What took you so long to get here?
Where have you been all my life?
I’ll tell you where I’ve been.  

I’ve been in show business!

Ever since I was a little kid and heard Pinocchio singing, “Hey, diddly-dee, an actor’s life for me,” that’s what I wanted. Well, not to be an actor. 
I got tired of that during my freshman year in college.

So, what to do, what to do. . .

After many years as a Hollywood press agent, I became a writer…movies, stage plays, books.  
Anything that was a challenge.  I love telling stories.

After all, with due respect to actors, directors and other artists, isn’t the only truly creative aspect of the performing arts the written word?     
Everything else is “interpretation”.

On this site you will find links to my many stage plays that are available for licensing, listings of my books that are available for purchasing, some of my screenplays that are available for optioning, plus my blog that will keep you apprised of my various on-going activities and we can get to know each other, maybe too well.

If you’re into DVDs, take a look at my monthly newsletter, BEST BETS ON DVD.

Also, if you have a story that you want told, either in screenplay or book form, I am still a writer-for-hire.  Have Mac-Will Write.

So, please sign the guest book and share your thoughts and comments on my blog.  But, let’s play nice!

Don’t be such a stranger.  Keep coming back!

Happy Thanksgiving!

by Michael B. Druxman on 11/20/11

November 21, 2011

This is Thanksgiving week.  People are traveling and/or preparing for their holiday feasts.

So, rather than post stuff that people are not likely to read this week, I'm going to take a vacation, too.  I'll be back next Monday (28).

In the meantime, here are a couple of funny things that I was sent.

An Irishman was terribly overweight, so his doctor put him on a diet.  "I want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, then eat regularly again for 2 days then skip a day.  Repeat this procedure for 2 weeks.  The next time I see you, you should have lost at least 5 pounds."

When the Irishman returned, he shocked the doctor by having lost nearly 60lbs.
 
"Why, that's amazing," the doctor said, "Did you follow my instructions?"

The Irishman nodded. "I'll tell you though, by jaesuz,  I t'aut I were going to drop dead on dat 3rd day."
 

"From the hunger, you mean?" asked the doctor.
 
"No, from the skipping."

 
************

A very tired nurse walks into a bank, totally exhausted after an 18-hour shift.

Preparing to write a check, she pulls a rectal thermometer out of her purse and tries to write with it.

When she realizes her mistake, she looks at the flabbergasted teller, and without missing a beat, she says: "Well, that's great....that's just great.  Some asshole's got my pen!"

You have a creative week.  I will see you next Monday.
