My Encounter With Mandeep

It has been a long, long time since I've written a real blog. Since the pandemic days, in fact. But this warrants it. So there I was, going about my usual afternoon busywork at the AVN compound, when I hear a call from downstairs: "Hello?" I thought I heard my co-worker moving in that direction to see what was up, but then a few minutes later: "Hello?" Looked like it was gonna be up to me. So down the stairs I plodded, and immediately found myself face-to-face with a short, pudgy, balding man seemingly of Indian descent, whom I will call "Mandeep" for the purposes of discretion.  "Hello sir, is there somebody I can talk to here? This is the AVN?" he asked me. "Well yes, what do you need?" I asked. "I have traveled so far, I just need to talk with somebody who can help me," he implored. "OK ... what's happening? What's your question?" I persisted. "I want to find out how can I get into the industry?...

A Chat With Acme Andersson About Leonard Cohen, Dolly Parton and Passover

Scrog: i gotta go out and get some candy today
Acme: Oh yeah, who doesn't need candy?!
S: nobody of quality, that's for sure
A: Oh man, I forgot to tell you! I went to perhaps the greatest gathering of Jews over this entire holiday weekend! Leonard Cohen
S: spock?
A: That's Leonard Nimoy, and he was an alien of some sort, unaffiliated with the Hebrew types so far as I know.
S: oh, right
A: A Jew who doesn't even know who Leonard Cohen is. Terrible.
S: i am jew-ish
A: Young Dolly Parton did not have much of a rack.
S: c'mon
A: I've got her biography on. She wasn't flat, but she was not fully-blessed, as they say.
S: unpossible. speaking of being jewish, i had some fellow jew yesterday tell me i had passover all wrong.
A: Passover is all wrong, isn't it? What did you have wrong? Celebrating it?
S: i'm not sure. the only major point i could discern in his version was that i said it was 40 days in the desert, when it was actually 40 years

A: Either is too long for me. According to Wikipedia, Dolly had 40DD titties!
S: bless her heart. my blood-dr. pepper level is running a little low.
A: Open another 18-pack—stat!
S: but i haven't one!
A: Dude... What happened? You changed.
S: no, i just ran out.
A: Dolly says that when she took the role in 9 to 5 she had never seen a movie made and when they sent her the script she memorized the entire thing! That wacky Dolly.
S: i don't believe it
A: Hill folk are always memorizing entire screenplays. It's true! Dolly never lies.
S: ok. to the grocery for candy & soda.
A: Good luck.
