BOB WAYNE’S WEBLOG

About Bob Wayne

Yes, I’m an author and a writer. I can prove it. Here’s my book: Troutman Penthouse

Think of it as a cross between Animal House and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. With a little Biloxi Blues thrown in for good measure. If you don’t like the book, don’t hesitate to return it quickly for a full “kiss my pimpled white ass” non-refund.

Thank you for your kind regards.

By the way…I’m from Detroit originally. Now I live on the frozen white tundra of Minnesota with the Diva Drew and not much of anyone else. Can you blame them? She’s a sweetheart but I’m a pain-in-the-ass waiting to happen.

P.S. I don’t smoke. The cigarette in the pictures is a prop from a play I was in. I liked it so much I kept it for fun and profit. The gunman picture was from my role as The Gunman in the play Waiting For Lefty by Clifford Odets. People think I look like a hardass. That’s why I got a role as a cop in the movie Justice.

It was filmed here in Minneapolis. I was actually just supposed to be driving a car in the parking ramp scene and someone got a look at me and said, “Who’s the rough-looking bastard in the beater?”

Next thing I know, they’re handing me a cop uniform and an unloaded pistol (bummer)and asking me if I can show up tomorrow and the next day. Yep, I could. The things you get to do when you’re unemployed!

By the way, I also write scripts occasionally for The Wazoo! Show. It’s a cable TV comedy show that puts out an episode about every 6 or 7 months. The idea is that everyone works on the show for free. It’s a learning opportunity for people who want first hand experience writing, directing, producing, running sound, lights or cameras, or editing.

I’ve had a couple of sketches produced and I was in one I didn’t write called Ducks. It was in the third season, which of course, isn’t posted on the website. I believe my sketch Mr. Kitty Takes a Walk will be in the fourth season, whenever the hell that is.

One last thing about Bob Wayne…I love great poetry…great art…good food…good wine…and too many bad habits!
