1. New job (with very long-term potential)
2. Get back into Muay Thai training at Mike Miles Muay Thai & Kickboxing LTD
   
3. Tighten up code at Cinephile Magazine (perhaps a redesign?)
4. Consistently record & release Cinephile Spoilers podcast episodes
5. Review two films per week for Cinephile Magazine
6. Read one New Yorker magazine per week (they’re coming in faster than I can finish them)
7. Read one novel per month (or quicker)
8. Manage the thousands of digital photos I’ve accumulated over the years (edit, print, organize)
9. Develop a seamless backup solution for my digital content (while the thought of off-site backup is appealing, its practice is simply too slow and cumbersome)
10. Take over Safi Inc. duties I currently outsource (accounting, annual minutes, etc.) to save money, and to learn about the processes
11. Decide whether I’m a Mac or Windows person :) I can be both, right?

Hey all, as you’ve probably noticed my blog posts are becoming less and less frequent. I’m very busy with school and volunteering, but a lot of my time has also been devoted to guerrilla marketing a pet project of mine called Cinephile Magazine. I’ve just completed designing a new revision of the site, and we’ve also started a podcast called Cinephile Spoilers. We have three episodes under our belt and will continue to release a new episode every week on the latest movie release(s). You can follow Cinephile Magazine on Twitter at twitter.com/cinephilemag, and subscribe to Cinephile Spoilers via iTunes here.

So while I’ll continue to keep this blog live, don’t expect updates to come every day as they once were. In the meantime, you can follow me on Twitter at twitter.com/literallyfresh, or at Cinephile Magazine occasionally contributing reviews, but mainly behind the scenes tweaking the site, editing and publishing reviews, and producing, editing, and opining on our podcast.

From the ShamWow to the Slap Chop, Vince Offer is a one-of-a-kind spokesperson. Heck, this guy could convince me of buying crack cocaine. But who this marfan-looking enigma? From Wikipedia:

In 1999 Offer released the Underground Comedy Movie to scathing and extremely negative reviews. Lawrence Van Gelder of the New York Times described the movie as “a series of sketches built around subjects like masturbation, defecation, alienation, urination, necrophilia, voyeurism, casual brutality and mockery of the unfortunate.” He added that Offer “makes the common mistake of equating the recognition of comic potential for comedy itself. For the successful, talent bridges the gap, but here it is absent.” DVDs of the film were marketed via television infomercial.

Read his (very brief) biography here. And if you haven’t seen either infomercial before, check them out below.
