OH, i forgot to tell you. when i was in san francisco in sept of 2005 (due to inclement weather in nola) went to city lights bookstore. Reading w/o glasses (which are for seeing far aways) I spotted a short man walk by. Still w/o glasses i saw a rhea perlman type woman walk by. put my glasses back on. wanted a picture of the two of them. so i politely axed. it was just the three of us in the basement part of the store, thought maybe they would just turn and smile and i could snap a quick one on my disposable camera. "no" she said. oh, alright, i walked away w/o another word. 15 minutes later rhea had gone away to the upstairs part of the store. Mr. DeVito was asking a ladie shopkeep about books on lucid dreaming. As he walked by me, he said, "you still want that picture?" He says to the shopkeep, "do you mind?". so i hand her my trash cam and we pose and she snaps.
At that point i did not think it appropriate to say, "i don't want a picture With you, I Wanted to take a picture of you w/ Rhea. I happen to love them together.
i just took this off of nndb.com;
Working in summer stock in Connecticut, he met and befriended the young Michael Douglas. DeVito was soon subletting Douglas's Manhattan apartment, and when he met another aspiring actress named Rhea Perlman, she moved in two weeks later.
they been together since somewhere in the 70's and got married in 82. and are still together! so that's cool, right? not normal.
anywho. tripping is a word associated with doing hallucinationary type drugs. it also applies to actually going on Trips. I had driven to NYC whilst the city i lived in was sinking. Drove to cape cod, drove to central mass, back to NYC. went to Newark NJ and then flew to san francisco. lots of ghosts in san francisco. that whole town feels like an exgirlfriend to me now. anyway the safety of city lights bookstore. and there is DeVito, he rocks! look it up, he has been involved w/ some kick ass movies. jersy films baby! so even though i was tripping w/ bad hair, i Had to do the photo. so that happened.
