From the movie 'BASQUIAT'
This says a lot about art in any medium.
VOICE (O.S.)
Everybody wants to get on the Van Gogh boat. There's no trip so horrible that someone won't take it. The idea of the unrecognized genius slaving away in a garret is a deliciously foolish one. We must credit the life of Vincent Van Gogh for really sending this myth into orbit. How many pictures did he sell? One? He couldn't give them away. We are so ashamed of his life that the rest of art history will be retribution for Van Gogh's neglect. No one wants to be part of a generation that ignores another Van Gogh.
---The beam of light shines through a small hole. It falls upon a sleeping, dreaming, delighted face. It belongs to JEAN MICHEL BASQUIAT.
Big day today at Comedy Central... haven't eaten lunch yet, but I had an ice coffee and chips and dip (hot spicy dip).
Drinking water right now. Very exciting day!

Highlights of the night:
TC'S Chris McShane (MVP OF THE NIGHT) snagging ball at shortstop and hitting up a storm.
TC'S Glenn Clements - another guy who hit really well.
TC'S Jackie Cohen and her toughness at second base.
TC'S Adam Cole Kelly/Jason Hsaio knocking some balls around the park.
CONAN'S Jason Chillemi's grandslam was stunning.
CONAN'S Peter Shagrue -one mean hitting machine.
CONAN'S Janine Michael went one for three and her hit was a big one!
I went 2 for 4 with two girlie singles. I didn't play defense because we had enough players.
Overall it was a great game. Both teams did good!

Celia Cruz Dies at 77
(AP) - Celia Cruz, who went from singing in Havana nightclubs to become the "Queen of Salsa," died Wednesday, her publicist said. Cruz, who was 77, died of a brain tumor. She had surgery for the ailment in December but her health faltered. She died at her home in Fort Lee, N.J
I met Ms. Cruz last year at the Telemundo 2003 Fall Preview. She was an incredible person and was just stunning during her performance. I feel lucky to have seen her live! I remeber one thing she said to me while walking her to the stage, "You are a doll face, you have a doll's face."
Rest in Peace!
And here are two of the emails I received (I didn't write these, really!).

