...Answers to "Think Thoughts" by...

An interesting Slew of Posts welcomed me when I checked into my LinkedIn Account this Morning, the First Thursday of September before I prepared Cali's breakfast (as photographed above). No one knows why this occurred as I'm a particular Reader-at-large; however I was glad these grabbed my Attention and I was able to add my Dime's Worth. After all, with Inflation my 2 Cents worth has soared.  So interesting that I decided to share and list them here so I'd have access to them later  and perhaps others would like to read as well.

Without further adieu (as there may be more) awaiting me, those are next:

No, it doesn't. The THRiLL has always been an Act in #The_Process. It's bin the most exciting Event every single Day thru & thru since Inception. All depends on ONE's Perspective. Enter: my EVENTOLOGY, the Literary Genre, I created on July 25, 1990 that I created and intro'd to the WORLD. Turns 30 on July 25, 2020. That's nearly 1/2 of my Life-to-date. The entire Year 2020 is Year of Eventology & The Eventologist, giving more Insights into my Thinking and how I create the 34 Categories of Holidates that bring the Best of Times to Humanity. Stay tuned.

Same here, Dan. It's as if SRB is looking right over my shoulder. He's on my Bucket List of PPL to meet...someday, somewhere & in someway.

I stopped SUN-BATHING in 1977. Now, 41 years later I have 2 huge BLOTCHES - brown spots on my forehead that are OH SO unsightly. Granted: TAKE THIS IN. I did not go out in the Sun for over 40 years & they appeared. NOT age spots, but SUN SPOTS as the damage caused by the SUN til I was 25 kept right on destroying cells on my once-pretty face. Therefore, a HAT - baseball cap, scarf and sunscreen ARE necessary, especially since there's things happening in our body we never know about and this is ONE of them. Yes, I'm still shocked. Looking for a great #Cosmetic_Surgery who wants to remove these - Chicago based - so we can make a POINT about this as most PPL are not privy, don't know or don't care. Know any? Keep your young ones safe, Parents.

Let's take this one additional STEP. having Sound Mental Health also affects our Cats & Dogs. Do you think it's FUN being cooped up in a small city apartment; looking outside of a WINDOW when you were once (as a species) a wild animal? I'm sure someone - a great animal behaviorist - like Britain's MICHAEL FOX (who I studied under at Washington University in St. Louis in Spring of 1974) would agree with me. Which is WHY I take my Cat, Cali the Calico outside 3-5 times daily (dependent on the weather) for long, lovely walks in our OUTBACK which is "out back" - a place where Nature abounds. Birds sing & soar; Bunnies hop wildly; Squirrels scamper. We actually are WALKING each other. She will run for an entire 1/2 block to get to her Favorite Hiding Space. We all can find a SPACE OF GREEN - give yourself even 30 minutes a DAY, you'll feel like a NEW PERSON & I'm sure this would also CUT DOWN on Outbreaks of Violence, Hate, etc. OUTBACK, not OUTBREAKS. Interesting for Purina & major PET INDUSTRY Officials to check into. When Cali comes in; she drinks water; eliminates, grabs a bite to snack on & then naps; happily as can BE. City CATS must be treated with RESPECT; think of their Welfare FIRST if UR righteous Animal Lover.

Today is Fight Procrastination Day. If you're struggling to get motivated and would like some time management tips from our hard-working Zooers, read on. Or save it till later....

My Response at 7:17 AM CST:

As "The Gatekeeper of EVENTOLOGY," the only Person on the Planet who has created over 1900 #HOLIDATES in 34 Categories since July 25, 1990 - recently featured on NPR's Planet Money, NBC/NYC, CNN, Newsy, WGN Morning News & New York Times, this is a super COOL Event. Your Timing is perfect; it's at the START OF SCHOOL; you've got a groovy Video to grab a person's attn as it did mine, plus you USE very "strong" Words: #Fight. #Procrastination. #Day. We do get lots done because of how High Tech Works; but what I would do is make this into Fight Procrastination Days; hold it on the 6th of every Month so it's embedded. Build on the PARTICIPATION you get every Month. Gives it more of a CHANCE to affect those who need it: The PROS of PRO_crast_in_ (((our))) Nation. And, of course, procrastinating is a global behavior! Have FUN with this! Love it, ZOOers who are DOers, not Procrastinators.

