I found this beautiful resignation speech by Sarah Palin deeply inspiring;
So inspiring, I recorded my own resignation speech (for some reason Vimeo cut the sound off the first few seconds);
Resignation from Trompe Setsuled on Vimeo. Current Mood:  hungry Current Music: "Fireflies" - Patti Smith

You said "gatekeeper and keymaster"!!!
and you even cracked yourself up a couple of times! hahahaha
I had a really hard time keeping a straight face, often from bits I hadn't changed very much. I got a strange glee from substituting "milk" for "energy" in many places--the fact that she actually brought up the dairy industry in her speech cinched it.
I mean this as a HUGE compliment... your voice is like a young Wallace Shawn! I've never heard you speak before... very cool! If you go into theatre you could play his son, or some ghost from the past. Shawn is one of my favourite playwrights.
Thank you. I love Wallace Shawn too, though I didn't know he was a playwright. I was actually doing a not-so-great Sarah Palin impression--I don't actually talk like that. this video is an example of my normal speaking voice.
Here's an interview where he discusses his plays.
Very cool. Now I really like the guy.
I love all of your films, by the way!
Thank you.
