Eyeing me with what I can only describe as 'significant indifference', she seemed to be trying to make a decision. As I soon found out, that decision would eventually change the course of my life.

It had something to do with the vuvuzela she pulled out from her purse. "OK, smart boy," she purred, "Let's talk about winners now!"

PART FOUR to this point
Spoiler:
<"Cut! Cut! Are you guys crazy? Has anyone checked what the writers are drinking when they write this stuff?" "Someone already tried to dye my hair red for one scene. But, a Vuvuzela! How am I suppose to pull a vuvuzela out of the purse that matches this outfit?" "That's it! I want a clause in my contract that says the writers stay away from any drink that begins with a 'Z'. " "What?" Oh, yeah, you can add that too. I'll wear a wig, but no dye jobs." "Ok, I'm ready to reshoot that last scene with just a little correction I wrote in."> ![]() Last edited by dreams; 07-04-2010 at 02:10 AM. Reason: add spoiler |

I stared at that .38 caliber vuvuzela and pondered -- "Where the hell had she concealed that thing?" My mind broke into a cold sweat!

Since when did writers get to have assistants?" "Give me that eraser. Yes, I KNOW there was a line through a word in the script, I put it there! See, that word in dark letters next to it? That's called a write-in change to the script." "Well, of course I can make a change to the script, I'm the STAR!"

While my brain was whirling with images of wanton vuvuzulicity, the broad began speaking again. "Listen," she said, whacking me alongside the head with the v******a, "Here's the lowdown on the job I need you to do for me."

![]() "Ow, lady, quit whacking me with that v*..v*..v******a!" I said, jumping out of the chair and covering my head with my hands. "It's about time you noticed, that I'm the one with the vicious looking gun in here," she purred. |

"Okay," she said, "the low down on the job; it's all on this list that I prepared whilst you were otherwise engaged by the Green Mob down in the Suite. We need, "she explained with a sultry purr in her voice, "to leave immediately for the Outer Space Casino that is located on the small island on the map that is mentioned in the list; Oh! and don't forget the ape - his orange coat suggests he's a spy for some beer company ....."

How could I forget an ape wearing an orange coat -- try as I might? I sighed and took a gander at the dame's long list!

"Eggs, milk, whipped cream, spotted dick, scotch, pop-tarts, vegetable oil, leather pants for the monkey..." I read with surprise. Then it dawned on me that I was reading my grocery list, not the dame's list.

I grabbed her list and started reading. My eyes popped at the first item: 1. Hose the big ape!
