don't know if this a repost, but the Onion did a really nice interview with Seth MacFarlane recently. Thought some people might be interested.

wow...i find this amazing:

quote:
O: You were scheduled to travel on one of the planes used in the 9/11 attacks. Did the fact that you were nearly part of it affect how you viewed the subsequent fallout?

SM: Not especially. I'm not a fatalist. I'm not a religious person. I'm sure there are close calls that we're not even aware of hundreds of times a year. You cross the street, and if you'd crossed the street two minutes later, you'd have been hit by a car, but you'd never know it. I'm sure that kind of stuff happens all the time. This was obviously a big one. What I felt more than anything else was gratitude toward my travel agent for screwing up my itinerary. It didn't change my perspective on what I do or anything like that. I couldn't really let it. You gotta keep the funny intact.

And his response i think is classic:

quote:

O: You didn't resolve to make the most of every moment?

SM: No, no. If anything, I started drinking more.

Great Interview. I'm really looking forward to American Dad and a new season of Family Guy.

American Dad was freakin' hilarious. Gotta love the alien and fish characters. Jack in the Box man in the basement was comedy gold.
