DoinG thE EnterTainMent and moVie ThaNg!!

I’ve got to wear a lot of hats in my ADHD lifetime - took many risks, having some catastrophic failures and many great rewards. Fortunate (perhaps a misnomer) to get involved in a few businesses that are the riskiest money losers imaginable short of being in the horse racing business. Books, Music, Movies and Art.

Time to pay Attention everybody - the World is changing. Fast. Looking at this Globe that my parents bought me back when I was a kid in the 1960's, I found it interesting to look at it from a different perspective just by happenstance. Took 67 years to see it this way, peering from the top down. We seldom if ever see it pictured that way. And this isn't going to be a political statement my friends. It's quite the contrary.
