The blue arrow in the foreground to the left is pointing down to you. The red arrow to the right is pointing to Skittles. :P

13. Yeah, that would be me standing there dumbfounded, before the pool opened up, my life in slow motion...
'Sometimes, after you've made a mistake, there can be a luxurious amount of time before disaster strikes.'

:rofl: at myself. That was a great scene there, such healthy and vibrant lives being shown there. The dancing was as good as Nolte and Winger in 'Cannery Row.'

George's life pretty close to what my father's was and I found he had more friends than I ever imagined when he passed on. It's good to make a difference for others.

8. Of course! Mary was good, sweet, & caring.

She was the heroine in the story because she had sensed that George was in trouble at the bank, & in the end, she had organized a fund drive that saved George from going to jail.


:hi:

15. BTW, Peggy, the movie's on tonight, if you're interested.
NBC bought it back in the '90s and they show it only once a year. :( :hi:

7. I want to be that implied character who decided who gets wings and can send people
back through time. It would be type-casting for me.

12. Thank you pacalo.
Hey look, mister - we serve hard drinks in here for men who want to get drunk fast, and we don't need any characters around to give the joint "atmosphere". Is that clear, or do I have to slip you my left for a convincer?

19. "Trof - the neighbor sitting on the porch watching George & Mary lasso'ing the moon"
DAMN! I MADE THE CAST!
I mean...I READ for it.
But hell, it was a HUGE casting call and I never thought they'd pick ME!
OK, I don't think I get any actual lines in the final cut, but DO I GET RESIDUALS?
I gotta call my agent.
If I get resids, this could mean a FORTUNE!

Oh yeah, I want to thank all the 'little people' who made this possible for me.
You know who you are.
:-)

21. Don't mind me, I'll just be dressing sets and doing lighting.
Oh, and I think I'll rewrite so that Clarence goes postal. So there.

23. Is the "Nick the Bartender" role still open? I do a great Sheldon Leonard. Listen:
Ahem...

'Alright you two pixies! Trew da door or trew da windah!'

Here's my agent's card. Thanks.
