    Hey Russell: can you mention when the interview with Piers will be broadcast in the U.S., if it will.

    And, it would be fun to be able to buy the easter bunny as a stuffed animal–is it available? Will you sell it on your website? It would be funny if the bunny wore black tight fitting jeans and yards of belts like you used to do.

    I am enjoying the films and things you are creating these days. keep making new stuff—very entertaining. I dont really care if you change your look, hair, whatever…its all a kind of creative journey, no? Nice to see someone evolve as we humans tend to do.

    Kathy, look on the NBC Universal store and Amazon for a plush version of E.B. the bunny. Also eBay. I saw them on those sites recently and considered buying one, even though I’m way too old for such things.

    Thanks!

    Starleigh:

    Foolish love is so much more fun than dignity. Embrace the bunny. Cheers.

    Just found out that the ‘Arthur’ premiere is in Sydney on 14 April!!!! Meeting or even glimpsing my long time hero (Russell) would be thrilling beyond belief for me – his comedy has inspired and saved my life – I would love to say thank you…Russell has said that we should all meet our heroes so I’m going to try my best using every legal and rational (and maybe a little irrational) means I can think of!

    Tickets to the premiere seem only available to New Zealand prize winners but hopefully some will be available in Australia too ? Otherwise will see you in the fan crowd xx

    (Sorry for posting here, just really excited)

    “In a world of role playing personalities, those few people who don’t project a mind made image – and other are some even on TV, in the media, and the business world – but function from the deeper core of their Being, those who do not attempt to appear more than they are but are simply themselves, stand out as remarkable and are the only ones who truly make a difference in this world. They are the bringers of the new consciousness. Whatever they do becomes empowered because it is in alignment with the purpose of the whole. Their influence, however, goes far beyond what they do, far beyond their function. Their mere presence – simple, natural, unassuming – has a transformational effect on whoever they come into contact with.”
