ROCK THE VOTE L.A.: "Start Up The Show" (About L.A. City 2013 Elections) by Zuma Dogg - via LACityElections.com

[PICTURED: ZD's "Start Up The Show" music producer, J Staffz (@JStaffz) The new #1 Stunna!]
 
ZD's Incomparable Producer J Staffz.
"Start Up The Show!" by @ZumaDogg (About March 05, 2013 L.A. City Elections.)




"Start Up The Show!": First of all, GOTTA thank @JStaffz, up-front, cause this song NEVER coulda happened, without his hit-music production. If you know ZD, takes about 2 seconds to think it's "custom produced" for Mr. Dogg. (Especially, THESE days.) The music, itself, sounds like a nutball parade, marchin' down the street (like in ZD's "One Man Parade" video on this blog, put to song.) And, what is more NUTTY than the parade of insanity, marching all over L.A, Aka: "Los Angeles City 2013 Elections." So like the chocolate and peanut butter of a Resses PeaNUT Butter Cup; or Snoop & Dre, he's Zuma Dogg, produced by J Staffz, with the POLITICAL ANTHEM about L.A. City Elections (Aka: Union installations of their empty-suit puppets/sociopath incumbents) -- here's, "Start Up The Show." This song (lyrics and beat selection) inspired (un-inspired, more like it) by my L.A. district City Council (City Hall/Union Backed/Shoe-in) Candidate, to see what issues are his top priority -- and it was a union yellow pages listing: MikeBonin.com/Blog. (Nice blog, Mike. If I need union contact info, I know where to go!)

The non-revolution of this March 05, 2013 Union installation will be televised at www.LACityElections.com.

MORE ON @ZumaDogg:


A ZD reader in Wimington, NC sent me a facebook message, asking for my help with HIS local city council on 1st Amendment issues and noted, "Zuma Dogg, I consider you a hero to our nation and The People..." (Thanks!) 

And here's what the media, elected officials and more of The People have to say about ZD, just to give the guy in NC some credibility...

* "Andrew Breitbart, try as he might, could never illustrate the disjointed hilarity of Occupy L.A. with the same brilliance."  - LA Weekly on @ZumaDogg

* "I've seen the future of television comedy. Zuma Dogg is the only American comedian today wearing the comedy-genius mantle once borne by Lenny Bruce, Allen Funt and Andy Kaufman." - Michael Heaton/Syndicated Pop-Culture Columnist

* "Brain-seizing artistry. A local underground superstar. -D. Harvey/LA Weekly

* "A public access icon." - M. Fleischer/LA Weekly

* "I'd just as soon vote for Zuma Dogg as Villaraigosa." - Bill Handel/KFI, after having Zuma Dogg on his show for interview.

* "Local Legend" - Doug McIntyre/790-KABC

* "It would be nice to see someone with the heroism of Zuma Dogg in office." - Kevin James/870-KRLA Radio

* Featured on ABC News Nightline, CBS2, KNBC4, KABC7, KCAL9, FOX11 TV and KFI, KABC, K-TALK & KRLA radio as L.A.'s most recognized and respected citizen voice. 

* "Zuma Dogg fought the oppressive, tightly controlled L.A. City Council meetings presided over by Council President Eric Garcetti, who had banned video cameras. After police tried to stop Zuma Dogg from taping the council deliberations, he railed against the big shots for months, slamming Garcetti as “Garshady” on his show and on his whistleblower blog. "Whatever happened to free speech in this country?," Zuma Dogg asked. He prevailed against Garcetti’s rules, and now brings his cameracorder to every council meeting, as can any member of the public thanks to him." - LA Weekly.

* "You're actually one of my favorite people to watch on TV." - Former L.A. Mayor Richard Riordan to Zuma Dogg on KABC radio. 

