How this blog got its name
------------------------------------
There was a large painting of Evel Knievel shaking hands with Richard Nixon. It hung in the Mayors office. Late one evening after everyone went home. I took it down to the lab. I zoomed in on Evel’s left eye a 100x and enhanced it. It was an address. I went to the address. It was a modest, 1970’s style, split level ranch home in the suburbs.
-----------------------------------
Inside I found a dead parrot lying on a waterbed. I revived the parrot with some saltines and adrenaline. We became good friends. The parrots name was Randy. One night a few years later while Randy and me played Gin Rummy, he sang me a song about a fire. The title of this blog was never mentioned but I sensed it, and Randy confirmed it by giving me ‘THE LOOK’.

So I’m doing a new book. Many of you might be familiar with the little Choose Your Own Mustache Adventure that I did online. I thought it would be fun to turn that into a full length book. I also wanted to collaborate on a book with some friends… so I combined the two ideas and have come up with Choose Your Own Author. The book will be quite similar to a Choose Your Own Adventure book only it will be for adults and be written by many wonderfully creative and insane people. I also have various artists contributing different illustrations as well.
At some point we’ll hopefully be able to open up the whole process for some reader submissions, written & drawn.
