Last night I posed a question on Facebook about giving a dog a treat made of bull penis, and whether or not this was appropriate. Granted, it wasn't me giving a dog the bull penis treat, it was someone else. The thing is; it was all a joke, why do I care if a dog eats a bull penis. Anyway, since then, it seems that some people have become offended by my mention of the bull penis treat, and have decided to let me know about it via Facebook, text messaging and email.
Here's the thing, IT"S A BULL PENIS! It's not like I'm talking about a man penis. Gees, it's just a dog eating it anyway. That's better than most things dogs eat. Actually, if you think about it, there could be bull penis in a lot of things we eat on a daily basis. For example, hot dogs, I'm sure are filled with bull penis. Bologna is also probably filled with bull penis. I can't imagine how spam is not filled with bull penis. In China, bull penis is considered a delicacy. Seriously, look it up.
So I guess the point here is, I seem to have maybe offended a few folks with all this talk of the bull penis, and if you read it, I'm sorry... my bad. However, I just want to go on the record that as a writer and entertainer of sorts, I believe that there is nothing wrong with using the term bull penis. In fact, I'll go as far to say I've seen way more offensive things on the Internet besides bull penis. I mean, if I really wanted to offend people I would have come up with something way better than bull penis. I was just making a statement about K-9 dental treats that just happened to be made from 100% bull penis. I guess in the future I'll think twice about using the term bull penis and anything like it. So from now on, I will not say bull penis, I will say bull dick.

Changes... Sketches... Chachi Arcola...
So, for those 3 of you who actually go to my website, (www.jlpfilms.com) I'm sure you've noticed that the site basically looks like crap right now. I want to apologize to you for that, but I am in the middle of having the site re-modeled. Once completed, I will let you all know, so you can give me feedback on it. So please, bear with me.
In the mean time, let’s talk shop. I had the privilege of working with In Rare Form again last week. We shot a new sketch video based on their improv comedy, so look for that to hit the inter webs later this week. Once again, I continue to be amazed at how awesome those guys can be. Hopefully, you should see more collaboration with those guys real soon.
You want more celebrity sightings, you got'em. I was having breakfast at Bob's Big Boy in Burbank, when Heather looks up and says, "There's Scott Baio." I turned and sure enough, there he was... and no, he didn't ask me for any Raspberry syrup. He was with his family and true to my code of conduct; I don't bother actors that are out and about unless they are named Patrick Duffy. This is actually the second know actor I've seen at Bob's. A few months back, I ran into Mathew Lillard there as well. Of course Bob's is just across from Warner Brothers and right down from NBC, so I imagine if I went there more often, I would see a lot of different folks.
Anyway, that's all I got for now. Keep an eye out for iConnect from In Rare Form; it should be coming to the Youtubes very soon.

A Year In LA
So I've made it! (Depending on the time frame you use) I have been in L.A. for a year now. That's an amazing feet if you think about it for a moment. Basically, a year ago, I loaded up my car, and moved 3,000 miles away from everything I knew, without any idea where I'd live, no job lined up, and no real plan other than, I knew this was the place I needed to be. To date, at least from the outside looking in, it's been a pretty boring adventure. There have been no swinger’s type moments. I've not been to any crazy Hollywood parties. Well actually, I did attend my first Hollywood party two weeks ago. It was an interesting affair with a lounge act and a vat of black out margaritas. But other than that... I don't have anything awesome to report on.
So I want to take a moment to thank a few people who have made my L.A. experience awesome. First I want to thank Staples Office Supply Superstore, without you I might have found a real job sooner and not spent so much of my savings trying to make ends meet while being completely miserable for 3 months. I would like to thank in and Out Burger for always giving me the runs. Then there's Ralph's (Kroger for those back east) for being so damn close. I would also like to thank EA Active for the Wii for helping me get back into the swing of losing weight. Other's I'd like to thank include: My parents for still talking to me. My car for not dying yet; my former roommates for reminding me why I hate having roommates; McDonalds for the dollar menu; Trader Joe's for making me want to eat healthier; My former roommates for dicking me over as often as they could. Jessie and Mindy Spencer, you guys are great. UCB and Nick Wiger for showing me that sketch writing can be fun despite not being my favorite. All the members of In Rare Form for letting me be part of their family. Cris Aris for giving me swine flu; B&H for giving me a place to spend my money; Heather Horton you're just awesome, and finally LA traffic for making me afraid of little Asian people.
Without all of you, none of this would have been possible!
