Mom: Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday Melina, Happy Birthday to you> Love, MOM. I cannot believe you are just turning 36.
Me: Wrong day. Wrong age.

I love seeing casting notices about a woman’s journey to self-discovery, dealing with her body issues with full frontal nudity plus sexual situations being required.
And then the film was written/directed by men.

No, I’m listening to this in 1498 BC on my iStone.

Andy Cobb is a few tables away from me at a cafe. I’m restraining my inner Second City fangirl squeals. He’s a smart dude. Check out his stuff:

– Doesn’t seem fair.
I like the vision of trading day exploding, all these big people and companies celebrating with champagne.
And then every user deletes their account.

I'm right, you're wrong. The end.
A close buddy and I hadn’t seen each other in several years until I moved to LA. Now, he’s visiting NY and wants to move there.
R: Not looking for cheaper. Looking for realer.
M: It’s not any more real than LA. Really. People are just as flaky, stuck up, etc. They just don’t look as fancy.
…
M: Besides, it doesn’t matter where you live, how...

Dear Guys
There are a few things you should know about ladies.[[MORE]]
1) We know in a very short amount of time (10 seconds or less) if we’re attracted to you. Don’t push it.
2) This usually depends on factors that we cannot control like your smell (no, not cologne but real smell) which tells us if we are a good DNA match, if you remind us of someone we don’t like, your voice, your...

Feedback
Loved what you did here. Great deadpan comedy. Maybe a little less vocalizing would have helped, but you made me a fan.
(casting director)
That was a fun audition. Very nice guys.

Me: Research came out how social media was causing us to have shorter attention spans.
Gal: I disagree. It's a choice. You can't deny my truth.
Me: I can because your truth is wrong.

I got a part in a one-act play in a late night show going up in July. Later this month, a little film gig.
I would say there’s more good news but it’s “I’ll believe it when I see it.” You’ll do something (ie, six projects, four speaking roles) and then POOF. You never see it. Or it’s secret.
Or your character has no lines because they are mute and the...

Browse John Peel's Record Shelf! →
I saw with mixed feelings that John Peel’s record collection is up for inspection by his adoring fans. The great DJ, whose Radio 1 show brought the most unearthly sounds to our ears, left a massive trove: 26,000 albums, 40,000 singles and tons of CDs, stashed in every room of his house except the kitchen and bedroom, the albums scrupulously filed in a cabinet.
