Hey Kevin.
I finally wanted to Thank You.
You are my Richard Linklater. You have proven that there is an audience out there for good dialogue based storytelling, and comedy that didn't have to rely on gross-out gags.
After seeing Chasing Amy, I knew the kind of movie that I wanted to write, and I was kind of pissed that someone beat me to it. I started to write, let a few people read it, and received kind reviews. I then stopped writing, I felt it was cooler to say that I was "writing" rather than I "wrote", and have it suck. However I just turned 27. I realized that the clock is ticking, and if I were to start a relationship that would spawn a family, I need something tangible to show my kids.

Anyway, sorry to bore y'all. Keep up the great work, it is nice as a fan of movies/people to see someone succeed at what they love, by doing it their own way.

P.S. Thanks For giving me my big screen debut, My round head is in a scene in Dogma. Thanks again.
