Actually, the guy who played Egon, actually co-wrote the script with Dan Akroyd for Ghostbusters and also wrote the script for another comedy of which I have totally forgotten the name. But I totally thought it was Egon myself.

To add a little flavor from my profession, you need to have Henry have sex while dying with Sarah, who has fallen in love with a shark, a pebble, and a squid, all while keeping their Time-Sold up. Actually, they could all just sit on the floor of a subway and drool, just as long as their Time-Sold is up. We’re talking at least 95% people. Okay, now I’m off to have some more meetings about keeping our Time-Sold up that will be charged to Overhead (i.e. not Direct, i.e. not toward our Time-Sold).

Excellent choice Bill. As a man of the pen, or word processor, your choices are sound and wise.

ACCORDING TO JIM: THE MOVIE. I wonder if Jims charm and vulnerability will translate to the silver screen.

But what of Joey Pants?

Or, alternatively:

Where of Joey Pants?
When of Joey Pants?
How of Joey Pants?
Why of Joey Pants?

I hope I can get to this one. I want to see how to keep a possiblely great Ben Hur type of movie concept from becoming a Howard the Duck or Young Einstein.

Bill! You looked so much like Barton Fink in your younger days… and the Jesus Quintana for that matter… and Bernie Bernbaum. Huh.

I’ll kick things off a little early. How do you write a screenplay? Just kidding of course. I am looking forward to this Q&A.

Bill, thank you very much for offering to do this.

I am more interested however, in the oddly horrifying ad that has appeared on the blog
Picture of
” Zac Effron”
then “Who’s hotter?”
picture of
“Jonas Bros.”

Now I don’t know who either of these people are but do you know how that add could be better?
I think you do know.

If it was for Bacon of course.

Bill, did you see that David Duchovny movie that recently came out called: The TV Set. You might like it.
