Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays to all and your families. It's starting to feel more like Christmas with the winter chill that came in this week. Although, it's supposed to go up to 80 degrees on Christmas Day. I went to a Holiday party last night and actually wore a sweater and jacket. It was fun. I got a lot going on in the New Year, so I'm trying to chill before buckling down to business. Hope all is well in Cyberland. The best to you all for the holidays. Looking forward to a new year.

A Thought

Fame, fortune, and celebrity, from my perspective, are the wrong reasons for choosing acting as a way of life. Real actors are artists first. They make their choices based on living acting as a way of life, not as a career. For most, it's a struggle of monumental proportions for which there will be no reward. That fact does not concern the real actor, who has no choice but to continue to find ways to illuminate the life of the human spirit through art, because it must be done.

On a Lighter Note


On Thanksgiving day, I heard the funniest story that I've heard in a long time. We had the pleasure of having my mom's longtime friend, Loretta from Quebec feasting with us. She used to work in a gift shop on the ships that docked in Miami. I believe that is where my mother and stepfather met her. Anyway, when she first started working for the cruise line she hardly spoke or understood a word of English. A passenger walked up to her counter in the store and asked if she sold condoms there. She had no idea what the word meant, and figured it had to do with Condominiums. So she told the man that they would be entering the port of Miami in twenty minutes and that they have them all over the beach! The man gave her the strangest look, she said, and walked out of the store. We all laughed so hard. Hope you do too.
