“I am not afraid of monsters. In fact, I crave their presence in my life. I have long been drawn to the notion of the chimera,” Connolly said. “To me, assuming the character of that female mythological beast is a thrilling way to access my creative center. It’s not about harboring illusory dreams that are impossible to achieve. I’m all about achieving something beautiful and satisfying. As my own form of chimera, I growl and growl, wrestle with other kinds of monsters — the distracting, naysaying kind — until I win.”

Some of you may already be familiar with the life and times of Joseph "Bum" Farto, but I was only made aware of him and his Hall of Fame-worthy Wikipedia page within the last couple of days.
How in the hell did Andy Garcia not gun for an Oscar by playing this dude in a biopic at some point? Oh well, I guess it's Oscar Isaac's turn now.

#aFactADay2024
#1315: Bum Farto put out a lot of fires in the island city of Key West. suspicions say he started quite a few too. the fire chief of the town was a guy called Joseph "Bum" Farto - he wore a red suit, smoked a huge cigar and drove a lime-yellow Ford. arson and drug dealing were in vogue in mid-20th-century Florida, so he dabbled a lot in those (idk, giving himself business as a firefighter??) - in the end, he was convicted of drug trafficking and given 31 years, but he disappeared without a trace then and there, in 1976. he had a number plate reading "EL JEFE" (or something similar) (Spanish for "the chief"). in 2021 Pamela Stephenson wrote Bum Farto the Musical.

MARCUS SAKEY HIDDEN CITY of
I gotta tell you, none of the stories told by crime novelist Marcus Sakey doing his life research enthuse me about Florida's Keys. None of the stories appealed to me. Gold hunting, pirates and flashy small time drug dealer in a humid Caribbean environment is just simply not my thing. Maybe it is I am Caribbean and have a suffering knowledge of the humidity mosquitoes blood sucking infested environment he is talking about which in itself is a tortured space. Believe me, I am not exaggerating. Here is Marcus half hour rendezvous show in which he crams 3 stories into a three in one sensation of Déjà vu real life stories some turned legend.

In my search for optimal films made or about the Florida's Key Bay location site, I was all torn up about which of these movies to select. I decided on a classic. I had seen this movie as a teenager way back and more than 50 years ago. A black and white film which youngsters of today are not very much fond off and to them is just a lot of stale movies, which is how many feel about history.

Key Largo (1948)
Key Largo premiered the year I was born in 1948. It is an iconic film to look back at old Florida. Starring Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson and Lauren Bacall, this black and white classic is about an ex-Army Major who travels to Key Largo to pay respects to his late friend’s wife and father who run a hotel on the island. An incoming hurricane keeps few guests at the hotel, and in a lawless-Key-West-kinda twist, the hotel is soon overrun with gangsters who hold the main characters hostage. The film is like seeing a play - the dialogue and set have stood up to time, and some say this is Robinson’s and Bogart’s best work. Key Largo now annually hosts the Humphrey Bogart Film Festival in honor of Bogart’s acclaimed performance in this film.
Key Largo is a 1948 American film noircrimedrama directed by John Huston and starring Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson and Lauren Bacall. The supporting cast features Lionel Barrymore and Claire Trevor.[3][4] The film was adapted by Richard Brooks and Huston from Maxwell Anderson's 1939 play of the same name.[5]Key Largo was the fourth and final film pairing of actors Bogart and Bacall, after To Have and Have Not (1944), The Big Sleep (1946), and Dark Passage (1947). Claire Trevor won the 1948 Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her portrayal of alcoholic former nightclub singer Gaye Dawn. (Key Largo (film) - Wikipedia)

It is such a bizarre obsession I have as a middle aged man, but it's such a nice show to watch when I'm overstimulated and just need a minute of calm, plus I get all my gentle parenting tips from the Heelers. My dog likes it too honestly, and I did read somewhere that they made it in colors that dogs can see on purpose. I didn't know that! Definitely borrowing my nieces. Bum Farto, yes. I think his name was Joseph Farto but his nickname was Bum and I really hope it's because his surname was Farto. He was a fire chief and drug dealer, and he was described as a "man of motion" and excessively alert and he never sat behind desks because behind still seemed unnatural to him. He wore rose tinted glasses, smoked cigars and always wore red because he believed it to ward off evil spirits, and his lime green Ford Galaxie had an El Jefe license plate... How I didn't invent this man in my brain for an SNL sketch is beyond me. I can't believe he's real, because these are literally the people that live in my brain. So anyway, do you want to go see Bum Farto the Musical with me in October? It's happening in Florida but I have never needed something so viscerally. I am just a sock guy, I like a bright sock, no pattern preference though.
I hate that i know what you're talking about. I can't say i know as much as you in this "bluey-verse" but i'll be crossing my fingers you get your bingo, man. I also heard build a bear do a "pay as your age" right ? now, we can hide the real age and in that case actually bring your niece - now wait, wait. did you just say bum farto ? aint no way. You've made me go down a rabbit hole, but you know, i feel like it's more of a wholesome nickname then the actual guy...unless ? see, i love a fart joke, and i will die on the hill of saying it's perfectly fine to enjoy that humour, it's how i know i can trust somebody. Okay so o'm getting you and i matching socks for your birthday, got it. any particular pattern preferences ?

10 and 11 for the fairytale asks - Pinkcupboardwitch
thank you!!
10: A horrific beast has locked you in their castle. What character trait of theirs would sway you to look beyond that gruesome face and, eventually, make you fall in love?
their resilience. it’s a trait I really respect in people, and I think if you were living in that situation -- either because people feared you and you had locked yourself away to avoid it, or because you had been cursed into that life -- you would have to be a really resilient kind of person. I’m not really afraid of monsters to begin with, if I’m honest -- evil rarely wears an ugly face, after all -- but it would definitely be the resilience; the determination to keep going and to keep living despite what’s trying to make it so difficult. and the sheer balls to lock me in a castle, to be honest. like. I wouldn’t try that shit with me.
11: As part of the Fae folk - What name would you tell mortals if they tried to find out yours?
truly? whatever I felt like at the time. names don’t have to be consistent, and this is actually what I do now. nobody actually knows my True Name™, and I don’t just mean online. I go by whatever name I like or that pops into my head at the time, and my own name is a closely guarded secret. not for any deep reason or anything not like by knowing it you could wield my power, aha ;) but just because it’s nobody’s business. I don’t want to be restricted to one name. that can’t really define me, you know?
I feel sorry for the mortals trying to work this out, though. they’re gonna think they’ve all met a different Fae, but in actually fact it was just me. god help the poor bastard who comes across me on a day I felt like going by Bum Farto or something.
