My God. I can't believe it. I suspect the final auction price will be $1,000,000,000,000,000.

By the way, I have a beautiful baby son. His name is Aaron.

That is my single fear about this movie, and the thing that could doom it: an emphasis on it being a GAY love story. I'm just curious, how are you defining a film as a GAY love story?

The book, or short story, whatever way you look at it, was good. Not great, but good. I'm a straight, married man, with a child on the way, and th...

'Gates of Fire' by Steven Presfield. It's set in ancient Greece depicting the battle of the Spartons and the Persians... Quite possibly one of the best books I've ever read.
