About Me

At a recent estate sale, filmmaker/critic Luke Y. Thompson of LYTrules.com came into possession of a box containing old documents and a digital camera marked "Property of Batterton & James." Contained in the camera's memory were some short movies -- prototype commercials that never aired, featuring an accountant who probably wasn't qualified to make them.
The time has come to show them to the world. There are ten in all, and we'll be gradually adding them as quickly as we can convert them to the correct format.

My Interests

Accounting, TV dinners, public radio

I'd like to meet:

Someone who feels these commercials have educated them vis-a-vis a product they might otherwise have been unfamiliar with.

Music:

I find elevator music appropriately soothing.

Movies:

I thoroughly enjoyed the Batterton and James employee training video.

Books:

The 2001 Tax Code (Unabridged).

Heroes:

Heroes stand out in a crowd, which is a trait I dislike.

For some reason, the myspace uploaded version gives short shrift to a caption at the end that needs to be read, so I've deleted it for now.
