To me, every day is Veteran’s Day.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\nWhile I was at Glaco’s World Market this past weekend I heard this terrific song. (They always play 50’s music in the store!) Phil Phillips and “Sea of Love”<\/span> is a classic!<\/p>\n<\/iframe><\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Monday the 7th \u2013 OFF AND RUNNING! \u2013<\/span> My day started with several auditions that I recorded in my home studio and sent to my agents. Then I did some work around the house. Later, even MORE auditions poured in, so I recorded those. Then I sat down to compose Wally\u2019s Week for this period. When I finished I did a little prep for a session on Tuesday for a video game.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Tuesday the 8th \u2013 TOO ATTRACTIVE! \u2013<\/span> After a quick session in my home studio for an ongoing client, I walked over to Voice Trax West to meet up with one of my favorite video game directors; Bill Black. It was the first time I worked for him \u201cin-person\u201d in quite a long time. His schedule usually only allows him to work with his actors remotely. We worked for a few hours on a video game that\u2019s based on a major motion picture, and then he treated me to lunch next door at Chin Chin. It was fun sitting down to catch up on stuff, particularly since Bill is usually so busy and unable to chill for a few minutes. I enjoyed the beautiful walk home and did some work around the house. I recorded a few auditions, and then I started working with a different \u201cmagnetic\u201d idea to keep Super Grover\u2019s knight\u2019s helmet secured onto his head. I had tried magnets before, but eventually abandoned the idea. I tried a slightly different idea using three magnets and a metal piece that ran along the inside bottom of his helmet. But when I got the magnets installed inside the fur of the back of Grover\u2019s neck, the magnets were so strong they kept wanting to attract to each other instead of the metal in the helmet. It turned out to be a real mess, and I pulled everything out; the magnets, the metal band, everything. Back to the drawing board. It\u2019s the last time I\u2019ll consider using magnets for this problem. While the magnets are very strong and could hold the helmet nicely, their behavior is too unpredictable. So I went back to my hook and bar idea, but I couldn\u2019t find any hook and bar sets on Amazon that were big enough for my purposes. I went outside for a late-night WOG (walk\/jog) and spent a little time in the anti-grav chair looking at the sky and relaxing. It was a cloudy, cool night, and I could hear several owls hooting beautifully in the distance. Nice!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Wednesday the 9th \u2013 TREASURE TROVE! \u2013<\/span> After I recorded a few quick auditions and submitted them to my agent, I was on the way to Paty\u2019s to have lunch with my pal Sara. Afterwards I picked up a treasure trove of stuff at my box! Lotsa good stuff! First, I got four yards of a new fleece for puppet building called F3. I can\u2019t wait to see how it dyes and handles. Then I got a cool photo of Adam West on eBay, and he\u2019s sitting next to one of the Batman cowls I used to make. Great memories! I got some vinyl sheets of a specific jigsaw puzzle pattern that\u2019s used in the autism community for awareness. My sister\u2019s granddaughter (my great niece) is autistic, and my sister wants to make purses to give out as gifts with that specific pattern. Neither she nor I were able to find the correct pattern of fabric for this project, so I told her I\u2019d get some custom fabric made. But first I needed the correct design she liked. Once I get home, I\u2019ll scan the vinyl sheet and make a digital image of it, and my pal Scott Sebring will use that image to create the layout to order the cotton fabric my sister needs for the purses. My original iPod came back to me all fixed up. The hard drive had gone bad, so I had it replaced by a guy who is a genius at all the iPod technical things. I\u2019d have lots to keep me busy for a while with all this stuff. I gassed up the Gray Ghost and headed home. I restocked the iPod with all my tunes and it works great! I scanned the Adam West pic, as well as the jigsaw vinyl sheets. I did some more auditions and turned my attentions to the Super Grover helmet. Earlier in the day at lunch, Sara suggested using wig clips to clip the helmet into Grover\u2019s fur so it wouldn\u2019t slide back when I manipulated the puppet. I had considered that as an option early on, but I really didn\u2019t want the clips to accidentally damage the fur at all. But I got to thinking, and since I have lots of scrap fur left over from the build, I could easily replace any fur that gets damaged. So I dug out some wig clips from my stash in the Chaney Room, sewed three of them to little pieces of black leather, and glued the black