New President and challenging times. It’s our time to show some courage and perspective. We all need to get involved. The new administration made some comments that the internet will be used to get all our opinions on a health care plan and how the new stimulus plans will be executed.  We must demand that. We all need to get heard now more then ever before.

So you might have heard the news (it arrived in the press) my wife, Jane is pregnant. We are very excited and look forward to the new adventures that will follow. Little baby stuff everywhere and I just cleaned the house!

I had a great end of the year spending the holidays with family and friends and that trickled over to the New Year as well. I had the two extremes of weather. Going from the cold and the snow of Michigan for a play my nieces were in then to New York to treat another niece and Sister to some shows and great chow. Then to work on a project in Mexico. Lots of travel but only the cat that stayed home complained.

I’m not really one to make New Year’s resolutions. I feel like my life has been on a pretty good path for some years now and I just continue on it. Of course every year I vow to take everything to the next level.  More horsepower, better mileage, more charity, more tools, some success, etc.  I think “upgrade” is the word for 2009, but not focused in a selfish or greedy way but in a giving and abundance way. I wish great happiness, great health and great success to you and your family.

My movie “Crazy on the Outside” is scored and finished…done…what a wonderful labor of love.  The company will update you on release plans; our focus will be release in the spring sometime. I’m really proud of it and have learned so much more of what goes into making a movie. As an actor I saw one side of it. As a producer and director I was involved with every last detail.

I’m also just about done with doing voice-over work for Toy Story 3. That is scheduled to come out in 2010. I have loved all the Toy Story movies and am proud of this one as well. It’s about…sorry you will have to wait…its wonderful.

I’ve got a few more things up my sleeve for this year and look forward to a great year. I know I’ll be busier than ever though with a new little one breaking all my cool car models in the house.
