“Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it’s to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential-as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth. You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them.”

But if Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas and Kristen Bell announced they were collaborating on an unrelated project, the donations would be far less. It’s the difference between telling someone “Give me $100 to try cocaine for the first time” and “Give me $100 for more…

Escape from Tomorrow. The movie I wish I saw at Sundance. Google it.

This sounds so great.

Goddamn. Nothing like stealing a whole movie at DisneyWorld.

Near the end of the shoot they were almost caught by Disney while filming the family entering the Disneyland gates. The Disney castmembers thought that the camera crew were a bunch of paparazzi trying to get a shot of a famous family. (Remember, they were shooting with a DSLR camera.) The cast and crew were taken aside and the family insisted they were not famous. A castmemeber kept asking “Why did you enter the park two times in seven minutes?” Luckily the young girl in the cast began screaming that she needed to go to the bathroom. The cast and crew escaped after a crowded parade began on Main Street, the wireless sound mics shoved into their socks in case they were stopped. But they weren’t.

Someday we’ll get to see this.

Love this.

COOL PANELS - Preacher #41

This is one of my favorite moments in a comic I enjoyed at a pretty formative time in my life. Jesse Custer (our hero) is laying low in the small town of Salvation, TX. And when asked to be a deputy of the local law enforcement, he rejects it: “No. But I’ll be your GODDAMN SHERIFF”

I think about this moment a lot and try to use it when applicable.

“Can you help me move on Saturday?”
“No. But I’ll be your GODDAMN SHERIFF.”

“Do you want to be an extra in this music video?”
“No. But I’ll be your GODDAMN SHERIFF.”

“Are you guys using this chair?”
“No. But I’ll be your GODDAMN SHERIFF.”

Mom - Jonny, the Thai TV said the world is going to explode tomorrow. I just call to say Hi before it happen.

Me - Oh ok, Hi.

Mom - Did the TV talk about it over there?

Me - Yeah, but nobody cares.

Mom - Yeah, everyone will just see each other in hell. Ok, I let you sleep now.

Me - Love you.

Mom - Bye.

Jon’s mom is the best.
