Atomic Ed & The Black Hole is a great film about a former Los Alamos National Laboratory machinist who collects atomic junk and sells it in his shop. I really need to visit this place. He has so much cool debris from the atomic era, and the FBI actually raided his store at one point to take some of it back. A lot of artists come here to find junk for their art.

So I think it’s great that two of my favorite TV shows are about divisions of the college I’m attending. Inside the Actor’s Studio is just great, I love hearing actors talk about their craft. James Lipton can seem a bit annoying as the frustrated actor-turned-interviewer, until you read his biography and find out all he’s done in his life including writing books and screenplays and lots of acting roles; and the fact that he started the Actor’s Studio in the first place.

Project Runway is another one of my favorites, because I find it amazing that these designers can put together such great outfits with so little to work with. Sewing aint easy, and to have that level of technical skill plus the creativity to pull it all together, is just a rare talent.
