From the third-floor deck of Shutters in Santa Monica -- Sunday, 6.24.07, 4:50 pm - where I went to chat with director-writer Jim Toback, who's working in Culver City on a documentary about Mike Tyson.

Jeff,

Before I saw the caption, I thought this was a 30-year-old shot, or more. That hair, and the white swimsuit. Ahh, the Midwest can be painfully far away, sometimes.

Who is this? Could it be Blanchard Ryan, that Open Water babe who Jeff had a not-so-secret crush on a few summers ago?

Betcha 10-to-1 the chick's with Toback. For a bald fat guy, the dude is one smooth talkin' player. He should make a movie about that.

I wonder if she noticed the lecherous old weirdo behind her sneaking a picture on his camera phone

can I get a fill-flash? Throw some light on that rump, Jeff! Your composition is good, as usual, but you could stand to bone up on your lighting, brother. These drab photos are very verite, but we demand more, especially with top tier tail!

That shot of the hot blonde in the white bikini (she was actually a bit sour and snippy looking -- a member of the Paris Hilton school of 21st Century feminine charm) was beautiful dumb luck. I think it's almost like a scene from an Eric Rohmer film. I was questioned by an older woman after I took the shots. "Did you take a picture of the woman by the fireplace?" she asked. Huh? What fireplace? I said. Oh, no...I just took a shot of the view, I told her, indicating the view of the beach and the sea. I didn't mention that the view included the blonde. In any event, the older woman seemed to feel that it was just a wee bit invasive of me to snap a shot of the beach with someone she knew standing within the frame. My first thought was, "She's kidding, right?" Then I took the longer view. The Middle-Eastern and African view is that you're stealing a little piece of someone's soul if you take their picture. My view is that of any photographer with any pride or passion, which is that I'll ask permission in order to take a shot of someone facing me and standing close by, but it's okay to just snap away in an open-air situation in which a subject's face is turned away from the camera. Them's the rules.

What's Toback now, about 80? If he can still get a hot piece of 49-year-old ass like that, well, god bless the bastard. I'd still like to see him in a "three-some" Jello-wrestling match with Milius and Colleen Camp.

Wells to Money: The bikini blonde with the pissy expression was maybe 24 or 25, if that. She might have been a tad younger.

Joshua Mooney says ...

Well, Jeff, that may certainly be the case, but I suggest she commence major rehabilitation post-haste, as I can see the lack of firmness even from this great distance, and it's something my own wife, some two years her senior, does not suffer from: buttocks, thighs, back-fat. For starters. One can only imagine the full frontal. Even from the back she looks already dead. By the way, my name's "Massey," not "Money." I mean "Mooney."

Wells to Malibugigolo: learn that mental rigor and grammatical clarity are disciplines worth exploring, and you will find a better kind of bliss that the kind you get from being a casual dignifier.

T. S. Idiot says ...

Daily I see several women under thirty exposing their midriffs (midrives?) and am shocked, shocked at the number with what Joshua Mooney so eloquently refers to as "back-fat." While the rest of their visible flesh seems pert, even taut, the kidney region is bloated. Then I have seen overweight women without this flab in the same area. Any explanations?
