Pez Outlaw, My Brain Is Killing Me #pezoutlaw

Please Watch My Emmy Winning Movie, The Pez Outlaw on Amazon Prime & Peacock. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Best actor at SXSW.

It's My Story.


How do I share this?

No context because this is all I'll share.
Sick as she was, there she stood with compassion n a wet washcloth after I finished puking.
There are things in life that touch you deeply.

Shadows of Darkness

There are days
Days when darkness rules
Grinding away at your soul
Days when the stories don't help

I've lost all faith in the dream
Searching for new meaning
Old amusements no longer sooth
Leaving the mind adrift

Wrestling for meaning
Wishing for purpose
The dream has died
How do you release

Days become months become years.
Let me know when we land.
I've said most things twice.
There was supposed to be a different narrative by now.

3yrs - so many promises
I hate reality
I pray crazy returns soon
Tell me again why I said yes

*****************************


Help, Robots n computers have taken over.
I fear that my mind is no longer my own.
Anonymity is my only salvation.

These young tech folks keep creating things that make humanity more n more obsolete.
They do it for profit n the buzz from creation without regard for the results.
Skills needed to survive are lost with each passing day.

I now understand the Amish.
Just because you can does not mean you should.
I pray we all wake up before it's to late.


Robots are Satan's Spawn n the sooner we realize it the better.
My goal is to start an anti Robot movement.
? What is the ist or ism for being antirobot. 


Randomly Generated

Does a man with a ponytail have the right to criticize a man with a man-bun?
Probably not.
 





My hope is to share a world with you that you are maybe not aware of.
Bonus, when it amuses me to tell it.

Yesterday "New Laurie" said I was crackers, made her laugh in a good way.
Most people don't comment, is it avoiding the obvious?

Kathy said, you do realize n see it, right.
Had to tell her, actually no. 

We've covered this, so I'll only make a brief mention.
A crazy person perceives the world through his eyes not yours, so that world seems normal unless someone points out the misconception.
I fabricate the world that I find pleasing n accept "normal's".

Why is that a thing?
I do not understand "normal's" n have no idea about there world, I just accept them n it.
We the crazies just try to fit in your world best we can so as not to stand out any more than necessary.
So the thing that shocks us isn't that you might think we are crackers, what surprises us is that we thought we were doing a better job at fitting in.
In previous posts I've referred to this gap between our efforts to fit n us not as slippage.

The truth is most people around us are to polite to point out the slippage.
So it can be a bit of a Whoa BuBBa when someone points it out as we are rattling on about something that amuses us.
This gap of perception can be disconcerting.

Life is performance art, write your own narrative or it will be written for you if at all.
Don't bother to try n figure out my politics or hidden meanings, I'm schizophrenic I believe both sides equally.
I also disbelieve both sides equally. 
I can pretend to care if needed.

Good Dog
Billy Cuttin Dog

I just realized yesterday that for the first time that I know of in 50yrs I have a dog that is training me.
Billy Dog (Great Dane - female) is teaching me cues of communication.
Billy understands my language n what I'm asking her, her problem was I didn't understand her reply.
Smart as Billy is she decided that I might understand pantomime. 
So now when I ask her if she wants to go outside, she either happily goes or looks me square in the eyes n lays down.
I find this fascinating, Billy is designing a language so that she can communicate with me.

Billy Dog is extremely smart, she is always thinking n observing her world to find how to be useful.
Billy spent her 1st year somewhere else chained to a tree.
A very nice young man bought her when he saw it ($100.00) n brought her to me.
All Billy dog wants is to be a good dog.

Billy Dog is very observant, she's noticed changes n has decided taking care of Mom is her new job.
Billy is also working on her skills with horses.
Mom or I use a rough voice near a horse n Billy is there.
Billy knows where horses belong n she wants them to remember where they belong n go where they are supposed to go.
I see potential in Billy Dog's horse skills so I give her some latitude to find her way to useful.

