Quick update just finished helping Luis Shoot a video to ask people to get tested to be a possible kidney donor. The video will hopefully be up within a week at his page. (check out more about this here)
I've been keeping a production blog after every shoot over at http://proofalist.blogspot.com/ So if you're interested please subscribe to the RSS feed for that blog (or goto the blog itself to use the google/blogger follow option) Also you can help Luis and I both (and not financially)

The more people that endorse the project, the more people that will see it - and when the video come out the more people that will hopefully get tested to be a kidney donor.
We've reformatted, added a community for artists and writers as well as a wikipedia Please join community and if you're a published artist or poet feel free to enter yourself in the wiki.
Currently I'm archiving the old files to he new site, as well as listing new stuff.
I don't know if that really exists, but it should and this should be it.
Shit's been going down in bucketfuls and I'm beyond handling it right now.
It's like the walls are caving in right now, and all I want to do is let them.
I could start listing things, making the case for why I should have the right to be in an utterly depressed state. All in all it's a pile of things on an already existing pile and I'm almost more depressed about being depressed then any individual thing.
This blog entry in itself makes me want to vomit.
I was hoping by writing I might come to some conclusion but apparently I'm not ready to really talk about things in a public forum yet. Awesome.
So now that you've read all this, ignore it, move on. Don't comment.
I'm going to start taking a look at my various projects that I work on daily/weekly/whenever and pick 5 to concentrate on - number 1 being The Documentary.
I'm going to sit down and import all the footage I've shot so far (6 days worth) and put up some behind the scenes clips and pictures as I go.
I'll also be putting up blog entries up on http://proofalist.blogspot.com/ so please follow that blog. You can also join Indiegogo and help support the project by hitting these:

And on that note I'm going to go work on things for the Doc.

It's been a crazy year, and an odd start to the new year. I'm not working right now so I have plenty of time to retool old projects and create new layouts, plot and plan, etc etc.
So I'm in talks with stickam to find a new time slot for my web show, an earlier slot, and slot with more potential traffic. A slot where people can comfortably hide behind their cubicle walls and throw me on while the boss isn't looking. So look out for that. It's kind of funny, we get about 20,000 viewers in the course of an hour now, and sometimes I get bummed when it only hits 16,000. (my youtube videos are lucky to even come cloe to 16k usually what an odd world of statistics this internet is).
In the mean time I've been focusing on making things prettier, more interesting and just generally having more content for when I'm not live.
check out the new layout at http://failpire.ning.com/ Check out the random web finds on our Tumblr! not to mention the hundreds of pictures and videos created and uploaded from members on our ning.
Speaking of members as a part of all the new changes we've come up with an idea for a new segment.
We're going to start doing 'Featured Member Shout Outs', you can already see it being implimented on the Ning. But we're going to start featuring a member profile on the show itself.
So if you're an artist, photographer, musician, video maker etc • sign up - (it's just like a more intimate version of myspace or facebook) • fill out your profile, • upload pictures, videos, songs, etc • and bamn you're on your way to being featured to our viewers.
Here's the first song from last Friday's show, just in time for the Holidays VK Lynne with 'Salvation in the Skies' and a little shout out to a certain aussie.
