I bought mine at a garage sale for 50 cents...it's called 'Wit for Dummies'. Before I studied that book I was a dense, clueless drone who couldn't get a punch line right. But NOW, I'm invited to all the best parties. Why, just the other day, DeNiro said to me 'AYY, You're PRETTY FUNNY'
I've died and gone to heaven.

Posted: 7/16/04 at 10:40amBecause the original is misspelled. Yours, however, may be gone soon (or at least cen***ed)...

1.) I am an actor. It is part of my job description.
2.) I grew up the gay theatre kid in amilitary/jock town VERY close to where VARSITY BLUES was filmed.. in fact, I was an extra in it (YES, it is REALLY like that here -- that film could be a documentary), and about an hour from Bush's ranch. Do the math. It was a defense mechanism

Posted: 7/16/04 at 11:19amI've known plenty of actors who aren't witty offcamera/offstage. You have to have a certain amount of wit (read: brains) to be witty. Not all actors have it.

Posted: 7/16/04 at 11:23amfor ME it is a requirement. You have to have a certian amount of wit to put with the level of crap we actors have to put up with at times..

Posted: 7/16/04 at 11:24amOh Broadwayguy2, you have to have a certain amount of wit to put up with living in this world. Period. Actor, lawyer, corporate drone. Actors don't have the market cornered on tough lives.

Posted: 7/16/04 at 1:55pmit's ironic how a thread about being witty has produced nary one witty response (mine included.) Performance anxiety anyone?
