My friend Chambers surprised us with tickets to THE BEACH BOYS JULY 4TH SPECTACULAR at the Hollywood Bowl last night. Am a lifelong fan but had never seen them live. Fantastic show w/ great fireworks, and a fun way to celebrate #July4th. 😀 🇺🇸 #America250 #IndependenceDay

This is your periodic reminder that if you have (or get) a #library card, not only do you get books (awesome), but most major library systems are part of #HOOPLA and #KANOPY streaming services, which means tons of FREE movies & TV. 👍

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. Here's a pic of my dad with his 2 kids...before the Rebellion. We were troopin' and shootin' (not well) and generally stomping on everybody they told us to. Life was good, until the Rebellion got too big... #StarWars #FathersDay

Now rewatching ALIEN NATION, on Prime. Caan and Patinkin are so much fun in this. A remake stalled out five or so years ago, but I'm still hoping we get it one day.

Yesterday we went to the spectacular and free "Glory Hall" exhibit celebrating THE BOYS: costumes, props, set recreations + a short documentary on the making of the gospel song. They took a commemorative photo and fed us with a show-themed snack and drink. We had a great time. 😀 #TheBoys

Loaded up on #books at my local B&N. I can never have enough books. #horror #thrillers

Loving Spider-Noir. Cage and the entire cast are terrific. The b/w makes it period fun, like Godzilla Minus One. This show gives me hope we might see The Phantom, The Shadow or even Doc Savage on the small screen some day. 😃

As always, when I’m at Bob's Big Boy in #Burbank I stop by to say hi to #DavidLynch. 😃

Saw a pair of coyotes out and about this morning in Burbank. This is why we don't let our cats outside. This particular guy was bold. I stopped the car in the middle of the road and we had a stare down. Finally, he moved on... #Burbank #Coyotes #Wildlife

Now watching: SHOOT TO KILL, an underrated buddy outdoor adventure thriller that coaxed Sidney Poitier back after 11 years away. Great cast with a twisty, fun story. I have the screenplay and the film score, too.

Gas is getting so expensive I'm starting to empathize with Humungus. #gas #gasprices #LosAngeles

About time for an OUTLAND rewatch.

Wow! ANGEL DOWN by @danielkraus.com wins the 2026 #PulitzerPrize for fiction. 👏👏👏👏 www.pulitzer.org/winners/dani...

The story of how I met #Chewbacca will always be my favorite STAR WARS story (posted to Facebook 7/20/16): I saw something at Disneyland yesterday that touched me. We were in line to have Alexa meet Mickey Mouse. Yes, I realize the pic is of Chewie, but I'm going somewhere with this. #StarWars

What is your favorite book-themed t-shirt? "It's a beautiful day to read banned books."

One of my #life #goals is to fill the gaps in my Uncanny #X-Men collection from No. 1 to current. That is a tall order given I have gaps of entire years. But I do make progress, book by book. Today's acquisition:

Happy #Easter. The bunny brought me this really big egg. 😀

Put BLUE THUNDER to the top of my watchlist yesterday. I love it so much I have an insert poster hanging in my place. I love it so much that "F.E." is still a catchphrase between me and a childhood friend. So, yeah, I like this film.

Terrific turnout for #NoKingsDay at Abraham Lincoln Park in #Burbank today. Even the farm animals came out to say "No kings!" So many great protest signs. 👏

Show somebody who absolutely rocks a hat and isn't Indiana Jones.

Sitting on the steps in downtown #Burbank this morning enjoying my #coffee. #Batman seems cranky, as usual.

It got inside.

Post a great photo of a musician.

Impromtu solo road trip to RED ROCK CANYON STATE PARK today. I had it all to myself. I fell a bunch of times due to heavy wind, but thankfully the ground caught me 😀. I do love it there.

Whenever I get the urge to do some abstract painting, I know I'm in too deep with #writing and need to change things up creatively. The process has an equal amount of intention, and I really enjoy the physicality and discovery. Got 3 more in the works. #abstractpainting #art 🧑‍🎨

Popped into this cool little used bookshop in Sherman Oaks today...and walked out w/ THE OLIVER STONE EXPERIENCE by @mattzollerseitz.bsky.social. What a book...I needed a forklift just to get it in my car. 😀 🎬 📚

Studies repeatedly prove that sleeping with your feet outside the blanket increases the likelihood of monsters by 75%. #scary #monsters #horrorsky

Few snaps I took of the cool Monarch: Legacy of Monsters drone show in downtown LA last night. #Godzilla #KingKong #Monarch

What's a perfect movie that never got a sequel?

Somehow a 1979 novel called THE NIGHTWALKER by Thomas Tessier entered my awareness. After a glance at how well regarded it is, I'm eager to read it. #horror #horrorsky #fiction #scary
