Toronto Filmmakers on Road to Sundance

Project Direct is YouTube’s annual short film competition. The object of the competition is to create a short film incorporating Moviefone’s red phone and 2 other props that represent the most memorable films from the first 25 years of Sundance. By winning this competition the director and BFF will get to go to Sundance 2009 and meet with some big shot producers, have a fancy live screening, be promoted all over the internet (YouTube) and get some fast cash. This year, two dudes from Toronto, Jake Kovnat and Ben Goldenberg are in the TOP TEN! Their movie is called “White Collar Criminals” and I think it is pretty damn good. They shot the movie in three days in Toronto. Help represent our totally rad city by watching their movie and voting for it. Today is the last day to vote. Take a minute to help make a fellow Torontonian’s career dream come true!!

take off that dress and trade with me

My Auntie Edna was a lovely lady. She was frugal in the way you would stereotype most old school Jews to be. She made sure to make the most of what she had and use all the resources around. She used to have parties in her beautiful house often Sunday afternoons where she would invite all the ladies over to swap clothes. Today the BBC did a story about a trend sweeping the UK market that has been coined Swishing. This is exactly what Auntie Edna used to do. You can either buy, sell or swap. This is a great way to recycle, save money and have fun with friends or meet new ones. The rules are simple. Come over and one gently used item (or more) from your collection. Grab yourself a drink and shop around. Determine what item you want and where it is on the racks. Leave the racks as the Part Host counts down….3,2,1! Let the Swish begin! Grab the item you want before someone else and call it yours (depending on the predetermined buy-sell-swap arrangements). You successfully leave with a new item for the old item you arrived with. Check it out for yourself: VIDEO ON BBC NEWS UK I’ll be having a Frock Swap in the new year!Rummage through your closet ladies,its time to trade in your old jazz for new jazz!! ♥

Gotcha.

Something spooky was happening last night…Big spiders triumphant in the night crawling, creeping across the corridor on the crackling floor . I grasped my gadget and gladly grabbed the little bugger as he danced along my arm trying to get higher. I would not let him. I refused to have him in my head. I refused to let anyone knock me dead. His little legs dangled and danced as I tossed him into the night sky. What flight may take him soaring high? It is the wind. It is the moon. Little spider, I will see you soon. I love tattoos. Especially stick on ones.
