This is a video I did with my buddy Mark Douglas. It's a lost 80s metal video:

Books
Movie novelization of “Guess Who?” (Bernie Mac/Ashton Kutcher comedy) I don’t want to brag, but this book is over 57 pages and I completed it in four months), How to Soil Yourself at a Party with Dignity (totally saved my life a bunch of times), 100 Years of Solitude, Crime and Punishment, Tapping the Source by Kem Nunn (unbelievably good!! Please read this today!!), Down and Out in Paris and London, A Moveable Feast (this is the most amazing, romantic book ever. Seriously. I know I wrote a lot of bullshit stuff earlier, but I adore this book. This is what it means to be an artist!!), One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Two Trains Running, Conversations with Wilder and Something to do with Death (Sergio Leone book)
Heroes
Marlon Brando and Richard Pryor are my all time heroes! Also - Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Peter Sellers, Ricky Gervais, Albert Brooks, Jim Carrey, GARY OLDMAN, Dave Chappelle, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Eddie Murphy, Billy Wilder, Sam Kinison, Tupac, voice actor and comedian Tom Kenny, Harry Houdini, Axl Rose. Especially when all of these people worked together. I saw GNR in 1988 when they opened for Aerosmith, and it was the single greatest performance I have ever witnessed live. Axl completely commanded the arena - and for an hour or so went though every single possible emotion that a person could experience. It was pure roof shaking, ear splitting rock. Axl rules!
About me: I can’t read, and I am dictating this to my houseboy, who also helps me run errands. He name is Jorge Weintraub. No – I was just saying what your name was for the profile – I can see that you are standing right there. Are you still typing this? Stop it. Let’s just go to the next thought…
I’m a stand up comic in NY, and it seems to be going well.
Ladies, I don’t want to brag, but I was voted “Most Eligible Bachelor” in my Erectile Dysfunction support group
Of course you were fantastic on Saturday! Thank you again for your performance and for the laughs! I hope it's not another couple of years before I see you again! I will send you more info about the reunion soon!
Happy Birthday Bryan, congrats on your movie too ;) Go Indians btw, you better have Cleveland over Boston alliances, since we both know you started in the O-H-I-O!
Ummm....did I miss a memo? Do we WANT our old jobs back?? Sadly enough, I am meeting with my old temp company on Monday. Are you back on Monday or Tuesday? We should do lunch. Oh and if you hear of any sublets available...give me a holla.
Yesterday my cell phone met its untimely end, and Sprint cannot retrieve any of my stored numbers. Could you message or email me your cell number if you get a chance.
Thanks, man!
Purposely wishing you a Happy Birthday a day late so my comment is at the top and doesn't get lost in the shuffle. Good cover huh? Hope you enjoyed it bud. Best of luck this upcoming year.
Listen, hope you can make it - Carl has JUST GRADUATED!!! We are having a big meat cook-out (Carl's favorite) and we will also be roasting hot-dogs. Those are both his very favorite things. Hope you do NOT miss this! Also, it is going to be a surprise party. We are NOT telling Carl. When he gets there we will jump out of the bushes and scream - YOU DID IT!!! Again, listen, hope you can make this - I know it would mean a lot to Carl - especially since you missed his slumber party when you guys were seven. THANKS!
Peggy wanted me to tell you:
'I just think art is FANTASTIC! You go out there, and you create stuff, and you make stuff, and that's just NEAT!'
That's all.
Dear Ashley Parker Angel,
I just wanted to say hi and tell you I think it's great you're getting into the public eye again. You were soooo awesome on Celebrity Cooking Showdown! HUGZ!!!
This man does the only good George Carlin impression on the planet. Doesn't look much like him, but it's right on baby. bah BADDA da baaaahh... (you know who that is.)
This is gonna look like Rob and Mark can't stop commenting, but hey there's two of us. This message is from me Mark (the one with the guitar)
Anyway, Brian has a freakish talent for accents and impressions. I don't think Brian has ever called me and used his own voice. In fact, I'm not sure I even know what his real voice sounds like.
His impressions of George Carlin, Snoop Dogg, and David Lee Roth are scary-good!
And he's swell guy to know, too.
