A Month Past

Hey everyone,
First I want to apologize for the deficiency in posts as of lately. In the last couple weeks I have been busy organizing many of my upcoming film projects; a lot I can't mention because we're still in negotiations; but there are some promotional materials I can reveal to the public. Below I have posted the first three minutes of my directorial debut, "Suspicion", which I also produced and wrote.

I've also been working on a lot of screenplays and writing many literary pieces expressing my current state of being, you can see some of them HERE. I will be posting more on the site soon.

My film company's website is currently undergoing a large amount of maintenance, we're re-fabricating the whole site in a new, hip way, which should be ready for public viewing in the new year to come.

A special announcement I'd like to make is that I will be in Orlando, Florida for New Years this year celebrating at the Hard Rock Hotel. If any of my readers or subscribers plan on being there at the time, let me know, we can meet-up, maybe spend the night at Citywalk, or the day at Islands of Adventures!

Got Vintage? (A Store for Women)

Are you a woman who can't seem to find great vintage clothes anywhere? Do you hate the unknown pasts of the apparel in a thrift shop? "ontheprowlvintage.com/" offers excellent selections of apparel and they sell both on EBAY and ETSY. Checkout their official website HERE. Their ebay and etsy accounts are linked above, it appears that their etsy store is offline temporarily but will be back up very soon. Enjoy the store!

Datebook: 11.01.09

November can either be both a gloomy or a happy time in ones-life. Family can sometimes drive anyone crazy, ESPECIALLY with Thanksgiving around the corner.

- This year try to do something different. If you host Thanksgiving every year then pass the torch onto other relatives, no particular family members should have to hold Thanksgiving every year.

- If you've yet to hold Thanksgiving at your place then invite everyone this year, make things interesting and fun for everyone by starting a tradition (my family watched "Plains, Trains, and Automobiles" every year). The third alternative is to take a trip and claim it's business, I recommend Madrid, Oviedo, or Barcelona, Spain for this time of year.

- This month there are A LOT of big album releases, the list is as follows: John Mayer's "Battle Studies", "Jason Mraz's Beautiful Mess - Live on Earth", and Lady Gaga's "The Fame Monster".

- Twilight New Moon releases 11/20 and is estimated to make at least $30million from midnight showings alone!

- Meet the Filmmakers: Wednesday November 4 at 5:30pm catch-up with Brant Serson, writer and director of the upcoming film "Splinterheads". Friday November 6 at 7pm you can get the chance to meet and talk with Jason Reitman as he will be speaking about his new film "Up In The Air", and at the same time on Wednesday November 11 you can catch Wes Anderson, Meryl Streep, and Jason Schwartzman discussing the new film "Fantastic Mr. Fox". All events listed above will be at the Apple Store in SoHo.

- Stores: In the past month I have discovered several great new stores online: Context, Gas, Topman, and SSense. Also here are two stores I've been going to very often recently: Uniqlo and Zara. If you are looking to buy apparel at more affordable prices and enjoy vintage clothing be sure to check-out Etsy, I bought a pair of brown leather boots for $45 here and have worn them many times (I also bought a wool hand-knit scarf, a unique custom-sewn hoodie, two pairs of pants, and more!).

- Reading: This past month I picked-up "The Modern Gentleman" by Phineas Mollod & Jason Tesauro and it has been quite resourceful citing different types of etiquette and how to handle yourself in certain social situation (i.e. bachelor party's, dinner party's, etc.). I also picked-up a leatherbound copy of the full collection of "The Chronicles of Narnia" series by C.S. Lewis for only $20. Thirdly I've also been reading a lot of "The Economist", an excellent periodical magazine that I receive weekly and which keeps me updated on all the latest worldly affairs.

- GQ: Once again this fall GQ has decided to do another series of "GQRules", in which Style-Guy Glenn O'Brien teaches men through short one-minute videos how to dress this fall (he does mention affordable pieces).

- Final Note: A lot of people have elected to not receive the flu vaccination, WIRED has done three articles on the matter, check them out here: Article One, Article Two, and Article Three, and the writer of Article One wrote feedback.
