If you're making comedies, they have to have a fun and a rhythm to them.
I was a huge fan of comedy in high school.
I think I'm better than Mamet, I would say.
I love 'The Wire;' that's my favorite show, so I'll watch that.
I like to remind myself how hard acting is. I do parts in friends' stuff.
I hired a personal trainer to help me lose 25 pounds and get from obese to fat. My next step will be to get from fat to chubby.
I have no tax breaks or corporate interests to be supported by Barack Obama.
I can't exactly say why there's not much protest music to speak off. And I know there are acts out there still putting a message in their music.
Having two kids, I don't get out to see stand up much anymore.
Having a guy on a microphone yelling lines at you is counter to a lot of acting techniques.
Governor Palin leans far closer to 'spokesperson' than representative of the people.
First off, no one award-wise ever rewards comedy, which is... whatever. I don't care about that.
Dick Cheney and Bush's rise to power were built on tons of money from corporations and a dulled press.
Actually, 'Wayne's World 2' I kind of liked. I think 'Wayne's World 2' does have some creative things in it, some ideas in it.
