"it's very postmodern"
1:53 PM Paul: yeah

Wednesday - 9/6/06

2:01 PM Michael: fuck i'm bored
entertain me with hilarity
Paul: i already have. your turn.
Michael: i replied
i am finding youtube stuff that amuses me
2:02 PM i could send that to you, but i doubt you'd find it as hilarious
Paul: can't watch it at work.
Michael: bah
2:04 PM Paul: for reals. how is your job going?
Michael: it's fine, but not much to do right now
ps i was going to come to nyc this weekend, but i cant
Paul: eff you
2:05 PM Michael: right back at ya big guy
2:06 PM how's new line?
Paul: meh
Michael: meh indeed
you practically run that place
2:07 PM i heard from someone who works there "they don't give him the pay or credit he deserves, but without paul cannon, we'd have nothing."
Paul: right
2:08 PM actually, i kept a messenger waiting last week for 30 minutes, so new line is taking the $5 waiting fee out of my next pay check. how about that?
Michael: bastards
that jackass had it coming
i could tell all the way from here
5 minutes
2:14 PM Paul: are you going to take the lsats this year?
2:15 PM Michael: december 4
Paul: wow
heavy
Michael: weight has nothing to do with it
2:16 PM Paul: classy
2:17 PM Michael: that's what doc brown says to marty when he uses the term "heavy" in 1955
i thought you would get it, god
Paul: i did. that's why i called you classy
jackass
2:18 PM Michael: oh, then i called you classy back. but instead gmail sent the above two lines
Paul: riiiiight
i'm bored. BORED
Michael: yeah, those fuckers are always messing with me
i know, i'm bored too
if only i could solve the answer
2:19 PM Paul: if we can hit the bullseye the rest of the dominoes will fall like some house of cards
2:21 PM Michael: checkmate
2:22 PM Paul: indeed
so, uh, move to ny and hang out with me
we'll start a business where neither of us wakes up before 10 am and we both get out of work by 4:30 and we're rich
2:23 PM Michael: oh if only it were possible
not the business, the moving to new york
2:24 PM Paul: well, maybe if you go to columbia. eh?
Michael: then yes
dont hold your breath
2:25 PM if i go to law school - still a big if - it wouldn't be for at least a year and more likely two years
Paul: right. so why take the lsats now?
Michael: unless Paul’s Discount Law School accepts me early
2:26 PM because it's a process to apply and if i want to go by fall 2007 i have to take the lsat's now
Paul: wow
that's nuts
Michael: it is silly, isn't it
2:27 PM Paul: they should let you in based on good looks alone
2:30 PM Michael: that's what i've been saying, but everyone keeps telling me law is about more than looks, although none have explained how that can be
i told them law school is the modeling agency of grad schools
Paul: how is anything about more than looks?
yes, vanity is the law of the land
or something
mirrors, our gavels
?
Michael: combs our juries
2:32 PM and makeup our bailiffs
wherefore art thine principles you twisted code of laws?!
Paul: plastic surgery our bill of rights
Michael: runways our courtrooms
and so on
2:33 PM ad infinitum
2:34 PM Paul: to the end of law school
Michael: have you ever thought of going to dental school?
i always took you for a dentist
2:35 PM Paul: i think that's the most insulting thing you've ever said to me
2:36 PM Michael: well that's what i intended
2:37 PM you anti-dentite bastard
2:38 PM Paul: hahaha
2:39 PM well, i always took you for a...a....dentist's assistant
Michael: we prefer the term hygenist
2:42 PM any progress on the movie front?
2:43 PM Paul: today we're having a meeting to discuss making the first 15 pages in october or november. but it's slow. and we're broke. and no one likes us.
2:45 PM Michael: that's a shame, but what you guys lack in funds and friends, you make up for in determination and talent
2:47 PM Paul: you're nice, mike. my determination waxes and wanes, though.
2:48 PM Michael: naturally, so it does with everyone
abraham lincoln gave up on having a political career at one point, and i've always said you're the abraham lincoln of cinema
2:49 PM Paul: hahaha
well, when my son dies, i'll run for president of the dga
Michael: by the way the above statements are the nicest things i plan to say to anyone today so you better enjoy them
2:50 PM Paul: oh, i'm putting them on my walls at home.
2:52 PM Michael: good, then when you look at them you'll think of me, and when you think of me you'll have a beer
2:53 PM Paul: i think of you a lot, then
brb
2:54 PM me: ok
6 minutes
3:01 PM Paul: ah, life
i think i might go to grad school in a few years.
if i'm not rich
Michael: in film?
3:02 PM Paul: no. that's useless. not philosophy/politics either, but maybe something of that bent...
3:03 PM Michael: like dental school
i know your inner thoughts
Paul: you know TOO MUCH
3:04 PM i mean, to be honest, i'd love to be a famous/paid filmmaker, but even if i were, i don't think i'd do it every year of the rest of my life
3:05 PM Michael: you mean you'd pursue other side-occupations or you'd take time off occasionally?
3:06 PM Paul: i'd take time off. make films for a few years, then maybe go do something else for a few more years, then return to filmmaking. etc.
Michael: that's cool
i hear ya
3:07 PM i gtg
thanks for keeping me entertained