Cali: My InsPURRation.

　

He’s a TV Star – He’s Nick Podany and he’s in Evanston!

ALL IN A DAY’S WORK:  My Work is never ‘Work.’  I sit and write all day long.  What could be more FUN than that.  And, pursuing a Career that you feel is FUN is what really matters. It’s what drives a person to be(come) a success while keeping that passion alive. 

So here I was sitting @ Northwestern University when a young man approaches me asking about how to print a script.  I helped him as I’m good @ things like that.  We start to chat and he tells me he’s from LA where my Kid Sister, Linda Koopersmith (d/b/a:  The Beverly Hills Organizer) has resided and worked for decades now.  When you're conversing, it's a general Rule to always find some sort of ‘common ground’ when you’re networking and making new Friends.  That's just the Nature of (Beauty and) The Beast. It helps melt away that 6 Degrees of Separation that Kevin Bacon made famous which was followed by Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook that has that quotient down to probably between 1.5-2 (@ the most).

After some small but  not trivial talk about the printing process and how his latest Script will print on 2 Sides instead of 1; is it hard to memorize lines and Shakespearean Theatre, it turns out he is none other than:

Nicholas Podany,

an up-and-coming Actor

who’s here LIVE at NorthWestern University for 5 weeks this summer, taking relevant Acting Courses that he finds of interest.  He tells me he’s done some TV.  I kiddingly ask him if he knows Tom Hanks, who is, has been and may always be my favorite Actor.  Nick tells me he attended an Event in which Tom’s Charity was highlighted. Tom was not able to appear. I then told Nick about the time I was to meet Richard Branson in order to attend the Opening of his Virgin Store in Chicago (on Michigan & Ohio Streets) in the 1990s, but Sir Richard had an unforeseen previous engagement. Branson's staffers did personally fax, then email me, relaying the news that he would not be in attendance.  Was I crushed?  I was crushed.  Things like this (unexpected Events) happen when you're a Serial Hot Shot.  I should have asked Nick if he knows Johnny Depp. 

Back in LA, Nick will be a Senior in High School in the Fall. He says that although he is striving for a full-time career in Acting, he does have a solid interest in math and the sciences.  He then tells me that he is often cast on THE HART OF DIXIE SERIES.  So I google THE HART OF DIXIE SERIES as Nick is telling me about the series.  I felt badly I don’t watch it, but I bet I’ll start now. 

That's one of the good things about Networking.  Via Word of Tongue, you're reaching People -- even Generations and Decades older or younger thanyourself. It's a 2-way street.  In techno - geek circles this is known as:

Word of Mouse vs. Word of Mouth. 

Both are highly efficient means. 

THEN:  one click leads itself into another and a super(b) online Article pops up at:

http://www.larchmontbuzz.com/the-hive/young-actor-from-norton-takes-center-stage/

that explains how a Local [Los Angeles] Guy is following his dream. AND, so young, too!  NIck possesses that young, laid back, heart-throb look. He's moldable and adjustable; flexible and this is what's needed.  They call that Cross-Over POW-tential.    

As the Larchmont Buzz (newspaper’s masthead) reads: “Buzzing with News from Larchmont Village, Hancock Park and the Greater Wilshire areas of Los Angeles,” columnist,  Julie Grist wrote and posted this Article back on Wednesday, November 30, 2011 when Nick was 15. 

She relays: 

"Norton Ave. native Nicholas Podany is only 15 years old, but his career in acting and music certainly seems to be taking off. In love with the stage since he was a child at St. James and Open Charter schools, Podany is currently playing a lead role in Hermetically Sealed a new play by Kathryn Graf at the Skylight Theater in Los Feliz.

Podany describes the show as a “psychological drama with an interesting twist” that he hopes will provide the audience with much to think about. He plays a teenage son, drawn to the sofa and video games, in a dysfunctional family who’s secrets begin to unravel them over the course of a day. The LA Times made the show a Critics Choice and called it “quietly haunting.” Hermetically Sealed runs Fri-Sat-Sun evenings from now through December 18th.

