Jim Kelly Sketch
Dec 13th
A year or so ago, I came across an eBay auction for black-and-white 8×10 photo of an “unknown Blaxploitation actor”. I recognized the person immediately as Jim Kelly, the martial arts star who appeared in Bruce Lee’s Enter the Dragon, as well as Black Belt Jones and Three the Hard Way. The photo, which I won for a buck or two, turned out to be an original promotional still for the 1974 AIP film Golden Needles, also starring Joe Don Baker. In October, 2010, I had the pleasure of meeting Jim Kelly at a convention outside New York City, where he signed the original still for me.
Cool As Ice: The CrackerHammer Review
Dec 4th
Okay, I’ll admit to owning a CD copy of Vanilla Ice’s album To the Extreme – I’ve had it since high school. It collects dust in my CD collection in between MC Hammer and Gorky Park. But until this morning, It’s not that I’m much of a fan, but “Ice Ice Baby” is just one of those pop culture moments that can’t be forgotten, even though it probably should be.

Email newsletters to your clients, customers or contact list can be a great way to encourage repeat visits to your website, promote your services and make new sales. In my email newsletter campaigns for my clients, I’ve managed to obtain open rates as high as 72% – that’s more than three times the industry average!
