He Wants Hollywood to Know How Much He Misses Rick Moranis

Funny man DJ Lubel (C’05) seems to juggle a whole bunch of creative jobs here in Los Angeles.

• His day job is working as an Associate Producer on the show fellow Penn alum Roy Bank (C’94) created, Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader?.
• He just finished working as an Associate Producer at "Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D List" among other jobs.
• When he’s not writing scripts, he performs original comedic songs all around Los Angeles.
• He’s had shows at the Whiskey A GO GO, The Pig N the Whistle, El Cid, Cabana Club etc.

In addition, DJ has created a whole bunch of funny viral videos, but his “I Miss Moranis” one in particular has caught the attention of such sites as IMDB, Funnyordie and Spiketv. Last spring, the attention of this video had students at Lindenwood University in St. Charles Missouri fly DJ out to perform at their annual spring fling event!

Right now DJ is working with other fellow Penn alumni including Jake Avnet (C’05), Conor Welch (C’05) and Jason Ziven (W’05) in developing future projects.

He's Our July Contest Winner!

For our July contest, Kyle Schroeder (W'00), was kind enough to donate a gift basket of 3 tubes of his new Cremo (Shaving) Cream with fogless mirrors.

...And because he registered for my newsletter, Tom Heller (C'95) was randomly selected as the winner of our July Contest!  Congratulations, Tom!

More about Kyle's Cremo Shaving Cream here ...+/-

The Astonishingly Superior Shave Cream

* Dramatically reduces cuts, nicks, scrapes and razor irritation.
* Gives you the closest, most comfortable. longest lasting shave.
* Leaves your skin astonishingly soft and smooth.

Try It Once to Believe it. Enjoy It For Life. It's Really That Good.

Most shave "creams" and "gels" are actually foam -- which is primarily air. Visualize a sharp blade scarping across your delicate skin with air as the main "lubricant." It tears your skin, creates little cuts and nicks that bleed, and leaves your skin looking and feeling rough.

Cremo has no air: It's an extremely rich cream (even more so than other similar/non-foam luxury shave creams). It contains unique, super-lubricating, highly-slippery molecules that have been compounded with powerful skin conditioners. Together, they make your blade glide smoothly over your skin astonishingly soft and smooth. I think you will find this is better than anything else you have ever used. Try it once to believe it. Enjoy it for life.

If you can't wait, here are some discounts to purchase Kyle's shaving cream at drugstore.com:

• New Customers: Receive $5 off $30 or $10 off $50 on your first non-prescription order! Offer ends 08.31.08.A great deal if you have never ordered from the website before. I think (but am not sure) that you can use it with the link above--definitely with the ones below. Drugstore.com carries everything from Frontline flea repellent for your pets to inflatable pool toys, so spending $50 is easy, plus you get free shipping and no tax (for those of us not in WA).
• Cremo Cream Shave Cream, with Free Fogless MirrorThis is a great promotion that we are running. Incredible value given that you can pay $20 for a fogless shower mirror in most stores. 
• 20% off SALE for 6 oz Cremo Cream tube

For other Penn folks who want to donate a prize for a future DT contest, email me at merosler@gmail.com

Her Artwork Brightens up the Sick

When her husband was a chemo patient at Penn’s hospital, artist Joan Myerson Shrager (C’60) used her talent to brighten things up.

Per Joan,

“At the time my husband was a chemo patient (for 11 years) the walls [of the hospital] were bare and unpainted. The environment was so dingy for patients undergoing such a demoralizing procedure I wanted to brighten it up. Patients and nurses told me they loved seeing the art.”

Since then she donated approximately 20 framed computer prints to the medical building where chemo patients are under treatment. Her digital art is in the permanent collection of the University and hanging in a permanent exhibition at GSE.

Further, Joan is a founder and director of ArtForms Gallery Manayunk for 12 years (an artist-run cooperative gallery) and worked with hundreds of local and national artists to curate and create community outreach exhibitions. She is now working with the Temple Judea Museum of Keneseth Israel to curate and assist with a yearly calendar of exhibitions. She also creates ongoing art projects for the synagogue and volunteers as an art teacher of inner city teenagers in conjunction with an after school program run by the Methodist Church.
