P.S. I used a program to convert this capsule into a file you guys could use and see, but that program left a watermark on the bottom right-hand corner. Hope u don't mind!

Nobody - A film about a guy who lives along the Mississppi River

 

Today on the Dr Phil show I watch this

Jerry has been out of his daughter, Kayla's, life for 17 years — by choice. He went on the run, avoided paying child support, and now lives as a hobo floating down the Mississippi River on a raft. Kayla had no contact with Jerry until a couple of filmmakers decided to make a documentary about his life. The film is called Nobody, and Kayla says it actually glorifies her deadbeat dad.

To hear more about this Mississippi River Hobo Daddy click on the linck below..

 

nobody

PS.. he had to smoke 20,000 cigarettes to get this raft..which he repairs with duct tape

This American Life Episode

Dear Blogger

Your friend Robert Graef has sent you the following episode of This American Life, from Chicago Public Radio:

Title: Accidental Documentaries

Link: http://www.ThisAmericanLife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?episode=14

With the following message:

Going thru old memories is not an easy task.. no matter where they are found.. What unites these memories on the surface is that they're all made from old video tapes, music recordings found in attics, storage units and thrift stores. What unites them under that surface—and not far under it—is that they all end up being memories and the memories that friends leave

Oh, memories I have found in these storage units

from the laptop of My Name is Bob

Thanks, and enjoy!

Poem from Marrianne

The snail at the edge of the road

inches forward, a trim gray finger

of a fellow in pinstripe suit.

He's burdened by his house

that has to follow

where he goes. Every inch,

he pulls together

all he is,

all he owns,

all he was given.

The road is wide'

but he is called

by something

that knows him

on the other side.

Re: Pictures

Thanks Ryan for the e-mail ..

Glad you are able to get such great pictures

and put them on a blog for all of us to see..

Enjoy the rest of your vacation
