love girl play
The actress (Heidi Swedberg) is this wonderful girl, and ... I love her! i couldn't figure out how to play off of her. Her instincts for doing a scene - where the comedy was - and mine were always misfiring.

Divorce is very difficult, especially on the kids. Of course, I'm the result of my parents having stayed together, so you never know.

goes minutes people
Do you want to have a career that goes beyond, you know, 11 minutes in a 22-minute television show every week? Some people don't. That's fine.
seinfeld stepped
Jerry Seinfeld made a puddle, I stepped in it, and wonderful things happened.
funny jerry pounds seinfeld
Jerry Seinfeld has an interesting theory. He goes, '20 pounds up or down, and you lose your funny.'

I think that I have very few personal gifts to bring to real politics.
backstage best combined company fellows performing synergy
I went into performing for the community. Being backstage with your company of fellows is the best part of working in live theater. That energy, that combined focus, the synergy - it's addictive.
