And hello Brooklyn!

The move went well, although it was hot as heck on Friday. Four hired
movers and nine hours later all of our stuff (including both
turntables and all our wedding gifts) made it into the new place.

We've spent the weekend setting up and enjoyingbal the space and
especially our door.

Here's a shot if amanda from Friday night popping some champagne for
our first moved in toast!

Hope to have everyone over soon!

This is the 189th post on Stupidfresh.com, so let's make it a good one.

You probably know it's been a busy couple of months for the Lip. Amanda and I have been working tirelessly on getting a new place in Brooklyn, and just yesterday we sealed the deal! The apartment is great, and were looking forward to giving it a bit of TLC as we put our own feel into it. It's been a crazy process and we're happy to be moving out of the world of listings, countless phone calls and lawyers and transition into something simpler and more creative like choosing paint colors!

We leave tomorrow night for France where we'll celebrate our one-year anniversary. We'll be walking from town to town in Provence for about a week or so, then kicking it in Aix-en-Provence, and finishing with 3 days in Paris. We were married on Bastille Day, so I guess we'll let the Parisians celebrate with us while we're there!

Simply put - I'm feeling great.

I saw this video online today and it is getting me so excited for my travels. It's a simple idea, but it was executed brilliantly. And while the name on this is Matt, I assure you it isn't me.

Where the Hell is Matt? (2008) from Matthew Harding on Vimeo.

Original post from Boingboing:

Matthew Harding spent 14 months visiting 42 countries in order to produce "Where the Hell is Matt?", a four-and-a-half minute video featuring Harding (and anyone else he could rope into it) doing an incredibly silly, high-energy dance in some of the most breathtaking scenery around the world. This may be the best four minutes and twenty-eight seconds of your week.

See you all in a few weeks. Much love - Much lip.

Done deal!

Yesterday, July 1st, we closed on our new apartment in Brooklyn. With
our new excitement we took a bottle of proseco and some glasses to our
new home and had our first (of many) toasts!

We couldnt be happier. Thanks to everyone for your love, advice and
support through the process. Can't wait to have you over soon!

Speed Director

2008-06-07T15:57:00.003-05:00

Today Amanda, Jeff, Rebecca and myself participated in a game at the Come Out and Play Festival. We joined in on a game called Speed Director. In short the idea for the game is to use NYC as our backdrop to recreate 10 famous movie scenes in still photos. We were given a list of 20, but only had to do 10 and were encouraged to utilize people who were not on our team.

It was a fun and exhausting day - running around, crazy in the heat, trying to find the perfect prop or setting. What a blast!

The photos from all the teams are all being compiled on this website, which will be live after 8pm Sunday. In the meantime, our 10 shots are below - see if you can guess what movies we're trying to recreate! Click on one for a larger image.

Always good to see a familiar face in the airport. What up chris?

A great way to begin (really!)

I'm sitting on my plane waiting to take off for Dave's wedding in
Puerto Rico. To my happy surprise the display on my seat is scrolling
through Linux error messages!

This could be the mother load of public errors. Its happening on all
the screens. All the people are asking questions and are confused.

Ahh - organized chaos.

I mean if you are going to go through the trouble of getting rims for
your car, you're going to want the ones that say PLAYER all over them.

This is just fun to see

Darth Vader is an awesome harmonica player

2008-05-15T10:02:00.001-05:00

After not posting for some time, what better way to get back into the groove than this clip. Darth Vader plays harmonica - and nails it. Definitely wait until the 35 second marker - that's when it goes from good to great.
