I ate an OSTRICH BURGER for dinner. Seriously. With caramelized onions and feta cheese, on a ciabatta bun. I forgot to take a picture (sorry).

We saw Tim & Eric Awesome Tour. It was very entertaining. It's one thing for them to dress up in skintight outfits and act like asses on youtube or whatever, and it's quite another thing to see them do it in front of 300 people! The venue made it a bit hard to see (really low stage + tall people in front), but it was good overall.

Oddly enough, we observed that it was the same types of people at Tim & Eric as we would ordinarily see at an indie comics-type show, like MoCCA or this weekend's Stumptown (note: we won't be there). Hip nerds and nerdy hipsters. Someone even recognized me and said something about Scott Pilgrim, or else I was hallucinating.

Edgar is in Toronto right now. If you see him, say hello. Maintain a respectful distance. Holster all firearms. What is he doing there? I have no idea! I can't be there because I'm immigrating and if I leave the U.S. right now they'd never let me back in.

I also bought a bicycle last night. It was only 300 bucks, and it's the nicest bike I've ever owned. (Actually, that's not strictly true... I had this awesome neon-orange mountain bike in high school. I think my brother took it out and got it stolen while I was in California in 2001. It was the purple replacement bike my parents picked up that was the only crappy bike I've ever owned, I guess.) I am looking forward to riding it everywhere!

Just noticed this one, a little interview with Edgar Wright where they kind of tricked him into talking about Scott Pilgrim a bit, on CHUD.com, here. This is the most he's said about it publicly, which is kind of exciting! woooooOOooOOOOo! (The interviewer, Devin Faraci, also interviewed me at MoCCA and is a really nice guy. I also communicated with him telepathically at this really loud fabulous party in San Diego, telepathy being the only method of communication available at the time.)

For those tracking film stuff, our friend Edgar Wright's current picture HOT FUZZ has an in-progress website at Working Title, complete with the promise of continuing video blogs. One video blog is up there now. IT'S THE FUTURE!



For those NOT keeping score, Edgar Wright is also working with Michael Bacall on a possible future SCOTT PILGRIM film, which, sadly, I can't really talk about. Ha ha ha! I can confirm that the film is still unconfirmed, but we should find out more official news by May.
