Transformers

Huey had come to Los Angeles to try for a part in one of the Transformer movie series, or maybe a spin-off of one of the Godzilla flicks, and had counted on perhaps being a parking valet to pay the bills while waiting for his big break.  For some reason, the rich guys and the cool chicks didn’t seem to want him driving their cars, even  just to the parking lot.  They kept muttering something about Betelgeuse on the seats and steering wheel . . .

He’s My Rebel

Justine (3rd from left, front row) has been dating Seth ( All black and white–no brown,  left middle) over her parents’ objection.  She just couldn’t help humming the old 60’s song, “He’s a Rebel” by the Crystals–“He’s a rebel and he’ll never ever be any good; he’s a rebel ’cause he never does what he should, just because his beak doesn’t tip like ours does, doesn’t mean I can’t give him all my love . . .”

Short Guy

Dino had shipped his resume and photo to several of the Hollywood studios, trying for the next new  apocalyptic/monster movie, offering himself to play the monster.  When he went to the studios to try out for the part, the director said, “You’re awfully small.”  Dino couldn’t help himself and blurted out, “So is Tom Cruise!”

Hothead

It’s true, thought Javier, I am a bit of a hothead, but the Spanish word for hothead is not Habanero, in spite of what the redneck Texas cowboys said at school . . .

Fading Fast

While on site checking out the scenery for a film to be shot on the Texas Gulf Coast, Madonna and Lady Gaga were watching a stunning Gulf Coast sunset when Madonna said to Lady Gaga, “It seems like being on top of the world, being famous and popular, but take it from me, girl, it’s fading faster than you can imagine.”
