One morning I was cooking some sausage. One of them
came to life. I was afraid to eat that one after I finished making the video. Sadly I missed the first 2 minutes when the
sausage was rolling even faster. The strangest part of the story was when I posted this online and found that others had the
same experience.
Mr. Mendoza's Toaster
This is the story of my toaster which was given to me by my parents.
It is a national treasure. Watch the video (and listen) to get the entire story.
Tomorrow Never Knows This film (Super 8 film) was made by Mr. Mendoza when he was in college at
Southern Illinois University. The star is first Steve (the one with the Uncle that was a Hitler Youth) and then Rich Balabuszko.
Also appearing are Beth Motzfeldt, Trayse Hayes and Dawn Bolgoni.
Mr. Mendoza and Snoop Dogg Mr. Mendoza was driving home from work one day when he saw Snoop Dogg
in the parking lot of VIP records. So he pulled over and got out his Eastsidaz CD and his video camera.
Weird Chicago Stuff Here is stuff that would be weird to Californian people but not Chicago people.
A White Castle menu (home of sliders). We have a lightning bug (firefly). We also have a Chicago tamale. I grew up thinking
this was a real tamale until my Grandmother (who made a lot of tamales) explained to me what a real one was. I still like
these fake gross ones better. I live in Los Angeles now and can't find them here, not even at the Portillo's they
opened up out here.
San Pedro Coach Gone Wild This is the sort of stuff I am always looking for but never get
- this time I did. Watch the opposing coach (from San Pedro High) pick up a helmet and throw it in the direction of the Cheerleaders.
What a dope.
King Mendoza This video is very short. It is used in our role playing of the French Revolution.
The class is divided into the Nobility, Clergy and the 3rd Estate. I play the role of the King and this is my way of reminding
the kids that I am the King - thank you.
Civil War Documentary I made this in 6th grade so give me a break.
