As a person of average height, if it's ok with you I'll just think of you as Hollis Jane, actor.

Mostly unrelated note - predictably you've been asked about Peter Dinklage (and I do love the show, Tyrion is probably tied with Arya for my favorite character, etc).

However, the first time that I really noticed a serious, meaty role for a little person was in the HBO series "Carnivale", with Michael J. Anderson as Sampson. I definitely appreciated that he was there in no way for comic relief, he wasn't a sideshow attraction - he was The Boss and just happened to be a little person. If you haven't seen that series, I recommend it highly.

Regardless, you sound like an awesome person and I hope you can find serious roles that you can really dig in to, rather than just gigs to pay the bills (though I think there's nothing wrong with work that pays the bills)!

What's your take on the failure to pass of the Oregon marijuana initiative?

It's a pseudo-science based mishmash of self-help ramblings along with the deeper level evil galactic overlord Xenu and DC-8 space planes scifi stuff...

...except when it comes to taxes. Then it's totally a real religion. Totally.

This is fantastic.

I often think how we wander through life in our own little bubbles, our spheres of influence. There are times when I'm in a crowd, semi-consciously judging people based on their outward appearances and my own cultural biases, that it just hits me - they all have their own stories.

Dude. I now have a Muchas within a couple blocks of my house in Portland. My caloric intact has increased dramatically. Typical - carne asada burrito, 3 rolled tacos with guacamole. Now they also do churros, and flan of course. Moo.
