'Ring'...it's for me!

So, I'm sitting at my desk at home today and I get a phone call from a number I don't recognize, but I answer it anyway, and the voice says"Billy? Hey, it's me Rob. How's it going, man?" It had been a few days, so I figured he'd forgotten about it, but sure enough Rob Schneider called and we talked for a bit. He wanted to know what I thought of the movie (Big Stan) and we talked about all his training and the breaks and bruises he suffered trying make the fights more authentic. The fights are great in the movie, by the way. He kicks some major butt. I was surprised. I don't know when the movie is actually going to hit the theaters, but go watch it. I'm living proof that he actually cares about what his fans think. We actually had a pretty cool talk. He's a real down to earth guy. I guess stuff like that is one of the few things that are a perk of being in Hollywood instead of back home. But I still miss home...

Hey! Guess who I met today?

Wednesday, October 17, 2007

So, last night I saw a screening in Burbank for a new Rob Schneider movie called Big Stan (where he has to learn how to fight to keep from being violated in prison!) and I had a few questions about the movie when I left, so I said, "Well, next time I see him I'll have to ask him." Well, who should I talk to today but Mr. Schneider himself (what are the odds, huh?). He was pretty surprised that the movie was even screening, so he actually asked me a few questions himself. So we talked for a few minutes and then he asked if it would be cool if he got my number so he could give me a call later and talk some more. Obviously, I gave it to him, but how cool was that, you know?
