I Finally Feel Like an Adult

After approximately six months without flossing I have flossed six out of the last seven days.

New York Doll

Last weekend I went and saw a great movie with my wife. It was one of the best movies that I have seen for a while. It was a documentary about Arthur "Killer" Kane of the New York Dolls. The documentary was screened at the Sundance Film Festival and this week it is playing at the Broadway Theater in Salt Lake City. I understand that it is beginning a wider distribution this week. I would highly recommend it.

On Friday the films director, Greg Whiteley, was at the Broadway to answer questions after each showing. I always enjoy that. There is one part in the movie where the lead singer of the New York Dolls, David Johansen, and Killer were talking about the ten commandments and David says that he is in good shape because he keeps all but one of them and he is working on that one. In the Q&A session after the movie Greg said that for a long time David wanted to see a cut of the film. Finally when he saw it he said that he just wanted Greg to change one thing. He wanted Greg to make him seem like less of an asshole. Greg said that there were three scenes that really made the movie and they all involved David being an asshole. One of them was the commandments scene. In the cut that David saw originally David went on to say the commandment that he doesn't keep. David said that it would be better if that were left out because people would think that it was murder.
