movie page top ten:
jakes list

Normally as a writer myself I tend to avoid
other writers. Its a long story. They became
writers for a reason and the reason is: they
dont shine in a face to face situation. They
communicate better alone.

But Jake is the exception. I like him for one
thing because when talking to him I get the
feeling he is listening. Im not addressing
myself to outer space.  Also: he returns phone
calls. Why people dont return phone calls—or
in this era the email—remains a mystery.  But
Jake returns calls, also the email and, in the
miscellaneous category—you can put the arm
on him for a short term loan.

Finally--if you operate a website that from
time to time requires co-operation on the part
of a friend, such as submission of a favorite
movie list to the top ten movie page—he is
happy to help out there as well.

Hes my man!