leather pieces onto the inside bottom of the helmet. Once the glue cures, I\u2019m going to give it the stress test. Hopefully this will be the end of it. I have a fallback plan using a loop and strap system, but I\u2019m hoping the wig clips will give me the support I need. I went outside for a nice WOG (walk\/jog) and then spent some time relaxing outside in the anti-grav chair looking at the sky. I came inside to make a salad and watch an episode of \u201cThe Incredible Hulk,\u201d and \u201cHave Gun \u2013 Will Travel\u201d before bed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Thursday the 10th \u2013 CHANEY ROOM: REDUX! \u2013<\/span> The afternoon was filled with miscellaneous work around the house, making phone calls, and taking care of a few random things. Later I had lots of auditions to record. For the past several months I\u2019ve been looking at the storage shelves in the Chaney Room and thinking of ways I could repurpose them for other stuff. Many years ago the Chaney Room was a functional make-up and costuming room, for when I would dress up as various characters. But now that I\u2019m out of the visual character business, I need to throw out a lot of the make-up lotions and potions that were once a necessary part of my work. Many of the old contact lenses I used to use are no longer usable, and a lot of the cleaners, chemicals and solvents I used are out of date as well. I\u2019m going to have my pal Jim Ojala come by to take what he wants, and the rest will go in the trash. This will free up some space in the cubbies for storage of other things\u2026mainly puppet supplies. I did a little reorganization work, but got tired of it after a while. I\u2019d like to get some acrylic containers that fit nicely into the cubbies to dress up the look of the area a bit. I went outside for a nice WOG, and then spent some time in the anti-grav chair. I came inside and made a Tombstone pizza and did some detail work on my vintage set of Laurel and Hardy marionettes. On one of the controllers, a tiny little plastic clip that held one of the strings had snapped off. I took some Magic Sculpt and made a new clip. When it cures I\u2019ll drill a small hole into it, paint it to match, and it should be almost as good as new! I\u2019m going to a show at the Bob Baker Marionette Theater this Saturday, so I\u2019d like to get their opinion on how to restring these puppets properly.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Friday the 11th \u2013 CANCEL CULTURE! \u2013<\/span> When I signed onto my email to start the day I got some bad news. The Laurel and Hardy 12 inch figures I had ordered from a company in the UK called Big Chief back in 2020 were being cancelled for good. Obviously there was a delay with all of the nuttiness in 2020, but the company said they were still being made once the supply chain issues were resolved. They said as recently as a few months ago, that the figures were finally being released late summer\/early fall. So they were supposed to be heading my way literally in a few weeks. But with all of the delays, craziness and hiccups, the company decided to close its doors for good, and to cancel all pre-orders. Rats. I had been saving two spots on my 12 inch figure cabinet just for them. Oh well. A 3 year wait for nothing. Of course another company could buy them and honor all of their pre-orders, but it\u2019s not likely. I had a tele-med appointment with my Dr. at 11, and then my buddy James came by to help repair my downstairs toilet. He\u2019s much better at this kind of thing than I am, so I always appreciate his help with these matters. Afterwards we walked down the street to have a nice, relaxing lunch outside to enjoy the weather. When I got back I did some work around the house, and drilled a tiny hole in the piece I had made from Magic Sculpt on the marionette controller. I painted it red and it looked pretty slick! Later my friend Angi came over and we sat around deciding what to do with the evening. We decided to drive to Little Toni\u2019s to get some pizzas to go, and then come back and watch a movie. As Angi was looking through my movie cabinet she said, \u201cYou have \u2018Metropolis\u2019 on Blu-ray?\u201d I said, \u201cYou know what \u2018Metropolis\u2019 is?\u201d (She\u2019s only 26 years old). She said, \u201cI LOVE \u2018Metropolis!\u2019\u201d WOW! I was pleasantly flabbergasted! We decided to do \u201cMetropolis\u201d on another night, but for some reason she was into a horror movie. I\u2019ve had a DVD copy of Sam Raimi\u2019s \u201cDrag Me To Hell\u201d for years, but had never seen it. So we went upstairs, got our food situated and watched the film. It was a wild film with great effects by KNB, and the film was a great example of how practical effects and CGI can work together successfully. It was definitely a Sam Raimi film and had a lot of \u201cEvil Dead\u201d qualities about it. Later I went outside for some anti-grav time, but I was really tired. Since I didn\u2019t have anything to do on Saturday until later in the day, I took some Advil PM and got a good, solid 8 hours of sleep! I needed it!