Emergence

Everybody wants to be Toe Knee. As soon as you find your place to sit at the table, you start seeing a line form from across the room. How in the world could I ever expect to reconnect with all those past genius associates, or the future unknown surprise with these kinds of conditions? Already the planet is too small. too many Toe Knees.

I guess, like opinions, excuses and assholes everyone has (one) or two or a few.

I guess I'd better get used to it.

I suppose my production/studio/life path name has already been taken by pioneer bloggers too. I'll wait before I try that one. Besides, I have enough to deal with, now that I realize I have almost been replaced before I ever showed up.

I don't see any reason to go to the UN yet, like Madonna did. Sure, I can prove I was Toe Knee, doing the Toe Knee Show in Palo Aalto (still) California, long before most of those imposters even knew what a computer was.... but there's always that one guy (or girl) in some far off place that's been a toe and knee combination before me... so it goes... guess I will just have to get used to it.

For the longest time I hae resisted this blogger world reality for the same reasons that I have debated continuing my tv show. I have seen the thread of many of my tv show ideas running through recent movies, reality tv, and commercials. I have heard the hooky lyrical twists on my various songs launched through my show. I have heard ideas repeated back to me that just ring too close to the words I spoke from my editing table direct to the camera. I've met the friends of movie and tv producers who told me that their producer friends loved my show. never heard from any of the professionals... but as they say, imitation is the profound form of flattery... so it goes.

Well, here I am. In your target range, on your computer screen. This has to mean that my past few years of self repair must have (somewhat ) worked. Just what kind of announcements, ideas, stories and/or songs will I be serving you with? Will you notice?

Will any of those cherished past friends find me by sorting through the thousands of Toe Knees, in order to validate that the achievements of our shared journies were/are really real (whatever that means)?

Wow.

Excuse me while I absorb the reality that I am again findable.

Wow.

so.... here goes everything... let me know if you find value here. Any Californians who travel through the mid-peninsula on a Thursday nite or Friday eve, tune to local cable and catch the tv show. all other friends, get ready for the Toe Knee Blog. The real Toe Knee blog, that is.... no matter whoh those other folks say they are, I sincerely doubt they realize they have been stepping in my do do, unknowingly... that actually might be really great, lord knows that not all my audience thinks I am the cats meow....