* " Zuma Dogg has distinguished himself as a "mix of curiosity and crusader" fighting for what he considers his free-speech rights."He's been able to do it with humor and at times be more direct and substantive." Los Angeles City Council President Eric Garcetti/Los Angeles Times

* "An original ... another treasure of Venice." - Los Angeles City Councilman Bill Rosendahl

* " A civic treasure." - Michael Higby/Mayor Sam's Blog (L.A. politics)

* "I've seen you on TV. Keep doing what you're doing." - Dennis Franz

* "Zuma Dogg, not only one of the most recognizable figures at City Hall, cordially greeted by passersby, including security guards and Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, he also has the ear of high-level insiders, who feed him information in the hope that he’ll expose, and possibly stop, one questionable government project or another." - LA Weekly (Click here for article.)

* ""He wakes us up; it gets everyone's attention." L.A. City Controller Wendy Greuel/Los Angeles Times

(GOOD! I THINK IT WOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH FOR MOST PEOPLE, IF MY ONLY DISTINCTION WAS WAKING THEM UP!)

* "Something between stunned and amazed. "I've never seen anything like it." - Former California Assembly Speaker, Councilman Herb Wesson/Los Angeles Times

THANKS TO THE NEARLY 10,000 PEOPLE who voted for "Zuma Dogg" in the last Los Angeles Mayoral election. (Not a bad number to pull, considering the historically low voter turnout, and the fact that ZD didn't spend a penny on his campaign, and didn't have the luxury of one flier." The mayor spent $3 million, just for comparison.)

* "Zuma Dogg, who is smarter than and knows more about city government than most Council members, has become something of an urban folk hero, skewering City Hall foibles and failures in his frequent public comment appearances broadcast on Channel 35. His campaigns for mayor and now CD2 attracted respectable numbers of votes for a candidate who was not only is penniless but homeless." - Ron Kaye/RonKayeLA.com (IMAGINE IF I HAD PENNIES TO WORK WITH!)

* "I too, as you may know, am a Deming fan. I think your synthesis of his work is fabulous." - Anthony Robbins

* "Very Well Done." - Dr. W. Edwards Deming on "Interpreting Deming's 14 Points," by Zuma Dogg. (Published internationally in "Quality Digest." I was told the letter from Deming had to be a fake, cause all he ever did was scribble red ink on everything. Let alone send a response like that. I had to fax the letter to some folks for verification. LOL! Too good to be true. I was in my 20's and was told, they were expecting someone in their 60's or 70's, because it usually takes that long to be able to write something at that level. Awe Shucks!)

* "I especially liked your of explanation Deming's more controversial points." - Don Dewar/Publisher, Quality Digest

* "You not only took our ideas, but expanded them in ways I thought were very interesting." - Al Ries ("Marketing Warfare," "22 Immutable Laws of Marketing," "Focus.")

Guess networks and cable channels couldn't come up with anything as good as "Zuma Dogg" for all their mulit-million dollar budgets and writers and producers and directors and technical crew and marketing departments. BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE WERE WATCHING "ZUMA DOGG" INSTEAD OF YOU...AND I HAD TO DO IT BY CATCHING THEIR ATTENTION IN A CHANNEL SURF, WITH THE (BY FAR) LOWEST PRODUCTION VALUE OF ANY SHOW IN TELEVISION HISTORY. I WIN, LOSER!:


* "A very funny comedian." - Howard Stern

* "Everyone watches Zuma Dogg!" - Reggie Miller/NBA All Star

* "We watch your videos on our tour bus. We need more." - Dean DeLeo (STP)

* "I am such a fan of your show." - Courteney Cox-Arquette

* "Zuma Dogg is Da Bomb!" - Emilio Estevez 

* "Love your show buddy. I watch it all the time." - Adam Sandler

UNSOLICITED EMAIL COMMENTS FROM REAL PEOPLE WHO CAUGHT "ZUMA DOGG" DURING AN L.A. CABLE TV CHANNEL SURF:

I was not at all prepared for the brilliance of your show.

In all honesty I was absolutely blown away. It was the most fresh, funniest, innovative thing that I've seen on television in the past five years

You're a genius! When can we catch more shows? Do you have any of your old shows available?

honestly, you may have been the funniest person i've ever see. I was laughing so hard I woke up my girlfriend.

If i owned a big TV company your show would be on 24/7!! I have never laughed so hard for so long, it's awesome. Can't wait for the next one, me and my friends will be talkin about it for a week! lol...

