The Star Wars Uncut site I designed has given birth to a full-length film. Apparently it is the best one ever made! Click through to New York Mag article.

disturbing things on my walk in the park: 1. cement case with “i am here” written on it. 2. open, full suitcase in trashcan. 3. cellulite.
i ordered a dog tag for Max with my address on it, a custom tag set in a collar. the company sent it to the wrong address.
I’d like to introduce my new dog, Max the minpin. He is 3 years old from a rescue shelter and seems pretty happy to be sitting on my lap as I am posting this.
