This made my day.

Let the Right One In

Posted On October 31st, 2008.

You should find the one threater in your entire city showing this movie and see it immediately. Check the trailer out here, but trust me when I say the trailer doesn’t do the film much justice. I am no expert when it comes to vampire movies, but this was the best I’ve seen, and one of the better ones I’ve seen at a movie theather recently period.

Unfortunately, since it’s subtitled, it won’t get much play in the States. If you need more convincing you can check out the reviews over at Rotten Tomatoes, where it got a 90% rating from critics, the only negative rating coming from some tool at Entertainment Weekly who would rather be watching Highschool Musical.

Where have I been?

Posted On October 21st, 2008.

Well it’s been a minute since I posted on the ole blog here, I’ve been busy with my new job at Neilsen IAG as well as freelancing on a couple of other projects and I continue to work with Galison on their email campaigns and some other general stuff since they’ve always been so good to me.

Add to that the fact that we recently just moved into a new place in Brooklyn and it’s a recipe for having a lot going on but not much time to write about it. The original idea of the blog was to help me get work anyway, and now that I have more work than I know what to do with, I guess I’ve kind of drifted away from it a little bit.

That being said, I will still find time to write here because it’s always good to share how much of a geek I am with the world (and by world I mean the 3 people that actually read this thing) and I am actually going to get back to working on a little side project I had been cooking up, more on that later.

Happy Monday

My Honda Ruckus

Posted On June 26th, 2008.

I posted a while ago about wanting a Honda Big Ruckus, well I found a community of owners of the regular Ruckus at Totalruckus.com, asked a bunch of questions and learned about what is capable with the thing and decided to go with the small one. I love it, and I’ve already dumped way too much into fixing it up the way I like.

So here’s just a quick picture of it, and I actually did a post about getting around NYC on a scooter for the Galison/Mudpuppy blog, The Galiwag. I will have a more detailed post about my new addiction another day.

AD: Test Your Awareness

Posted On June 26th, 2008.

Another funny ad. The great thing about this is that although it is so simple, and low budget it manages to engage the viewer while still being humorous. I won’t ruin it, but I was actually proud of myself when I got the number right only to end up laughing at myself at the end.

This is another British ad, made to bring awareness to the safety of cyclists, after a whole day of driving my scooter around Manhattan, I think we could use a few ads here as well for bikers in general.

Singing In The Rain (Remix), VW Ad

Posted On June 19th, 2008.

One of my favorite ads, though I may have posted it before. I think I only saw it once on TV, but every couple of months I get the urge to watch it again. The song in the ad, by the way, is by Mint Royale, an electronica duo turned solo act based out of Manchester, England.
