In case anyone wanted the transcript of the closing remarks made by me during Protocon 2.0, I have posted them here. Thanks to those that attended, if we continue to have such a huge turnout, we will need to find a bigger venue next year!

Interview with the CP kid

April 17th, 2006 @ 3:20 pm by Thom

I was interviewed today for a young lady’s research paper. Thought I’d share with you my responses; knowledge is power.


[Mr. Webb sic] When I looked at your profile on www.thecpgroup.org I was unsure of your connection to cerebral palsy. Do you have CP or do you work with individuals that have CP? In any case, I compiled a couple lists of questions so you can answer those which are appropriate:

I have cerebral palsy and I work with folks with a wide spectrum of disabilities, including CP. My CP is mild compared to most, I walk with two canes for balance and have limited range of motion in my hips, legs, and feet. My speech, vision, and hearing is not effected. My cognitive ability, although some may beg to differ, is unaffected.

If Ever I Had

April 11th, 2006 @ 8:53 pm by Thom

What is this I hear going on about me?
Needing to conceal that I had little hope 
Perhaps I was worried about what wouldn’t be
Unsure if these feelings will ever know it’s not a joke

I pen this looking from the outside in Delighted in revealing that thoughts can evolve Calm shadows cast by generations of souls within They would never have sought my help to solve

Outcomes, solutions, conclusions, the end Later we will discover the epilogue’s brightness Now we must adapt and bend and avoid the trends Knowing that eternity will demonstrate her genius

Casting and Crew Call -Independent Film

January 31st, 2006 @ 9:03 pm by Thom

From the Director-

We are shooting a short independent film entitled “The Green Machine.” The film is narrative-driven and will be in the style of a children’s live-action television show. Similar shows include any of the Sid and Marty Krofft television shows (”Land of the Lost,” “Electra Woman and Dyna Girl,” “Sigmund and the Sea Monsters,” “Bugaloos,” “Far Out Space Nuts,” etc.) and “Dr. Who.”

The film will be shot on location at Camp Fairlee Manor in Chestertown, MD from March 17th-19th, 2006. While we cannot pay actors or crew, we can provide them with comfortable sleeping accommodations and meals.

Currently we are looking to cast 3 parts:

  1. a male lead,
  2. a female lead, and
  3. a male or female supporting character.

Because of our tight pre-production schedule, we would like to hold auditions for the roles as soon as possible, either this weekend (February 4th and 5th) or next (February 11th and 12th).

Any interested parties should feel free to leave a comment if interested.

Hoe I lang voor de dag dat mijn lippen deze prachtige geest kunnen opnieuw raken. Vind me en koop me voor Thom en hij zal u dubbel betalen wat u betaalde. Chestertown en de andere steden op de oostelijke kust van Maryland dragen dit niet, alstublieft me helpen dit vinden. -Thom

A “short” Poem

May 4th, 2005 @ 12:11 pm by Thom

I have a thing for Achondroplasic dwarfs
Not Geleophysic, Pseudoachondroplasic, or hypochondroplasic dwarfs
The other two hundred varieties of dwarf
apologies for not adoring, admiring, and appreciating your unique morphs

I’ll buy you a chicken coop to live-in a hot-plate, stool, and wobbly table to get your knit on Fully featured with adequately short linens I see you cookin egg, tomato and mushroom with onions

Follow the yellow brick road Wearing your shinny new specs and capris Down to my house with the little commode Don’t get lost among the assorted spectrum of leaves
