I Arrived With No Camera

[aqua1993]

Is your real name Harry McKenzie? >.>

[jaberwocky6669]

A therapist's job is to work themselves out of a job. ;)

[Juniekitty]

I somehow missed this video at the time you actually posted it. Funny I should watch it now given that my therapist has recently been giving me the "QUIT YOUR JOB" speech.

Whole thing struck a chord on the "getting back in touch with the creative self" front.

[max29297]

Serious?! I loved the jazz dispute!

[pianistnyc]

I'm trying to watch all your videos so I can pick up peices of your life linking to why and how you are so creative.

Piece one: you are from Maine.

[max29297]

Hm kinda creepy

[ubitcumajkemi]

good talk...

[14dimitri]

If you have sad in the Netherlands you worked in a coffee shop it means you worked in a drugs shop. :P But I know what you mean and I like your videos they are groovy.

Is the coffee shop you worked in the same as the one of your William Shakespeare video?

[weepingprophet]

Nope, that's a different shop. The one I worked at is shown in "Coffee Shop".

[mrpossibilities]

Something about you reminds me a little bit of someone I know: Myself.

[almostshelby]

Good to finally meet the man behind the characters.

[missuscake]

Well its almost been another year but this was really neat to see

[LoreleiMission]

Fun to hear you bemoaning here about not having 300 subs yet and nowadays you have like 1,300 subcribers

[weepingprophet]

Hehe...yup. Those were the days.

[dustman]

honestly it was nice just listening to you talk about things haha

[jillybjolly]

Where in Maine?

[PopcornRingo]

Aren't you Bernard Smith from The Church of Blow?

[herbg3]

hey man i know what you mean. but the therapy is probably the thing that is sucking the ideas out of your brain.

[postapocalypticman]

your most disturbing piece yet.

[wybo2]

Its nice to see the man after evrything

[quacker7760]

Thanks for sharing

[another1shortdaymore]

i am trying to be an actress, and sometimes it's hard to forget the expectations of family and society, but in the end you just have to live your life for yourself. you're amazingly talented, crazy creative, do not give up.

[QuinnStriate]

You're a cool guy. I think I'm in the same place you're talking about where I've been out of school and am at a job I hate. Hoping to pull something interesting together soon to be a happier person.

[alyuhua]

You're a true artist, Jeremiah :)

I love that you have this perpetual frown on your face. It's almost as if you're always contemplating something...

Keep it up!

[InsipidNight]

Do you ever smile? I think I may have to deduct some cool points for you not smiling. Hahaha. I'm just kidding. Since your glare at the end made me laugh, you can keep your cool points. Not that you need any from me. ^_~

[whitefloweret]

Your intense gaze..ah...hot. I like your picture collage. I miss those days when I had "all the time in the world", but I never seemed to do anything important.

[007HoneyBrit]

OMG! At about 4:48,I woke up (jk jk)and was that a genuine laugh we see?!!! That was so sweet! I think it was a genuine Bernard giggle!Wow~I hadn't seen one of those yet!

[frogstan]

you should try out for a play or sommat...

[alezeia234]

if you want to be an actor,first look at the camera!!!

[weepingprophet]

But I'm not acting.

[alezeia234]

ok. excusse-me

[toacircus]

omg neuro linguistic programming - hilarious. come to los angeles! you can stay on my couch!

[alaphrey]

please, please. keep it up (yer chin and the videos, they keeps my chin up).

i know its annoying to hear sometimes, my chin is almost always down.

everything i've seen from you is brilliant. i know this because i am brilliant. and i know i am brilliant because, well, i'm brilliant. so yeah, i know what i'm talkin bout. i am one person, but my standards are high and i'm always waiting for yer new videos.

[alaphrey]

they keep*

[hotdoggg32]

dude, the jazz videio was incredible!

my favorite of all of them

[CeciliaOfSweden]

Please dont be dissapointed with me ;)

[migueldsgn]

How about showing us some illustrations?

[Toemta]

Like everyone else is saying, I'm rally glad I found you on youtub, man, you have a great personality and a sense of humour. I really think and hope you'll get to make feature length movies some day. Don't ever quit, Jermemiah! :D You could be the next Andy Kaufmann!

[alistairemacrae]

Man I love you man. lol Highschool was the best. Now I know I can write better stuff, but all I come up with are outlines that I half assedly draft. I am so happy that I can participate in your creative process in the small little way that I can as a subscriber. And you unlike me seem to abound with potential. :D lol I MUST KEEP WATCHING

[tonylama63]

Sorry it took so long for me to find you on YouTube. You got some good stuff online.

