A-Color s a self proclaimed proponent of the “if you want it done to your satisfaction, better do it yourself” school of thought and a charter member in the Adrian Monk “I’m sure that picture is hanging crooked” fraternity, I have stubbornly wanted to be the architect of my own website. The fact that I don’t have the first clue of how to write/edit HTML, CSS or JavaScript, however, has provided me with an easy excuse for procrastination so far.

Having said that, there are only so many times I can respond to the question, “...do you have a website”? with “no, but I have a resume”.

Fortunately, my discovery of RapidWeaver and the very creative community of developers and users surrounding this software has short-circuited my last excuse for not giving this a real try.

So I set myself to the task of gathering multi-media memories – video clips, recordings, various photos and scans – sort of a non-chemically induced flashback.

As I edit this autobiographical virtual world and it begins to coalesce, the annoying buzz of second-guessing descends like a fly at a barbeque - "this is an exercise in self-indulgence, isn't it?".
But then it occurs to me (rather conveniently) that I could just as easily look at it as another way of putting together a new type of resume – the 21st century paperless version. And resumes are, after all, focused on the subject of the resume.

In the movie The Big Chill - Jeff Golblum’s character, Michael Gold, said, “I don’t know anyone who could get through the day without two or three juicy rationalizations”.
He was right.

So, WELCOME!
With any luck this will prove to be more entertaining than a few pieces of paper.

Susanna Lo's thriller biopic, “Manson Girls” is currently in production
with Guy Allison at the helm as the film’s composer.

John McFee of the Doobie Brothers is lending his considerable talent to the project
as well as violin virtuoso,
Lili Haydn.

The script is a fresh look at the now infamous lives and tragic events that took place during the summer of love.

The story follows the girls as they become embroiled in a world that will forever change their lives and the lives of the families and friends of their innocent victims.

The movie is slated for theatrical release in the summer of 2012.

It also debuted in the Top 40 of the Billboard 200 at #39 and at #31 on the Top Digital Albums chart.

Now, I wouldn’t normally post this, but as a keyboardist in a guitar driven band, I couldn’t resist this excerpt from a “World Gone Crazy” review...

"Willie Nelson makes a guest appearance on the song “I Know We Won.” “I Know We Won” is very pretty song. I know I said above I preferred the guitar driven Doobie Brothers songs to the piano driven songs, but “I Know We Won” is the exception. I really love the piano in the song. I don’t know that I’d call “I Know We Won” piano driven though, it seems to be a complete band effort, more so than most of their songs."
