I snapped an iPhone pic, uploaded it to twitpic and thought nothing of it. Then today, I discovered this video of the weird Elvis robot, which makes it exponentially weirder and more creepy.

It was one of the first really exciting games I’ve seen in a while, which might not be saying much because I hardly ever watch sports. The dudes were playing their asses off and it even went into overtime. It was a late game anyway, so this meant it wouldn’t end until after midnight. Despite how tired I was, I really enjoyed it and it brought me back to the old days when I had the NBA League Pass for DirecTV and watched every Clippers game.

Afterward, me and my peeps (AKA my mom, my good friend Dave and my boss Neil from DFS) went back to say hello to the guys. Everyone we saw from both the Nuggets and the Suns was very friendly and cool, but the highlight for me was definitely Grant Hill.

I’ve known him since I was a kid and my dad was an Assistant (and later Head Coach) of the Pistons. Of all the NBA players I’ve ever met, he is definitely the coolest. He’s like the quintessential role model for how NBA players should be. He’s smart; he’s friendly and polite; he’s charismatic and personable, just an all-around great dude.

After we said goodbye to my dad, I headed home and got about 3 hours of sleep before heading off to work this morning. Needless to say, I’m pretty worn out today. Still, it was one of the funnest nights since the Festival and totally worth chugging Pepsi Max to stay awake the next day.

Eden was one of the fantastic members of the press on the the Red Carpet for our Opening Night presentation of The Brothers Bloom at the Starz Denver Film Festival this past November.

If you look closely, you can see me and my friend (and fellow publicist) Rachael in the background working the carpet and walking filmmakers to their interviews. Check it out for sure!

Check out my pics from the festival after the jump…

Here’s a few.

Yeah, that’s right. The team of “ghost hunters” at this site claim to offer “ghosts where other ghost hunters can only find dirty washing!” When I saw this image of Elvis Presley’s ghost on the moon, I simply had to share with the world.

I never thought the day would come when I would get to use the words Elvis, ghosts, and moon in the same sentence.

Here’s another one I liked, if only for it’s description….

In a small ghost town in southern Denver, the ghost of a long dead cowboy lives on. He regularly appears at midnight for some eternal shootout with an old foe. Usually two muffled shots are heard before our cowboy friend vanishes for another few nights.

The Most Haunted haunted sent out a team of crack ghost hunters to investigate.

With the help of our dearly departed spiritual guide, Ivan, we were able to establish that this was the ghost of Billy “Silver Gun” Beetie. He died in 1832 after a midnight shootout with cattle thief, Rod MacToddy. MscToddy was hung six years later and to this day the spooky pair re-enact their deadly shootout.

Even better than this, check out their Real or Fake? page.
