To the guy on 1st Ave today: I tend to think that if you used styling gel in your hair you aren’t really homeless. Maybe it’s just me. So sorry, I am not giving my money to you.

New Favorite Awful Commercial
There’s a new winner in the awful commercial search. It’s these Gas X ads. Some sample dialogue from man at a job interview: INTERVIEWER: Impressive resume. Flatulent in three languages.

Another Glittering Performance From Shelkey: PRINCE BANDAR!
Here’s something some of us UCB-ers did for New York Magazine. They somehow got a copy of Oliver Stone’s Bush movie script and we’re performing snippets from it. I play Prince Bandar.

Big Irish Baby
I’ve just returned from Dublin where I filmed a commercial. (It’s only playing in Ireland. But hopefully I’ll get a copy and post it here. Anyway…) The last time I was in Dublin was like 10 years ago. It’s changed a lot. For one, the country’s doing a lot better. And two, our country is [...]
Actor Input?
Was watching one of the countless Law & Orders on tv this week and saw one where the blonde chick, Serena, gets fired because she is too emotional about her job and then she says, “Is this because I’m a lesbian?” Fred Thompson says “No! Of course not, No!” Serena says, “Oh, good. That’s good.” [...]
