Where's the nets outside Apple retail stores?
My father is a woodworker and he makes absolutely beautiful things with his hands - furniture, doors, jewelry boxes, spoons, lamps… and it takes time to make them, a lot of time. Especially when there’s carving by hand involved.
No one truly appreciates how much time it takes, except my mother, who sees when he walks downstairs to his shop and when he returns with a light coating of...

Are you in audition shape for pilot season? “Isn’t it interesting how after I complete John and Joe’s on camera audition class, the first audition I have a week later I book a SAG feature.” - Kenny Lombino Ever wonder what your auditions look like? “John and Joe integrate the camera into every aspect of the class until you forget that it’s there, and in a very short period of time the camera...
#VMob’s @CHMulkey and his band are releasing a new CD and playing a gig at the House of Blues on Sunset, Wednesday at 8 pm in the Foundation Room. No cover!! If you’re in LA, go! I’ve seen Chris and his band multiple times and they always put on a killer show!
“The season finale shocked the hell out of me. It was not the what I was expecting to happen by any means. I was expecting it to be phenomenal and it was but Joe Wilson surprised the hell out of me with that ending. “

I don't make a #webseries, I make Indie TV
I make an Indie TV series called “Vampire Mob.”
Why don’t I call Vampire Mob a “webseries”?
It’s not because I’m ashamed of being on the web, which is one rebuttal I received - that’s just fucking stupid.
It’s not because I really want to work in network TV and I’m using the show to somehow “break into the industry.” I...
Why @Netflix / Reed Hastings are giant assholes
I give my parents a Netflix subscription for Christmas and have for a few years.
That is, I pay money to Netflix and they provide a service, they stream movies and rent DVD’s by mail. That’s all they do.
This year I was told by a Netflix representative - on the phone because I couldn’t believe what I was reading:
Netflix does not allow you to give a DVD subscription as a...
”I hate it when people call themselves entrepreneurs when what they’re really trying to do is launch a startup and then sell or go public so they can cash in and move on. They’re unwilling to do the work it takes to build a real company, which is the hardest work in business.”

"Time of your life, eh kid?"
2011 was one hell of a fucking ride!
A boatload of people from all over the world were a part of the ride and helped make it happen.
Thank YOU, VMob!! We would be nothing without you. The numerous acts of kindness in support of Vampire Mob never ceases to amaze me.
Learning how this story has become a part of people’s lives is more than I could ever have hoped to achieve with our...
A cast of 22 - The Barney Miller school of casting
I always loved “Barney Miller,” a cop show/sitcom made from 1975 to 1982 and still one of the greatest TV themes of all time.
The best part of the show was it’s ensemble casts, one being the main players, the police, and the other ensemble cast, the criminals, victims and lawyers who were the guest stars. It was genius.
The show rarely left the set of the squad room, with all...

I made a resolution in 2007 that I’ve kept to this day.
Another was made last year, same thing.
Not getting into the specifics of what they were, but using the calendar as an excuse to make some changes ain’t the worst idea and sometimes they really do work.
