7:42 pm	Coffins, a bird Flu in the Bush, Archons rule while Amerikans sleep I just spent the last hour reading my cross section of newsources. I could list them but lets say some foriegn press, some alterative press, some friends across the globes blogs etc. Shivers everywhere. Damn is there an ugly moon rising. Bush threatening Military quarentines in a bird flu outbreak! Birds dropping dead out of the sky in Europe. El Presidente invoking war against Syra/Iran. Makes me regret the time I spent in vapid comapany. On maybe a bright note.? Going to an art show tonight. A group show of hand made coffins! All to ponder while thinking of the apocalypse everyone seems to want so fucking bad. Current Music: Kris Kristofferson (1 Comment |Comment on this)

4:50 pm	Captain BOB Stephen and I were sitting in a restraunt yesterday working on the final draft of Livingstoned when we recieved a call from Livingston. It was someone at the Murray telling us Captain Bob was in the hospital. He had a minor stroke, lost some vision in his right eye and might have some memory problems. He willl make it through, so next time in the next few days when you take a toke or a drink of rum, smile a bit for the Captain. Current Music: Opium Tea (3 Comments |Comment on this)

10:24 am	Ragnorak After the destruction, a new and idyllic world will arise from the sea and will be filled with abundant supplies. Some of the gods will survive, others will be reborn. Wickedness and misery will no longer exist and gods and men will live happily together. The descendants of Lif and Lifthrasir will inhabit this earth. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

4:16 pm	Lawyers, Guns and Money My eyes were closed before the sun went down. Yesterday was all about R&R, morning in the hotsprings, an early dinner of steak and shrimp and a couple glasses of wine. Some crying for the loss of the American Dream. Woke up early this morning and talked to somone whom always makes my heart sing. So the day has started out right. Now I just need to figure out how to come up with G's by the end of the month to get the beast moving again. Its been sleeping too long. Current Music: Dispatch & OAR....Down Under (Comment on this)

6:57 pm	No Surrender But How bout a Retreat? Just putting on a suite to go to my attorney's office and sign my Declaration of Independence. I'm all set up to kick up the script with a little passionate Punk Rock, been filling my ears with Agent Orange, Germs, Dead Kennedy's and want a few scenes to be able to withstand that kind of energy. This week Im going to set myself up for a week retreat in at a friends cabin up in the woods. Away from the Village of the Damned that I wrote about. It has electricity so I can use my Mac and listen to music, I'll just make sure I bring enough weed, coffee and wine.

9:36 pm	Peace of Mind I blew off alot of steam this week. I have been holding in soo much stress over the divorce and the possibility of having to fight tooth and nail to retain sole rights to Livingstoned. Its finally over. She gave up. Its mine. I have had a couple of indie production companies severly interested in it for the last year but have been unable to make progress ie a production agreement because of the divorce. So I need to tie up some lose ends here at home base and then Ill be back in LA for a flurry of meetings with entertainment lawyers and execs. Back in the saddle. I can be a filmmaker again. So now it is work, work, work. I am planning on shooting in August and September to get that change of leaves in certain shots to show a time lapse. Have a little more casting to do and need a production manager which I should have in place by May. I am estatic!!

7:11 am	One Day Break in the Bender I woke up this morning shakng like a junkie. When I heard the news Sunday night I immediatly put a bottle in my mouth and it has been in there until this morning. Tuesday or maybe Thursday I get an invoice from my Attorney for my divorce. The invoice was dated Valentinesday and the total was $666.67. So I called my attorney ask why the little perverted bastard was going Satanic on me.....he said he thought I would get a kick out of it. Wed night the Jager bus pulled into Livingston and parked out side a bar where some of the ex new age doomsday cult that built all the bomb shelters kids' band Apocalyptic Dream Machine,ADM, where playing. By that time I had four Chocolate martinis and 13 or 14 Jalapeno Margaritas with coconut dusted rims. I walked in and immediatly start giving all the scared Peckerwoods the finger screaming "Come on you big stupid Peckerwoods, Fight me...its a Goddamn Punk Show." Then did some drunken beast dancing pogo style. The damn bartenders where slack jawed and wide eyed when I demanded more booze. Well they gave it to me, then the little Jager girls give me a tour of their bus, (luckily I had a babysitter to give me the full report because I hardly remember any of it), and I asked if I gave them twenty bucks if I could lean my head under the Jager machine and they hold down the button till I choke. Ofcourse they indulged me. Then I guess I was let back into the bar and I knocked over the dartboard Machine. I was on my back giving every one the finger. Finally some big peckerwood, the biggest one in there comes up to me. I guess I smiled at him like the Devil and told him I would give him twenty bucks if he could knock me out, and I flicked the bill in his face. Then the reinforcements show up and pick me up and toss me out. My handler pulls me down the sidewalk, im yelling like a madman. Then a hot blonde walked by and went into the bar and I guess I broke the babysitters hold and went back in. I dont remeber what happened and no trustworthy eyewitness but I woke up at home, naked and bloody. I continued all day and night Thursday, we had an East LA stranger bang, we caught two slack knuckles and I caught a lap dog stranger bang. I was in chronic pain from the poison all day and all I could think was thank God the Mayor didnt go on this bender with me other wise someone would be in the hospital and we would be wearing orange together. By the way, my ex signed the papers. I have all the rights to Livingstoned back!!!!! Current Mood: nauseated Current Music: quiet soft music (Comment on this)

