Vimeo films

First off, I've uploaded my first video to Vimeo. Made it the other day for the AREA+Playcube screening, but now want to make more shorts like this and put them in a collection about Beacon Hill. Here it is:

Julianne Moore on 30 Rock

I'm a noob when it comes to 30 Rock, so I hadn't seen Julianne Moore on the show yet. When her character started talking, at first I thought maybe she had a speech impediment, then I thought maybe she was deaf, but then I realized that she's supposedly doing a Boston accent.

It's the worst one I've ever heard.

Boston people, wouldn't you agree?

Paranoid

Ok I know this word is overused nowadays, but I have a tendency to be quite paranoid. I'll walk down a street in Boston and envision some crazy man randomly attacking me, or perhaps I'll be on the T and suddenly a person opens fire.

Instead of seeming crazy, I can now justify my fears of normal-looking people actually being psychopaths.

In Boston, a second-year BU med school student is being charged with murder and robbery. He allegedly murdered a woman in the Boston Marriott Copley Place and robbed another at the Westin Copley Place.

Read the Times article for more info

He looks perfectly "normal," just a 22-year-old. He was engaged to his college girlfriend, and had no criminal record. Either this means he has secretly led a alternate life as a murderer, or he has simply gone crazy. The sad part is he might have been crazy his whole life but nobody knew--he went undiagnosed.

But isn't that how all crazy people are?

Moral of the story: beware of Craigslist.
