RE: RAT Grad School
I know dan very well. I was just kidding.
BTW Dan did go to grad school at UCLA for a year but he hated it and went
back to Seattle.
I didn't go to grad school. I didn't have time, I was to busy doing exactly
what I wanted to do all the time. In fact I haven't had time to sleep.
I do think grad school is an individual choice but I think it can sometimes
be a cop out. Like "Life is hard so let me go back to school for a couple
years." And I agree with Jonathan Harris/Ezra Buzzington (secret identity)
about PATP actors. If somebody comes to an audition and sez "I just finished
training at...." I usually say (to myself) "great, come back in a year or
two when you've learned how to act again. Of course any good training
program in almost anything, physical fitness, meditation, painting whatever,
is going to screw you up until you've really assimilated what you've
learned.
So there.
