I know, I know.  Three posts in a week.  You’re probably thinking: “What gives?  Why the sudden burst of activity?”

Well, I’m entering a contract year with LoveHKFilm so I’ve shot myself up full of steroids and HGH in the hope of raising my performance to the point where I can get some fool (I’m looking at you, owners of the Kozo Entertainment Group) to sign an aging veteran like me to a multi-year, multi-million dollar contract.

OK, OK.  The truth is I’m trying to give up laziness for Lent this year.  I know that upping my activity here on the blog for Lent goes in direct contradiction with church leaders urging the flock to eschew technology during the Lenten season but, hey, you gotta do what ya gotta do.

I can’t say if I’ll be posting news links on a regular basis.  Let’s just enjoy today and let tomorrow take care of tomorrow.  However, I will be back next week to add my noise to the ongoing Sexy Photos Gate cacophony.
