A little bit about me: One year ago I was sitting in a posh office in downtown London, about to start my life in the business world. And then catastrophe struck: I downloaded an MP3 onto my computer at work. Harmless, don't you think? Two days later I found myself fired, fined, and jailed. Collateral damage of the digital age.
So here I am, living to New York City with my childhood friend Henry, making a go of it in the blogosphere. Enjoy the posts, and feel free to drop me a line!

A little bit about me: Hello, Internet! It's me, Henry Scott. You've probably heard of me. If not, here's a primer. I've been a stand-up comedian in London for the past few years, before I realized my true calling: blogging. I didn't like the comedy world much anyway. Too many agents. I hate agents. In November 2005 me and my best buddy Mark packed up for New York City, and here we are, proud parents of BathTubYoga. What else? I like Ginkgo Biloba and Ginseng, and women love me.

[X] “The Smell” Script
Henry sits at his laptop while Mark unpacks. Mark sniffs the air.
HENRY
We're really doing it aren't we, Mark? We're really becoming professional bloggers.
MARK
Where is that smell coming from?
HENRY
Think about BathTubYoga, think about all the glory that awaits us.
MARK
I cannot believe it. We travel all this way and America just smells like shit.
HENRY
Forget the smell mate. Just imagine: Gawker, Boing Boing, Penny Arcade, and BathTubYoga.
MARK
Do you think it's coming from the walls? It smells like my grandmother.
HENRY
Before or after she died?
MARK
What? Nana's dead? But? But?
HENRY
Uh? Did you check under that pile of newspapers.
MARK
I thought they were yours.
HENRY
Not mine.
MARK
Not yours?
HENRY
Not yours?
Mark approaches the newspapers. He looks underneath and finds a dead homeless man. The two bloggers jump back.
HENRY
My god! That dead hobo smells horrid.
