I wrote a complaint letter to Jamba Juice regarding the use of polystyrene (styrofoam) cups. This is what they wrote back:

Hello Jeffrey,

Thank you for taking the time to contact us. You are a valued customer and I applaud your efforts. Jamba Juice continues to aggressively seek out an alternative packaging solution to the polystyrene that we currently use with vendors as well as other food & beverage brands. Our main focus is finding another option that not only maintains the temperature, quality, consistency and integrity of our smoothies, but is also friendly to the environment.

In the meantime, you are welcome to bring in your own re usable mug and we will be happy to fill it and give you a 10 cent discount.

Jamba Juice is equally passionate about our product, our customers and the world we live in . I will be more than happy to forward on your feedback to the appropriate teams and I want you to know that your voice WILL be heard.

We hope to provide our customers an alternative in the very near future.

Sincerely,
Alexandra Rodriguez

I don't think that is enough. Do you?

I'm really sick of McCain's lies. It's about time they started fighting back.

Gilad Foss and I have broken ground on our new comic short, FINALLY.

After a series of set backs, rewrites, casting snafu's and more we knocked out the majority of the voice over. Gilad gave a great performance in the lead role and it felt great to direct again. It's been a while - to long.

We should be able to knock out the rest of the VO sometime this month. By that point I should have some character art to show as well.

For those wondering, my brother was selected and was flown out to NYC to be filmed as part of this Contest. He didn't win, but hey... Not Bad!

Yep, this is actually new.

David Lynch talks about watching films on a cell phone. Clip from special edition of Inland Empire.

A modified short form of the Chen style of Tai Chi that was created for the movie "The Fountain."
