Some Big News - Charity / Honda - Please Read!

|
Well hello my friends. This is quite an update, and looking out of my hotel window here in Roswell NM, the aliens can feel it to. And man are there a lot of aliens here.

So, why am I in Roswell?

I got a gig for Honda shooting an episodic webisode driving across country with another guy in their new Honda Insight Hybrid, which is pretty electro-pimp. I got Honda to agree to let me blog / twitter and flickr it IN CHARACTER, and I am asking all you to be a part of my journey.

I invite you to join me on this cross country drive - I update the twitter all day as things happen and the blog is where I get all thinkey and my inner Kerouac comes out. Kerouac is a small muskrat I travel with. No it isn't.

is the fake blog. My travelogue (via my character Leebo) is on the left, and on the right you can access the twitter feed and the flickr feed too. If you wanna go right to flickr and see my photostream from the trip so far you can do that here :