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Saturday the 12th \u2013 NOT ONE, BUT TWO BOB BAKERS! \u2013<\/span> Officer Mark came over mid-afternoon and we headed to Galco\u2019s World Market in Highland Park. They have sorts of vintage candies and sodas, and I like to go there about every 6 months and stock up. After we got some delicious sandwiches in the store\u2019s deli, I picked up a sack load of candy and bubble gum, and 3 cases of various sodas. Then we drove down the street and found parking so we could check out the \u201cHooray L.A.\u201d show at the Bob Baker Marionette Theatre. I had done the initial narration for this show many years ago, and had recently done some pick-ups for them, as they were updating the show for L.A.\u2019s upcoming birthday in September. We checked in to get our tickets and found our seats. The theater had changed quite a bit since I visited back in the spring of 2021! It was a whole different place, now that they\u2019re totally moved in and settled. The show was absolutely delightful, and I was surprised at how well it held the attention of the kids in the room! The show itself is only about 45 minutes long, perfect for a young child\u2019s short attention span, and each bit is no longer than 2 minutes; the perfect amount of time to hold a kid\u2019s attention before they start to get restless. The show moves really well and I was SO proud to be a part of it! We got some fun shots after the show, and I picked up two caps from the gift shop. One was for me, and the other is for a DIFFERENT Bob Baker I\u2019d be meeting with later that night. My friend Edi\u2019s dad is also named Bob Baker, so we thought it would be funny to get him a cap with the theatre\u2019s logo. Officer Mark and I went back to Planet Wallywood to refresh, and then we headed to the Smoke House for dinner with Edi, her dad, and friends. It was a great time, and I even brought Grover along for extra fun. It seemed that the people in the restaurant all loved seeing him! I love bringing the Muppet replicas out from time to time. Seeing the looks on people\u2019s faces when they see these iconic characters is priceless. Even though I\u2019m not the real guy, and just a fanboy, it doesn\u2019t seem to matter when people see these puppets. After a great meal I headed home and downloaded some of the photos from the day. Later I took a WOG and spent some relaxation\/meditation time in the anti-grav chair looking at the sky. There was a meteor shower going on for the next few nights, and while I was able to see a few, the L.A. sky is simply too light polluted to see many of them. I made Saturday Night Super Saint Salad and watched an episode of \u201cThe Saint\u201d before bed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Sunday the 13th \u2013 SMALL FANS, BIG FANS, SUPERFANS! \u2013<\/span> Over the past month or so my computer seems to have been emitting a large amount of heat. I asked my pal Joe (a computer expert) to see if he could come install two new fans I bought on Amazon into my computer. He and his wife Zandra arrived and we took the computer apart. While the computer WAS fairly dusty (on the fan, and in the vents and ports) it looked like the fans were working well. Replacement of the new fans wasn\u2019t possible, as they were much too small to fit in my computer. I had been given the wrong info for which type of fans to order, so they\u2019re going back to Amazon. We cleaned everything really well and put it back together. I turned the computer on and we decided to go to dinner to see if it heated up again while we were away. When we got back to Planet Wallywood everything seemed to be running nice and cool. Apparently the good cleaning we gave it was enough to keep things well ventilated. Later I scanned a bunch of checks for some deposits. The past several weeks I\u2019ve received about 50 individual residual checks for a comedy series I voiced many years ago. By now each check is for a very minimal amount, averaging 2 cents per check. But Screen Actor\u2019s Guild sent each check to me in an individual envelope! This is bizarre. It costs about 60 cents each time they send one of these 2 cent residual checks, which doesn\u2019t seem sensible. The total of all the checks was still only about a buck fifty, so it seems to me that sending all the residuals on one statement, and on one check is a more logical way to go. By the time I was done I didn\u2019t have much time to relax outside in the anti-grav chair. Besides, as it got closer to dawn it got cold and cloudy. I came inside and ate what was left of my Galco\u2019s deli sandwich.<\/p>\n<p>And how was YOUR week??!!<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">PIX FROM THE WEEK<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15262\" style=\"width:

