I worked on these shorts entitled 'Fool Such As I' this summer.
No, they didn't make their mark on youtube, but I really enjoyed doing them.



Wet Ones - if only this could be a 'real commercial' for Wet Ones!




Ditto for this and my favorite summer treat!

If you're keeping track, so far this year I am
(150-89, .628). That's not too bad. That jerk Dr. Z for Sports Illustrated is not even close to me (he also picked Miami in this year's Superbowl - BOGUS!)

So here are my week 17 picks, it's been fun doing this.

Thanks Julius!

Part of the HANGING WITH WADE IN HOBOKEN series
Here's the movie-short (#3) focusing on the banning of dogs.

Making this movie a 'WADE HIGHLIGHT OF 2006' is part of the 'CURB YOUR DOG, CLEAN IT UP HOBOKEN' AGENDA!

Here's a cool movie by a friend of mine, John Grady. What becomes of the once previously loved and cherished Christmas Trees after the holiday season?

See for yourself.

You may love them, you may hate 'em.
But it's my gift to you. My favorite Xmas videos.


U2 - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)


RUN DMC - Christmas in Holis


The Boss - Santa is Coming to Town

and my favorite

Bing "Not Sidney" Crosby and David Bowie - The Little Drummer Boy

Happy Holidays!

We wish you a merry Christmas!

Here's a Christmas story I wrote for Dan Kennedy's two years agoReallysmalltalk.com.

It's about my first Christmas away from my family.

THAT FIRST MIX TAPE.
Here's a movie short I made this year about a mix tape I made for my first girlfriend in NYC. She was on her way... and then gave it all up and moved back home to work in her family's pharmacy.

Merry CHRISTMAS!

This year TURNHERE.COM profiled me and my beloved HOBOKEN.

The video was shot in January 2006, and also features Greg V. and his big dog Zack.


Me talking baseball.


Greg.

(FUN FACT: I was a bit hungover during the shooting of this.)

MY STORY ABOUT BEING THE NBC PAGE FOR LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O'BRIEN.

A few years back, I was an NBC Page for Late Night With Conan O'Brien. Every day there was awesome! I had the opportunity to work with some great people.

Here's a story about my journey from being just a kid from New Hampshire to a PAGE in the NBC Page Program and my adventures with some of the 'Late Night Crew.'

I won The MOTH's 2006 Moth Grand Slam Championship of storytelling with this live performance at The Players' Club in NYC on November 1st.

I visited Stamford, CT last night to shoot some stuff for NBCSPORTS.COM for their fantasy football online show.

In Theo We Trust!

After watching this video I realize how sick of a pitcher this guy is.

Is it April yet?

In the next two weeks, I plan on posting a few of my favorite movies/performances I've put together this year for my blog. They deserve a second look.

They define the type of material I hope to offer in the future on a larger scale.

FAT BOY, YOU'RE A HERO!

BREAKING NEWS:
Good people. I haven't had a donut in a long time (a few months). But tomorrow... I'm gonna go to Dunkin Donuts, and I'm gonna get myself a chocolate frosted donut.

Still working hard here in LA. I can't believe how it's sunny every day here.

A big part of my day is the car ride to the venue of the big award show I am working on. It's nice because I can actually see what's going on outside in the real world. And that's great since I'm spending most of my time in a room with no window full of TV writers.

We drive by this car dealership that's named 'Felix The Cat.' And there's a big picture of Felix on the sign.

Felix the cat is one of my favorites.

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS:
-I had my first In and Out Burger (very good).
-Found out I know way too much about professional wrestling.
-I suck when it comes to my knowledge of Coen Brothers movies.
-I've had more bottles of FIJI Water in the past four days than I've ever had in my whole life.

BEAT L.A.!

BEAT L.A.!

I may be in L.A. now (for the week), but boy, did I love when this guy BEAT L.A. back in the 80s.

And now... the Celtics may suck, but I have my childhood memories.

LARRY LARRY, LARRY! The greatest basketball player ever.

(thanks M. Stein for reminding about Bird's b-day)

MORE HIGHLIGHTS:
-Almost got hit by a wine glass at dinner from a sky bar above our dining area.
-May have gotten food poisoning from California Pizza Kitchen.
-Sinuses still act up in Cali.
-People at Rite Aid are friendly.
-Sunny/smoggy day again.
-Miss Hoboken.
-the Staples Center is pretty big (when I drive by it).
-I think I saw Ray Davis of the Kinks today walking out Starbucks and lighting up a cigarette.

Can you find me in this movie short?

Part of my eye-wear and thinning hairline appear in this short.

BRAVO ME! BRAVO!

This is a classic!

NEW WADE L.A. Notes:
Great Hotel Room (fancy fancy)
Bad burrito (ugly ugly)
Nice Donut (jelly, jelly)
Good Bagel (creamy, creamy)
SMOG (lotta lotta)

Wade, has landed for a week of working hard.

What to report:
Slept on flight, woke up with a nice view of Grand Canyon.

May have seem the Rocky Mts, or might have been dreaming.

Had a friendly cab driver.
