I didn't know who your dad was. I didn't ask who your dad was. I had absolutely no way (or need) to discover who your dad was. You volunteered that information, in a conversation where you sent hugs, and then befriended me on GoodReads, and clicked a bunch of likes on my stuff, and honestly, I am "shocked," too. I mentioned that it was your uncle, because you'd left a comment on the youtube clip. I had no idea it was sensitive information, because I found it in a youtube comment. Again, I apologize for hurting your feelings. If you'd like me to remove the link to your blog, I will.

Thanks for posting my comment. I was actually quite shocked at what you did? But I’m over it. I wish I’d had a regular Dad. Most of my friends had coaches for dads when I was growing up. You know, dads that you could do Father’s Day for, or Dads that were going to walk you down an aisle and give you away or?

I never thought I’d write in “his” genre — but, I write “cure” — must be all those years of therapy he caused.

xxoo!

This got caught in my spam catcher, because of all the links in the comment.

I am sorry that I upset you. I saw that you’d posted on the preview for the YouTube clip, and figured I would mention it, since we sometimes tweeted.

Omg. Well, this is the first time I have actually “seen” it? Not kidding. I think in the late 60′s my Uncle Spence Crilly followed in my Dad Don Brown’s footsteps, for the $$$. These are like Stag films made at the very end of his life? I never saw these — like I never saw Dad’s, but — like I said, this is what my uncle Spence did first. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1314&dat=19680919&id=F7dWAAAAIBAJ&sjid=bekDAAAAIBAJ&pg=2193,935785 He started in Hollywood as a magician in deep childhood up at the Magic Castle. Then he went on as the newspaper article says. He was making films in my childhood all over the world that were documentaries of other countries and he had a film company up in Canada. When he died in Hollywood in 1977, I lost the best ever person in my life.

As I think about it now, and my mother? Because my father figure, Don Brown aka Bob Vosse — (see Boogie Nights — Burt Reynolds character) well?

My mother left him when I was 13 because of what he was doing. All I ever wanted was to be Brady Bunch, but oh well. It never happened.

It was so hard having to grow up without my uncle Spence. He was the closest thing to a father I ever had. Got a story for you on all that. Over at CS. Nineteen.

My uncle was a good man. My father, not so much.

I guess I take after him though a little — he was a writer? Maybe I’ll blog about all this now that you have opened this up. They are all long gone now.