<\/p>\n
While I was at Glaco’s World Market this past weekend I heard this terrific song. (They always play 50’s music in the store!) Phil Phillips and “Sea of Love”<\/span> is a classic!<\/p>\n<\/iframe><\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Monday the 7th \u2013 OFF AND RUNNING! \u2013<\/span> My day started with several auditions that I recorded in my home studio and sent to my agents. Then I did some work around the house. Later, even MORE auditions poured in, so I recorded those. Then I sat down to compose Wally\u2019s Week for this period. When I finished I did a little prep for a session on Tuesday for a video game.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Tuesday the 8th \u2013 TOO ATTRACTIVE! \u2013<\/span> After a quick session in my home studio for an ongoing client, I walked over to Voice Trax West to meet up with one of my favorite video game directors; Bill Black. It was the first time I worked for him \u201cin-person\u201d in quite a long time. His schedule usually only allows him to work with his actors remotely. We worked for a few hours on a video game that\u2019s based on a major motion picture, and then he treated me to lunch next door at Chin Chin. It was fun sitting down to catch up on stuff, particularly since Bill is usually so busy and unable to chill for a few minutes. I enjoyed the beautiful walk home and did some work around the house. I recorded a few auditions, and then I started working with a different \u201cmagnetic\u201d idea to keep Super Grover\u2019s knight\u2019s helmet secured onto his head. I had tried magnets before, but eventually abandoned the idea. I tried a slightly different idea using three magnets and a metal piece that ran along the inside bottom of his helmet. But when I got the magnets installed inside the fur of the back of Grover\u2019s neck, the magnets were so strong they kept wanting to attract to each other instead of the metal in the helmet. It turned out to be a real mess, and I pulled everything out; the magnets, the metal band, everything. Back to the drawing board. It\u2019s the last time I\u2019ll consider using magnets for this problem. While the magnets are very strong and could hold the helmet nicely, their behavior is too unpredictable. So I went back to my hook and bar idea, but I couldn\u2019t find any hook and bar sets on Amazon that were big enough for my purposes. I went outside for a late-night WOG (walk\/jog) and spent a little time in the anti-grav chair looking at the sky and relaxing. It was a cloudy, cool night, and I could hear several owls hooting beautifully in the distance. Nice!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Wednesday the 9th \u2013 TREASURE TROVE! \u2013<\/span> After I recorded a few quick auditions and submitted them to my agent, I was on the way to Paty\u2019s to have lunch with my pal Sara. Afterwards I picked up a treasure trove of stuff at my box! Lotsa good stuff! First, I got four yards of a new fleece for puppet building called F3. I can\u2019t wait to see how it dyes and handles. Then I got a cool photo of Adam West on eBay, and he\u2019s sitting next to one of the Batman cowls I used to make. Great memories! I got some vinyl sheets of a specific jigsaw puzzle pattern that\u2019s used in the autism community for awareness. My sister\u2019s granddaughter (my great niece) is autistic, and my sister wants to make purses to give out as gifts with that specific pattern. Neither she nor I were able to find the correct pattern of fabric for this project, so I told her I\u2019d get some custom fabric made. But first I needed the correct design she liked. Once I get home, I\u2019ll scan the vinyl sheet and make a digital image of it, and my pal Scott Sebring will use that image to create the layout to order the cotton fabric my sister needs for the purses. My original iPod came back to me all fixed up. The hard drive had gone bad, so I had it replaced by a guy who is a genius at all the iPod technical things. I\u2019d have lots to keep me busy for a while with all this stuff. I gassed up the Gray Ghost and headed home. I restocked the iPod with all my tunes and it works great! I scanned the Adam West pic, as well as the jigsaw vinyl sheets. I did some more auditions and turned my attentions to the Super Grover helmet. Earlier in the day at lunch, Sara suggested using wig clips to clip the helmet into Grover\u2019s fur so it wouldn\u2019t slide back when I manipulated the puppet. I had considered that as an option early on, but I really didn\u2019t want the clips to accidentally damage the fur at all. But I got to thinking, and since I have lots of scrap fur left over from the build, I could easily replace any fur that gets damaged. So I dug out some wig clips from my stash in the Chaney Room, sewed three of them to little pieces of black leather, and glued the black leather pieces onto the inside bottom of