They do lots of different things...you do realize that there is theater outside of New York City? Emily Skinner was in Company and Merrily We Roll Along at the Sondheim Celebration recently and she'll be in Cat on A Hot Tin Roof, Judy Kuhn does so many concerts and was in Passion at the Sondheim Celebration. Emily Skinner also has recording contract. There is lots of theater outside of New York City and Broadway. A lot of theater that is better.

Other than that I know some actors have day jobs. I know of a few (well known actors) who have their real estate licenses.

There are several actors that do tv. I think the show Law & Order is specifically in the business of employing actors who are between gigs. LOL.

They also do tv commercials and many actors do voiceover work.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

I think Phantom was closer with bungee jumping, except he likes skydiving.

But if you really wanna know what Matt's up to, you can read his latest thoughts section tomorrow.
