stress space house
I cannot stress this enough - if you try to install an HDTV in a non-HDTV compatible house, you may tear the space-time continuum.
imagination capture miniatures
As a hobbyist, there's something about miniature anything that captures my imagination.
pepsi disappear ifs
Who among us wouldn't rush out and buy a Pepsi if we thought it would make the Osborne's disappear?
week infection
Shouldn't EVERY week be Infection Control Week?
vacation thailand want
You take a vacation to a place like Thailand and you're ready for the excitement of something new and foreign. But when you're working 14-hour days, all you want is something familiar to ground you. And there's just nothing there.
thinking yarn long
I told personal stories the way [Bill] Cosby would spin a yarn for ten minutes. I think in hindsight it works better as a long story than as a condensed monologue.
thinking inappropriate volume
I think that music at inappropriate times with inappropriate volumes can be the funniest thing ever.
kind embarrassed pleasant
I'm kind of embarrassed by how quickly I adjusted to L.A. I really love it. It's so pleasant.
new-york real editing
Going into editing when I got to New York was part of that. I guess I just kind of wanted to know as much as possible. But I have a real love of the whole process, from start to finish. So right now, I fit into the acting part of the process, but I wouldn't rule anything out. I'm enamored with how the whole thing works.
air editing giving
Sometimes you just create a joke out of thin air in the editing room. So I'm really glad I've had that experience. It gives me a little more confidence in front of the camera.
fields shows daily-show
Working on The Daily Show, I co-produced all those field segments, and that's another huge thing.I probably did more than 100 field segments.
editors understanding different
I'm sure I cause just as much consternation for editors as any other actor, but it definitely makes me feel more comfortable understanding how and why all the different camera setups exist.
heat-and-humidity people lovely
I've been to Indonesia, but I've never been to Thailand. I hear the people are lovely, the food is delicious, and that the heat and humidity are lethal.
spring school kids
I went to Oberlin College, and they don't have a film major, but they do have what's called an individual major, where you can sort of pitch to a committee your own course study, and if they approve it, you have essentially just designed your own major. So Oberlin doesn't have a film major; they do have a film minor.And then my spring semester of my junior year, I went off to NYU film school as a visiting student - they have a program for kids from other schools to come in for a semester.
