Dorks part deux

It should be stated that John and I are still addressing producer notes.
We sent our most recent polish back to them today.
Minor stuff really, mostly clarification.

As it turns out, one of the producers passed the geek check.
(Death in the Family, not The Killing Joke)

Dorks

(Producer) to Nick two Fridays ago --
"We're going to be shooting in six or seven weeks. I know I've said that before, but this time I mean it."

I'm thinking of starting a writers group

Not one where we read each other's shit and give notes.
No, more like AA.
"Hi, I'm Nick and I'm a writer. I've been writing for as long as I can remember. For the most part, it's only brought me pain and rejection."

Writers Support Group.
It's coming...

Another Gem - this time a joke

Two boys are playing hockey on a pond in a
Buffalo when one of the boys is suddenly attacked
by a crazed Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other
boy takes his hockey stick, shoves it under the
dog's collar, twists it and breaks the dog's neck,
saving his friend.

A Buffalo reporter is standing by, sees the incident,
and rushes over to interview the boy.
"Young Bills Fan Saves Friend From Vicious
Animal," he starts writing in his notebook.

“But I'm not a Bills Fan, " the little boy replies.
"Sorry but since we're in Buffalo, I just assumed you
were," says the reporter and starts writing again.
"Sabres Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific
Attack," he writes in his notebook.

"I'm not a Sabres Fan either", the boy says.
"Oh, I assumed everyone in Buffalo was either
for the Bills or Sabres. What team do you root for", the reporter asked?

"I'm a Dolphin fan", the boy replies.
The reporter starts a new sheet in his
notebook and writes: "Little Bastard From Miami Kills
Beloved Family Pet."

Capturing the Gems (part 1)

Deleted my LJ account. Will capture some of the gems on this, including --

I'm either
(a) an introvert trapped in an extrovert's body
(b) an extrovert trapped in an introvert's body
or
(c) it varies back and forth every the day...

I wonder if we all perform ourselves for so long that we become ourselves
and if so
can we be someone else if we just try hard enough...?
