I'm not really famous. If I were going to be, it would be as a writer. I've had a few (very short) things published on my college campus (including a brief skit that was performed), but that's about it except for a few letters to the editor of the state newspaper, and any idiot can have those published (and quite a few do:smirk: ).

But I don't think I could ever just drop everything and write for a living.

...I'm a cartoonist for my college paper...but yeah, I don't see a career in it. Although I'm evidently a career college student because I'm pushing thirty and still haven't graduated.

But yeah, can't really make a career out of it. Since I don't have that many ideas.

(Incidentally, I also managed to grab a piece of the stump they dug up :big_grin:.) When the U. S. Missouri got moved from WA to Hawaii, I took my puppet along and he got on the local news.

Last November I sent in an audition tape to JHC, but they haven't replied yet

I was too. And the sad part was, that there were only about 115 people in my grade.:smirk:

When I think about it there are quite a few things that can claim fame for.

My last name "Rytter", my family is the only one in the local area with that name.

Technician in Tv-programs on a local TV-Station in Århus (camera, light, editing & sound) And also on 4 short movies.

Sound Technician on a local radio station in Dronninglund. Later on also Program host.

Currently I can claim to be the only one in my classes without any days off.

I think thats about it.
