Snakes on the ceiling

the sanctuary of darkness
twisted sheets, dreading daylight

repetition, trying to understand the moment
Time slips away

each day a domino falling to the next
the scales of time out of favor

praying for the dream
dreading the reality sunshine brings

I told a friend yesterday that I only get depressed when my fantasy world fails me.
One on One Human interaction just wears me out.
On the other hand, I embrace this new world of communication through typing.
I actually enjoy that.

Last nights 2am to 4am dream.
I was in a Cruise ship Hotel/port.
I missed my ship. Yeah I know, kinda on the nose.
Anyway, I couldn't get anybody to listen to me.
Maybe, the bigger Metaphor.

Jeff asked me yesterday, How are you doing? 

I've always found that question uncomfortable.
Truth be told on the best of days I'm 50/50.
I always count that as a good day.

My guilty TV viewing pleasure is Ancient Aliens.
Whatever you wanna say is fine.
On a recent view it was going into the great minds over the centuries.
The point I walked away with was the common link in one form or another to meditation.

I told Kathy n she said, you could start.
I told her that I'm to old n more important, maybe it's not a good idea.
I've been in there a lot, I'm not sure I want to go back.
Best if I dip in and out with glancing blows.

It's like how the baby boomers are all thinking about dying.
I watch them, they are doing things that to me are preparation to saying goodbye.
Like death is a new concept to them.
I've been dealing with mortality since I was 4 or 5 years old.

Death is like chasing your tail, no point to it whatsoever.
Just get up each morning n deal with the day in front of you.
No more thought than that is required.
Of course each day is a new beginning, a chance to do better.

To waist one moment of precious life with thoughts of death is foolish.
Death will get it's allotted time, don't give it any of life's time.

So, How am I doing?
Man I got No Idea. 
Nuts to this, I'm gonna go out n start the tractor up.
Move some horse poo. 

BTW my answer to Jeff was, Waiting.

After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.

https://www.ebay.com/.../Pez-Outlaw-By-sj-glew/_i.html...

Yesterday while out doing chores I started wondering about something.
What if I really am a Catatonic in a mental hospital n all that I perceive as reality is my imagination creating a world to pacify me.

If that were the case, when did my alternate reality actually start?
Was it after a bad acid trip in the late 1960s?

One of the reasons the thought gains any traction in my mind is the charmed life I've led.
On many occasions my life could have been destroyed by the direction of my actions.
Somehow though I seem to always walk right up to the edge without falling off.
The military/Vietnam, Drugs/to much foolish abuse to state, Alcahol/excess.
Life's turns. Always almost losing everything but somehow barely staying afloat.

Why have I been so Lucky, as opposed to others I've watched crash n burn.
Maybe it is just that I have a foolish streak protected by a strong survival instinct.
Still, I've always felt like I had an Angel watching over me that pulls me out before the crash.
Think about it, in your dreams crazy reins supreme but you never see yourself die.

I don't leave my property very often.
Is that because when I go past certain boundaries it threatens my illusions?
This part in a way is probably true, because my world real or imagined is let's call it "creative and self created".

My brain screws with me a lot, yet somehow I've found a degree of peace.
All this said, would I actually mind if this was all a fabrication and not real?
No, I wouldn't.
Do I actually think that I'm catatonic somewhere n this is my minds creation?
No, I mean it's possible but not likely.

On the possible side, I do treat the world like it's not real, especially the internet.
I also feel that we all have the power to write our own story.
That said it can take decades for reality to catch up with the script you wrote. 

My touch n go relationship with reality is probably why I believe that there will be a Pez Outlaw Movie.
Why not, it's the way I'd imagine it. 

After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.

Pez Outlaw, Chuckwagon Dreams #pezoutlaw

https://www.ebay.com/.../Pez-Outlaw-By-sj-glew/_i.html...

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.

In 1959 I was a very young 8 years old.

