It Subracts Up, and Adds Down

So I decided that I needed to take some time. Truth is the ideas that came to me over the past couple of days are more personal then I'm prepared to share, for the moment, I will continue with another "Concept of Truth" in a couple of days.

Lets just call this the transitional period of my blog, see you guys and gals soon.

and don't forget to make life like the story it was meant to be......

Joseph T.V.

So finally it's here Joseph T.V., I know it took a lot longer than expected but I'm pretty satisfied with the way it came out. Besides a couple of mistakes this one I feel was my best work yet. With random shots during the day and 3 hours edit time, it definitely set a record for me. Thank you to all the viewers and email me with comments and questions at (adrianrgraham@hotmail.com).

So even though I slept none tonight, it's a good feeling to get this one done. I'm also in the process of designing blogger t-shirts, if there is a large number of subscribers who want them then they will be made, if you have any suggestions, send them my way....

and of course,

make life the story it was meant to be......

Quick Update

Thanks guys and gals for all the great emails over the past couple of days, I'll get to as many as possible before work time. So besides having the most horrible dreams ever last night, I managed to set my phone back to it's factory settings therefore deleting all of my contacts. So just to put it out there, if I don't call, you know why. Another thing is that if you look over to the right side of this, along with "What Adrian's Watching", you can follow my hour to hour moves on Twitter. That's right, Adrian G. is a Twitter guy now. So if you want to follow just go to Twitter and sign up, my username is adrianrgraham, and of course stay tuned for more updates here on "The Concept of Truth".

P.S. - Joseph T.V. premiers 2mrw so tune in, and also a new script has just been started to create web episodes in the fall called "Breathe", find out more in upcoming posts.

Concept of Truth (Part 4)

"AUXI, AUXI, AUXI", I screamed at the top of my lungs, as if I loved her....insanity must have come because of the chaos. Dust and smoke filled the street, fire glowed in the distance, the cries of thousands didn't seem to be enough.

I can trust her....

Auxi sat in a alley, head in her hands, ash covered and shaking. "Are you okay?", "Auxi, talk to me, are you hurt?"

"Why would I be hurt?", she smiled and lost me in another smile. "The day is almost done, sit with me"

I couldn't make sense of it, so why try? The best thing I could've done was wait it out, so I sat next to her cold soul, a dark presence of misfortune.

Adrenaline pumps through the body......glucose strains are released into the liver and kidneys, making the filtering process faster, a receptor picks up the signals of this release and tells muscles to react. Although this process occurred and a city lay in ruins my reaction was to sleep, a deep sleep, in the arms of the person who would lead me to hell, make me face my demons, and somehow, in the end, save me....

"Wake up, its morning". A hand rested on my face that wasn't mine, I opened my eyes only to see her face still covered in dust and lightened by a fresh sun. "We need a car, do you still know how to....."

"Auxi, what do (we) need a car for, I'm going by myself", I said this with reverence on my tongue and tried to give her some clue that I meant it.

Find me.......

Her eyes swirled and without a word she left the alley for the nearest vehicle, people on the street nearby ripped through stores and apartment buildings, gaining what valuables they could. "Auxi, stop", but it was too late, the car had started, and she waited for my entry. I sat down beside her, resting my head, equally disappointed in myself, a common thing in these days. "Lets go, D.C. is far enough, but its where things will get answered".

My eyes closed to enjoy what peace of mind was still there, the movement of the car felt real compared to what was witnessed the night before.

Auxi hit a button on the dash with the end of her thumb and the radio reception filled the car....

~~~~~For those~~~it seems every major city in~~~~~~~the nearest for all citizens, please find shelter and emergency services will help in timely fashion,~~~~Non-citizens, protocol B38 is at standstill~~~~report to Washington, D.C.,~~~~most importantly, take no action to fin~~~en~~~~gi~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Breathe, its what you were born to do.....

Break It Down Mr. Banana Man

What will the world do without dancing bananas? Good question, but I'm not answering that one since I found one of the few remaining in the world. Here is the exclusive footage of the dancing banana caught in it's natural habitat.....

I'm One Bad Mother--Shut Your Mouth

His Letter:

Adrian without a doubt I absolutely want to jump off of a cliff. I read your blog and it is terrible. Awful that I really wasted time on yours when I could be working on mine. Thanks though for ruining my day and even better my month. The only concept I have is the concept of time, and how much of it I lost on your last couple of post.

P.S.- and no I don't care for your response, just do me a favor and don't write again

My Response:

Hey Marc, glad that you decided to waste your time on my blog and give me something to post today. When I woke up at 9 a.m. to check my email and slowly but surely stumbled across yours I decided to take an entire day to think about it. I even had a defined schedule until I discovered your email.

1: Wake up at 9
2: Check emails and reply to most.
3: Get ready for short road trip.
4: Eat lunch at 2, at Kennedy Space Center
5: Watch Shuttle Launch at 6
6: Be home by 7:30
7: and post something by 9p.m.

Now most of these things got done, along with me getting a haircut somewhere in the middle. But I would like to say above all these things you, my dearest reader, deprived me of a free mind during the events of the day. Thank you Marc. Now look to my video and be constantly reminded of how much more creative, awesome, cool, handsome, smart, funny, adventurous, and every other incredible adjective to ever exist, I am than you.... bye now.....

Please send all emails to adrianrgraham@hotmail.com, I'm only answering there, and trust me I'm answering as fast as I can.....Thanks guys for the support.....

The Days That Fly Like Winged Foe

Dear Camera,

Thanks for the moments...allowing me to reach out to you and mostly the abyss that we receive as reality....


Thanks for the "Peanut Butter Jelly" times, the chance to dance again, even if it is with drunken banana college students...



Thank you for sunny days, and driving through the rain to get there, for capturing our heart, mind and body.....


For being there when your not suppose to be, the essence of randomness and finding the right moment to speak up...


Thank you for the group shot that will never be forgotten, catching the first feel of cold water in an unknown part of ocean.....


and finally thank you for giving me the memories to last a lifetime, the emotions to share with my future self, the ideals of a man with passion, the humility to be in front of the world, to share, breathe, feel, see, hear, and most of all LIVE the story that life was meant to be.......

God holds my camera.......captures my moments......and most of all blesses me........

Concept of Truth (Part Three)

Compassion is man's best friend, guilt is a girl's guilty pleasure, and standing in front of a burning building in the middle of a busy intersection in nothing but a towel is a complete embarrassment. Cigarettes and sex don't match, at least not before.....

Auxi stood there smiling at the police officer, false words filled her head and emptied from her already corpse like lips, cold and heartless indeed. "Me and my boyfriend were just laying around and smoke started filling the room, I was so scared", she almost seemed believable. The officer gave a subtle chuckle and folded his notepad before telling her that he "o so personally" would make everything alright. She began walking towards me, fully clothed unlike myself, how she put hers on so fast is a mystery since she took forever taking them off.

"Excuse me sir, are these yours?", an officer in glasses big enough to melt sand thrusted a pair of pants a few inches from my face. "Ummm, yea, thanks", I said taking the pants and shaking the dirt off with quick whip in the air.

"So now what Auxi, they will find out what happened, I know how this works, do you have a plan, or is this you officially ruining my life", I said this with reverence in my voice, knowing that no matter the answer, I would be unsatisfied. "Time, time, time, time , time".

She stared out into the distance, the busy streets continued, a man with boxes stumbled on a sidewalk, a girl holding hands with her father crossed the intersection, a couple kissed and parted into adjacent buildings, the silence in all of this gripped me with fear.

Not a sound, no horns, no voices, a southern metropolis in complete silence, and then it began...

The southern end of the business district was freckled with small skyscrapers, and as the district ended at my end the buildings grew shorter and stouter. It didn't matter how large these buildings were, or how much they broke the atmosphere, it didn't matter because their existence would be as short as the man stumbling with the boxes on the corner, or the girl and her father crossing the busy intersection, or even the loving couple.......

They fell one by one, a group of over sized dominoes falling with the ease of a god's push. Man's building blocks returning to their original places. Towering accomplishments reached their demise in nothing but fire and ash, the way we should all go. Streets filled with dust and screams began to fill my ears, and turning to run didn't seem important.

Cops and heroes alike began their duty to help protect the lives of the city, crowds ran by me, and the hundred feet that separated me and Auxi only allowed me to see the sinister smile that illuminated her face.....

The Annoucement, and a little fun

I thought it would be nice to try my hand at something I always wanted to do, and since my self expression is at it's highest, I thought, why not.... Hope you like the post, another coming soon!!!

Updates and Singalongs

So I decided to post some things mostly on video for a while, only because the 4th of July has me working like crazy. Enjoy the quick editing and lousy singing in this video. I'm still answering all of the emails I'm getting and will be answering some questions soon. Thanks to everyone for supporting my creative mind. If you have anything to send, adrianrgraham@hotmail.com is the place, or just facebook me.

Your writer that can't seem to hit a decent note,

Adrian G.
