Amtrekker
Hey Team,
I’m an unemployed vagrant. All I have is a backpack full of technology, a shoestring budget and a very important list. When everything is crossed off my list I get to go home! Let me know if you want to trade one of those shoestrings for help. brett@amtrekker.com

I’m Not a Dad but I Play One on TV:

Hey Team,

Some of you may remember a couple of months ago I accidentally ended up as the male lead in a television show for Court TV. Yes, accidentally. The point is I can now officially tell you that the show airs THIS Wednesday, August 1st at 10:30 pm on Court TV! It’s an episode of Psychic Detectives titled “Close to Home.”

I’m not sure what it’s going to look like on account of I’m a designer NOT an actor. So, I can pretty much guarantee some bad acting. But at least it’ll give you folks so more ammo to make fun of me with.

If you don’t remember what I’m talking about or never read the original story it’s here. Enjoy.

I’m done.

Brett.

  7. Good Job Brett….our nephew is a celebrity now, does this mean our family name is going to be trashed in the papers? By the way, your tv girlfriend was “NOT NICE”.
