Very, Very, VERY carefully.

Cyberspace is fun to horde.

It's a story to tell when conversation gets dull, I suppose.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 11/4/04 at 12:13am

hahaha, it's definitely a good story. Just don't want Tiff to scare anybody!

[insomniak]

Posted: 11/4/04 at 12:16am

We're past scary, but I'll spare us all further indignities.

I love being the loose canon. And no, Emcee, I don't think I'll do the stage door bit. How awkward would that conversation be? "Yep, I'm Type_A_Tiff on the boards." "Oh. From the way you act on the forum, I thought you'd be younger. Like 12." "Umm...sign my program?"


Edit: I think I killed this thread.

Just don't say who you are, Tiff.

Viva - Can you describe it? I read about it in passing somewhere.

Posted: 11/4/04 at 1:44am

Well I havent seen the movie yet, But my friend sent me the song and told me some about it. The main character is currently in a production of "Lease" Wearing a Roger Leather Jacket and a Mark scarf" and the song is called "Everyone hads AIDS"

*edited to add* ALso, the other ensembles are apparently dressed as like, Mimi, theres a fuzzy pink bra girl, ect.

The song is quite funny, despide the lack of lyrics other then "Everyone has AIDS, AIDS AIDS AIDS...ect. lol

I've seen it and yes Lease in Team America is hysterical, unfortunately after the first 20 minutes of the film the laughs are gone and you can't even tell who the south park guys are making fun of anymore.

Tiff, are you lacking a sense of adventure this evening? I thought everyones goal was to send an actor running and screaming in fear.. All in a days work I would have guessed..

hahahah

I must say though that your high jacking amused me and made me laugh on this very dismal day!

Hi all --

I am set to return to sanity after getting completely obsessed with the television and the internet yesterady as I breathlessly followed the ups and downs...and downs...and downs of election day. Then today several of us took a drive into the beautiful countryside of the Pacific Northwest so we could try to remind ourselves of something bigger than ourselves and our politics for a few hours...

And now that I've said all of that, I'll get to some responses to some questions. I don't know if I'll get them all done in one go, but I'll get to what I can.

Thanks for the giggles as I read the past couple of pages' worth of...well, let's just call it nonsense, shall we, and leave it at that? :-P

Take care --

Anthony

Here's a little bit of what I've managed to get through. Now it's time for bed...

Take care --

Anthony

from Kayla --

1. I love your Look Around CD, any other plans to record another?

I would love to, yes. I'm hoping that I will get to make some more music industry contacts through the Rent movie so my next cd doesn't have to be *quite* so do-it-yourself. It would be nice to have a little more muscle behind it.

Thanks for the kind words about Look Around, by the way. I'm certainly proud of it, and I'm always happy when I learn that I'm not the only person who enjoys listening to it.

2. What was your favorite embarassing TV show you liked watching growing up? Everyone has one

I guess Inspector Gadget.

3. What is your favorite sound (getting all Actor's Studio on you)

The sound of music playing. Sorry if that's generic, but really good music, of all different stripes, gives me so much pleasure and inspiration.

from ShbrtAlley44 --


"Anthony, do you like sushi? And what's your favorite kind, if you do?"

I love sushi, and my favorite is probably hamachi, also known as yellowtail. Fish is the only animal I eat. Sometimes I wish I didn't, but my body tends to get a little freaked out if I don't get enough protein, and I've found it hard to get enough through other means.

from 525600minutes --

"Now, Anthony, what is your favorite curse word?"

F*ck or f*cking or f*cker or f*cked. (Is such language allowed on these boards? I don't want to get knocked out of here or anything if I were to type the actual word instead of the censored version.)

from LindsayAnne --


"I actually have an acting-related question for you. Is there a specific method of acting that you prefer (Meisner, Stanislavsky, etc)? And on a similar note, do you find one particular method to be more difficult to work with?"

I think I more or less answered this question earlier, but in case you can't find that spot in the thread, I'll say that the best teacher I've worked with is Sande Shurin, and I would describe her method as a wonderful departure from the Method, in that it allows for very intense, deep, creative work without all of the psychic trauma that the Method sometimes dredges up in people. She has a book called "Transformational Acting" that I think is very good at distinguishing what it is that she does differently from other teachers. She's an amazing and inspiring person.

to herenowhere3 --

I just wanted to say thanks for the kind words about Gompers.

from stacey --

"If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?"

Come say hello to your Mom. She's been waiting to give you a hug.

"Anthony, what is your favorite word?"

Delicious.

"What is your least favorite word? hehe (No need to answer, especially if you're saving all these answers for when you actually go on Mr. Lipton's program...)"

Cynical

"Oh, I have another question-- Do you remember all of the lyrics and lines to musicals, plays and films you've done in the past? "

No chance at all. LOL My brain is like a sieve after I've finished a show. Although song lyrics tend to stick in there a little better than spoken dialogue.

Hi, Anthony. I was wondering, how long were you (and the rest of the cast) in negociations to be in the movie? Were there any notable snags at any point in the process? Thanks!

Also, I have to say again, its really great that you take the time to inform us all about everything. Thanks so much!

"Thanks for the giggles as I read the past couple of pages' worth of...well, let's just call it nonsense, shall we, and leave it at that?"

We do what we can. And "nonsense" would probably be the perfect word.

[VivaBohemia]

Posted: 11/4/04 at 1:08pm

Yeah. The nonsens is what kept me from throwing my political television right out the window. :)

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 11/4/04 at 1:49pm

Congratulations, Anthony! You've answered questions up to the middle of page 14! Only 9 more (and growing) to go! (Is this the appropriate time to insert [Golf claps]? Anyone?)

Anthony, have you went shopping in Bellingham and Seattle yet? You're missing out if you haven't. (No need to respond...That was rhetorical! I'm just sayin'.)

[luvtheEmcee]

[insomniak]

Posted: 11/4/04 at 2:40pm

*sends a coupon that entitles Anthony to a good long thearapy session*

It's the least I can do. And nonsense is a very kind word for us. (Though it's very fun) F*CK is also my favorite curse word- did you know it's the most versatile word in the english language? Think about all the uses...

Thanks, Anthony...we were starting to worry we'd scared you off.

*sigh*
Only you, insomniak.

Oh, and Anthony - I ADORE Inspector Gadget. Your bringing that up definitely made me smile.

Posted: 11/4/04 at 3:34pm

I am laughing SO hard right now.

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 11/4/04 at 3:38pm

I've been told I'm too vulgar. Especially at work. Any thoughts?

[insomniak]

I don't know, but that's F*CKing funny!
