Rude, Unethical, Etc. Revisited

Yikes! Be sure to pay close attention at 1:17 in this video. What you’ll see and what you’ll hear ought to blow your mind. It’s stunning. I suppose this could be a parody of clueless hipsters. I mean, how could anyone be so blind as to miss hypocrisy of this magnitude? For example, how can one edit [...]

It was something like “Your confidence makes them perform better.” I swear I would come close to tearing up at that point every time I watched the video. She told me [...]

The Trailer For My Documentary

Here’s the trailer for my upcoming (October 2012) documentary film I’d Rather Ride In Springfield. I hope the trailer conveys both the mirth and seriousness I’m bringing to this project. While trailer scenes are always cherry-picked, the Springfield scenes represent my actual experience riding around the urban core this morning between 7:00 and 9:30 a.m. [...]
