A Gary Larson FAR SIDE card showing the BEWITCHED writing staff brainstorming in the fourth season. Brilliant notions like: “What if Endora casts a spell on Darren?”
Allstate accident report I was supposed to fill out in 2003.

I can't be alone in wanting to know the subject matter of your rabbi's spec script.
Nilsson Schmilsson
Gawd. I've been waiting a looooong time to use that phrase. Thanks.
Wait, AfterMASH had writers???
Sorry... :-)
The Harry Nilssen documentary is phenomenal, isn't it? My brother had been waiting four years for it to come out on DVD.
Your desk must be 40 feet long...
Wow. No photos of Natalie Wood? I'm shocked!
I wonder why she drowned, I thought Wood floats......
Prior to it being your desk, did it belong to Carnival Cruise Lines?
I totally agree about "Who Is Harry Nilsson (And Why Is Everybody Talkin' About Him)?" It was a brilliant decision by John Scheinfeld to only interview people who actually knew Harry.
No phone?
The Nilsson doc is on my Christmas list. Glad it's finally seeing the light of day.
Ah, thanks so much for mentioning the Harry Nilsson doc - just watched (instant Netflix gratification). One of the best music docs I've seen in ages. Lovely.
Wanted to chime in that the Nilsson doc is on netflix instant stream, but someone beat me to it.
Owning things is so 5 years ago.
Thanks for the heads up on the Nilsson dvd. I've been a fan of his since the late '60s and absolutely loved his stuff. The first album I bought when I joined the RCA record club in high school in '72 was Nilsson Schmilsson. Priceless!
Long live Harry Nilsson! And, of course Ken Levine!
Thanks to you, I just added the Harry Nilsson documentary to my Netflix. "Everybody's Talkin'" is my all-time favorite song. The area around your Mac looks very much like mine. Except, I have a model of my favorite car ('64 1/2 Mustang), and a Nabisco Spoonman.
One has truly reached their moment of immortality when a tchochke they gave you ends up on this list. I can die happy.

With all the free time they have, clergymen might have the perfect day job for the aspiring screenwriter.
I would really like to know more about Froggy Gremlin...does he bend or pose or walk or talk? Or is he one of those fantastic toys that require a little imagination out of the kid playing with it?