Friday night was a very big night.
Dad got paid n brought home groceries.
It was hamburger night.
Huckleberry Hound n Roy Rogers were on TV.
So Fridays were pretty big nights.

Oh yeah n on Friday nights my 4 brothers n I got our allowance of 25cents each.
You might think that 25 cents isn't very much but actually to our thrifty young minds it was a windfall.
On Saturday morning before cartoons we'd walk down to Pete's store n buy our cartoon watching supplies.
I'd usually buy a 16 ounce Nehi, grape, strawberry or orange for 12 or13 cents depending on my mood.
For another dime I'd get a big bag of BBQ potato chips.
With my final few pennies I'd buy grape gumballs at a penny each.

Interesting sidebar about potato chips in 1959. 
Potato chips were a bigger thing in 1959 central Michigan than you might think today.
Distribution chains n supermarket chains just did not exist yet.
I know this because I had an Uncle that distributed Potato chips to the little community stores like Pete's out of a very small warehouse.
My uncle unloaded the semi into his glorified shed then drove the chips around case by case.

Same thing went for Pizza.
Cassanova's was the only restaurant in a 3 mile area that sold Pizza.
Fast Food really didn't exist in 1959.
The way we had pizza was a Chef Boyardee Pizza mix.
You made the dough, then covered it w/pepperoni sauce n sprinkle cheese.

Guy on ebay has Chef Boy R D {to lazy to look up right spelling} boxed Pizza Mix 4sale n says its 1940s. That ain't right. Pizza was a BIG Deal in late 50s n early 60s.

We used to buy n make that pizza when it came out n i remember it being more like 1960?

Our cartoon watching supplies in hand, my brothers n I would head back home for our morning of feasting n visual delight.
Cartoons n Westerns till noon before mom turned us out on the world.
Nobody had to watch us because we watched each other.
We tore all over on our used bikes, without a care in the world.

Fessing up, my brothers n I were like a barely trained pack of dogs.
I remember feeling that my grandparents seemed happier to see the Woodcock grandchildren than the Glew boys.
Small wonder, we were loud, we fought a lot, we argued about everything n there were 5 of us.
While i'm being honest I was probably the worst.
I fought, I was opinionated, nobody could tell me anything, I had to learn it for myself.
So of course grandpa n grandma enjoyed the well mannered Woodcocks more.
My brothers n I were true children of the 50s, Ruff n Reddy to go. 
Ruff n Reddy was one of our cartoons.

The problem was that there were 5 of us boys n to make matters worse, one of them was me.
That I did not end up dead or in jail is all due to the fact that I met Kathryn Ann.
She alone is the patient Angel sent by God to save me.

Ruff n Reddy

N Don't You Forget IT!

 Quick Draw McGraw as El Kabong

Had to include El Kabong. 
Especially when Kathy had forgotten who he was.
You know, El Kabong?

N how do you forget Wally Gator?

My First cartoon show n the one that started my love of cartoons was Huckleberry Hound.
Huckleberry Hounds Circus in black n white.
We didn't see color TV till the mid 1960s.

Sufferin Succotash!
Last but not least Snagglepuss.
I have to admit though I didn't realize Snagglepuss was pink, Black n White TV you know

Another one of my brothers m my charms for innocent bystanders was.
We didn't just watch TV, we relived our favorite TV adventures in real world. 
Running around shooting each other, screaming to mom, "He won't take his deads".
Television was new when we were children n we embraced it with both arms.
Our TV preferences were shoot em ups n cartoons.

Imagine being a parent n the fight you must settle is why one of your children won't take his deads when shot by another of your children.
All I can think now is that I wish I'd taken more time to enjoy how wonderful those days actually were.
I wish I could go back n relive them. 
I could say I'd bring wisdom back with me.
Hell No, I just wanna go back n play again, my brothers n I had fun, I wanna do that again.