The other day some horses were being potlickers to catch, as usual I told the miscreants if they didn't get in line I'd call Billy Dog.
They did not, so I did.
Billy Dog ran a line back n forth cutting them to a very small area, Works For Me.
This may have been a fluke, but I'm gonna build on it.
I see potential "Billy Cuttin Dog".

People say, is that a thing?
You know cause they've heard of herding dogs etc but not a cuttin dog.
Well if there is such a thing as a cuttin horse n there is, then there can be such a thing as a cuttin dog, cause Billy Dog invented it.
Remember, Great Dane were created by crossing Mastiff's n Greyhounds, so Billy Dog is extremely fast.
You thought Jordan had air time, Billy Dog can put it to shame.

The horses know who Billy Dog is, so when I threaten them with Billy Dog, they usually get right.
Disclaimer.
Billy Dog never touches a horse in any way, that's forbidden.

Billy Dog is destined to be one of the Best Dogs I've ever had, she has a lot of potential.
Billy Dog is always thinking n Billy Dog is always watching. 

4sale

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention.
Somebody is running a dog training video on this blog post.
I know how n have done the acceptable methods of dog training. 
Sit, stay, Heel, Blah Blah Blah.
My methods of training have evolved.
My number 1 goal is to save as much of the puppy as possible.

The training method I like best is conversational.
To observers it appears that I'm never training because my methods are just a continuous conversation with the dogs.
Recognized dog training is measured in weeks n months, my methods go on for years.
We communicate n move along at a very relaxed n leisurely pace.
Hell, I don't even care if my dogs know sit or lay on comand, not even relevant.
My goals are environmental n cohabitation training.
We talk.

I like to let a dog have a few quirks.
Example.
Billy Dog likes to dig really deep holes, it gives her great joy.
In the grand scheme of things, why in hell should this bother me.
I guide her areas of digging then encourage her to enjoy.
I've got a tractor, every so often I refill them n she gets the pleasure of beginning again.

Are my dog's well trained n well behaved?
Most visitors think so n even comment how well behaved they are.
Close enough for baseball.

Ying n Yang

The yang in that ying is PO/Proby Dog.
Proby is a "NUT".

Proby Dog has her fan base which seeks her out.
Po will be in one of her "I vant to be alone" moods n folks will walk way outa there way to pet her.
Proby Dog was never meant to be top dog or any kind of leader in our little pack.
The responsibility was thrust upon her after Rudy passed.
Po does not want the job, she's pushing Billy Dog to take that bullet instead of her.

Proby liked being a puppy for 4yrs.
Told you in a previous post about Po's fetish for TP.
Po also likes to carry things around, Mom's shoes, blankets, towels etc.
Pretty much anything.

Proby Dog is also a stone cold thief, cell phones, keys, brushes.
You leave it low enough for her to steal it n your just askin for it.
I warn n warn people but they keep leaving there stuff laying around.

Lastly Proby Dog has no idea of the meaning of the word no.
Po says, "what is this strange word you use, NO".
"I've never heard this word before".
N, I haven't the heart to explain it to her.

Proby is a pretty large Sprite/Free Spirit.
I think I went to far with Po on this whole save the puppy training method.
What am I gonna do?
Proby Dog was never destined to lead.
Po was always meant to be "OH Poby".

The plan is to buy Proby a puppy to raise.
NEW RUDY!

Pez Outlaw World Tour #pezoutlaw

Please Watch My Emmy Winning Movie, The Pez Outlaw on Amazon Prime & Peacock. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Best actor at SXSW.

It's My Story.


I've always thought that a European tour of all my old Pez haunts would be great fun.
Just load a bus and off we go???????

For me the trip would start n end with a few days at the Raba Hotel in beautiful downtown Gyor Hungary. I can smell the Pizza now.

