I spent a lot of my younger days being fueled by the anger of being somehow slighted. I put a lot of that behind me in order to gain a sense of inner peace. However, as a result, I've grown complacent in both my creative endeavors and career.
Tom -- your bitterness about this incident has inspired me to give in to my own angry demons and to once again become inspired by my need to chump chumps.
Thanks!
(I do hope this is a work that ends up with Gary appearing on The Best Show which would be amazing but either way...)
