I think there are four or five interesting pockets where a lot of cool technology companies are getting started. Chicago is one of them. New York is certainly another. Silicon Valley really dominates. And you're seeing some stuff out of Boston and Seattle and down South.

The Dead was cool It's a great horror story. I went to the casting director of this movie and talked to him then they called my agent and had me come in and read for it and they wanted to use me.

Now that I finally have the time for it this web surfing stuff turns out to be as interesting and fun and addictive as you've all been telling me. Zipping from link to link chasing an idea across the noosphere sucking up information like a killer whale - way cool.

I just really like fun cool interesting quirky girls. And sometimes you find that in 6'2 model bodies and sometimes they're short and brunette. All shapes and sizes - it's really about the personality. That sounds cliche but it's so freaking true!

If you work in casting it's sort of not cool to want to act. A lot of people think that casting directors are frustrated actors but it wasn't true with any of the casting people I knew.

I've always thought vampires were interesting because they live forever they're always well-financed they dress well you know what I mean? And they're like cool. Usually vampire - you've never seen a broke vampire. Have you?

I think it's interesting to have a cool character not look so cool you know?

Do you want to be an actor or do you want to be a celebrity? I made that decision when I went to Juilliard. I wanted to be an actor. So if I get the opportunity to be an actor and do some cool fun and interesting projects I'm going to do that.

I love David Caruso. I know it's not cool but I do. I watch CSI: Miami. I think he's interesting.

There's no point in swanning through and being cool as a breeze in every scene. It's not really that interesting. Even if you're a superhero.