[redflags123]

Not only are you intelligent, funny, talented and good looking but you're also and more importantly a teacher. Kudos!

[arisalon]

Happy belated anniversary, looking forward to what year 2 has in store. A friend (from Mass) told me about your "jazz recording that, you know, no body really cared for" in May. I told every musician I know about it and even shard it with my former jazz studies professor at University of North Texas. We all loved it. (I think he may have showed it in a class). After I saw your other work I subscribed and became hooked. Keep up the interesting and entertaining work.

[arisalon]

Was that Martin Scorsese calling? I'm glad to see you didn't drop everything just because HE called.

[streakfreak]

I'm really glad you found YouTube. I've enjoyed a lot of the stuff you've done on both of your channels. I'm sure you'll have another great year. Thanks for everything!

[VivaToddVegas]

Apparently I'm stalking you around the net today... trying to figure out who you really are. ;) I started watching Church of Blow a while back, and totally loved it. I've continued to watch that channel post-Reverend. I thought you actually were Bernard... but now I think I've found the real you. Unless this channel is just to mess with my mind as well? Damn you! ;) Whoever you are, you're a great comedian, and I mean that.

[DocRusty]

Keep on keepin' on! etc etc!

[DropCrosby]

You know it's so much more interesting getting to know someone through a vlog AFTER you've already been blown away by their talent. Looking forward to hearing more.

[mooxim]

But we're the ones who subscribed, you can't be dissapointed in us.

thanks for reminding me of your vids, I'm gunna watch a few again

[weepingprophet]

Hmmm...I guess you're right. I should learn to praise the people that support me and not comdemn them.

[seanbedlam]

Whoa! WHOOOOAAAHHH! The audience is always wrong!

[punchsboy]

Why? You don't owe anything to anyone but yourself. Once you give in to Aunt Minnie or try to please the audience with something you don't believe in, you're sunk. Just like those 'ravens'.

[1938superman]

Your "short" videos end up about as short as mine. Fucking phone. Nicely done, Mr. DICK. lol :-)

[weepingprophet]

I said "quick", not "short". Well, I DID say "cut it short".

I don't like where this conversation is leading.

[1ukia]

Real quick.. but it's 9:59 long? Heh :) More vlog.. love your stuff.. even the babbling vlogs. More Church of Blow? I need to make a bold move too..

[weepingprophet]

I usually give myself an entire afternoon to shoot something, even a straightforward video like this one, but I had less than an hour. I got it done in twenty minutes, which is some kind of record for me.

[booradleysstuntman]

Hey Bernard/Jeremiah/???. Thanks for taking the time to share your YouTube lifestory with us. Yeah, definitely trying to recapture even a portion of that creativity energy we had as kids is the ticket to moving forward. i could certainly relate to your cameraless state of affairs there. But fortunately, as you obviously discovered as well, most Catch-22's often come with a locked screendoor on one end. :)

[booradleysstuntman]

All it really takes is one good kick...or if you're feeling less dramatically-inclined at the moment, a simple finger-flip of the hooklatch will do.

Shine On, brother.

[weepingprophet]

Oh, rest assured, I'll be finger-flipping every hooklatch that comes my way.

Cheers!

[booradleysstuntman]

That's the spirit, man. i've just recently clued-in to your wp channel after many months of Blow churchgoing, & personally, i thought your Jazz Dispute post was excellent. Put me in mind of Jerry Lewis' mime work in Cinderfella. And your Spike Jones tribute was incredible btw!

[booradleysstuntman]

Not sure what's more amazing: Spike's original monologue, or you actually being able to lip-sync to it! Brilliant work, man. Best of luck with all your future projects :)

[sadvipran]

don't let the numbers get you down, jimmy. almost 1 a day isn't bad for your first year. i'm upset you won't tell me anything about the projects you're working on though...

[weepingprophet]

No, you're right. Considering I've done absolutely nothing to promote this channel, and acquired my subscribers without any featured videos or spam, 300 is not a bad number at all. I just wanted to end on a sour note.

[seanbedlam]

Loved the sour note. ;)

[Azrepheal]

We're all looking forward to Year 2!

[weepingprophet]

Cheers!

[sendorange]

Keep on creating! I look forward to seeing what it all is :)

I think I should start emailing YT when you have a new video, try and get some more featured. That seems the best way to breakthrough for more subscribers.

[weepingprophet]

I'd be thrilled to get a video featured. But I think Bernard desires it even more than I.

[geekyvince]

yeah its tuff for me to do stuff as well I know how your feeling about crappy jobs and what not
