jktNow who is going to join us?
Bo Derek has a ranch in Ojai and is a friend and fan of Ray...who knows who'll be there? Malcolm McDowell also is her neighbor and he's doing the narration. We'll be doing brunch, Doug Spaulding has kindly given us many choices, then it will be off to the 2:00 p.m. performance.
Come and join us.

Perhaps that's why you often go by 'John King'?

Well, actually Bo lives in Santa Ynez (a good word!), not far from the Michael Jackson ranch, but Malcolm does, indeed, live in Ojai. I wonder if he'd be keen on doing any narration for me - I have a Bradbury-themed documentary mostly shot and may need a narrator. In fact, I'm working today on laying down ideas and starting edits. But can I afford him?!
Did you invite Bo? Would you like me to do so? You know, I have somewhat of a history with her (I once had a photo taken with her at one of Ray's birthday parties.

)
I shall join the convoy, or, as Van Morrison would say, caravan!

I stand corrected. In the immortal words of David Letterman, "Oprah Uma, Uma Oprah."

I already told you I would bring the good camera!

I don't know about Saturday - I'll be busy filming
and dealing with the A/V to show a clip for Chris. I hope.