How can I get a copy of tonight's episode? It was the funniest thing I've seen in years. Thank you.

I hope you know you have the best show in the history of the planet!

I was wondering if I could maybe get your Autograph...It would mean alot...I know a ton of kids at my skool that love your show too....They are always talking in your voice and going crazy..

you have the best show ever, you are the best white rapper in the world!!!

It was so beautiful that I had tears in my eyes. Let's just say I was moved.

I think your show displays a VERY intelligent and socially conscience realistic view of the world and you do it in a very original and very artistic way.

NOBODY HAS DONE WHAT YOU ARE DOING. Keep it up.

i love your show. it is the most excellent thing in all of televisionland.

My name is Lauren and let me begin by saying you are one of the finest displays of unconventional genius I've seen in a long time.

We just wanted to write to let you know how spectacular we thought your show was.

i was just wondering, if there's anyway i can buy your shows on video or something.

my boyfriend and i just stumbled upon you singing saturday night fever tunes - and we can't stop laughing - thanks...

I caught your last episode. Let me tell you that it was a Classic. The part about Elton John had me laughing all night.

Do you sell your music or dvds of your show? If not, you should. Your latest song is good as hell.

saw your show the other night and let me say,it was some of the funniest shit i've seen on tv in a long time,keep up the good work.

My girlfriend and i caught your show for the first time 3 weeks ago. I recorded it and show it around to friends. It is so g-damn funny. I keep waiting to see you somewhere.

Just to let you know, I dig what you do, you are a funny and talented person. It took me a couple shows to get it but now I got it so keep it up, look forward to the new shows.

I CAN MATCH EVERY ONE OF THESE QUOTES WITH 100 MORE, JUST LIKE IT...but, you will STILL try to come up with a reason why it would NEVER WORK!

"No one would ever watch this. It's not a show. It's not even comedy." - Comedy Central. Meanwhile, I just keep on, keepin' on...growing more legendary and iconic by the day. Like Irene Cara says, "What A Feeling!"
  
Do you think you are ever going to find anyone who can generate buzz like this? It was all out of an empty pocket, mostly while homeless, as it all unfolded LIVE before the people's eyes on local cable TV, radio, newspapers and internet. (The world's most compelling REAL, reality show.)

STORY: Local public access TV personality, Zuma Dogg was told by City Hall he couldn't set up his amp or sell Zuma Dogg shirts, CDs & DVDs at Venice Beach boardwalk, anymore. ZD protested this 1st Amendment violation of the U.S. Constitution inside the chambers of L.A. City Hall, as televised LIVE throughout the city, and created more political backlash against them than any single voice in history -- and woke up the whole city to the fraud, waste and abuse that pushed the city to the edge of bankruptcy. On October 2010, a Federal Judge agreed with Zuma Dogg, who sued the city over this matter, and issued an injunction against the city as they prepare to pay Zuma Dogg for damages.

NEW POLITICAL SONG About L.A. City Elections (March 05, 2013) - "Start Up The Show" by Zuma Dogg (About Union Installations Aka: "Elections" As Angelinos Whine and DO NOTHING=REMAIN POLITE!")


YOU DUMB, PATHETIC, INFERIOR, LAUGHING STOCKS WHO LIVE IN L.A. (you KNOW the rest of the country makes fun of you flaky nut-jobs.) THIS UPCOMING MARCH 2013 IS ALREADY A TRAVESTY, FROM WHAT I SEE -- AND YOU DUMB FUCKS WHINE ABOUT ALL THE WRONG/DUMB STUFF -- AND DON'T REALLY DO ANYTHING, BUT THAT! YOU DO NOT HAVE 1 in 100,000,000 CHANCE OF DEFEATING "THE UNION MAFIA" -- THAT IS REALLY WHAT "L.A. CITY COUNCIL" & The Mayor's Office is. THESE FOOLS COULD BE DEFEATED...but not when I look and listen at what is being said and done on YOUR END.."The People's" end. I may be cranky from not eating -- but I am here to say, my feeling of disdain toward you DUMB FUCK ANGELINOS, is REALLY making me cranky. I always considered myself an average/regular guy. I never should have had so much personal spotlight for this political stuff. These crackers are making me thirsty.

