What happens when a 35-year experience designer goes to Disney? I was born in New Jersey. In a little town outside of Newark called Hillside. Population who cares. 20 minutes to NYC at 3:00 AM. Two hours at 9:00 AM. But my biological father had his third heart attack or something and the genius doctor gave my dad a prescription: Florida. “Move to Florida, you’ll be right as rain. It’s the cold weather that’s ailing you.” What was ailing my father was two packs of Kools a day, a diet of shit and the s ...Continue Reading

So there is an election in 95 days. There is a guy running for president in that election. I want him to lose. His name is Scott Weiner. I detest him. He makes me mad. You detest him as well. He is a state senator now. There is a person running against him. She can’t win. Pelosi is going to retire in 2022. Weiner will win her seat. He will then run for Govenor. Then for president. Maybe. Who knows. But she can’t win. Right? Every story is a story of a person of power who underestimated their ...Continue Reading

Sxip Shirey is at it again. His brilliant producing and composing is bringing forth a new album entitled Goodnight Little Machines. Only this time, his new project also includes visual art, animation and film by artists such as Shaun Tan, Coco Karol, Funquest and many more - all inspired by Shirey's music itself. But this can't be done without the help of you. The Indiegogo for the new album closes TODAY and we think it's absolutely worthy of supporting. So go take a look, poke around his web ...Continue Reading

Why you should vote for Gavin Newsom for Governor of California 2018 You should vote for Captain Hair Product for Governor because I have footage of him running away from a singing telegram I sent him. If he wins the Governorship, he’ll run for president. And he could win. Then, I would have footage of the President of the United States of America running away from a singing telegram. And that’s the world I want to live in. Thank you for listening chickenjohn ...Continue Reading

She will make a bunch of Trump drama help to further incite the civil war that is coming to this country. Give th ...Continue Reading
This mailing list is announce-only.
This email list is that of Showman Chicken John Rinaldi of San Francisco. You can keep up with his shenanigans and opinions by being on this list. If you would like to be included in a list to announce shows, that would be on the SFIOP.org site. This is for personal writing and such. He posts a few times a week at most. You sound much more important when you speak about yourself in the 3rd person. At least I do when I talk about me as 'him'.
Your email will be used for this list and this list only. I will not subscribe you to another list or sell your email address to get money for blow. I wouldn't do it I swear.