WATCH THIS MOVIE!!!!!!
WADE DOES POETRY LIVE!
I know some of you are very excited, last night I received many (2) emails hoping that they could somehow get an early peak at the great 15 second long piece of work.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO! YOU GOTTA WAIT!
July 15, 2003
Tomorrow, yes, tomorrow (I love ya, tomorrow) I will put the
latest Hoboken Movie on the web.
The Hoboken short (about 15 seconds long but hours long of continuous entertainment value) will be a highlight of my short, but stunning, groundbreaking poetry read performance last night at Rodeo/Rista in Hoboken. Count the seconds, count the minutes. WADEHEADS, are you ready????????
Shot video footage last night in Hoboken at a poetry-esque slam at Rodeo/Rista bar. It was the first time I've ever been part of a poetry night. YES, I DID POETRY. The first one was called, "BACON, THAT GIRL SHE EATS BACON" and the other one was, "LUCILE, I LOVE YOU." I hope to have parts of it edited and put on this site. The lighting was really bad but WADE WAS IN GREAT POETIC SPIRITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
July 14, 2003
Thanks for coming and spreading the word of WADE!
WADE BIO FACT OF THE DAY (just so you know why I'm doing this... people were begging to find out more about WADE so now I'm giving the people what they want).
I can't eat lobster. I was at Hampton Beach, NH when I was like 11 and my parents took me to a fancy restaurant and I had lobster and got really really sick. That night I also ate a devil dog and drank grapefruit juice.
(No Joke)
July 13, 2003
So far today I've had 13 visitors to the site, that's cool. I mean it's a sunny day out and 13 people still... still needed their WADE FIX! Bravo die hard WADE fanantics.
MORE INFO ON WADE UPDATE #2 (curious about bio facts about WADE?):
The following is false info, rumored stuff, but we can't confirm it:
WADE'S first loveletter he wrote to a girl (he was 10 at the time) consisted of a drawing of two cartoon kittycats with both his characteristics and his first love. (He always wore a blue barracuda jacket, she always wore a white hooded sweatshirt).
THE AFTERMATH OF THIS FACT:
The girl never talked to WADE again and threw the drawing into the garbage so WADE could see it in there with the trash and... well that trashed WADE'S heart for two whole years and ended a perhaps AWESOME, PROMISING, RICH CAREER as a CARTOONIST.
July 12, 2003
I get many emails, people curious, they ask, "Wade, we need more bio information about you, GIVE IT TO US, PLEASE!"
Okay, that's not a question, that's a demand, so over the course of the next few weeks I will be writing little "true" WADE BIO FACTS into my day to day posts. I am here for you.
Todays ADAM WADE TRUE BIO fact:
Working as an NBC Page in New York City in 2000, one of BAYWATCH'S Biggest stars yelled at poor, little, helpless WADE (hint:the 'star' was also in a show with a talking car.).
BONUS FACT (just for you):
What did he yell at WADE?
"I can grab my jacket, I can go to the bathroom or I can stand here talking to you!"
Yes folks, and I still can't understand why my mother loves this guy so much.
MOUCHO BONIUS FACTO WADEO (always just for you the loyal reader):
How did I respond:
"The bathroom is down the hall to the right, sir."
YET ANOTHER MAGNUM BONIUS FACTO WADEO OPTIMUM:
The bathroom I gave this guy directions to was actually a... ladies room.
OH MY, WOW, YET JUST ONE MORE M.B.F.W.O:
When I saw the 'star' walking back to me, confused and ready to pee himself... THAT MADE ME FEEL REAL GOOD INSIDE!
DON'T MESS WITH WADE!
July 11, 2003
I was home visiting my folks and using their computer when it froze. I was lookiing on
MANDY MOORE.COM
HOW EMBARRASSING WADE # 68!
I was doing research...honest. I was trying to put her on my COFFEE HALL OF FAME!
YES, I got her coffee last August when I was p.a.ing at MTV (yes, me, the guy in his mid 20s).
A total of 40 hits in 5 days (wow)
ADAM WADE'S FIRST TWO HOBOKEN MOVIE-SHORTS
HOBOKEN Movie-short #1
HOBOKEN Movie-short #2
Trust me... you won't see these in Sundance! GUARANTEEED!
Not much going on but...
My brother Matt had his own personal CELEBRITY SIGHTING.
ACTUALLY HE HAD 2 IN ONE DAY!!!!!
And in New Hampshire... that is a major miracle in itself.
First he saw Adam Sandler in Manchester in a convenient store buying an Ice Tea (my brother bought a root beer soda- fyi). My brother acted like it was no big deal, but thought it was nice that Sandler gave a bunch of little kids in the store his autograph.
Second, he saw the lead singer of THE B52s at a bar in Hampton Beach, NH. He said he was very nice. My brother tried to pay him a compliment by having the DJ at the bar play 'Love Shack."
Thanks Matty!

WHAT WADE IS EATING:
I ate one egg today and had a gilled chicken sandwich for lunch. Tonight I may have fish and chips... un oh- I'm caving in. I'm scared, I WANT FRIED FISH, FRENCH FRIES AND A WHOLE MESS OF KETCHUP AND TARTA SAUCE! Or maybe I'll get broiled fish and steamed brocolli.
I'm pathetic.
I AM WADE!
July 9, 2003
'NO EXCUSES, BUDDY. YOU LET TEAM WADE DOWN!'
(I know this is pathetic, I am now talking to myself-I/You/Me/Wade - we are all the same person)
Tomorrow is a new day, back on the old horse and back to eating good, doing pushups, being tough.
Make WADE Proud!
C'mon WADE!
But checking up on who he married... I can't remember her name but she was in a cool movie (AN ADAM WADE-TYPE MOVIE) called FREAK TALKS ABOOUT SEX.
CHECK IT OUT - Wade's movie pick of the week (or month... whatever).
FREAK TALKS ABOOUT SEX
I've been listening to Neil Young's 'FREEDOM' quite a bit lately. Good Stuff (if you like Neil).
I did 55 pushups this morning (thus the big appetite), not all at once. 11 sets of 5. WADE IS HUGE!
July 8, 2003
I just wanted to thank you! Sure hope you come again!
-Adam
I loved the TV show and Bill Bixby/Lou Ferigno.
Disappointment! 'Hulk' not good.
Nope.
Jennifer Connelly was good though.
She cried alot. I like her.
Does anybody remember her in 'Career Opportunities'?
Wow! I wish I saw that tonight instead. She was great in that.
Beautiful! She rollerskates in a vacant K-mart-esque store.
Wow again. Better than 'The Hulk'.
G'Night.
Several people have emailed me about my two Hoboken Movie-shorts

