Saturday night, we were at a party hosted by one of the studios where my wife teaches Pilates. There was a guy there who I was never really introduced to, but reminded me of someone. By the end of the night, I had decided he bore an uncanny resemblance to William Zabka - mid '80's bully of such films as Karate Kid and Back to School. As we were preparing to leave, I finally walked over and said, "Does anyone ever tell you you look like 'Johnny' from Karate Kid...you know...'Finish him, Johnny!'." He says, "I am him." Why don't I keep these thoughts to myself in this town? I was so embarrassed. He was very nice about it and we had a great conversation. In fact, he recently wrote and directed a music video send-up of his role in Karate Kid. So enjoy the video of the song, "Sweep the Leg" from No More Kings.
I also started taking an improv class at Upright Citizens Brigade Saturday. I was feeling the call back to improv and launched into this one from the ground level. I'm going into it like I don't know anything..learning their method, their approach, their emphases. We'll see how it goes.
