Thanks, Rick, for passing on these remarkable stories, reminding us of human generosity, that it still exists. Good movie making and story telling keep us glued together, to each other and to this world we call home.
"Schmidt's outside the box approach has resulted in the launch of countless moviemaking careers, for those who put his ideas into practice." That's another thing about doing what we love: We don't "just" lift ourselves - important as that is - we lift others with us. That's how it works.
Thanks Steve for reminding me that although ‘making art’ ourselves may seem like a selfish endeavor to some, we are inadvertently in the business of encouraging LOVE, or at least positive energy to those we come in contact with.

Thanks Galen. Hope you like the tales to follow. Please enjoy my next few stories, from my cross country hitchhiking, ‘69.

I look forward to reading them....what a year was 1969.