If you don't buy a young boy toy guns to play with on moral grounds, he will just use a stick n call it a gun.
Little boys like to play with toy guns, efforts to stop it are just fighting the current.
Kids play n parents think to much.

I have no idea why but one year on my Birthday Mom bought all five of us boys toy six-guns.
Because it was my Birthday I got to pick first.
I chose the Roy Rogers 2 holster with 2 guns.
I think though my older brother Virgil pulled one on me cause he picked next n got a really cool single swivel holster.
That thing was a beauty, all brown leather no do das.
A really wide belt n lace down.
Thinking back I now know n realize that swivel holster was the best gun set.
Yeah Virgil had snookered me again.

There is a downside though.
That belt to Virgil's cool six-gun hung around longer than the rest.
That belt went on to become the spanking belt.
Before you get all weird, in the 1950's boys got spanked, it's just the way it was.
That belt did disappear after a bit though, what I'd get spanked for doin it.
I did stuff like that, consequences be damned. 

I started a search for a picture of that gun n holster set of Virgil's, as with all interweb searches I ended up God Knows Where.
Voila Jon's Country Burger, Kathy's first job at 14 years old.

Kathy's first jof as a car hop in 1965 or 66.

Unlike Kathy I had a lot of first jobs n got fired from all of them.
Once for a catsup fight that destroyed the Burger King kitchen. 
I got fired from almost every job I had before I met Kathy, including high school n the Marine Corps.

I was destined to meet Kathy.
My dad used to haul trash for a neighbor of hers when I was young.
A friend of mine dated her when I was 15 n 16.
We just kept crossing paths till it took. 

Yes dad used to haul trash beside working in the shop, 5 boys eat a lot.
Trash was 50cents for a 55 gallon barrel in late 1950s, I used to ride along sometimes.
The dump was a really cool place when I was a kid, people threw away all kinds of good stuff. 

Break New Subject or same one if you're me.

OK interweb. search got me nothing. What TV character said "Curses I tell Ya"?
Anybody who wants to play.
Kathy n I both use it a lot.
I know it came from somewhere in our TV upbringing. 

Unlike today when TV is rationed to children.
With Kathy n I, we were raised by TV.
TV was our babysitter.
Just between us I have no shame or problem with this fact.

Not many people know but TV was ready to go just before WW2.
But because of World War 2 it got pushed off till approx 1947.
I was born in 1951 to the wonders of television, I could not get enough of it.

Personally, I like TV still.
I listen to TV News from 11am til 2pm.
After chores I watch TV from 8pm til 2am.
I enjoy TV n have no shame about it.

A couple years ago I watched every episode of Matlock.
I wanted to see what Kathy's Dad's generation was fixated on or Why.
Right now I'm watching every episode of Murder she Wrote, again to see the why of it n the charm.

TV can be like time travel in this regard. 
How it was done say in 1985.
The tempo, casting n visuals of contemporary programing.
Here's an example, there was way more diversity of casting in the 1970s n 80s than now.
Not to mention fashion, cars, architecture n technology (no cell phones).
I also like to watch the character progression, which is why the first episode n season are a particular treat.

It's hysterical to watch folks hunting for a pay phone which are nonexistent today.
Today cell phones, tablets etc are annoyingly everywhere.
If a person has a hand, a cell phone is in it, like it grew there.
It's interesting to watch people function just fine without a cell phone or it's interruptions.

I do not bother with youtube, netflix, amazon or any other internet programing.
I figure if it's any good it should be or would be on TV.
The rest of it is just to complicated. 
Like Chancey Gardener, I just turn on TV n watch. 
Dish network is as far as I'll go, I love DVR.

Truthfully my age should be almost 150.
I've given myself the life experiences of that long in entertainment.
From Hearst era yellow journalism, to Nickelodeon's, Vaudeville, Silent movies, radio, talkies, to Television.
How the early pioneers all found a new life on TV, from Milton Berle, Burns n Allen, Sid Caesar, Jack Benny, Ed Wynn, Groucho, 3 stooges, Gabby Hayes, Roy Rogers, Gene Autry n all the shows on TV that originally used older actors from faded movie careers.
Many who experienced movies, vaudeville, radio, then TV.