the helmet. Once the glue cures, I\u2019m going to give it the stress test. Hopefully this will be the end of it. I have a fallback plan using a loop and strap system, but I\u2019m hoping the wig clips will give me the support I need. I went outside for a nice WOG (walk\/jog) and then spent some time relaxing outside in the anti-grav chair looking at the sky. I came inside to make a salad and watch an episode of \u201cThe Incredible Hulk,\u201d and \u201cHave Gun \u2013 Will Travel\u201d before bed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Thursday the 10th \u2013 CHANEY ROOM: REDUX! \u2013<\/span> The afternoon was filled with miscellaneous work around the house, making phone calls, and taking care of a few random things. Later I had lots of auditions to record. For the past several months I\u2019ve been looking at the storage shelves in the Chaney Room and thinking of ways I could repurpose them for other stuff. Many years ago the Chaney Room was a functional make-up and costuming room, for when I would dress up as various characters. But now that I\u2019m out of the visual character business, I need to throw out a lot of the make-up lotions and potions that were once a necessary part of my work. Many of the old contact lenses I used to use are no longer usable, and a lot of the cleaners, chemicals and solvents I used are out of date as well. I\u2019m going to have my pal Jim Ojala come by to take what he wants, and the rest will go in the trash. This will free up some space in the cubbies for storage of other things\u2026mainly puppet supplies. I did a little reorganization work, but got tired of it after a while. I\u2019d like to get some acrylic containers that fit nicely into the cubbies to dress up the look of the area a bit. I went outside for a nice WOG, and then spent some time in the anti-grav chair. I came inside and made a Tombstone pizza and did some detail work on my vintage set of Laurel and Hardy marionettes. On one of the controllers, a tiny little plastic clip that held one of the strings had snapped off. I took some Magic Sculpt and made a new clip. When it cures I\u2019ll drill a small hole into it, paint it to match, and it should be almost as good as new! I\u2019m going to a show at the Bob Baker Marionette Theater this Saturday, so I\u2019d like to get their opinion on how to restring these puppets properly.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Friday the 11th \u2013 CANCEL CULTURE! \u2013<\/span> When I signed onto my email to start the day I got some bad news. The Laurel and Hardy 12 inch figures I had ordered from a company in the UK called Big Chief back in 2020 were being cancelled for good. Obviously there was a delay with all of the nuttiness in 2020, but the company said they were still being made once the supply chain issues were resolved. They said as recently as a few months ago, that the figures were finally being released late summer\/early fall. So they were supposed to be heading my way literally in a few weeks. But with all of the delays, craziness and hiccups, the company decided to close its doors for good, and to cancel all pre-orders. Rats. I had been saving two spots on my 12 inch figure cabinet just for them. Oh well. A 3 year wait for nothing. Of course another company could buy them and honor all of their pre-orders, but it\u2019s not likely. I had a tele-med appointment with my Dr. at 11, and then my buddy James came by to help repair my downstairs toilet. He\u2019s much better at this kind of thing than I am, so I always appreciate his help with these matters. Afterwards we walked down the street to have a nice, relaxing lunch outside to enjoy the weather. When I got back I did some work around the house, and drilled a tiny hole in the piece I had made from Magic Sculpt on the marionette controller. I painted it red and it looked pretty slick! Later my friend Angi came over and we sat around deciding what to do with the evening. We decided to drive to Little Toni\u2019s to get some pizzas to go, and then come back and watch a movie. As Angi was looking through my movie cabinet she said, \u201cYou have \u2018Metropolis\u2019 on Blu-ray?\u201d I said, \u201cYou know what \u2018Metropolis\u2019 is?\u201d (She\u2019s only 26 years old). She said, \u201cI LOVE \u2018Metropolis!\u2019\u201d WOW! I was pleasantly flabbergasted! We decided to do \u201cMetropolis\u201d on another night, but for some reason she was into a horror movie. I\u2019ve had a DVD copy of Sam Raimi\u2019s \u201cDrag Me To Hell\u201d for years, but had never seen it. So we went upstairs, got our food situated and watched the film. It was a wild film with great effects by KNB, and the film was a great example of how practical effects and CGI can work together successfully. It was definitely a Sam Raimi film and had a lot of \u201cEvil Dead\u201d qualities about it. Later I went outside for some anti-grav time, but I was really tired. Since I didn\u2019t have anything to do on Saturday until later in the day, I took some Advil PM and got a good, solid 8 hours of sleep! I needed it!