Sad story. I was checking out this pretty girl (mid 20s)that was sitting in front of me with her older mother (60s) and she looked really cute!!!
Then she got up to go to the water and... she was like 4 months pregnant.
No, I didn't make the move to ask her out. Wade is respectful.
Great day, today (sortof)
July 6, 2003
Here are the first two Hoboken Movie-shorts!
Enjoy!
HOBOKEN Movie-short #1
HOBOKEN Movie-short #2
Do you remember the BARBAPAPAS?
I used to watch them when I was really really little on Saturday mornings on a channel in Boston (I think ch 5). Ialso had a picture book where they battle pollution.
I love the Barbapapas.
I am back working at NBC Sports eating a breakfast burrito! Just talked to my good buddy Sal.
July 5, 2003
My first two 40 second Hoboken movie shorts will be on this site this Monday.
Don't expect Citizen Kane, but expect something of a smaller scale and smaller value (now that's how to sell youself, right?).
You will need Quicktime to view them, to download the Free Quicktime Software go to
apple.com.
The first one is dedicated to a few girls I met a couple weeks ago and their escapade after the bar we were at shut down in the pouring rain. The other one is about FOOD!
BUT WADE IS EVEN HOTTER - yes hot! In person- certainly
Go see WADE LIVE!

I'm going to head out for a good dinner. It's a hot 95 degree day in NYC and I still had 20plus visitors day. Bless you!
Sidestory:This morning I had to take the NJ Transit bus into the city at 6am. I was very tired and there was just me, the driver, and this older man with headphones. The older man must have lived in Jersey along time ago because he kept yelling and I mean YELLING at 6am to the busdriver, "What happened to the Tootsie Roll Factory? " "What happened to Aunt Bee Bee's? She used to make the best malts." "Did you know Rosa's Sister?" Rosa who, man? The poor bus driver replied, "I just moved here from Aruba."
I just ate a chocolate muffin.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
July 4, 2003
I just worked out at the gym (WADE WADE WADE), and ate a chicken sandwich at Panera's in Hoboken. $7 sandwich! Can you say... rip off. But my friend Eric works there and he got me a free refill of Sprite. Thanks man.
CELEBRITY SIGHTING 4th of JULY STYLE:
Angela Bessit (How Stella Got Her Groove Back/ What's Love Got to Do With It)
eating with an other lady at Panera's.
I walked by and said, "Hello."
She looked at me kinda funny.
Then I said, "$7 sandwiches... man."
Her and her lady friend giggled and I walked away.
Oh Wade.
I am headed to a cookout with my friends Robin and Amy.
See ya.
July 3, 2003
No celebrity sightings, no big dates, just plain old WADE.
Happy pre 4th of July. Be well!
I am off to work out now. WADE IS GETTING BIG! LEAN, MEAN WADE MACHINE!
I gotta work off that turkey club and fries I ate for lunch.
Caught up with my friend Bruce C. tonight in Hoboken.
And met some good people, Travis, a fellow Tom Waits fan (we had a big conversation about Phanton 309), his lady Stacy (real nice girl), and someone who I personally think has COMEDIC STAR POTENTIAL... MS. ROBIN!!!!!!!
From hearing her endearing, personal, and hilariously funny stories... I HOPE SHE WRITES THEM DOWN SOMEWHERE TO SHARE WITH THE WORLD!
July 2, 2003
I shot the stuff for my Hoboken project today. And well, it's not 'Titanic' folks. But what I plan on doing is making 1 to 3 minute movie shorts based on essays (mini Hoboken stories) that will accompany the footage.
I will then put them on the web, exclusively on ADAMWADE.COM
I know, perhaps this is not a big deal... but, I had 30 people hit this site today and well.. if 5 of them watch my movies on the web, that's good stuff (35 viewers of the movie in one week - according to my calculations). A little ripple in this huge world. I WILL HAVE ACCOMPLISHED MY GOAL! ****
*** to entertain the bored, and give them a smile or two!

A rather ugly guy was making out and getting all huggie with a real pretty girl on the bus a half hour ago. And he didn't look like he had a lot of money. And it wasn't me. My guitar case kept me company on bus (whoops that's what MAKES WADE CRY ##72).
I AM GETTING A MONO-BROW!
THANKS MATT AND ANDREW (hope you like the Rick Rude side joke in my set, that was for you!). Also thanks Jonathan for coming and the lovely Jodi S.
July 1, 2003
Been working on a 10 minute story - a high school epic. It transcends my high school experience, breaking free and slowly becoming an adult. All in 10 minutes? Hey, it's a work in progress. I don't know if it will necessarily be funny funny, but it's real fresh! (real Wade).
