Hi Elisa,

OMG, that’s you! That’s so funny. I found that Boston Globe article while doing research for the presentation and I loved the picture. Some coincidence that Colin tried to make a connection between us.

Sorry we didn’t get a chance to meet. Maybe next year!

Welcome Texas. Hope you have a great time in the only OTHER city in Texas worth living in.
If you come to San Antonio for some reason, look me up.

If you think about the ways in which one can be more than one kind of bitch, the list is really much longer. Like, pajamas outside, geeken bitches that go to a dirty school.

Have a great trip!

The Room is indeed genius. I would recommend the rifftrax to use with the movie, but it doesn’t really need them. My favorite aspect was that literally every scene had the same establishing shot of the Golden Gate bridge. Filmmaking at its finest.

Yeah, I know I know, I’m not “VT Official” anymore…one thing I do remember also is that we were both pretty nonplussed by FOTC…it was pretty “meh.” Who knew that they would take over the world?

And actually, now that I think of it Jay Craven premiered Disappearances that year too so he and some VT film commission folks were there as well. I’m old and my memory isn’t what it once was.

I tell people about that Comedians of Comedy show all the time. What a great line-up! And you are from VT but you were coming from Cali on that trip, so I didn’t include you in the “Vermonters” category.

Um, I know I didn’t go to the film and interactive part, but are you forgetting that we TOTES hung out @ SXSW in 2006? We went to see Patton Oswalt and the Comedians of Comedy and saw a new-on-the-scene Aziz Ansari and a before-they-had-a-hit-tv-show Flight of the Conchords! w00t!!! (wait do people still say “w00t!”?)
