I don't like to let people know that I'm not good at something...but I'm going to give in and let out a little secret. I've told you in the past that my brother beat me at golf. This does not mean I'm not good at golf, quite the contrary. I'm a pretty decent golfer, my brother just happens to be a more decent golfer. So, here it goes. I suck at pool. That's right people, one place I will not try to pick up girls is at a pool hall or by playing pool in a bar. Scenario A: Hot girl walks up to me at bar, I get her a drink, we chit-chat, she asks if I would like to play pool...here is where I must immediately say no. In theory it may be cute to not be great at something, but sucking as bad as I do is not sexy. Scenario B: there is none since I won't be playing pool with attractive girls watching.
The game is fun, though. We played it quite a bit while in Wyoming (the house had a table). Oh, and just for the record, my mother rocks at ping pong. Ask my brother about that...do it...ask him...he loves telling you about it.
Oh, so I was working background on the set of "Christmas in New York." It's an Italian film, which of course made me miss my time spent in Italy a few years ago, and was a blast. I learned a ton being on set. The crew was very fast at changing the camera positions and the director was really nice. Also, two I think pretty famous Italian actors were playing the scene, and it was awesome watching them, even if I didn't understand everything they said (it was in Italian, I'm not just stupid). Drawback: overnight shoot.
That's what's going on in my world people...and it does not involve playing pool publically.
