As Smart As They Are documents the collaboration between the band One Ring Zero and an ensemble cast of award-winning authors.
After moving to New York, One Ring Zero’s founding members, Joshua Camp and Michael Hearst, discovered a curious unmarked store in Brooklyn that doubled as a makeshift office for McSweeney’s, an offbeat publishing company founded by author Dave Eggers. In addition to selling an odd assortment of products ranging from small rubber cubes to lumberjack supplies, the peculiar storefront also served as the venue for a weekly literary reading series that brought a variety of both burgeoning and established writers to the tiny space.
With Camp on accordion and Hearst on claviola, they soon began performing as the house-band for the series and ultimately invited a handful of authors to contribute lyrics. After receiving contributions from a wide range of celebrated writers, the duo then faced the challenge of setting this diverse compilation of lyrics to music.
Featuring live performances, studio sessions, and interviews with the writers and musicians, As Smart As They Are explores the relationships between music and literature while painting a portrait of the New York literary community that fostered the band.

I am an independent, feature-length, non-fiction film that documents the collaboration between One Ring Zero, the Brooklyn house-band for McSweeney's Publishing, and an ensemble cast of award-winning authors, each of whom contributed original lyrics. Featuring live performances, studio sessions and interviews with the writers and musicians, I explore the relationships between music and literature while painting a portrait of the New York literary community that fostered the band.

"An off-kilter peek into the fabulous world of McSweeney's Publishing and the Klezmer-fortified McSweeney's house band One Ring Zero."
-- The Tucson Citizen
"The marriage of musical curiosity One Ring Zero with the works of several noteworthy authors is a union that deserves to be celebrated... The interviews are garnished with live and studio footage of the band, that pulls you further into
the One Ring Zero experience."
-- Film Threat
"Ironic, quirky, and literally underground more often than not, it made me want to go back in time and attend all these readings and shows I've missed. Does this stuff really happen?"
-- Mark Moskowitz, Director of Stone Reader
"Pacheco incorporates just the right amount of music, interviews and interesting visuals to keep the film moving along at a nice pace... its unique storyline will entertain you and even have you singing along"
-- Independent Critics

Just wanted to give you a heads up that my latest forensic crime thriller, Freezer Burn, is coming out June 3! It will be available in bookstores everywhere next week, and it’s available for preorder on Amazon right now! I'll be doing a bunch of events in and around Philadelphia. For details, see my profile. Thanks for the friendship!
so sorry about that I must have passed you the wrong one.
That's funny because I tried that one a while ago too, the one I gave you, and it made me all angry because they sucked real bad, and they didn't pay too good either they offered like tickets and stuff instead of cash.
But anyways, the working site is
B I G S 1 2 . COM
it's the one I am cashing $700 a week with putting in about 23 hours a week, sometimes up to like 30 hours if I'm bored.
After you get your membership make sure you register with with the companies on page one in the members section because they are the ones that pay the big bucks, I got $50 for one that took me 50 minutes today. You'll see what I'm talking about when you begin.
Becky started taking them too and she's making $700 a week, it's making me so mad because I'm the one that showed her which one to sign up with now she's making more than me.
Alright well me and Tom are getting ready to leave now, just give me a call or I'll meet you on here and let me know if you have any problems with your membership. catcha later
