The Monday Morning Memo

Click That Bald Guy (above) to see one of the animated videos he created for Peter Nevland. The video I’ve chosen, George, is about a destitute old gentleman Peter met while washing his car one day. Peter tells the story in his own voice while the incomparable Paul Finley accompanies him on guitar.

“I made a mistake today. (Friday, Oct. 21.) I was moving my cursor across the page when I accidentally opened a link that I never realized was there.
It appears that in the nav panel on the right hand side of the page at MondayMorningMemo.com is a link to an iTunes podcast because I suddenly found myself there for the first time in my life. Heck! It’s evidently been there since December, 2005. I wonder how many people subscribe to it. Maybe Dave or Barry will know. I should probably ask one of them.” – Roy H. Williams

Random Quote:

“DAN: Why would you tell the story that way?

ZOE: I tell it to myself both ways. Honest to god, I don’t know which one is the truth.

DAN: I don’t think what happened was your fault. You can’t control what you feel. You’re not the villain here.

ZOE: I hope that’s true. I think that’s true. But here’s one thing I do know; no one ever sees themselves as playing that role. Right? But there they are. There’s a villain in every story. And maybe that’s why [pause]  maybe the only one who can play that role is the one who can’t see it happening.

WAITER: Can I get you a wine list?

DAN: Yeah.

ZOE: Yeah.”
