Puppetry, cartooning, making short films, found art, obscure theater, films, bar crawling. Heck -- I guess I should just be shameless and post my URL like everyone else. Check out Melonpool!
Music
Whatever's on the radio with the least amount of ads. I like 'em peppy.
Movies
DVDs/videos I watch all the time: Donny Darko, Back to the Future, Ferris Bueller, Blues Brothers, Star Wars (the original, anyway), even Star Treks, King Pin (the bowling one), South Park movie, The Love Bug, The Ring, The Frighteners, Throw Momma From the Train, A Christmas Story, Toy Story I/II. I'm sure there more, I just have to go back to Fry's.
Television
Lost, Gilligan's Island (I like islands, I guess), Futurama, Simpsons, The Dick Van Dyke Show
Books
Mysteries (I've read just about every Sherlock Holmes story), Sci-fi (I'm a sucker for a good Time Travel story), Humor (even to the point of writing four of my own)
Heroes
Charles Schulz, Bill Watterson, Groucho Marx, Sherwood Schwarz
About me:
I'm a puppet builder by trade and a graphic designer by necessity (Damn you, stock art)! Sometimes I still draw, but as a cartoonst, I'm more-or-less retired. I probably know more about 60s-70s TV than just about anyone. Test me!
Who I'd like to meet: More people that understand that it's not the end goal that's the most important thing most of the time ... it's getting there.
Video documentation of a performance piece by my friend Nate Kassel who rode around on his bike slapping high-fives to people who were attempting to hail taxi cabs in the streets of NYC. Enjoy!

About CCIFF: "Our festival board members consist of top industry professionals, as well as Oscar-winning writers and producers. Each and every submission is carefully screened and is not only a candidate for festival exhibit, but is also considered for in-house production."
LOL! As stupid as it was, I can't help but laugh every time I watch that Tropic Thunder clip. Funny, a lot of people keep asking me what I thought of the movie but we actually saw "Zohan" and just passed by the display. Although, I've been hearing "Kung-Fu Panda" was good despite how bad the previews looked to me. Have you seen it?