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Saturday the 12th \u2013 NOT ONE, BUT TWO BOB BAKERS! \u2013<\/span> Officer Mark came over mid-afternoon and we headed to Galco\u2019s World Market in Highland Park. They have sorts of vintage candies and sodas, and I like to go there about every 6 months and stock up. After we got some delicious sandwiches in the store\u2019s deli, I picked up a sack load of candy and bubble gum, and 3 cases of various sodas. Then we drove down the street and found parking so we could check out the \u201cHooray L.A.\u201d show at the Bob Baker Marionette Theatre. I had done the initial narration for this show many years ago, and had recently done some pick-ups for them, as they were updating the show for L.A.\u2019s upcoming birthday in September. We checked in to get our tickets and found our seats. The theater had changed quite a bit since I visited back in the spring of 2021! It was a whole different place, now that they\u2019re totally moved in and settled. The show was absolutely delightful, and I was surprised at how well it held the attention of the kids in the room! The show itself is only about 45 minutes long, perfect for a young child\u2019s short attention span, and each bit is no longer than 2 minutes; the perfect amount of time to hold a kid\u2019s attention before they start to get restless. The show moves really well and I was SO proud to be a part of it! We got some fun shots after the show, and I picked up two caps from the gift shop. One was for me, and the other is for a DIFFERENT Bob Baker I\u2019d be meeting with later that night. My friend Edi\u2019s dad is also named Bob Baker, so we thought it would be funny to get him a cap with the theatre\u2019s logo. Officer Mark and I went back to Planet Wallywood to refresh, and then we headed to the Smoke House for dinner with Edi, her dad, and friends. It was a great time, and I even brought Grover along for extra fun. It seemed that the people in the restaurant all loved seeing him! I love bringing the Muppet replicas out from time to time. Seeing the looks on people\u2019s faces when they see these iconic characters is priceless. Even though I\u2019m not the real guy, and just a fanboy, it doesn\u2019t seem to matter when people see these puppets. After a great meal I headed home and downloaded some of the photos from the day. Later I took a WOG and spent some relaxation\/meditation time in the anti-grav chair looking at the sky. There was a meteor shower going on for the next few nights, and while I was able to see a few, the L.A. sky is simply too light polluted to see many of them. I made Saturday Night Super Saint Salad and watched an episode of \u201cThe Saint\u201d before bed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Sunday the 13th \u2013 SMALL FANS, BIG FANS, SUPERFANS! \u2013<\/span> Over the past month or so my computer seems to have been emitting a large amount of heat. I asked my pal Joe (a computer expert) to see if he could come install two new fans I bought on Amazon into my computer. He and his wife Zandra arrived and we took the computer apart. While the computer WAS fairly dusty (on the fan, and in the vents and ports) it looked like the fans were working well. Replacement of the new fans wasn\u2019t possible, as they were much too small to fit in my computer. I had been given the wrong info for which type of fans to order, so they\u2019re going back to Amazon. We cleaned everything really well and put it back together. I turned the computer on and we decided to go to dinner to see if it heated up again while we were away. When we got back to Planet Wallywood everything seemed to be running nice and cool. Apparently the good cleaning we gave it was enough to keep things well ventilated. Later I scanned a bunch of checks for some deposits. The past several weeks I\u2019ve received about 50 individual residual checks for a comedy series I voiced many years ago. By now each check is for a very minimal amount, averaging 2 cents per check. But Screen Actor\u2019s Guild sent each check to me in an individual envelope! This is bizarre. It costs about 60 cents each time they send one of these 2 cent residual checks, which doesn\u2019t seem sensible. The total of all the checks was still only about a buck fifty, so it seems to me that sending all the residuals on one statement, and on one check is a more logical way to go. By the time I was done I didn\u2019t have much time to relax outside in the anti-grav chair. Besides, as it got closer to dawn it got cold and cloudy. I came inside and ate what was left of my Galco\u2019s deli sandwich.<\/p>\n<p>And how was YOUR week??!!<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">PIX FROM THE WEEK<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15262\" style=\"width:
