When You Are Gone, You are Gone



There's a silence, a vacuum, a void.
I gotta figure out how to fix that.

-----

Back in 1999, I was lucky enough to tour the original Ackermansion with Forrest J Ackerman on a warm Saturday morning in Los Angeles. Forry showed Toby and I the entire house filled to the brim with his collection of science fiction and horror props, memorabilia, letters, books and magazines. He told great stories, answered every stupid question in detail and invited us to go to lunch with him at The Sizzler. Dream fulfilled, it was one of the best days of my life.

RIP, Mr. Sci-Fi.

JMG, BFAM.

I'd love to see you do more of this type of portraiture.

This is a great photo.

Don't worry about the void. It will resolve itself in time.
