Since word just dropped on a release date for Batman 3 (fingers crossed it’s 3D (not really what do I look like …?  okay sound like… okay well yeah 3D is dumb we all know that Roger Ebert thanks))).  I decided to post a bonus podcast taken from one of the many Zack, Blaine, and Ian discussions that don’t make it into a regular podcast.  Enjoy, this has much more Commando discussion then Batman though.

Posted just a few minutes before the end of my birthday.  Horrah I got a rejection from the SxSW film fest today for a present.  So I’ll probably post the said rejected short online soon.   I did a little too much work outside in the rain today, so I feel kind of bad.  I’ll just say it’s the end of the beginning.

Would you stay?  Reconciling humans and machines.  Celebration of the flesh.  An exercise in diplomacy.