When I get into a particular act like the Marx brothers or 3 stooges.
I watch all there movies, TV shows n read every Bio I can find. 
Which usually leads to Vaudeville n radio before TV.

I like to immerse myself in the time n try to experience it as though I were there. 

To maybe, MAYBE be a small part in the history of this would be a treat.

I've found this post particularly satisfying.
Thank You for reading.

Modern Living

I'm amazed how facebook knows certain things that I'm very careful never to talk about, click, link or search.

also, my dish receiver is very fritzy but I'm avoiding telling them because I just know there going to want me to get that talking remote.

Think I'm paranoid, ok answer this. If it's not listening, how does it know to respond?

I hate n avoid all these things you talk to because I know that they are listening when you don't want them to.
I just don't understand peoples acceptance of self survailance by Big Brother'

Some sharp cookie is going to figure out that a sizable potential market share would buy a product if you advertised how you removed n do not allow any microphones on your TV's etc.
N Don't get me started on Ancestry.com where you are voluntarily giving your DNA to a data base, accessed by God knows who.

Somehow seems appropriate to retell Chuckwagon Dreams today on the eve of 2020.
Tell you a quick story.
On Christmas Eve I walked across the road from my son Joshuas house to his new neighbor who happens to be his cousin, because it looked like my brother Dennis was there.
First thing outa Dennis's mouth was "You Got Old".
Yeah we got old, it was our turn.
So today I decide to remember once again when we were young n I first saw Kathy as a child picking up trash from her neighbors house.
No idea that that little girl would be more important to me than everything , well just everything.

After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.

I have limited out the last 3 days tweeting on twitter. You still see a fraction of my work promoting Pez Outlaw. When not if, there is a Pez Outlaw Movie etc. This, This is how it was done. RELENTLESSLY!

It's My Story.

1954-55 Drive In Headliner "Attack of the Killer Ants" 

In my mind we went in that Baby Blue Ford Station Wagon.

A Shrink would have a Field Day with this one, you know analizing the picture.
I dream of these simpler times. 

Don't it just figure that the day I finally get to take the tour at the Pez Visitors Center, a Giant Radioactive Ant shows up. What are the odds.

Of course a Giant Irradiated Ant would go to the Pez Candy Company (sugar draws ants), it's just a coincidence that they came the day I was visiting..
Where else would Giant Ants go, The Morton Salt Company, I think not.

Little known fact, Salt disorientates ants, we had the beginnings of an ant infestation (I dislodged them in my roofing project), anyway we poured salt on counter top in there path.
Supernatural, Salt wards of demons Ghosts etc. circle of salt, salt doors n windows, so I thought why not ants.
Well it worked n I pretended that of course, I knew it would. NOT A CLUE Really, but I take wins where I can get them.

Oh Yeah I stepped on the punch line. The salt worked n it was bizarre, most of the ants just froze once they crossed into my created salt flats.
My guess is scout ants lay sent for the rest to follow, salt removed the trail disorientating those who followed.
When reports back to the colony were no survivors, signs were put up DANGER AHEAD, like the one Josh n I saw in Slovenia cocerning Croatia.


Pop Pez, how about a line of 1950s B movie classic pez dispensers.
All the irradiated critters that were gonna kill us in the 50s.
There was Tobar, giant ant, giant spiders, giant leeches, The Terror Of Tiny Town, Plan 9 from outer space, The Fly, Voodoo Women, & Aliens n spaceships / flying saucers.

In the beginning, all was unknown. 
What we knew, was accepted.
The hated future, not contemplated.
Once revealed, the lines were drawn.

My friend warned me of the peril.
I thought I heeded his advice.
My stance was tempered.
Could the hatred be that strong?

