TRUE GRIT
I can’t express enough how much I endorse this movie. Go see it. The Coen Brothers knocked it out. It has a beautiful look, pitch perfect score, and character performances that just crush. I laughed harder than I have at any “comedy” in the last year. That said the film is also highly dramatic and tense. Hailee Steinfeld should certainly get a bunch of recognition from various...
Fuckin' Deja Vu and Shows this Weekend
Yeah, so…just passed through some pretty debilitating deja vu, getting my bearings!

Also, LAUGH.ROCK.REPEAT is coming up this Saturday. It’s five...

Finally, I booked a week of MC spots at the Skyline Comedy Cafe in Appleton Wisconsin for January 19th-22nd....

I know that everyone and their mother has a screenplay, in fact, many people’s mothers probably have development deals…anyway, I am just writing this blog post to remind all of my facebook friends (as well as any friends that they know who might need some sort of script or otherwise typed up bits of things for people to say and or do) that I do indeed write scripts. I...
F*CKING ROBOTS!!!
Alright,
I was listening to NPR this morning, and they were running a story on the Kinect, the new XBOX 360 peripheral that turns the people playing into the controllers for the game. The person they were interviewing (the story has not yet been posted online) said (after saying there could eventually be military applications for this tech), “it’s valuable for your computer to know...
