Try To Focus On The Blurry Line Of The Eyechart
Monk/Steinhoff Videoclip, 9.25.09
We all know there are times in life when, for specific reasons, the weekly Monk/Steinhoff videoclip must be seen in an expanded context (see "Monk Uncastles" on YouTube). And as was illustrated thru my 8-8-09 Monk/Steinhoff videoclip, and also in my 6-28-09 and 8-22-09 blogs, this can include other shows "joining in". Thus, the expanded context of the weekly Monk/Steinhoff videoclip can include immediately previous Monk episodes, as well as other shows airing the same night:
Though there may seem to be a wider assortment of sources than usual for this week's Monk/Steinhoff videoclip, expanding the context was not of my choosing, but was essentially handed to me through what occurred. Furthermore, all shows (and most people) involved have referred to me/my material numerous times before (additionally, Bruce Willis is discussed in my 3/31/09 blog when the subject was a possible terrorist clue playing off of something Willis). Prior to Smallville's move this season to Friday, the same night as Monk, it used to be on Thursday nights at the same time as a show I created, My Name Is Earl. I then would occasionally find on both shows references to the same moment contained in my material, simultaneously included on the same night.
In this weekly Monk/Steinhoff videoclip I also put forward the belief that there was a very short interval between when I blogged something and when it surfaced in a show, and on this subject I would wish to say one or two things. At one time it was only the show Smallville that ever caused me to surmise so short an interval between my "cause" and a show's "effect" (not counting Saturday Night LIVE, which is in their element when they draw upon something brand new regarding me/my material). In the instance regarding Smallville doing this, they were responding to the Iranian president's backdrop drawing from something regarding me/my material. I should therefore point out that this week's Monk/Steinhoff videoclip generally has a lot to do with Monk in relation to Smallville in relation to me/my material. My specific reference to a fast "turnaround time" reflected in this Monk/Steinhoff videoclip has to do with my 9/13/09 blog, which is all about a potentially major clue regarding 9/11/01. I had hoped to someday present the clue more secretly to a government agency, but before they would take it seriously, it would require their believing that I would show up on major terrorists' radar as someone extremely VIP, motivating the terrorists to leave the clue "on my doorstep". And so in the absence of a proper opportunity to handle this clue with the secrecy it may warrant, I released the clue to the world so that someone might do something (I deserve high praise just for not screaming about this sort of stuff, considering the earth-devastating possibilities - I would scream if I thought it wouldn't destroy all chances of being taken seriously). Was the potential clue powerful enough to cause Monk to dispense with normal product-to-market timeframes? As to the 9/25/09 Monk's reference to my 9/22 wastebasket blog, that would scarcely seem to require great expertise in the art of acting on short notice, at least to those of us who are familiar with how fast an idea can come, and the mechanics of actualizing an idea of that variety.
Monk/Beatles Videoclip (without The Beatles)
My September 20th blog referred to some Monk stuff from September 11th and the immediately previous show to that, August 28th, that put together a reference to a specific scene from the Beatles movie, "Help!" in relation to a reference to my comedy sketch idea, "Teddy Tinyfingers". This time around I bring a more complete picture:
For those who have heard of The Beatles, to the point of actually going to see one their movies, the reference is less obscure than it otherwise would be.
Seeing Is Worth Considering Believing
And finally, was that Courteney Cox Arquette I saw while driving to work on Friday, September 25th, the day that Medium, the show of Patricia Arquette, Courteney's sister-in-law, had its season premiere? And was that Robbie Cavolina I saw while driving home from work on Friday, September 25th, star of my 1998 Gosk 2 video, who once introduced me to the assistant to David Arquette, Courteney's husband? And who once was going to star Rosanna Arquette (McCartney friend) in a movie about Anita O'Day but made an Anita O'Day documentary instead? I don't know, it was difficult to tell, I was driving. Yet in each instance I first thought that it was them who I was seeing, and only afterward did I see the connection. And for that reason alone I consider it more worth mentioning than not mentioning.