The itinerary would include road trips to 
Traun Austria headquarters of Pez international
Gyoroplaste the plastics plant in Hungary
The packaging plant in Hungary
The old packaging plant n yellow house
Kolinska in Slovenia the old packaging plant
Ormoz Slovenia the old plastics plant

For the brave of heart we could travel to Croatia
Old plastics plant n Vucko

As a suggested option for attire
tshirts that have printed on them "I buy Pez"
in Hungarian for Hungary
and in Slovenian for Slovenia.
tshirts to be worn at all times in respective regions when walking around
you are targeting home workers  who may still have stuff left in garages from assembly days
remember Cash is King

of all the things in life that are possible this trip would rank high.
I may never attend another Pez Convention, but I would do this.
no fee to me, just airfare room n board/food. important note, I eat a lot. like not a couple slices of Pizza, a whole large pizza just for me.
Good rule of thumb double your idea of food consumption.

added note, I would also be inviting the/that Documentary  film maker.

I nominate Jon Hicks n Tina Christison Gunsauls to be in charge. A thing does not have to be based in reality to have fun thinking n talking about it.
We'd definitely need to bring Bail Money.I might also need a body guard.
I believe that there might be a few contentious moment, but hell I'm game if you are.

On second thought, I think I'd better bring Billy Dog. 

I need to learn how to stay in my own lane, so that my work compliments not detracts or distracts from others.
That's a really hard lesson to learn, I'll be doing great then whamo I go off the rails and just take it to far. 


After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.

Pez Outlaw, 74yr old anxiety attack over twitter.#pezoutlaw

Please Watch My Emmy Winning Movie, The Pez Outlaw on Amazon Prime & Peacock. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Best actor at SXSW.

It's My Story.


Last weekend I watched a TV show that was about young people obsessed with there online presence and achieving large numbers of followers that were being murdered over there vanity.
This troubled me and started a few days of self reflection.

I started worrying that I might also have succumbed to this teenage online life preoccupation.
I can dress it up with my cause (Pez Outlaw) or how I'm using this as therapy.
This might be the intent but am I becoming obsessed with gaining followers?

I enjoy mentions, retweets and the number of views I'm getting but have I strayed from my true goal?
Am I allowing the unimportant to confuse my purpose.
Blah, Blah, Blah, metrics of penetration.

My initial mission statement at the Asylum was that I'm talking to an entity that I do not believe is real.
I do not wish to engage anyone, this is a solo quest into the cyber world.
In short, poor mans therapy.
Have I strayed from that?

Notes from the Asylum is supposed to be about my attempt to sort through my brain and make sense of my thoughts.
I'm not supposed to care if anybody reads these posts.
I'm supposed to write as though you all are not real or looking.

Was that ever true or am I just a teenager seeking fame?

I'm also enjoying things like the below, way to much.
Steven Glew
Works at Acme Inc
Lives in Bad Clown Town
5,600 followers
And the fact that Notes From The Asylum will reach 500,000 views in a couple months.

Unrepentant, He Said my Tweets earned 2,294 impressions over the last 24 hours

I tell myself that stats are a measure of accomplishment, but am I really as vulnerable as anyone else to the need for acceptance.
For Pete's sake, What are you gonna do with yourself?


I'm an unashamed narcissist. I only pay attention to what I'm doing.
This post was born out of a desire to laugh at myself.

Gabby Hayes King of Sidekicks #pezoutlaw

Please Watch My Emmy Winning Movie, The Pez Outlaw on Amazon Prime & Peacock. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Best actor at SXSW.

It's My Story.

 

When Cowboys were King, George Francis "Gabby" Hayes was the King of sidekicks.
I'm going to write this as I remember it with zero research except the exact spelling of Gabby Hayes.
The reason is, I want my perspective n emotion about Gabby Hayes to come through.
Through the eyes of my youth.


I don't want to spoil my memories with a bunch of useless facts.
I prefer to keep my memories untouched by the trend of revisionist history.



Roy Rogers may have been King Of The Cowboys, most likely self branding by a studio.
But in this childs eyes Gabby Hayes was the King of the sidekicks, no discussion.
I may have dreamed of being Roy Rogers but in my heart I knew that I was Gabby Hayes.
Plus when your older brother picks first, guess what, you're Gabby Hayes. 