HERE'S A "ROCK THE VOTE" SONG (recorded December 28, 2013) about the whole situation. "Start Up The Show!" About L.A. City Elections (Union Installations):

AND SOME RECENT TWEETS for YOU SAD, LOSERS of LOSS ANGELES: (You LIKE to TAKE IT UP THE ASS by your CROOKED/LYING ELECTED OFFICIALS):

12-27-12 UPDATE: I feel a little better, cause I ate some food, and usually I would remove all the nasty stuff...but, these day...I AM more comfortable leaving it, as posted, thank you very little.


I created campaign posts for 2 "REAL" candidates in March council elections to help, but I see L.A. voters are NUTTY LOSERS=I took em down.
Was gonna focus on council elections where city hall candidates COULD be beat=but I see People of L.A. are HOPELESS nutty losers. FORGET IT.
Two of March 2013 elections have ALREADY BEEN DECIDED: CD11=Mike Bonin & CD5=Paul Koretz. TOO MUCH UNION BACKING for REGULAR people to win.
I am someone without ONE CENT and NO FOOD, but am smart enough to see BIG PICTURE=if u raises taxes on rich=WILL DESTROY THE COUNTRY. !
If Obama gets his way on this tax credit issue and taxes get raised on rich people=WILL BE THE END OF U.S. AS WE KNOW IT. DEVASTATING EFFECT
Only ONE kinda person who thinks raising taxes on job creators/business won't DESTROY the economy: Mafia criminals and Barack Obama.

ANDREA ALARCON "SITUATION" - An Abuse Of Power, Special Treatment and a COVER UP (Involving Villaraigosa): LAPD HAS SOME QUESTIONS TO ANSWER, IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT? [www.LACityNews.com EXCLUSIVE!]

9:40PM UPDATE: THIS POST IS ON FIRE/VIEWS SKYROCKETING IN NO TIME! You LOSERS in L.A. City LOVE reading @ZumaDogg tell you EVERY WAY U R GETTING FUCKED by City Hall, but ZD=becoming increasingly frustrated at your ability to continue to take it (so politely with such L.A. council chamber decorum), with NO action.  I just enjoy putting you to SHAME, by doing media and YOUR job for you. ("#L")

This was posted over the weekend, when a lot of people were away from their computers -- and skyrocketed past all other blog posts/topics and issues about City of Los Angeles. As I mention in the post, at first I felt this was a "parenting" issue, not something for a blog about L.A. City Hall (Villaraigosa/City Clouncil) fraud, waste and ABUSE (of power); BUT, after reading (belatedly) a report in the newspaper about this ANDREA ALARCON ("Everyone In The Club Gettin' Tipsy") SITUATION -- IT'S ALL ABOUT ONE THING -- ABUSE OF POWER -- AND SPECIAL TREATMENT of people who are not supposed to be any more "specialer" than you and I. READ THIS TAKE in ZD's edition of the board game "CLUE" (It was Villaraigosa with Alarcon in the hotel room, while drunk, covering (up) tracks and intimidating those who know.")

  SOME SERIOUS QUESTIONS AND THINGS TO THINK ABOUT, regarding the "Andrea Alacron" (everybody in club gettin' "Tipsy") sticky-situation. At first I didn't wanna cover this on L.A. City News/L.A. Daily Blog, cause at first, appeared to be a personal parenting issue.  BUT, as I continue to think about, and see how it is being reported/portrayed in the L.A. Times, L.A. Weekly -- and the reason D.A. Jacky Lacey used to pass it Trutanich (not that I care, but interesting linguistics) -- AND, most importantly; the preferential treatment and use of LAPD and L.A. City Hall by the political insiders; and perhaps a cover-up, including LAPD (who has some camera footage at Parker Center and phone records to check) -- here's what I was thinking:

Here is how I believe things went down on this one. Sometime around 10, Ms. Alarcon told her daughter that she was going to leave for a bit. She gave her daughter her city phone and left. The daughter ran outside and saw her mother with the Mayor and or with his assistant. The daughter probably wanted to not be left alone and her mother told her to go back inside. The daughter did; but, for some odd reason ended up in the parking structure beneath City Hall or City Hall East where she was found by security.

