  • i appreciate the advice, thanks, but i havent seen you anywhere.. ?

  • i wish this guy would stop trying to act, and just give advice. he gave advice, but it was all common-sense stuff. you know what would have made his acting good in this little clip? if he gave himself an actable objective. but really...he didn't name on casting office, or even point anyone in a relatively specific direction...lame. all i learned was that this guy had a yellow tape that had his name on it from the 1980's.