Think about it, most of us are the sidekicks in our lives.
Very few of us were the #1 cool kid in our crowds, no we were the sidekicks.
Possibly another reason I identified with Gabby Hayes, only one high school quarterback per school after all.
Even in the hippie crowd of the 1960s there was a pecking order only one guy that wore the leather jacket with long fringe.
I was not the quarterback or the guy in the jacket with long fringe, I was Gabby Hayes, the sidekick.  
It's the old, Are you Betty or Veronica thing. Guys, Are you Roy Rogers or are you Gabby Hayes. 
I'm proud n always aspired to be a Gabby Hayes.

To me all the other cowboy sidekicks were who the studios went to if you could not get Gabby Hayes.
If a studio wanted there wannabe cowboy star to have a good launch, you got Gabby Hayes if possible.

George Francis "Gabby" Hayes was a New York taxi driver before he became a cowboy sidekick in the 1940s.
As a child I always thought Roy Rogers had to go with Pat Brady when he launched his TV show because Gabby Hayes was not available.


From a small child in the 1950s when Westerns were what we watched on TV, Gabby Hayes left a deep impression on me. I've thought a lot about him over the years.
In the 1970s n 1980s when I was still not accepting my true self, I read every book I could get my hands on about the Marx Brothers, because if you wanted to be cool you talked about the Marx Brothers.
I enjoyed the history of there lives and understood there work, but honestly I was more of a 3 Stooges Gabby Hayes kinda guy.

Once the cowboy thing took over TV in the 1950s, Gabby Hayes had his own syndicated show.
That might be the association my mind gets with Gaby Hayes n the 3 Stooges.




Funny thing is the older I get, The more I look like Gabby Hayes. 

That's why I've always said, because Gabby Hayes is dead I guess Bill Murray or Michael Keaton would be my choices to play me in The Pez Outlaw Movie.
I have an opinion, but I honestly don't care who plays Pez Outlaw.

I will admit I thought Nellie Bell was very cool n probably led to my lifelong love of jeeps. 
You had to be there to get that one.
Does that make Nellie Bell a sidekick, vehicle?

TV is my Friend

Born in 1951, I am the TV generation. I was raised by TV. 
TV for most of my life has been the one friend I could count on.

Things have changed a great deal in 64 years on TV.
The biggest being I no longer watch anything in real time.
More than that, I watch most 1 hour shows in about a half hour.
Half hour shows in at most 15 to 20 minutes.

Long drawn out Car and foot chase scenes bore me to death.
Long drawn out Fight scenes bore me.
Sharing our feelings scenes bore me.

New ways of watching TV lose me, I went along up to and including DISH TV and DVD's.
Now thumb drives. Hulu, Netflix on demand. On line only. Enough already!
Seriously Why?
If it's not good enough to be on regular TV I don't want to hear about it.

I read EW magazine for the TV section, the minute I notice that a show is being reviewed on Amazon, Netflix, Showtime, Starz, HBO only I'm gone. No longer interested. Put it on regular TV, then we can talk.

I will tell you this much DISH Network. The new thing is dumping cable or dish type TV and just getting content from Netflix etc. Sorta reminds me of the moment that people realize they no longer needed land line telephones, that there cell phone was more than enough.
DISH TV about $100.00 per month vs Netflix approx $20.00 per month, you do the math.
Dish that $100.00 a month does not even get you the premium channels (HBO, Showtime etc).
The $20.00 per month for Netflix gets you everything.
DISH Network your greed will be your undoing, to say that you are not competitive is so so so an understatement of the facts.
DISH Network you need to find a way that if someone is paying you $100.00 a month that they get everything. $100.00 a month should be the premium platinum plan.


After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.



Am I there yet Gabby.

Pez Outlaw, Asylum Crack Weasel #pezoutlaw

Please Watch My Emmy Winning Movie, The Pez Outlaw on Amazon Prime & Peacock. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Best actor at SXSW.

It's My Story.


The path to fame n fortune.
RELEASE THE CRACK WEASEL!

