Where's the funny?

About Me

Love the California sun! I moved from Michigan in January and still haven't gotten used to it. Despite the mind numbing traffic and crazy high cost of living, I can say I don't see myself going back to the Midwest any time soon. Sorry mom.I work in the entertainment field (me and every every other chucklehead in this town). Writing mainly, but I also act. I've written original comedy revues, teleplays, and features (check out parkerpeahorn.com). One script placed in Slamdance and another was co-written with Dave Coulier (he was Uncle Joey on Full House, remember?). Anyway, love that writing thing.And just in case you're wondering, I'm cursed with two names. I won't even try to explain. Just call me whatever you want. Just don't call me crazy. Oh snap.

My Interests

Writing, movies, plays, friends and family, writing, exercising, cooking, being a health freak, writing, acting, reading, volunteering, did I mention writing?

I'd like to meet:

Friendly people. Preferably normal ones. This whole Internet way of making friends kind of freaks me out, but I have to believe there are sane people out there. Please don't prove me wrong.

Music:

Dave Matthews Band, Barenaked Ladies, U2, and Coldplay, are obvious choices. I also like Aimee Mann, For Wishes, Denison Witmer, Marsen Jules, Sting, Johnny Cash, Led Zeppelin. The Twilight Singers are good, but dark. Very dark.

Movies:

Older movies are the best. Casablanca, The Bicycle Thief, It's a Wonderful Life (sappy, but good), Some Like It Hot, Ordinary People, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Tender Mercies, North by Northwest and Kramer vs. Kramer.More recent favs: The Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Magnolia, Cast Away, Crash, Rainman, Short Cuts, The Big Lebowski, About Schmidt, Million Dollar Baby, What the Bleep Do We Know?

Television:

The Office is the best. Too bad Arrested Development went off the air. Seinfeld, The West Wing and Cheers is missed too.

Books:

Any book by David Sedaris, Conversations with God, A Course in Miracles, A People's History of the United States, A Return to Love, The Adventures of Huck Finn, The Catcher in the Rye

Heroes:

I guess it depends on what you think a hero is. To me, it's someone who runs into danger when others are running out. It's also someone who takes on a life challenging event and stops at nothing to overcome it. So if you're that person, you're my hero.
