I Always See Other People As Predecessors

People Like The Comedy More When They Care About The Characters.

I Have To Go Back To Vinyl Every Once In Awhile, Even If My Kids Don't Want To Hear It. I'm Much More Likely To Be Listening To Wilco Or The Avett Brothers.

I Like Human Comedies - Or Dramedies. More Than Anything, I'm Interested In People Just Dealing With Everyday Things That Are Difficult, And There Is More Than Enough Comedy And Drama In That.

Most People In The World Of Comedy At Least Are Multi-hyphenates, So People Who Direct Are Also Writers.

Don't Be A Jerk. Try To Love Everyone. Give More Than You Take. And Do It Despite The Fact That You Only Really Like About Seven Out Of 500 People.
