I heard on the Howard Stern Show that Dr. Laura Schlessinger recently put out on the market a talking action figure
of herself, and Howard played a few clips of the sounds that the speaker in the doll actually spews out, namely the voice of Dr. Laura
admonishing listeners on infidelity, child rearing and a whole host of other topics. Anyway, I promptly purchased the doll online,
and after pressing it's belly button a couple of times to activate the speaker and listening to Dr. Laura's recorded voice,
I got inspired to make a short film about her. Below are 2 interesting websites I have come across, there may be more . . .

I just happened to be in San Francisco in 2004 on a trip to film a convention, and in my spare time
I would walk along Market Street and randomly and spontaneously interview people. When I got home, I checked
out the rough footage that I had and decided to piece together a short vignette, which is what can be downloaded below.
My goal is to return to San Francisco and bring along a film crew and a shooting schedule and expand upon the theme, and I will
attempt to fill in the gaps and interview officials of city agencies who monitor the homeless situation.
