Sundance Update: Adam Elliot video letters

Hello, I'm up here at Sundance. Tis fun. The Sundance folks decided to do a "video letter" exchange between Academy - Award winning filmmaker Adam Elliot and I. Adam has a feature stopmotion film at Sundance, which opened the festival. The film is about two people, a man and a little girl, who are pen - pals. So Adam and I sent these video letters back and forth to each other prior to the festival, sort of mimicking the theme of his film, then they recorded us meeting for the first time at the festival.

Interesting idea! And it was fun. Adam is a very nice fellow. Here's links to the videos... check em' out! The first ones were a bit akward, but as we got further into the "letters" we loosened up a bit, they actually get pretty funny. There's some further insight into both of our films, as well.

They are about 2 minutes each.

Also, I'm not doing any 3 - word movie review while at Sundance... too many movies here! Maybe will review some later. Have fun, comrades...

More weird ebay finds

I have recently deemed myself and ebay search guru. Basically I sometimes spend way to much time scrounging on ebay finding bizarre things, that are usually too expensive for me to buy, but fun to look at. Here's some recent discoveries...

Licorice Box

Russian Wind-Up toy

Pirate and Tiger-Thing mugs


Wind-Up Scary German Baby


Black Chef buddies


There's plenty more where these came from. Some are still for sale by the way... Don't get bit by the ebay bug, though. Snap...

I actually recently bought a set of audio cassette tapes by my favorite commercial evangelical preacher, Bob Larson. Which may soon be the subject of my next "Precious Joke" podcast... stay tuned.
