Did you ever see Kurt and Courtney? It's a rotten movie, but worth watching just for some of the freaks they interview, like Courtney Love's scary father and the infamous El Duce of the Mentors. El Duce was funny as hell. Too bad he got hit by a train. (Check out that last link; I particularly like the sentence that reads, "His death was the result of being hit by a train in a state of alcoholic intoxication.")

I have an El Duce story

Actually I have two but I will only tell one now. The whole way he got sucked into the Cobain thing was that he and the Reverend Bud Green, an LA pot activist guy, used to sell outlandish stories to the tabloids for money -- and that's one they sold that got out of hand, from what I understand.

Reverend Green was one of the first people I met when I moved to LA. He invited me to "worship with him" behind Raji's. I declined.

That's great! Hehehe -- it only took me about twenty minutes to figure out the significance of "Bud Green." ;)

I wonder if the tabloids would buy any of my outlandish stories...
