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 […]    read more
Comic Comic Con: Hey Team, I threw together something a little bit different for today. I’m not sure if it’s going to work on everyone’s browsers yet so if you have any problems just email me or post it on the forums. You’ll need Quicktime and you should be able to just click on this link to join the […]    read more
Comics are for Kids…and Amtrekkers: Hey Team, I’m en route to San Diego for the Comic Con! I’ve been reading comics practically since I could read but I’ve never been one for the conventions. Maybe it’s just because I’ve never been into any one thing enough to feel I need to wear a costume to properly show the world just how […]    read more
California Screamin’: Hey Team, Being in California is starting to have a very strange affect on me. And not the type I would expect. You’d think being this close to home without being able to actually go back to my bed and see the whole family (That’s awkward. What’s my whole family doing in my bed?) would make […]    read more
66% Hitched: Hey Team, I’m really sorry about the long delay between the last update and this one. But for the record: Where you all see a slacker, I see a great friend. I had to fly back to California this week to fulfill my “Best Man” duties and got caught up in the wedding week madness of one […]    read more
Pre-sliced American Cheese: Hey Team, I’m on a train on the way to New York right now. Eventually, after sitting in an airport for hours on end I’ll be on my way to Sacramento to see my Best Friend get married. Needless to say it’s giving me a lot of downtime to think. And the way said thoughts are […]    read more
Which way? Fenway: Hey Team! Two down!!! Thanks to my new friend Jillian (Sorry…Jill) I had an amazing yesterday full of firsts! We started our day at this little place called the Atlantic Ocean. Kind of impressive. Looked surprisingly like the Pacific Ocean. A little on the salty side. It’s important to note that although I have previously lived in Florida […]    read more
A Californian in a Connecticut Yankee’s Court: Hey Team, After a long day trapped in the dark, dank, pit of despair that is Penn Station, New York I finally managed to escape the gravitational pull of angry, bitter people and make my way up to Connecticut. I didn’t stay long BUT I did get stay my friend Sarah, her husband and her GIANT […]    read more
Spare Change: Hey Team, I was in New York yesterday and feeling pretty disgusting. The day before, I had jogged several miles with my pack, milked a cow, mowed a lawn and slept on a park bench in front of a closed train station. Disgusting is probably an understatement considering I still hadn’t had a chance to shower. […]    read more
Been There Milked That: Hey Team, What an incredible day! I wish you were all here with me! I guess this will just have to be the next best thing. Okay, let’s get down to brass tacks…or y’know, regular tacks will do too. Last you heard I was set to meet “Dan the Amish Man” (My name for him, not his. […]    read more
