Met this fella at the airport yesterday. I noticed he was carrying what looked to be about a 2,000 year old bowl from ancient China. Indeed, that's exactly what it was. He had just returned from giving a lecture and said he prefers to carry items like this on his person rather in luggage.
His name is Dr. Michael Weber. Turns out he is also a resident of Huntington Beach like me. He has lectured all over the world and worked as a creative consultant on movies such as 'Forest Gump' and 'Casino'. So, naturally I told him about my published book and he gave me some good advice and contacts on how to turn it into a documentary/film.
But, the best advice he gave me? "Just do the work!" Do good work. That's what matters no matter what success or failure follows, for if your ship comes in, you'd best be ready.
(by the way, I got the aisle seat on the plane, Michael got the middle seat)