5:57 pm	I Need A Doctor!! After strapping on a pair of ski goggles and riding twenty miles standing through the sunroof of a Jetta, I was deposited safley at the Murray. There I was pimped and preened with exotic concoctions of booze and seafood. Twelve jalepino Margaritas, I like them dusted with coconut I find myslef trying to juggle a sharp knife and almost slice my left index finger off...luckily there was a sexy doctor of medicine that was roped into our reindeer games....stiches are like foreplay to those kinky chicks. So im stitched, hung over, going through the phone records trying to figure out who I called and maybe Ill remember what the hell happened lastnight. I think I agreed to take the Doctor out for dinner in exchange for her sewing skills. Need more informatin..more cocconuts....more smoke.

11:58 am	Im Pissed and Really Depressed!!! I've lived through too many god damn suicides this last two years!! A year ago while I was creeping around Jack Parsons old house I had a vision of a friend in the passenger seat of the rent a car...I said to myslef..."why in the fuck am I thinking of him right now?"...and pushed him out of my head...I get back to Livingston three weeks later and find out he blew himslef away with a beratta 9mm that same day. Tonight Im at the MUrray with my attorney and uncle Ed and Barb from Rumors restraunt...a favorite of Livingstoned....and I get a call around eight thirty someone telling me Hunter shot himself.....I bought a bottle of Fernet Branca...the most opiated hallucingenic booze you can getn and start pounding it....trying to find him on the other side...then my ex calls.....to console me...she knows how close I held him....and then she tells me Im the only one she will ever love but because she is a horny woman she is fucking a peckerwood.......!!!!!!!!

2:43 am	Kulture Klub takes on String Theory and Mystism I watched Nova tonight with Captain Bob and Young Master Robbie and it was based on Brian Greene's book the Elegant Universe. It is about the new wave of physics based on the String Theory. It reloves on bits of energy like strings that vibrate the universe into existance. Ofcourse each one of these strings could be a whole universe it self..they call them membranes..or Branes...the whole thing went on and on...all these hard headed mathmaticians astounded at their discovery of eleven dimensions. After the program,,the peace pipe was passed...Captain Bob ofcouse declares "They don't what the fuck they are taking about but when they are writing their algebraic equations it sure looks like they know what they are doing." I explain that this supposed theory of all is only Our explanation ie "our" as in the western scientific materialist society. The Hindus in India have been talking about different and "higher" dimesions for thousands of years, the Lamas in Tibet have scriputers and mandalas dipicting these"membranes" of reality, the Jivarros in the Amazon, the Mescalito's and Huichol's peyote induced encouters with intellegences from those "Branes" Even right here in the West we have had radicals, occultists, who talked of "Planes" and rising on the planes, whole universes right smack next to our own. The thing that really pisses me off about our culture is they are building Huge atom smashers to try to see a bit of these "Planes" in a subatomic particle. All the fucking geeks have to do is have a hit of acid or travel to the Amazon for some 'yage, our go to the Native American Church for the Peyote, or expierence any other sacred ethnogenic chemical in a native shamanic setting with a guide to take them to their mysterious, mathmatical "Brains" Speaking of ethnogenics....Young Master Robbie spent Xmas at the notorius Bar Nothing Ranch. Being the Anarchist that Captain Bob is he gifted Robbie with some Andean shrooms that have been in his freezer for about six years behind the elk meat. I had just one tiny cap of those nasty smurfs a few years ago on the fourth of July...never been the same since. Well that night while he was sleeping (Xmas night) after tripping all day long he said he was dreaming of sitting on a beach lookng up at the full moon(which it was that night) and a huge wave crashed over him.

