have.
The conclusion of this shotty review: worth your $$$.

Things That Rhyme with Orange
Music is shaping the shapes in my brain. First it was Streetlight creating skank-pits out of midnight. Now it's Death From Above pulling a synth on a red Flyer wagon. But ultimately, when the sound stops, and the noise evaporates, I'll find myself in the same shape I started as. A cube of organs and fluids sitting at an uncomfortable desk in a room that smells like unemployment and depression. Desperate. Alive. Intelligent. Unsure of where to go, what to do, how to get there. All-time low. I am gone.

Flash me!
Good news everyone!
Want an excerpt from my forthcoming Only Human? Here's one about Kanye West over at The Northville Review.
I've also got a new flash piece up in today's One Forty Fiction. It's called 'Taking My Right To Live' and its part of their 'Human Rights' theme this week.
It was inspired by Brett East Ellis's American Psycho. Here is the trailer for the movie:
Hope you enjoy.
Big news a-coming for da glenjamin. Suspense-high-five!

I got knifed.
Oh snap!
Trick With A Knife had a contest earlier this week. They were giving away a copy of xTx's latest chapbook He Is Talking To The Fat Lady. You were supposed to email Nate, over at TWAK, and
tell him why you deserved it. He would then forward the email to the ever-so-sexy, ever-so-anonymous, xTx and she would choose who she thought was worthy. So I shot an email and figured what the hell. Then...
boom.
I won.
I never win anything. So this makes me smile.
Huzzah!
Now go over the TWAK and say hello.
