I've been thinking about this a lot lately.

Maybe it's because my friend, Frank, brought it up at a dinner party that Morgan and I hosted Saturday night. Maybe it's just because I'm angry that this disgraceful swindler, Bernard Madoff, took so much from so many.

Video star and Friday fun

Happy New Year!

Here's a little something I worked on with my friend and Ledger videographer Joe Paull.

I'm going to head home soon and try to sleep off this developing cold.
