Have a great weekend.

Is It Just Me or…

…does everyone stop washing their hands while the towels are in the washer?

…do all guys worry about how feminine their fingernails look?

…are other LOST fans worried that their Nerd IQ won’t be high enough to comprehend the ending?

…is everyone relieved that they don’t have to donate organs to family members because they are adopted?

…do you smell bananas?

There’s no such thing as a free vacation…

… or is there? Actually, the answer is no, there is no such thing as a free vacation – but you get the idea, right? It’s a joke. A joke about stuff being free is just barely ok, but when you pay for something, it makes you feel good.

Kinda like donating to WBEZ.
[thinly veiled hint, there]

Good Morning.

It’s been awhile since we talked LOST.

SO first, I’d like to give props to Sophie:

I just can’t get enough of these mash-ups of current kick-ass shows with past either kick-ass or kitschy shows.

In other LOST news – Aaron is a big deal – just watch and Ben better not try to redeem himself. He’s the perfect villain, and I don’t want him to go all “Vader” on us.

Contrary to what you might think – this is NOT a video of a Dance-Off…

The world’s smartest Schadenfreude.net Reader poses no more threat to me than does its smartest termite.

Good Morning

No such thing as a free lunch…

At least where Chicago Public Radio is concerned! CPR hired us to write/direct/shoot/produce/art direct/cast/envision/market/edit/set build and deliver these shorts showing people the failures of getting something for free…

Sure, we may have gotten Steve Delahoyde to do the shooting, editing, a tad of the directing and most of the art direction, but the rest of it is alllll us.

Except for set building – we just used my office. And the art direction… the rest of it was decided by what props my co-workers decided to leave hanging around after 5.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT – we did everything else!

Enjoy – and give money to WBEZ.
