What Inspired You Today ?
Guerrilla Fighters of Kurdistan from Joey L on Vimeo.
This video kept me up last night, it was the last thing I heard or thought of as near the end I slipped off into a peaceful sleep, fresh ideas in mind of what my next project might bring me.
Today I found a videographer named Joey L., from Brooklyn New York, who from the looks of his portfolio has quite a bit of exposure in the National Geographic as well as historical documentaries under his belt. He's freelanced for the best and looks to be quite young and very talented. I was taken aback by his ability to be a one man show, performing the tasks of what Hollywood uses dozens in order to achieve. While some of his work isn't polished to a shine like you were watching PBSs "Frontline ©", I think it's what I like about his work. If you have 30 minutes or so, I found this on Vimeo, a subscriber produced website where amature video photographers as well as some professionals pay to post their private collections. They are often some of the best as they had a lot of love put into them.

Creepy Memories
It was late in the year of 2012 when I remember a very large number of Port Aransas police officers gathered together by the former location of Neptune's Restaurant on Texas State 361 also known locally as "Alister Avenue." The moan of ambulance sirens quickly followed the humid night followed yet again by what can be described by the unseeing eye as a dozen cruisers landing in town from multiple government, state and local emergency teams. This turns out was one of the most horrific local events to happen in the recent past, an event that might even stir a larger cities envy.
I wonder, what really happened that night, in the front parking lot that sent a man staggering back into the bar, blood gushing from his neck, in shock, gasping for his life and in front of the crowd, the former handsome young man, crumpled to the floor.
A Convicted Murderer Makes a Last Statement before Trial
It didn't take long before I found the Facebook page of the now convicted murder the state says is responsible for taking this young mans life. Captured according to local newspapers several blocks from the scene of the crime, in his hotel room by local storm troopers. Not one of the last entries into his Facebook page, making reference to what would turn out to be his perhaps final entry before becoming an ass clown in the Texas penal system.
Article, South Jetty Local Paper
Seems like a quite little town got a manslaughter conviction for Mr Eyeman, as it turns out, in a future followup this is not the first and certainly not the last story of Murder and Mayhem on Mustang Island.
