Jake's Webbed Journal
My name is Jake and I grew up in Connecticut. I live in New York City now and I write and make videos for the internet. I like cookies, blankets and running. I’m 23.
A Realization
When the previews in the movie theatre replace saying, “In the unlikely event of an emergency…” with “In the event of an emergency…” I think we will finally know that the terrorists have won.

Attention Internet
The latest Jake and Amir Hardly Working called “Good Cop, Bad Cop” is a top upcoming video on Digg. If you liked it, even just a little bit, it would be really cool if you could Digg it. Thanks, friends.

Check It

I finally redesigned my tumblr! It was actually surprisingly easy. Here’s what I did.

1. I drew a picture of a robot.

2. I asked CollegeHumor’s Illustrator intern, Paul, to color it in in exchange for a free back rub.

3. I made a design of what I wanted everything to look like in Photoshop.

4. This part was the easiest. I bothered my friend and CollegeHumor front end developer, Amir Cohen, until he finally gave in and coded it for me.

So there you go, if you don’t have friends named Paul or Amir, anyone with those talents by any name will do. Hope you like it! Oh, and you’re welcome.

Jake sent me a robot!  I think it is used to open bottles, like soda-pop…and maybe in 3 years it will work to open beer!  I made Julia this robot bottle opener in return for my ipook. We’re the most adorable pen-pals ever.
