Just under the one year mark!
Okay, folks. It's 11:37 pm in the City of Angels and I have just finished shooting - count 'em - FOUR new MATT'S PENTAMETER episodes. Now, I am aware that I have left you all in the lurch for a long time and that none of you probably even read my blogs anymore, but trust me, there's some fun stuff.
I will humbly admit that I am not letter-perfect on one or two of these. As a perfectionist, I hate myself, but I also realize that if I took any more time, I would never do this. So.
Four new episodes that need only to be edited (really, only opening and closing credits and some color balancing) and then will make their way onto the world wide interweb.
Two new episodes are in the works for possible production this week, with the help of my friend Patrick. (Let's just say one involves a candy bar and the other requires "audience participation." Stop thinking what you're thinking. It's not that.)
I hope to corner JLo on Saturday to help me learn how to edit and to get the theme music out of mothballs. God willing, I'll even be able to use the new graphics!
Here's to new episodes!!

THIS is cool
Shakespeare born: 23 April 1564
King James Bible written: 1611
So, Shakespeare was 46 years old (going on 47) when the Bible was finished and published.
Now, there's been discussion that Shakespeare was one of the men who penned the King James version of the Bible.
Here's all I'm sayin':
Psalm 46
46th word from the beginning and 47th word from the end.
Pss.46
[1] God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
[2] Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
[3] Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
[4] There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
[5] God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
[6] The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
[7] The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
[8] Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
[9] He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
[10] Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
[11] The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
I'm just sayin'.

Lots going on.... let me know if you're in the LA area!
Howdy, kids! Plans, plans, plans... so here's the skinny on Bill out here in Lalaland - I'm doing MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR at the Globe Theatre in Topanga, I have a callback for MEASURE FOR MEASURE at the Eclectic, which I may not be able to take (if I get it) because I'm prepping my production of MACBETH.......