Security obviously asked her who she was and she said who her mother was. They were also told to call the number that the daughter was given to call if she needed her mother. Security called that number and got whoever they got. At that point in time they were told to keep an eye on the little girl or return her to her mothers office or do whatever. Security didn't feel comfortable with that, they waited an hour and called the police to come pick the girl up. After all, they are not babysitters.

It does not require a lot of thought to figure this all out. My guess, security didn't want to wait all night for Alarcon to come back and their shift had ended. My guess is they called Alarcon or whoever again. Phone records would show that. In either case, Ms. Alarcon did not return and security turned the child over to the police. It would be reasonable to expect the police to immediately call the number the daughter had; but, still the daughter was not picked up by Ms. Alarcon a couple of blocks away. Nope it took hours because arrangements had to be made to protect the man that was with her.

One article says that everyone in the bar was sworn to secrecy. What does that mean? What favors or money or threats would it take to swear all of those people to secrecy? Now the police acted oddly, why wasn't Child Protective Services called immediately? What did the kid do between the hours of 11:30 and 2:00 while with the police? Did the really agree to be babysitters too? That is not normal for them. Why did the LAPD not follow their own protocol? A story had to be created by drunk people in a hurry. Those stories rarely stand up to any real scrutiny and we have seen none from the L.A. Times or the Daily News or any other rag. Nope, this town is controlled or so it seems.

Here is the most corrupt and amusing part. The District Attorney chose not to prosecute Ms. Alarcon because her kid was left with the security personnel. Did you get that? The kid was not "left" with security personnel, read the articles, she was found by security personnel, there is a difference. So, how many people don't give a rat's rearend about this child. Obviously her mother doesn't care enough to take care of her. The "man" she was with didn't care. The kid could have been raped or abducted; but, going to have a drink with someone was more important. 

Here is an interesting question. Who were the cops that watched that kid and why haven't they been interviewed. Did they get overtime so that the number of people involved was kept to a minimum? The child would have been taken to Parker Center, it has many cameras, there must be video. Why is it that the media has not asked to see the videos from inside or even outside of City Hall?

Here is the most amusing thing. The police have the ability to track cell phones and find locations. They called a phone number off of Ms. Alarcon's City issued cell phone and I know they can track those. Why didn't the police send someone to pick up Ms. Alarcon? 


Again, just a bunch of random questions. 

AND, it was ALL to celebrate the TRIUMPHANT return of the most sickening, gross, corrupt asshole, ever to DESTROY the character and fabric of this city -- MERCEDES MARQUEZ! (I'd post her picture, but don't wanna drive away all the viewers, when you see her.)  EVEN (WAY) MORE VIEWS THAN THE STORY ABOUT THE DRUNKEN 
COMMISSIONER WITH THE KID AT MIDNIGHT; AND THE COVER UP.

my boyfriend and i just stumbled upon you singing saturday night fever tunes - and we can't stop laughing - thanks...

I caught your last episode. Let me tell you that it was a Classic. The part about Elton John had me laughing all night.

Do you sell your music or dvds of your show? If not, you should. Your latest song is good as hell.

saw your show the other night and let me say,it was some of the funniest shit i've seen on tv in a long time,keep up the good work.

My girlfriend and i caught your show for the first time 3 weeks ago. I recorded it and show it around to friends. It is so g-damn funny. I keep waiting to see you somewhere.

Just to let you know, I dig what you do, you are a funny and talented person. It took me a couple shows to get it but now I got it so keep it up, look forward to the new shows.

I CAN MATCH EVERY ONE OF THESE QUOTES WITH 100 MORE, JUST LIKE IT...but, you will STILL try to come up with a reason why it would NEVER WORK!

Do you think you are ever going to find anyone who can generate buzz like this? It was all out of an empty pocket, mostly while homeless, as it all unfolded LIVE before the people's eyes on local cable TV, radio, newspapers and internet. (The world's most compelling REAL, reality show.)

