"I never told my ambitions and efforts and failures to anyone. I listened unmoved to the sneers and ridicule of various relatives who thought my scribbling rank folly and waste of time. That never disturbed me at all. Down, deep down, under all discouragement and rebuff I knew I would arrive someday." - Lucy Maud Montgomery

I have...

... a girl crush on Tina Fey.

Nah, but seriously, I want her to be my writing mentor.

Step 1: Catch up on 5 seasons of 30 Rock (Done.)
Step 2: Get my hands on a 30 Rock script for format reference.
Step 3: Write 30 Rock spec script
Step 4: Get an agent and hope for the best

OR

Steps 1 thru 3
Step 4: Tina Fey has a vacation in Orlando, walks into my store, she hires me to write for her on the spot.

Anything's possible.

Outrage!

I'm mad!

They are wrong! I'm right!

The whole world ignores this ISSUE (but me).

Society this. Society that. 

Look at this online article! They agree with me!

Outrage! Anger!

Back to eating and watching my favorite TV show.

Buster Keaton

His films aren't just meant to be enjoyed. They are meant to be STUDIED. Anybody who is involved in comedy writing/directing/editing/producing/acting needs to know his filmography inside & out.

I can't remember when I first started watching him, I was so little. Probably when I was five or six. Back then I thought he was 'young Chaplin'. I thought he was the same guy, but his mustache had not 'grown' just yet. My knowledge of Keaton's life and films has expanded quite a lot since then...

It's over twenty years now and I still love him. Well, both. He and Chaplin are my soulmates.

Every Sunday in October Turner Classic Movies is going to be showing marathons of his films. And that makes me happy. (I'm not headed toward an intellectual discussion here. Like I said, he simply makes me happy.)


I'm not ashamed to admit...

... I dig LMFAO. I don't know how it happened.


Banksy

Banksy's storyboard for his Simpson's intro

Beautiful. :)

And sad. :(

But still, beautiful. :)
