Resume Page Update

I'd say this is a post that most of you who are following along at home will be completely uninterested in, but I have updated the Resume page of the site.

The next and final update to the new design will be the Fun page. I'll see if I can make it a bit more fun. And hey, some NEW material would be good too. But I should pace myself, right?

Boiler Room

Those of you wishing to view my brief appearances in celluloid are in luck (if you're cable subscription includes Starz). On Demand this month on Starz is the film Boiler Room starring Giovanni Ribisi, Vin Diesel, the great Nicky Katt, and one of my favorite immensely underrated actors, Jamie Kennedy. I spend my time sitting next to Giovanni. He steals my twinkies. Take a look at the trailer, but don't blink too quickly, you may miss me.



Yes, that's me in the lower left of the screen of the preview image above.

Music Break!

Here's a great video and song that was just stolen from my friend's blog who, evidently stole it from someone else's. The song is "Her Morning Elegance" by Oren Lavie

Updated Images Page

Still working on the site and I've updated the Images page to fit in the new format. More pics will come along as I get them scanned in, so check back again if you're looking for something in particular.

Can't We All Get Along?

It's been pretty slow on the commercial audition front, but I did get a call for one the other day. My agent called, gave me the details and proceeded to ask if I "had any conflicts with biscuits?" That is my new favorite phrase. "Do you have any conflicts with biscuits?" None whatsoever.

For those who don't know, when you audition for on-camera commercials, if you've already made a commercial for "Bob's Soda", you can't be in or audition for a commercial for a competetor's product, like "Steve's Soda." You'd be endorsing two competing products, and that's a no-no. I'm not 100% sure as to why exactly, but it does make sense.

Now let it be known across the universe, I have no conflict with biscuits! Can't we all get along?

Feelin' Groovy

Off the antibiotics and I have to say, this morning is the best I've felt in a very long time. At least 51 days. So all is well. Now, if we can just get my daughter feeling better.

Two If Bye-Bye

Sorry folks, I know you'll be kicking yourself for missing this one, I know I am. It turns out my first film, Two If By Sea was on the cable network Encore tonight. I know, I know... I should have alerted everyone to this cinematic masterpiece but my movie radar's been on the fritz lately. Just remember, you CAN still rent it or purchase it in finer establishments throughout the planet. Umm, I get no money for it if you do. OK, just forget it. It'll probably run in re-runs forever.

Thank you.

Sloggin' Along

Still working hard on the site. I know it's a wreck right now, but it is coming along. In the mean time, you may want to look at some photos from the holidays. I've posted a few from my NC visit with Stella and her cousins on my flickr site. Click the link on the left side of the page.

It would seem the antibiotics are doing the trick. I started a second round this past Monday and am feeling loads better. So goodbye sinus infection and hello beer, hard liquor and normal colds!

Very non-current thought for the evening: If I think Ugly Betty really isn't that ugly, does that make me shallow?

Another Video Clip In The Wall

Yeah, that was a little nod to Pink Floyd*, but has nothing to do with them at all. I just added my Time Warner commercial to the Reel page in which I play a "Do-It-Yourself-er" who, in fact, does nothing of the kind.

In keeping with my sickness theme here on the blog, it's interesting to note, the night before it was shot, I was up every hour, on the hour, for the ENTIRE night. I'm trying to spare too many details, but, I'd never then, nor since been as sick as that. Luckily for me, even though the shoot was very early in the morning, it was shot about 3 minutes from my house. In between takes I'd spend my time crumpled in a heap on that crappy chair. I'd like to thank the make-up person for making me, at least, look like I was still breathing. Also, big thanks to the director, Bruce Hurwit, for being so patient and understanding about the whole thing. Oh yeah, almost forgot... it was a 2 day shoot.

And, as an added bonus, I also added the Chappelle's Show Promo where I play the "Verizon Guy"-type person.

Reel Page Updated

Just finished an update of my Reel page. Haven't had a chance to really give it the once-over, so please forgive any errors. But I think those of you who have been to my site before will find it an improvement. I'll be adding more content as I get it.

Still sick, but as I mentioned previously, I'm on "the drugs" and hope to be better in a few days.

Eeeuuuuwww....

Well it's official! My cold has developed into a lovely sinus infection and currently my body is being blasted with antibiotics. Hopefully I'll be feeling "up to snuff" (sorry) soon.

Sick of Being Sick

So I've been sick, with that 2-week cold TWICE! My first round was right at Thanksgiving, and then again on the eve of New Year's Eve. Haven't been to a doctor yet, but I think it may be a good idea at this point. Thankfully, my family has been spared the Cold That Refuses to Leave.

In Directing News... Seems my dream of directing the stars is beginning to come true. I got to direct Joe Piscopo and his son to the rest room the other day! Well, it was the highlight of my day at least.

Still working on getting the website completed. I know it's a mess right now, but I think it will be worth the wait.

Embracing Technology/Geeky Dude

Awesome! I'm sending this from my phone! It only took about 10 minutes take log on and type this bit.

Pathetic.

New Design

Hi everybody, hope the holidays treated you well! I've decided to make a few changes on the website. NOW the homepage will feature a blog (yeah, I know, another one) where I can write musings, thoughts and goings-ons which will allow me to keep in closer touch with the fan. No need to register or sign-in to comment. Just click on "Comment" and start typing. Currently, I've only gotten to the homepage, but the rest of the site will be getting a make-over as well, just give me some time. Hope everyone enjoys the slightly new design. Let me know.

YAY! New thingy!



Oh, and that "fan" thing written up top there? Sadly, that wasn't a typo.
