I ...Oh, Andy, that is so nice, but so exaggerated.<br /><br />I am but a footnote in your brilliant career, which has included staff positions on "The Merv Griffin Show," where you met celebrities of the caliber of Sir Lawrence Olivier, Dustin Hoffman, Meryl Streep, and the late Winston Churchill and "Seinfeld," where you penned the celebrated episode "The Opposite" and so many more, remaining in close contact with Jason Alexander today, and your myriad writing credits for programs like "Cheers," "Third Rock from the Sun," "Masterpiece Theatre," and "Jersey Shore."<br /><br />No, aside from my reviewing and editing all of your material in those days, bolstering you and holding you up in your early comedy appearances (of which I attended all), single-handedly getting you through your drug and alcohol problems, and washing, folding, and packing up all your stuff when you left for L.A., I did very, very little.<br /><br />Hope everything is going well with the radio show, comic strip, TV pilots, and feature film.<br />See you soon; I've been invited to Nicholson's bash too!<br /><br />PerryPerry Blockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13439590071776264237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892510436199255267.post-73804040549828353892010-01-31T17:05:56.867-05:002010-01-31T17:05:56.867-05:00Congratulations on the beginnings of a long and fr...Congratulations on the beginnings of a long and fruitful blogging career. Ever since those days many years ago back in Philadelphia when I tapped you as a trusted sounding board for my comedy writings before I moved to L.A. and wound up writing for Cheers and Seinfeld (lesser credits available upon request) I knew your noggin had a knack for bloggin'. Forgive the rhyming, and the fact blogging wasn't yet invented then. Bottom line - this man adds a needed layer of wit to the wild web. All the best!<br /><br />Andy<br /><br />oppositeandy.com<br /><br />Andy CowanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892510436199255267.post-54911330791379457342010-01-31T01:08:25.607-05:002010-01-31T01:08:25.607-05:00Thank you, Sandra!

You were right: he’s charming, generous, nothing like the character he plays on TV, and who can forget the la-a-adies!!! Must have been a blast writing for him!<br /><br />PerryPerry Blockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13439590071776264237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892510436199255267.post-78589766642974583662010-01-30T16:50:36.832-05:002010-01-30T16:50:36.832-05:00Fun to read your work, Perry!

It will be called either "Gee, Don't Perry's Legs Look Ridiculous in a Toga?" or "I Cutius (Formerly)." I haven't made up my mind yet.<br /> <br />Other than that, nothing else planned.<br /> <br />So, how's by you? <br /><br />PerryPerry Blockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13439590071776264237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892510436199255267.post-5869082194837435422010-01-28T21:38:54.532-05:002010-01-28T21:38:54.532-05:00And what ficticious works of fiction are in the wo...And what ficticious works of fiction are in the works for 2010?
