Ok, not the best pics. My bad, especially to the folks who'll be bummed they're photographed. That's Conrad, he wrote a little something about the Obama campaign, he's the fella on the upper photo left. Arm extended. He's married to Mr Obama's sister. The dude with the menu out is Anderson, who's part of the Hawaii Int'l Film Fest. I can't begin to the remember the dude's name, but he's part of...
Ok, not the best pics. My bad, especially to the folks who’ll be bummed they’re photographed. That’s Conrad, he wrote a little something about the Obama campaign, he’s the fella on the upper photo left. Arm extended. He’s married to Mr Obama’s sister. The dude with the menu out is Anderson, who’s part of the Hawaii Int’l Film Fest. I can’t begin to the remember the dude’s name, but he’s part of the UH, South East Asia studies department. The woman is a filmmaker from Indonesia. That’s Jodi Long she has a crazy imdb list. She also has a film, “Long Story Short” about her family that’s making some rounds. To her right is Risa Morimoto who’s film Wings of Defeat was in GR.

Dirty Hands - second screening at the HIFF. Yes, I got to intro the film. It's now the third time I've done this for the film, and each time, I try and do it different. I try and tell a story, or what the film means to me (which keeps changing), and so on. It's hard to capture the millions of things I think about the film.

Dirty Hands – second screening at the HIFF. Yes, I got to intro the film. It’s now the third time I’ve done this for the film, and each time, I try and do it different. I try and tell a story, or what the film means to me (which keeps changing), and so on. It’s hard to capture the millions of things I think about the film. It all races through my head, and whatever comes out in the 1 minute I’m talking is the best I can do. Pretty cool to have the name of the film in simple digital lights at a theater. David signs shirts after the screening and the Q and A. The Question and Answer sessions are funny. They’re brutally honest and most of the time, it’s like listening to two old friends talk. If you’re in, you’ll understand it better, but people start laughing anyway. Desiring God. David reads no books. So we’ll see what happens. Maybe he’ll get something from it. Merch sales. People dig the shirts, the pillow is another story. They sell slower, but they are really cool. The image on the pillow is “stacks” which is a design Dave did, that fits the film perfectly. It means a lot if you see the film. The pillow is surprisingly a perfect commemorative item. I like the fact that Harry is also drawing and signing autographs. Yes, he’s part of the game.

Had to show you what my early mornings at 7am look like. Saw a sea hare. Maybe 1 foot long cruising along. This is the way to start your day before interviews, and stuff like that. If I could do this all the time, I'd never lose.
If you don't hit the beach in the morning... hit the ramen.Yotteko Ya - This is a great spot for ramen. Part of a chain of 100 of these in Japan, this is another one of...
