I had a great time fly fishing up in Montana the first week of July. The fishing was spectacular as was the scenery. A heavier than normal snow pack over the winter can be thanked. Back in Southern Cal things haven't changed much. The actors and the studios still haven't reached an agreement and now there appears to be dissention among the union. A group of well known actors such as Tom Hanks and Sally Field are now trying to gain momentum to possibly replace the faction that are negotiating the contract. Can you say mutiny? This could be interesting. I just want to the whole thing to end so things can get back to normal, or as normal as things in Hollywood ever are!

Well, now that the writers have settled their contract disputes it now seems that the Screen Actors Guild might strike. All new projects have been on hold for some time now awaiting any significant news about their contract. So far none and work in the industry is at a stand still especially for people below the line such as carpenters, electricians etc. Let's hope they can settle this thing so we all can go back to work and get things done.

Dr. Black was on the Larry King Show last week discussing Senator Kennedy's situation and also the relevance of cell phones and brain tumors. As of now, there seems to be no significant connection between the two. He has been given a grant to continue to study it. I can't believe he didn't mention me! LOL

Well, the writers strike is over and now I am back working on finalizing the book and movie deal along with rewriting a portion of the book.  It all has to do with this past summer's events that I will go public with shortly. So until then, have a fantastic President's Day!

Be well,

Jim

Back into the swing of things after a rough summer! I am heading off to Montana for some good fall fly fishing. Lots of fall colors and hungry Westslope Cutthroats await me.  I'll make sure and take plenty of pics.

 Be well.
