BooksA bunch... Just read A Whole New Mind by Daniel H. Pink... pretty interesting. I used to like Stephen King a life ago. Who Killed Hollywood by Peter Bart is a great book to understand why we've been watching so much crap on the silver screen for the last ten years or more.

MySpace Layouts
After an unusual career as an independent filmmaker that started at the early age of 16, Ricardo Islas left his home country Uruguay, to come to America in June 1997, as he was invited by the Chicago International Latino Film Festival. Soon, he joined the staff of WYCC as a producer/director for the pioneer parenting Spanish TV show Nuestros Niños. Islas brought to the show and to other WYCC productions his technical experience, his story telling abilities, but most important, his human sensibility after growing up in a poor South American small town and going through all the ups and downs of his migratory adventure. Besides his career in TV, Islas has written, produced and directed more than ten length-features and two mini-series. Some of his productions have won international awards that have positioned Islas as a cult director in different parts of the world. ALL THE VIDEOS DISPLAYED IN THIS PROFILE WERE PRODUCED BY US (ALPHA STUDIOS) So if you want to take a look at them, you will pretty much get an idea of what we have been up to lately...

Free Tommy Chong DVD WITH KING BONG ON JULY 7TH!
Get it at fullmoondirect.com!


That's right! Larnell (John Jordan), Luanne (Robin Sydney) and those crazy dudes from EVIL BONG are back for a bigger hit! Suffering from bizarre side-effects caused by smoking weed from the Evil Bong, they travel to South America in search of a cure. Deep in the jungle, they encounter the deadly KING BONG and are soon locked in a trippy - and hilarious - battle with their old nemesis Eebee and the dangerously sexy Poontang Tribe! If you enjoyed "Evil Bong", then you must have been really high! And you'll especially love "King Bong", loaded with gore, weed, and beautiful women making it the ultimate stoner-horror comedy!

Hey Ricardo,
Just dropping by your page to show you some love and thank you for your friendship. I figure you've got enough bands shamelessly prostituting themselves on myspace that I'll spare you another! We actually take a genuine interest in talking to the people we befriend and are always looking to reach out and connect with locals. Feel free to drop by our page and check out our sound (mixing Hip Hop w/ Rock) or just shoot the breeze with us. Don't be a stranger now! Peace and Love.
