    Hello, Jim,
    So glad to hear from you.
    Since we worked together, I had my first featured role in an Indie film,
    written/directed by Alex Karpovsky. I'm doing another BU student film
    in November.
    From the look of it you've been quite busy. Would love to work with you again.
    Break a leg at Nick's this weekend..sounds like fun.

    Also, we will shoot our Talk Show at some point. I actually have an idea for that. I'll keep you updated.

    Best,