Was I to blind to see it?
I refuse to mouth the words agreed upon.
All fall in line or are shunned.
Did I choose to late?

Was the warning only for me?
Is it even possible to correct the past?  
I just don't care anymore.
My world is small, my needs are few.

Pez Outlaw, Do you finally understand how this works?

Pez Outlaw 
************

Has the life of Pez Outlaw reached the point where his adventures are now being retold as urban legend?
Please understand that When I talk about Pez Outlaw, I'm not talking about me.
he, Pez Outlaw lived from approximately 1992 to 2002 or 2005.
My life is completely separate from his.
I'm simply the caretaker of the Pez Outlaw Legacy, nothing more.

One of the biggest mistakes I made in the 90s was selling before all possible product had been acquired.

opening shot

an 8 year old child, (1959) Pez Outlaw being dragged to, then pushed into the classroom closet at the Maple Grove Elementary school. Darkness, then the door opens revealing Pez Outlaw 10 years later in solitary confinement county jail Ohio.

scene 2

She Whispered, "Kolinska" With that one word, Kolinska, a decade long Fairy-tale that changed my life began.

Segue to a crowded Pez/toy show floor where a woman whispers Kolinka in my ear to Josh n I on the little plane to Ljubliana about to die. see C3.She Whispered, "Kolinska" #pezoutlaw #hollywood... for the rest of this story

scene 3

1994 Flight to Ljubljana. After waiting all night on benches in a small corner of the Vienna airport finally it was time to board. We walk out onto the airstrip & are directed to board Sky Kings plane. 

“Sky King” starred Kirby Grant as Schuyler “Sky” King and Gloria Winters as his niece, Penny.

Pilot copilot & 4 seats for passengers. One of the seats occupied by the overweight male stewardess handing out sandwiches from Rubbermaid containers. This did not look good. The flight turned out to be quite similar to a ride on a scary roller coaster with the male stewardess in your lap more than his own seat. Something to do with flying over the Alps in winter in a small plane, wind currents, downdrafts & low altitudes. We drove clown cars down through the mountains after that. The single most beautiful drive you will ever take is a winter drive from Vienna to Ljubljana through the mountains. The air is crisp & clean. The scenery unmatched anywhere in all my travels. Whenever I think of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen it is that drive in winter. Though driving clown cars through serious mountains can be a harrowing experience.

see C3.She Whispered, "Kolinska" #pezoutlaw #hollywood... for the rest of this story

Wardrobe. Me in my Trench Coat n Midnight Blue Velour Track Suit, clutching a paper towel in my left hand for security, true story. On the flight from the US to Europe I would not let the Flight Attendants take my coat as I did not trust anybody. 

 Sitting in my seat on that flight to Slovenia, I began wondering how I ended up here, sure I was about to die. The whispered word "Kolinska" that led me to that moment in time. From 1970 to 1990 I had been an accumulator of things old, from 1990 to 1994 I started doing antique n toy shows as a seller. During 1993 I started selling Pez from Canada, which led to the decade that changed my life's direction forever. All the previous was reflection while sitting on this plane ride from Hell, from here the adventure begins.

The story unfolds. 
 Reality TV pales in comparison to the life I lived for 11 years.  Hungary - 700,000 Pez Smuggled. Pez Outlaw 

Pez Outlaw Dispenser

 Spies, Black market deals, smuggling and Bribery.
10 years, Nobody could catch me.
I ran circles around the corporate cool kids and made them look like incompetents.

Final shot.
As the credits roll show a backshot of Pez Outlaw today sitting on set in the dark watching his life being made into a Hollywood Movie.
To me this is the money shot, telling the audience that after all that they just watched HE WON.
Life is hard n people need the encouragement of seeing that if you stick with it n believe in yourself, you actually can succeed. 

Box Office receipts weren't so great this past summer, What You Got To Lose by telling a middle class story of hope n dreams rewarded?



After Pez Outlaw, I intend to retire.
