Coming from you, that's a very high compliment indeed. It was such a high and such an honor to have been allowed to speak that night. It's been a strange two weeks, no? He touched us so deeply.
Love you,

Ohhh, whatta night at the WGA. Wow. The perfect (and deeply sad) blend of exquisite humor ("Don had pet names for his agent; one of them was Greedbag") music to make us cry, stories, Tim's excellent videos, that empty microphone with the…"

"Nick,
See you at the Wintner bash. But to get in, you've got to do the rap-singing video. Hey, it might be a whole new career move. I know it is for me...golden age rap!

"Joey,
Wally Burr is the best. He directed all the G.I. Joes I appeared in as Flint. He really knows his stuff and has directed the biggest in the biz. Very specific, no-nonsense -- the real McCoy. Please say hello to him from Flint.

"Joey,
Ahhh, the joys of smoke & mirrors. That's my talk-back mic that a girlfriend in 1980 gave to me after using it as a ballpeen hammer. I use a Sennheiser 416 in the booth.

    Great work!
