Day 155: Be like Thomas and DO SOMETHING

I'm not lying to you, as soon as you get done with this post, get off the internet and go DO something! I want to start a new movement centered on getting people off of the computer. Be a human, not a user. Be a real person. Be a doer, not a watcher.

Like Thomas.

For example, Thomas can be viewed DOING SOMETHING on VH1 Storytellers at 4:40.
He's in the front fow with Al, who's wearing a t-shirt with Spencer on it. All three of them are real people doing things away from the internet.



And just to prove that Thomas actually doing stuff isn't just a one time thing, here's another example. This time, you can see him in this week's episode of Heroes.


Time: 41:30. It's in the last segment. Tear.

That's it. Now go and get something done. What would Thomas think if he saw you just sitting here?

Day 141: Walk around town

I took a walk.

I was doing my laundry, and I had a camera. I found all these views right around the corner from Champion Donuts. And there was a big hill.






Let me just blow the horn for a second. But I want to blow it in a really triumphant way, not in a 'timeout' way. And not that these photos were that great, but that LA, or wherever you are, is ripe with surprises. If there's a path, there's an off-the-beaten-path. There are so many gems in this town. Lately I have often thought, "I lived in ))))) for ~~ years, why didn't I explore it like this?"

Also, we're announcing a major show today. Get ready. Set. Twist your fist. We're playing at LA's legendary Viper Room in December. Here are all the screaming details.