I just finished writing a post so boring I didn't even want to read it, so I turned a Crack Weasel loose in my brain. The objective being to see what the little bastard turns up.
My brain being pictured here as a massive empty warehouse with one 60 watt bulb lighting the middle, one lone chair beneath it.
Into that I released the Crack Weasel.

Like a Drive Time DJ I've got my cast of characters to elevate my show.
Pez Outlaw, Zombie Rabbit, Commie Pinko's n Crack Weasel. 
All are an attempt to take my mind off that which I mustn't speak. 
Snakes On The Ceiling  was an attempt to shed some light.
51% Sane   was in some ways an apology.
Pez Outlaw Diary  is the angst n pain on full display.
BOOOOOM! My Head Just Exploded. was a high/low point.
If It Hadn't Been For  was a lone truth.

Other than that they have been distractions, amusement.   

Of all the words I've written. 
One of my favorite lines is.
Vanity got the only life preserver on that ship of fools.

Will there be a Pez Outlaw Book?
Will there be a Pez Outlaw Movie?
Neither is in my control. Which by the way is frustrating as hell.

I try to keep Pez Outlaw relevant by doing the things that brought the initial interest.
Notes From The Asylum is the PR arm for the Pez Outlaw project.
But truth is, I'm no longer in charge of the fate of Pez Outlaw.
The best I can hope to do is influence at the edges.
The whims of others control Pez Outlaws fate.

All that said I'm grateful.



After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.

Pez Outlaw, As Time Goes By #pezoutlaw

Please Watch My Emmy Winning Movie, The Pez Outlaw on Amazon Prime & Peacock. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Best actor at SXSW.

It's My Story.


for the record. yesterday was the worst day of the year. 
weather wise. even smokey horse had to come in. 
weeks of rain n mud climaxing in rain, snow, wind, cold n mud.
Smokey Horse /old stumpy had had enough n was shivering.
When old stumpy is shivering, it's bad.
Of course he came in to a dry stall for the night then promptly redecorated everything by morning.
1st day in several years that Smokey gave in n had to come in, that says a lot about how terrible the weather was yesterday.


Days keep ticking down.
Nothing to show for it.

I'm outa sink with reality. 
How do I reconcile belief.

It was the view from the Asylum.
The struggle, a path not chosen.

Run to safety.
Mediocrities shines.

Words spoken but never asked.
Acceptance is all that's left.

Catch the pony.
Ride the dream.

Tomorrow shines Bright.


About every other week I think that I've written about everything I could possibly have to say.
Then life hands me a new post.

The Asylum in Notes From The Asylum is about being diminished/relegated to the purgatory of my own mind.
The Notes are thoughts I smuggle out of the prison of my mind.

This process is very odd for others to watch.
Know me long n you know my words are chosen, not random.
My words have purpose, especially when I seem to be rambling.
Other times my words are just building walls to keep people out or placate.
I call that Verbal Wallpaper or just wallpapering. 

The other day in answer to a question I was told.
Keep doing what you're doing.
That I can do. 

*******************

Today's a very big day which required a very big push.
In less than 2yrs Notes From The Asylum has passed all other endeavors.
The success of NFTA has been at a near rate of 10x.
Very proud today. 

"Notes From The Asylum" Done, mission accomplished. NFTA Now Rules The Universe. #pezoutlaw #hollywood.

******************* 

Basics

The process of getting back to basics as a person is essential to survival when life gets rough.
People around me may have money but I will never carry money again in my life.
I just want to securely maintain my little world n meander around within it.
I'm at peace with that. 

Of all the things I've built or created over the last 20yrs I'm proudest of this building.
This project was the perfect exercise of finding the good within the bad.
I created a silk purse out of a sows ear by taking a building that was a total eyesore n turning it into a tight building.
Truly proud of it n never tire of looking at it.
If you know the whole story, This building represents the best of who I am now.

When you ask to be friended or follow me, make sure it's what you really want, because I'm relentless in pursuit of my goals.
