Here is the run of 2008 and 2009's PG-Porn along with the IGN and uncensored episodes (which you may need to be logged into YouTube for) along with selected YouTube behind-the-scenes from James's Channel and from Spike's PG-Porn behind-the-scenes tab. I did the titles on all of them except for High Poon.
Spike.com/pgporn Episodes:
These are the ones that were filtered through Spike's censors, but there are some great episodes here like the one with Alan Tudyk in High Poon (another favorite).

The Long Beach Flood 2010
Just recently, last summer actually, I returned to Long Beach to visit where I grew up. Took nearly 300 pix of where I hung out, went to school and eventually blogged about it. Long Beach: Returning to Willmore City After 18 Years. The name Willmore City comes from William E. Willmore's failed farm community that would later become Long Beach.
All this week, SoCal has three storms coming in. Yesterday was the second with a tornado warning and the YouTubing started. A third one is on the way. Good luck to all my brohams in LBC.
Forgive some of these videos. I tried to pick short ones. I realize this isn't as tragic as say the war in Iraq, Haiti or all the other shit in the world, but this is a place where I grew up. I know these streets where these videos were taken. Even my old street Roswell and high school fell victim to the flood.
Here's one of a bag lady floating through the water.
Here's one of a dude canoeing through the streets.
Parking garage flooding
River flow of someone's apartment complex
A dude stops to show us how the flood as affected some.
My favorite place to eat, Casa Sanchez, was flooded.
Here are more pix from the street I grew up on. Once again, good luck out there.

THE X-RAY EYE SOCIETY (Deluxe Edition)
This entry is a collection of blogs originally posted on myspace.com/xrayeye which also appear in the script as part of the plot. Keeping The X-ray Eye Society separate from some of the things I say, said, do and did on MySpace was important in the sense that it's a script designed for kids and ultimately family fare. The MySpace pages is loaded with tunes, games, gadgets and other childhood junk. But more importantly the story was embedded into social networks and was interactively part of the storyline. After I finished the script I more or less abandoned the page.
The flash movie below was resized by 25% from the original size.
So here are the blogs as they appeared on MySpace.
The New X-RAY EYE SOCIETY Site is Up!

Well, it's sorta up. Here's the preview of the flash page that's featured at WillmoreCity.com. I've tried to keep everything contained in the flash seeing that MySpace has a funky way of linking. The script is complete and I've went from an 84-page rough draft, to a 98-page re-draft and after it was all said and done with all the trims and fixes, I ended up with a tight 88-page script. There will be excerpts soon. The excerpts page in the flash is disabled for now, but there's plenty of other stuff to look at.
I disabled the flash movie here because it plays music as this bog loads. If you want to check out the movie, you can check it out at The X-ray Eye Society page.

Well, also to pimp the script.
There's plenty of pix in the gallery, so check 'em all out if you want.

