Countdown to the new job. Alleged script news, and a tragic end to the "missing Gus" saga. I saw Greg Fitzsimmons at the gym; you know, "the guy that wouldn't read my Nick DiPaolo pilot." We have picture lock on Sex In Your 40s, but I'm feeling Alan Smithee about it. I tried to read "Story" by Robert McKee, the screenwriting guru. (More like BORE-y) I watched the motion picture "Stand Up Guys," so you don't have to. Speaking of "stand up guys," I watched "Is This Thing On" on the plane to NY, and never prayed for a bird strike more in my life.
