The Marconi Bros. is a funny new film hitting the film festival scene now. It just had a big premiere at SXSW and is an official selection at IFP. Not to shabby!

It stars Dan Fogler (Balls of Fury), John Pollito (Barton Fink, Miller's Crossing), Brandon Sexton (Boys Don't Cry) and is directed by a friend from high school, Mike Canzoniero. Most importantly, yours truly was an extra in the filming. Yeah that's me. I think.

Good luck Canz, I hope you find a major distributor soon!

Today on Lunch Hour Veg, Presidential candidate play lists.

There are hundreds of decent stock photos out there.
And thousands of truly bad ones.

Here's ten that rise to the top of the toilet.

Hey, not for nothing...but did anyone see this story about a guy having a kid?

To our neighbors, my wife, Nancy, and I don't appear in the least unusual. To those in the quiet Oregon community where we live, we are viewed just as we are -- a happy couple deeply in love. Our desire to work hard, buy our first home, and start a family was nothing out of the ordinary. That is, until we decided that I would carry our child.

No...not an alien, or scientist who stood too close to a radioactive isotope. He's actually a transgender dude who decided to keep some spare parts.

Should make things interesting in the maternity ward. Link

PS: Looks like me after the holidays.

Earlier this month, the Washington Post put up a Lost Madness game that's been getting lots of traffic from Losties everywhere. Survivors, Others, Rescuers and Guests (no Alvar Hanso?) have been battling for island supremacy, and now their down to the championship battle between Sayid and Desmond.

Check out all the brackets...it's a fun list (would you have the same final four?)

And for a little more March Madness fun, Mental Floss has a cool quiz on teams and their home states. It's tough...trust me.

I don't even care if it's true...I just love typing it.
