BROWN PAPER BAG

Image
At the top of this brown bag, useful for writing paper when there was nothing else available, across a flap folded down about an inch, appears what looks like some kind of outline, with numbered points: 1 ) a 'statement' about the QUALITY of the contrasted experiences 2 ) SCIENCE is a sterile approach to evaluating thought-experience 3 ) the 'mask' is the reason for the Black & White quality of Dorothy's Kansas 'life' which moves on to 'unmasked' delirium 4 ) MIND is both 'spiritual' & shared 5 ) JUL  16  - A young Judy Garland recorded a version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" during the production of a spectacular feature film based on one of Baum's books; it's about a place...  a special place where we all would very much like to go; the word  "Somewhere" implies that there is no map to guide us; no one  set of instructions for how  to get there. - Those opening scenes, where we first meet a

OUTLINE  for  CHAPTER  VII Illustration:print media ad for 1953 Ford p/u w/white walls; all happy onlookers growing sadder ( use digital effects ) and then fading until the town is dusty and deserted just like in “The Last Picture Show” SCENE  ONE JAKE’s truck roars to life on his second try, and as the jail facility grows ever smaller in his back glass, strains of ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT’s big hit “Mr. Wendall” escape from his ‘popping’ AM-radio. SCENE  TWO Instead of confinement in that tiny cell, JAKE sped past all his usual ‘haunts’ which are now ‘old waste places (Isaiah 58:12 ) ;’ he realizes that he is searching for old friends, but none can be found. Note:the next three scenes are in reverse order chronologically (perhaps provide date/time so reader will not be so confused) ,  ...but the narrative plods straight forward as if ‘normal time’ is just an unnecessary ‘confusion’ SCENE  THREE JAKE finds out, through an intermediary that is hollering through o