STORY: Local public access TV personality, Zuma Dogg was told by City Hall he couldn't set up his amp or sell Zuma Dogg shirts, CDs & DVDs at Venice Beach boardwalk, anymore. ZD protested this 1st Amendment violation of the U.S. Constitution inside the chambers of L.A. City Hall, as televised LIVE throughout the city, and created more political backlash against them than any single voice in history -- and woke up the whole city to the fraud, waste and abuse that pushed the city to the edge of bankruptcy. On October 2010, a Federal Judge agreed with Zuma Dogg, who sued the city over this matter, and issued an injunction against the city as they prepare to pay Zuma Dogg for damages.

It's either an Academy Award worthy movie in the right hands or the biggest cable network talk show in television history.

About Zuma Dogg: Press Reviews & Viewer Comments [www.ZumaDogg.com]

A ZD reader in Wimington, NC sent me a facebook message, asking for my help with HIS local city council on 1st Amendment issues and noted, "Zuma Dogg, I consider you a hero to our nation and The People..." (Thanks!) 

And here's what the media, elected officials and more of The People have to say about ZD, just to give the guy in NC some credibility...

* "Andrew Breitbart, try as he might, could never illustrate the disjointed hilarity of Occupy L.A. with the same brilliance."  - LA Weekly on @ZumaDogg


* "I've seen the future of television comedy. Zuma Dogg is the only American comedian today wearing the comedy-genius mantle once borne by Lenny Bruce, Allen Funt and Andy Kaufman." - Michael Heaton/Syndicated Pop-Culture Columnist

* "Brain-seizing artistry. A local underground superstar. -D. Harvey/LA Weekly

* "A public access icon." - M. Fleischer/LA Weekly


* "I'd just as soon vote for Zuma Dogg as Villaraigosa." - Bill Handel/KFI, after having Zuma Dogg on his show for interview.

* "Local Legend" - Doug McIntyre/790-KABC

* "It would be nice to see someone with the heroism of Zuma Dogg in office." - Kevin James/870-KRLA Radio

* Featured on ABC News Nightline, CBS2, KNBC4, KABC7, KCAL9, FOX11 TV and KFI, KABC, K-TALK & KRLA radio as L.A.'s most recognized and respected citizen voice. 

* "Zuma Dogg fought the oppressive, tightly controlled L.A. City Council meetings presided over by Council President Eric Garcetti, who had banned video cameras. After police tried to stop Zuma Dogg from taping the council deliberations, he railed against the big shots for months, slamming Garcetti as “Garshady” on his show and on his whistleblower blog. "Whatever happened to free speech in this country?," Zuma Dogg asked. He prevailed against Garcetti’s rules, and now brings his cameracorder to every council meeting, as can any member of the public thanks to him." - LA Weekly.


* "You're actually one of my favorite people to watch on TV." - Former L.A. Mayor Richard Riordan to Zuma Dogg on KABC radio. 

* " Zuma Dogg has distinguished himself as a "mix of curiosity and crusader" fighting for what he considers his free-speech rights."He's been able to do it with humor and at times be more direct and substantive." Los Angeles City Council President Eric Garcetti/Los Angeles Times

* "An original ... another treasure of Venice." - Los Angeles City Councilman Bill Rosendahl

* " A civic treasure." - Michael Higby/Mayor Sam's Blog (L.A. politics)

* "I've seen you on TV. Keep doing what you're doing." - Dennis Franz

* "Zuma Dogg, not only one of the most recognizable figures at City Hall, cordially greeted by passersby, including security guards and Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, he also has the ear of high-level insiders, who feed him information in the hope that he’ll expose, and possibly stop, one questionable government project or another." - LA Weekly (Click here for article.)

* ""He wakes us up; it gets everyone's attention." L.A. City Controller Wendy Greuel/Los Angeles Times

(GOOD! I THINK IT WOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH FOR MOST PEOPLE, IF MY ONLY DISTINCTION WAS WAKING THEM UP!)

