If they did not show movies on airplanes, I would have seen almost NONE. This is bad.

Television:

I make television. I don't watch much of it. Unless it is Sci Fi or Animated. This is also bad.

Books:

If technical trade mags are considered books...then YES.

Heroes:

My favorite one was "Hogan" but Kinch was pretty funny too.

This is me offering my humble rendition of a song "Slang" that Jaco Pastorius used to perform live.

This is a video TEST for Amanda Carr's upcoming video for "If You Could See Me Now" from her latest release "SOON" the final video will be produced this fall and release by mid October (hopefully).
