And Now a Word From Our Sponsor...

Good evening.

My name is Rene' Guerrero.

I know you're probably wondering a myriad of things at this point... That is, of course, taking for granted that, if you are indeed reading these words, you have an interest, however vested it may or may not be, in the views expressed here by the man known as Johnny Cordova.

Where has he been? Why haven't we heard from him? And who, pardon my French, the fuck, are you? I assure you in the next few moments I will answer any and all of theses questions to the best of my humble ability.

Let me say first that Mr. Cordova, though slightly worn and damaged, is still here in his hometown of Southern Babylon (affectionately known as Dallas, Texas) and is, in his own inimitable way, in fine spirits. He has chosen to take this holiest of seasons to hibernate and strengthen himself for the onslaught of 2011. Which we all know will be a world-wide reenactment of the film Battle for the Planet of the Apes. Get your federation-issued costumes soon.

Secondly, he stopped contributing to this humble platform in the wake of a most devastating loss. A beloved family member was taken from this world by lung cancer and it almost torn his soul apart. It is a horrible thing to see a demon cry. And though I somewhat jest when I refer to Mr. Cordova in such a way, he would admit, perhaps even relish the thought, of playing the role of tormentor to a society that chooses vanity over sanity. Fear not, though this platform for views and opinions, Casanova Shrugged, may change  in some superficial ways, I assure you it will remain a beacon in the light  of darkness; cultural, moral, political, and social.

Thirdly, I, Rene' Guerrero, am the creator of all things Cordovan. Johnny and I had a long talk over the last few months and we decided it was in our best collective interest to incorporate our efforts and jointly utilize this forum to honor the homeland, so to speak. The homeland being our realities, collective and individual as they may or may not be.

In the 14 months since this blog was last updated, while Johnny slept the sleep of the dead, I personally wrote a 477-page, 104, 563-word historical paranormal thriller entitled White Rock that was completed on December 16 this year, 2010. It is the adaptation to screenplay I wrote two years ago when both Johnny and I found ourselves ousted from the evil Media Empire and left to survive by our wits. You will hear more about this project as the months progress. The rebellion will not fail.

Also, we will start the process of getting our legal paperwork in place, creating an LLC to produce this as a feature film in the next 24 months.

It's an exciting year of growth here at Casanova Shrugged. I thank you all for your patronage and will do all in my power as CEO to make sure you don't go without the Cordova Edge for so long again.

Thanks for your attention.

Let the games...


begin...
