Apparently Amanda doesn't get any lines in our latest short film venture. When we got word we landed parts we were expecting lines but welcome to the world of disappointment's. In a way I'm glad it happened.She needs to get used to it. She took it a lot better than I would have. I think my biggest acting disappointment was when I was called to drive up to Paramount Studios for an interview. I landed a part with Peter Dinklage in an episode of Nip/Tuck. I drove back up to LA for a fitting and then one more time for the actual shooting. They never used me. I watched and waited and they never used me. Well, that's Hollywood for you. Your just the actor they need and then it's "Oh we just wanted you here in case we needed you". Huh? Ooohkaaay. Well I got paid not to mention a free haircut on the Paramount Studios lot. I once read that this show was like a bad car accident. You know you shouldn't look but you do anyways. I definitely wouldn't let my daughter watch it. Talk about pushing the envelope.

Amanda and The Crazy World of Show Business
Just got word we landed parts in our latest short film Little Lionel Little. My daughter Amanda is turning out to be quite the little actress. Should I worry? After all it's a tough biz to be in. You know maybe I was put here to get the experience to hand down to her and watch her become the next big thing. That would be awesome. If I don't get anywhere in this crazy road to stardom, at least I can guide and support her and most of all protect her from the weirdos and sickos out there. Been there and met them. Tonight I'm taking Amanda to a rehearsal for the first short film she landed, His Brothers Keeper. Wow! 11 years old and already two films. She'll catch up to me in no time.
