For those who don't know, I'm not only a snarky poster, I'm also a publisher.
At the end of April, I'll be releasing Jill Alexander Essbaum's Necropolis, a pretty awesome collection of her poetry. Like, way awesome.
The book will retail for $13.95, 'Merican.
For Barrelhouse blog readers, I'm offering a prepub price of $10, with free media mail postage. (Add two bucks for fancier mailing.)
We can do this via U.S. post or PayPal. email me at neo (at) neonuma (dot) com.
Oh yeah, and go to my blog. I'd posted a question that might be of interest to Barrelhousers. But that's less required than buying Jillie's book. That's required.
Oh, and as to who should play me in a Barrelhouse movie (as a bit player in a crowd scene, of course), I'd really prefer to play myself (have to use that theater degree sometime) or else Sean Connery, because if I can't play with Sean Connery, I'd like him to play me.
Probably a little of both, Mike. As long as it isn't "But I'm A Cheerleader" Natasha Leone, who was both a little too girly AND a little too gay to be me.
See, I called Eric Bana for Dave. Then again, Eric Bana used to be the poor man's Mark Ruffalo, and now he's the rich man's Mark Ruffalo, so maybe you're right.
And dude--amazing call on Matt being played by the Flight of the Concords dude.
But it's cute how you didn't include yourself in that list, Mike. And no, I don't count "whichever Olson twin is the bigger coke whore" as an answer. Because that's obviously a trick question, anyway.
Barrelhouse is a literary journal that bridges the gap between high and low culture. This is the blog firmly planted in the low side of things: random thoughts from our editors and friends on music, movies, television, bubblegum cards, Mr. T, the importance of the movie Roadhouse and whatever else we argue about after we've had too many Brooklyn Browns.

What, we don't get a theatrical release? No festival circuit?
Oh, and to answer your question: whichever Olson twin is the bigger coke whore.
Did you hear about Pee Wee Herman's latest theatrical release?
It slid down the back of the seat in front of him.
Jenna Jameson.
Or, just kidding: RuPaul.
Or, just kidding again: Patrick Swayze.
(But the truth? Natasha Leone, I think. But with just a little more verve.)
Would that be the Natasha Leone of American Pie/Slums of Beverly Hills, or the Natasha Leone of cracked-out mugshots?

Well, since the other kids aren't playing, I'll just have to fill in their cast data myself:
Dave = Mark Ruffalo or Richard Hatch back in his skinny Survivor days.
Aaron = Stone Cold Steve Austin. Or a young, mustachioed Telly Savalas.
Joe = that dude from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia who looks exactly like Joe. Or Helen Hunt.
Matt = the shaggier of the two guys from Flight of the Concords. Or whichever Teletubbie was the gay one.
TMC = Barry Bonds.
See, I called Eric Bana for Dave. Then again, Eric Bana used to be the poor man's Mark Ruffalo, and now he's the rich man's Mark Ruffalo, so maybe you're right.