* "Something between stunned and amazed. "I've never seen anything like it." - Former California Assembly Speaker, Councilman Herb Wesson/Los Angeles Times

THANKS TO THE NEARLY 10,000 PEOPLE who voted for "Zuma Dogg" in the last Los Angeles Mayoral election. (Not a bad number to pull, considering the historically low voter turnout, and the fact that ZD didn't spend a penny on his campaign, and didn't have the luxury of one flier." The mayor spent $3 million, just for comparison.)

* "Zuma Dogg, who is smarter than and knows more about city government than most Council members, has become something of an urban folk hero, skewering City Hall foibles and failures in his frequent public comment appearances broadcast on Channel 35. His campaigns for mayor and now CD2 attracted respectable numbers of votes for a candidate who was not only is penniless but homeless." - Ron Kaye/RonKayeLA.com (IMAGINE IF I HAD PENNIES TO WORK WITH!)

* "I too, as you may know, am a Deming fan. I think your synthesis of his work is fabulous." - Anthony Robbins

* "Very Well Done." - Dr. W. Edwards Deming on "Interpreting Deming's 14 Points," by Zuma Dogg. (Published internationally in "Quality Digest." I was told the letter from Deming had to be a fake, cause all he ever did was scribble red ink on everything. Let alone send a response like that. I had to fax the letter to some folks for verification. LOL! Too good to be true. I was in my 20's and was told, they were expecting someone in their 60's or 70's, because it usually takes that long to be able to write something at that level. Awe Shucks!)

* "I especially liked your of explanation Deming's more controversial points." - Don Dewar/Publisher, Quality Digest

* "You not only took our ideas, but expanded them in ways I thought were very interesting." - Al Ries ("Marketing Warfare," "22 Immutable Laws of Marketing," "Focus.")

Guess networks and cable channels couldn't come up with anything as good as "Zuma Dogg" for all their mulit-million dollar budgets and writers and producers and directors and technical crew and marketing departments. BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE WERE WATCHING "ZUMA DOGG" INSTEAD OF YOU...AND I HAD TO DO IT BY CATCHING THEIR ATTENTION IN A CHANNEL SURF, WITH THE (BY FAR) LOWEST PRODUCTION VALUE OF ANY SHOW IN TELEVISION HISTORY. I WIN, LOSER!:


* "A very funny comedian." - Howard Stern

* "Everyone watches Zuma Dogg!" - Reggie Miller/NBA All Star

* "We watch your videos on our tour bus. We need more." - Dean DeLeo (STP)

* "I am such a fan of your show." - Courteney Cox-Arquette

* "Zuma Dogg is Da Bomb!" - Emilio Estevez 

* "Love your show buddy. I watch it all the time." - Adam Sandler

UNSOLICITED EMAIL COMMENTS FROM REAL PEOPLE WHO CAUGHT "ZUMA DOGG" DURING AN L.A. CABLE TV CHANNEL SURF:

I was not at all prepared for the brilliance of your show.

In all honesty I was absolutely blown away. It was the most fresh, funniest, innovative thing that I've seen on television in the past five years

You're a genius! When can we catch more shows? Do you have any of your old shows available?

honestly, you may have been the funniest person i've ever see. I was laughing so hard I woke up my girlfriend.

If i owned a big TV company your show would be on 24/7!! I have never laughed so hard for so long, it's awesome. Can't wait for the next one, me and my friends will be talkin about it for a week! lol...

How can I get a copy of tonight's episode? It was the funniest thing I've seen in years. Thank you.

I hope you know you have the best show in the history of the planet!

I was wondering if I could maybe get your Autograph...It would mean alot...I know a ton of kids at my skool that love your show too....They are always talking in your voice and going crazy..

you have the best show ever, you are the best white rapper in the world!!!

It was so beautiful that I had tears in my eyes. Let's just say I was moved.

I think your show displays a VERY intelligent and socially conscience realistic view of the world and you do it in a very original and very artistic way.

NOBODY HAS DONE WHAT YOU ARE DOING. Keep it up.

i love your show. it is the most excellent thing in all of televisionland.

My name is Lauren and let me begin by saying you are one of the finest displays of unconventional genius I've seen in a long time.
