Exactly. One of them was really scary, though. I would post the link, but I don't have it anymore. It's about leading a point with your mouse through a labyrinth without touching the walls. You go on for about 4 levels or so, and when you reach then end, an ugly witch goes full-screen and yells at you.

I thought the best part was when she removed all of her clothes and danced around the room.

Whenever anyone says "Watch this" or "Don't watch this" I instinctively hit the mute button and drag the window so that only the top third of the frame is visible. Then I put cheesecloth over the monitor, and I stand back about 15 feet.
So nyah nyah. Didn't scare me!

Well, it's been a bit quiet because my damned phd requires too much time. i have no projects coming up for the next month but maybe in march or april i can start doing some new "acting" in a student movie. That is normally the period where students have to make projects for school, so...
Thanks for asking

I'm still waiting for Marlon's release of Bohemian Rhapsody, staring Marlon - in character for each voice.

Trust me, i haven't forgotten about that. I just need some time to search for the material and prepare myself. These things usually take a lot of time to complete : finding good source material, preparing the lines and sketch, editing the footage etc etc. It's just that the phd uses some much of my time. But don't worry, i will not let you down on this one.

No problem. How much can you pay ? That Beverly Hills mansion does not come cheap, you know ...
