Thanks everyone.

I started the B-Day off with a very drunken midnight movie, NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER at the New Beverly Cinema. It was an awesome action/expliotation flick with James Brolin (and his big bushy beard) a young Dan Hedeya (who looks exactly likwe old Dan Hedeya) and a very young Mandy Patinkin that played out like DEATH WISH meets THE WARRIORS. You won't find this one on DVD.

While there a friend of mine gave me a DVD of THE UNSEEN, which doesn't come out for a couple of weeks yet. It's a monster movie set in the Danish community of Slovang, CA which is one of my favorite day-trip destinations. I can't wait to watch it.

Then I had Mexican with some friends and went to Dark Delicasies (awesome horror book store and home of horror signings) .

Now I'm getting ready to put the finishing touches on my homemade BBQ sauce and pull my pork from the oven so I can enjoy a couple of beers while eating a BBQ sandwich with slaw and watch my Redskins on preseason football!
