30 Days – 3000 pages
It’s a new month. Time for a new challenge and a recap of my August 30-Day adventure. Being an extremely forward guy, lets start with September’s challenge.

Madison Moving Day 2011 – Chaos on the Curbs
“I found a better box spring and mattress set. Real Nice!” Madison moving day combines the thrill of the hunt with the utter chaos of 10,000 uprooted students.

DUFF 2011
Winter is quickly coming to an end. Soon the Midwest will frolic outdoors and forget the indoor living lifestyle until November. Before we break out our bikes and our tents, lets embrace our couch one final weekend. Last year I started the Dean Underground Film Festival – DUFF for short. Yes it still needs a better name.
