“ohhhh!” is right. Just learned Oliver Stone in fact directing “Wall Street 2,” in New York. I now publicly, officially put my foot in my mouth. “Hmmhmmhnnhnnenen” That’s me trying to talk with my foot in my mouth.
I should really know this as one of my immediate goals is to go to new york and work on the film standing in for Shia; whom I have met and stood in for previously.
In keeping with my primary Mantra; whatever happens works out to my advantage; I am now thrice motivated and shall go straight for this; already have my first draft cover letter to casting right ‘chere.
Let it be a testament to how thin every young man and woman in America is spread; myself several-times so. A generation overwhelmed. (not complaining; very grateful I; have my new gratuity journal also right ‘chere; today theme?- freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, aaron, aaron, aaron, aaron, merrick, aaron, todd, the grateful dead, freedom freedom, freedom ;-j
I’m going to go right for it.
He still want’s to be in the jungle’s of Thia Land; and that vid. of him speaking truly no affront to persons such as yourself on the cutting edge defining the new models; he’s bemoaning something else.

“Shifty Henry said to Bugs “For heaven’s sake.
No one’s lookin’ out a chance to make a break.
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, “Nix. nix.
I wanna stick around. I wanna get my kicks.”
Mr. Leonsis, I hope you’ll all indulge the length of this comment, but I think it’s important that I type this. I have lived in DC for my entire life, and I have a great deal of pride in that fact. I love this city dearly.
During a period of madness I watched as my city collapsed under dwindling population, appathetic federal involvement, and a plague of crack and murder. In short, our national city had become a national joke.
I can’t stress enough how much that hurt. It was like we weren’t allowed to have civic pride. How could you when were such a mess? We were dying.
It was in this environment that Mr. Pollin decided to build the finest building in sports in a bankrupt town with his own money. That gesture was the beginning of our rebirth. It saved my city.
It made it OK for other businesses to invest in the city. It brought people back to downtown. It was a huge act of faith in our town that made us feel that maybe we turned a corner. The Verizon Center gave us all hope that we could rebuild the city.
Whenever I’m around Chinatown, I marvel at the transformation of the neighborhood. whenever I bring someone downtown for the first time I have to tell the story. The story of how this building brought hope and pride to a city that was dying.
I’ve spent the last several day crying for an old man who I’ve never met. I don’t care what his contributions to sports were, and in DC they were without measure, his contributions to my hometown were even greater.
He was accused of running a “Mom & Pop” organization. Thank God he did. In my entire life I can say that I have always been proud of our representatives, on the court or on the ice, regardless of the win/loss record.
On the night they opened the then MCI Center, the crowd in the upper deck spontaneously broke into a cheer for Mr. Pollin that I would like to end with here:
“Thank you, Abe.”
