I have recently received tons of emails this week asking some tough questions about the blog and why I haven’t posted some of the more interesting emails from the readers. OK, it would be more accurate to say that I received several emails with questions. Well, there were exactly three…but all three deserve some straight-talking answers. I thought I would break from my usual fare and let the readers sit in on a little Q&A from this weeks email. So here we go:
Q: “Ryan, I thought the blog was going to be about filmmaking, and include interesting news for other Vegans and those people who are concerned about diet/health? I don’t see much about your films. Why haven’t you posted some of the more interesting emails you get? You seem to be all over the place with that blog. What is going on?”
-My Mom
A: Mom, you need to give these things more time. Right now I am very busy making the short film I have named “Vegan Love”, it is going just fine, we are having a great time, and it should be finished next month. I will call you later and explain the other things.
Q: “Son, are you eating ok…you turned into an awful picky eater? Why isn’t your film out yet, is there a problem? How come your ‘donations received’ has been stuck at 22% of your goal for so long? No takers? What is going on?”
-My Dad
A: Dad, I have been Vegan for about 6 years now. The film will be out next month. You have no room to talk…you have never donated to anything in your life. I will call soon and tell you everything, I promise.
Q: “My dog “Lenny” disappeared 3 days ago in the Chicago bus station area of downtown. He is a very cute, short-haired terrier with one blue eye and one brown eye. I was wondering if you could ask your readers to help find him or email you with any clues about his disappearance. Then you could forward them to me.
-Slim Phillips (Chicago Slim)
A: Slim, I would be happy to pass that on to my readers. You always want to try the dog pound first, then post signs on the telephone poles asking for people’s help.
NOW, on to other news….