1:55 pm	Teepee Hangover Wandered the town lastnight with the Mayor and Captain Bob. It was the art walk lastnight, all seventeen galleries downtown have an opening and fuel the walkers with free wine. Spoke to Peter Fonda for awhile, trying to get him to sit down and talk seriously about Livingstoned. Seems it will happen soon. Then we went to the Lagoon Resort and got totally loaded, I guess we went back uptown, don't remeber much past the shots of Mezcal. Woke up at seven am, in the teepee, fire smoldering in the middle.

1:17 pm	Mandala It has been rainy here the last few days, evenings have been beautiful, in the 60's, clear crisp air. Went on a long walk lastnight with Captain Bob's 21 year old son and his friend Brian. Brian spent about half of it in an ADD rage trying to win me over to the skate punk graffiti worldview and all I could do is try to steer his gaze to the canopy of stars or the rushing yellowstone river and ask him what does graffiti and tagging have to do with any of this? I then gave him an ecersize of not talking and just observing the night. He then wandered off. A friend of mine, Gary Fergeson, wrote a great book a few years ago about inner city kids going up in the mountains for a month or two months, I don't remeber how long, but the effect it had on them was amazing. I havent spent that much time alone in the woods since I was seventeen but it has been appealing to me latley. This month I am spending much of the mornings and afternoons working on budgets and logistics and trying to get the funding taken care off. I have a lot healthier attitude about it now, thanks to doing zazen again, and am just letting it all flow to me and not chasing it and wrestling it to the ground as I was before. I am also trying to get one of these, http//www.pacificdomes.com set up out in the mountains. I think it is going to be a strange few months for us all in our society and I am trying to get a peacefulness around me so if things get alittle weird I won't be attached to how things were, or more likely how I percieved them to be.

4:26 pm	White Buffalo I've been pretty mundane latley. Been letting my personality take a much needed rest. Sending off a bunch of scripts and budgets to development execs I met a couple weeks ago. I did get a gold star on my chart. I turned on the phone on Friday and went through a weeks worth of messages and got a comment from one of the big shots out there who said he meets 50 people a day with a screenplay sticking out of their back pocket and that he had never quite met one such as me. He promised me if I don't score with this one(which I will) that I will definatly be succesfull filmmaker because of my energy and that my head was actually right on track with what makes it happen. And here I've always thought I didn't have a fucking clue what I was doing. HIGHER SELF just keep driving, I'll stay in the backseat, writing down what I see as we go down the Red Road.

9:42 pm	Assualt on Hollywood the Sequel Just got my plane ticket.... will be in LaLa land again on the evening of the 31st. Ill be out there until the 11th or 12th...have to be back for Z man's birthday on the 13th. So for the next week Shawn does not sleep, does not eat much and is glued to his puter polishing screenplay, whacking together a crazy trailer, designing website, writing investment packages and networking with an agent and pimping Larry Flynt. When I get out there I really have no idea whats happening other than meeting with development execs and a couple of actors that somehow feel the spark of Livingstoned and might want to wrap their souls in my wierd weave. So I'm hitting the ground running when I land so all of those out on the west coast drop me a line if you know anything about a happening that a Crazy Mountain Hipster like me should check out.

12:54 am	The Sleeper Shall Awaken My heart has had a sharp pain throbbing in it all day. Maybe because I listened to Chris Isaak all nightlast night or it could be a symptom of the anxiety attack I have been fighting off with the herb. The final rewrite is going out to my coproduver code named Dead End and my agent Romance Jones Monday. And ofcourse that has dredged upt alot of emotions within myself and strees and etc. Uncle Ed and I have been trying to clean out a lot of demons that pulled into town a few weeks ago and so there is also a slight barrage of lower level astral attack going on. So being the creative terrorist that I am I am reading throught the scrip this afternoon after having a beer with the Last Mayor to escape the heat in my apartment and realize there is something blatantly missing from the story.....me. I really havent made anything up in this story, as bizarre as it is it could almost be a documentary. I have lived trough every scene or heard old tales around the proverbial campfire from the oldtimers and barstool prophets. I have been there for many of them....and active participatn and slight instegator into the living of a legend....Livingstoned in the Paradise Valley at the End of the World....I really have finally understood that my power on my path is to make this film and my life as a living breathing sigil. And so I must put myself on the screen to bear out my sins just like the rest of the actors.....look forward to joining you in digital and celluloid immortality.
