Nobody’s Sherfect, Pithead.

One thing is for certain – I learn from my mistakes. So trust me when I tell you: not all hobos are friendly.

And I had a nice, new learning experience the other day, during an audition for Gold Bond Insurance. The commercial involved a family picnic, so I was brought in to the audition room with a wife and kids to see how we interacted. When the camera was pointed at me and I was asked to say my name and tell a little something about myself, I was interrupted by a Blackberry ringing. My Blackberry.

There I am, above, fumbling to shut it off. A pro's pro. Did I book the job? Hell no.

Nice going, Dad.