If you celeb/exec-types are squeamish about copyright-violation consider this my poorman's release form. "I will not sue you or pursue legal action if you should come up with something similar". I believe that'll hold up, but everything below is sparce anyway.
Proceeding...
The new script is nearing completion. It's both unlike anything I've written and yet, it's kinda typical. The unusual part of this story is that it's a fun-for-the-whole-family kinda flick. Hard to say if it's a family flick, but it's certainly not a kid's flick. The kids range from 7-12 and the younger the kids the more evil they are--it's part of the plot.
Without getting into too much of the plot, the story's about a group of resourceful kids who solve mysteries and one day they come up against something huge. My attempt with this story was not to make something original, but to use something you've seen before and spin it into something unique. Where a lot of kid/family movies fail for me is when they purposely go out to make the adults dumber and goofier than they would really be. I think that's one of the failures of Holes. While I do enjoy the movie, I coulda done without some of the cartoony adult performances. I tried to place everyone on an equal intellectual playing field.
Not only was this story designed as a mass appeal kinda thing, but also to bring back some creepiness. There's something about younger kids involved with the supernatural that adds a little more urgency. Whereas before I had written about kick-ass heroes that feared nothing but failure. Here, their friends and other kids' lives are at stake.
Oh, and before anybody asks, "No, it wasn't hard to keep the profanity outta the script."
Oh, here's one of the character designs: Luther Hoodwinkle.
You all may or may not know, but there's an X-ray Eye Society MySpace page. Actually, you're already here. Not much is on it, but there's a few games, tunes, toys and shit. I'll be fixing it up little by little.
Never heard back from Limp Bizkit or that other dude. So, Feeding Frenzy is still on the shelf.
I'm outta the running for the 2006 Fade In Awards, but hey, I sure as shit got farther than I ever thought I would.
The Gibbon project is comin' along a bit slow. A lot of The Gibbon was initially designed to be black and white, but the color just makes it look like I Ted Turnered Casablanca. So, I'm having to re-do some of the art to make it more color-friendly instead of just black and a few flecks of color.
Oh, did a new design for that James Gunn character. You can score some of this stuff and more at the JGAS Store. All proceeds go to Rover Rescue and James will match every dollar. At least that's what he said.
Anyway, later, folks. I'm hungry.
EXT. TREEHOUSE - DAY
A straggly, old mutt chases ECKS (10, male) and JAC (10,
female) up into their treehouse. The dog BARKS and SNARLS
daring them to come down.
JAC
We're trapped up here now?
ECKS
He doesn't hang around for long.
INT. TREEHOUSE H.Q. - NIGHT
They both look down in the dark pit of night seeing the dog's
eyes staring back at them.
Jac scowls at him as he CLEARS his throat looking over at Old
Man Jeckle's backyard.
ECKS
I can climb out to that branch that
hangs over Old Man Jeckle's
backyard, snatch an apple and
distract the dog.
JAC
You mean with Scratch in the
backyard?
In the backyard looms a creepy-looking scarecrow they call
Scratch.
ECKS
Psh. That's just an urban legend.
JAC
That's just the kinda talk that
gets people in trouble.
But Ecks is spooked.
EXT. TREE
Ecks climbs along the branch that arches to the ground the
farther he goes out. The dog jumps and SNAPS at him seeing
the branch is too short.
EXT. OLD MAN JECKLE'S BACKYARD
Ecks makes a flying leap over the fence as the dog SCRAPES at
the wooden fence. Ecks looks back at a knothole in the fence
seeing the evil dog staring back at him.
Ecks runs across the yard, then drops to low-crawl under a
window that shows OLD MAN JECKLE's flickering silhouette
watching TV.
Ecks looks back, as the dog's snout nuzzles its way under the
fence.
INT. TREEHOUSE
Jac sees the dog preoccupied with the fence that she climbs
down.
EXT. OLD MAN JECKLE'S BACKYARD
The dog crawls under the fence chasing Ecks across the yard.
Ecks finds refuge on Scratch's crucifix. The crucifix
trembles as Ecks hugs Scratch. Ecks is spooked. Ecks tries
to push away from Scratch as the post gets top heavy and
leans toward the dog.
Ecks reaches for a ripe apple hanging off the tree that's
just out of reach. The post starts to lean getting him
closer to the apple, but budges it just enough that the apple
falls into his sleeve, rolls out the bottom of his shirt and
disappears somewhere on the lawn.
The post inches toward the dog as Ecks is forced to hug
Scratch to keep the dog from getting him. But the dog
WHIMPERS and backs away.
Ecks sees the dog is spooked too. Ecks crawls down and holds
up his hands.
ECKS
Hey, you go your way and I'll go
mine, pooch. Call it square.
The dog scurries off as the scarecrow tackles Ecks. Ecks
SCREAMS and wrestles his way out of Scratch's garb. He
notices the post just came loose.
That's when Jac arrives and SPOOKS him holding up an apple.
JAC
Hey, I got an apple. You like
apples, right?
He looks at her for a moment.
JAC (CONT'D)
While you were busy with the dog I
hopped outta the tree.
Ecks picks up the scarecrow post and sloppily stands it back
up.
ECKS
Don't eat the apple.
JAC
Why? It's already picked.
ECKS
We don't need it now. Just leave
it here.
JAC
Is this one of your arbitrary
morality moods?
Ecks storms off as it starts to rain.
INT. JAC'S ROOM - NIGHT
Rain BEATS against Jac's bedroom window when she shoots up
out of her sleep seeing Scratch's silhouette creeping past
the window, but it could be the tree outside. The apple sits
on her nightstand.
The front door CREAKS open making her cringe. HEAVY
FOOTSTEPS come towards her room. She crawls under her bed as
the door opens -- lightning CRASHES. Shadows dance all over
the room. Jac shuts her eyes tight. She cracks one eye open
as the lightning settles. All clear. She takes a breath.
She crawls back into bed seeing the apple missing and wet
footsteps leading out of the room. LIGHTNING CRASHES.
She stares out her window seeing Scratch missing from his
post.
INT. ECKS' ROOM - NIGHT
Ecks is asleep as Scratch leaves the apple on his nightstand.