Besides doing the schoolwork required as a sophomore at Brentwood High School, Podany also finds the time to write and perform music. You can see him playing drums, guitar, keyboards, bass AND singing on his YouTube channel Across Coves. It’s worth a visit – not only to hear this nascent talent – but also to see his young face and clear voice change over the course of his five videos, and to see the family home and Windsor Square neighborhood featured as the backdrop in many of his productions.

Our bet is this local kid is going to go far."

***

CONTINUING WRiTE ALONG: 

Nick said he started out acting when he was really young.  Some parents do that so that their children get careers that will cast them into the Spotlight. Plus, it’s probably the greatest way in which to network as well.  So, it’s been SOME TIME that Nick has consistently been Acting and getting involved in every AE:  Acting  Endeavor that he can.  How cool is that.  No chip on his shoulder.  Just a nice kid printing out his next script. 

For instance, he will be in 2 productions here at Northwestern – next Friday on August 2 at 9 PM and the following Tuesday, but I can’t remember where he stated it would be held. This is a large campus (after all).  I did give him my card & told him to keep me posted. 

During out conversation at the part when he is telling me about THE HART OF DIXIE series, I googled his Name; flipped on the IMAGE button and voila:

http://www.google.com/search?q=nicholas+podany&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=M8PuUdW5EYrQyAHsnYG4DA&sqi=2&ved=0CDkQsAQ&biw=1280&bih=855#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=3BXpC05srgjUeM%3A%3BmtrzCKgWNSX14M%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.ksitetv.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2012%252F11%252FHA207d_-0378b.jpg-3fa3e68a-t3-290x160.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.ksitetv.com%252Ftag%252Fnicholas-podany%3B290%3B160

pops up.  Little do you know who you are going to meet. Let that serve as Inspiration to all of you reading this, Grasshopper!

And darn, I should have asked him for his Autograph before he slipped away to an exciting life and game-plan that is unfolding before him. 

 

With the Moral being this:  if you can make your "WORK" not seem like "WORK" as Nick illustrated to me, you're on the right ('write' to us writers) Road to Success and Fulfilment. 

Guess what:  Nick Podany is not 'local' anymore.

BRIT WEEK ARRIVES IN LA: Friday, April 23, 2010...

Chicago, IL USA:

If a Genie granted me 3 Wishes the First is to win the latest 2010 Scriptapalooza Contest and the 2ND one would be to attend:

BRIT WEEK – Film & TV Summit on Friday, April 23, 2010 at the Beverly Hilton.
That’s tomoro for those reading this.

BRIT WEEK is in association with the British Academy of Film & Television Arts in Los Angeles. As their Ad in Daily Variety (for Wednesday, March 24, 2010) states: It is the place where industry leaders in film, TV & digital media meet – with opportunities in the UK for Film & TV content creators.

Isn’t that every one who pens a script? And those serious about their career - especially when crossing 'The Great @lantic Pond?'

Resources. Networking. Programming trends and the Big Question of: Why do British Projects succeed or fail in the US and vica versa. I’m sure Paul and Mick have known that answer for decades now.

For those parties & individuals interested in this Event, there is a website: www.britweek.org/film or you may contact LINDA BUCKLEY directly at: lbuckley(at)reedbusiness(dot)com for additional info.

The Highlight - one of the many -- will be their Gala Dinner that honors Sir Richard Branson (who puts the 'Pop' into Popular Culture and the 'Dare' into DareDevil). A Live Performance by David Archuleta is also slated. The evening's proceeds will benefit two significant charities, namely: Save the Children and Virgin Unite.

Yes, attending BRIT WEEK – Film & TV Summit would be my Second Wish. Besides the fact that Dick Wolf of Wolf Films is going to be 1 of the keynote speakers, one of 6 pictured on Page 7 of Variety, a publication that should be read just to ‘keep up with it all.’ I believe Dick is from LAW & ORDER fame, one of my very favorite TV programs.

There’s no time to delay!

My Third & Final Wish? Besides wishing for 3 more? Well, that’s a Secret – that may appear in a Script for the 13TH Annual Scriptapalooza Contest!
