I do a monthly classic film screening her eat work that has a lot of older people on the mailing list. One of the regulars is a man named George Crittenden, a true movie fanatic, he worked at another local theater and knew everything and everyone. Every month he would show up with extra trivia for me about whatever movie I was showing and would entertain me and the security guard at the back of the theater with stories and jokes.

I just found out he died in June at 80 yrs old. I would have sworn he wasn't a day over 70 with the level of energy he had and that big grin.

Our screenings are not the same without him and his laugh. I am making this post public, because he is someone who should be remembered even by folks who never met him.

Snippets found with google:

"George Crittenden, a 78-year-old projectionist who began working at the Alex as an usher in 1944, charmed them with his memories of Ginger Rogers being whisked out of the theater by bodyguards."

"It is with great sadness we report that founding Board member and our long time projectionist, George Crittenden, passed away on June 4, 2008 after a short illness. George was instrumental in the success of the Film Society and, as our patrons can attest, was a master at projection. His tender treatment of archive 35mm prints enabled AFS to enjoy wide access to studio and collector vaults."

I got a spot in the etsy main showcase tomorrow. This gets me nervous about an influx of peoples. Below you can see the top stuff in my shop. Is it the best stuff? should I change the order around? (if something sells, the next one goes up on the showcase page)

I'm trying to dump a bunch of older stuff I made for cheap, just to gain my sanity :D Keep checking back to see what I get around to photographing... The fountain in my courtyard is currently the photo spot of choice :D

i like using the dark background... I took the new ones last night while people weren't buying anything. Apparently setting sun + my tablecloth work pretty well. Still not all I want, but not too bad.
