Ah, dear Clint. Too old now alas.....

My grandfather in Arizona could be Clint's double. But only as old Clint. Back in the day there was no resemblance at all. He's in a tourist area and has signed many autographs for Clint. Too bad Mr. Eastwood doesn't know that granddad is helping him out. :)

Well, off to write. My screenplay job is most likely about to fall through, as one of the team that asked me to write it doesn't want a screenplay by a woman after all, the misogynistic bastard. So I will plug on and make it into a sitcom, maybe. Who knows? I'm having a great time writing it. :)

AndreaLynne's Grandpa:"Ah-ah, I know what you're thinking, 'Did he take six pills or only five?' Well to tell you the truth, with my Alzheimer I've kind of lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magzoom — the most powerful wheelchair/scooter in the world — and would blow your hat clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, grandaughter?!
AndreaLynne: "Grandpa you've only taken 5 pills and your Magzoom needs to be recharged now come here and take your last pill and you can watch Wheel of Fortune".
Grandpa: "Go ahead. Make my day"

Yes, that would be a typical conversation. He's a former conservation officer/forest ranger bad ass. :D

Forest Ranger has to be one of the best freaking jobs in the world. I have a few friends who have that job. They basically just bum around in the bush all day with a company truck or helicopter and get paid well doing it.

As for my status today: I have a cold. First week back working with kids and surprise surprise I caught something. :(

Put Andrew Lynne on the cover.

Then only tell him who wrote the script after he has finished.

What a dickhead! Sellotape it to a porcupine and shove it up his arse!

I found out that the one who changed his mind on me writing it was a guy that asked me out in school that I turned down for a bunch of dates. His excuse was that he didn't want to be too trendy by having a woman write the screenplay (Diablo Cody being his only example). I don't really know the true story, but that's okay, because I think I want to take this idea in another direction and it's heading toward television instead.

The name change idea did cross my mind. Laughing out loud

There's probably no room up there. :P

I'm feeling lucky.

I still feel lucky, but also a bit sad.

I really hope this works out better for you Andrea! Guy sounds like a fool whatever his reasoning. Good luck! :D

What's up, Dolly? Console

A man your age boasting about scanning books in the Schools section just looks wrong, Leevil.

In his area he's known as "That sort".

Are you an ex striper too? :O
