PITTSBURGHIA - Visual love letter to my fair city, filmed on Super 8 in Fall 2011.  Soundtrack and title influenced by the recent hype over Pittsburgh being dubbed the new hip city over Portland (see previous posts here and here).

We Used To Be Friends - The Dandy Warhols

Isn’t it weird when you’re no longer friends with your best friends?  Saw a photo tonight which forced me to listen to this song.  Strange sensation…

Portlandia, your 15 minutes are up. Long live Pittsburgh - Arts Post - The Washington Post - follow up to previous post, pretty much everyone in the Burgh has read this by now, but I’m posting it for anyone else doubting out there.  My city rocks.

Touch of Evil: Cinematic Villainy From the Year’s Best Performers - Interactive Feature - NYTimes.com — I am loving these.  Similar to what they did last year.  The Mia Wasikowska one is my favorite, and I’m not usually a fan of her.  Still doesn’t beat James Franco seducing himself, though
