Today I worked on a Halloweentime episode of the television show Ed.
I'm wearing a heavy brown coat and carrying a red gym bag in one angle of the scene when Stuckeybowl goes crazy, and in another angle, I'm in a pink polo, jumping to sparks and a flying ghost.

I'm in Washington, DC, for the Small Business Administration's 50th Anniversary Exposition. (Yes, Hurricane Isabel is starting to wreak havoc here!) I'm here with Yahoo! Small Business, manning a booth made over for me by Vern Yip of The Learning Channel's Trading Spaces.
I play the owner of Spoiled Rotten Vintage (well, it is my vintage clothing store, which I ran on the side for a couple years). I'm showing people about the benefits of running a store with Yahoo! Small Business. It's been fun so far! I have one more day of it.

Anyway,

Today I worked background on the film Stay with Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts.
I'm probably not seen in it, but if you look at a scene at Columbia University shot through a mailbox, I'm walking in all black, wearing a black fisherman's hat. Also, my back is to the camera as Ewan bicycles outside by me.
