Dear Nick, It was one of the days this summer that was neither raining nor hotter than Hades in August. I was taking the morning news in my usual way: reading The New York Times, watching Bloomberg and listening to NPR simultaneously. If you haven’t tried this technique, I highly recommend it. It’s like being […]
By Ali Walsh What’s a better way to spend a Saturday night than to watch a group of women slam into each other on roller skates? To my surprise after my very first experience watching the Old Money Honeys v. the Sakonnet River Rats (the winners of the night), not much. I walked into the […]
Oh my God what a time I’ve had so far. Day Three was unbelievable! It’s been mind-blowing; I can’t believe all that I have seen, heard, and experienced! I don’t even think these blog posts can truly convey the scale of it all. There was just too much to see and do—I’d need ten of […]

My Comic-Con buddy, Joel, crashed at my place so we could get […]

Each participating team randomly selects a genre to follow and everyone involved must include the same character, prop, and line of dialogue in their film. This year, they had to include a plumber, a […]
