Poop Shute

Back from Lala Land with a fistful of email addresses and phone numbers, and about $80 after gas.

Sweet.

It was a fun little project with a really fun group of people. It looks like I came out of it with some new friends and career allies, and possibly some good stuff for my reel.

Super sweet.

The promo turned out to be for one of those reality/game shows that we've all seen too much of these days. They take this scripted promo to networks to show them what it could be like, and if someone buys it, then they start filming the real episodes.

This one is called "Love Conquers All."

Original, right? Yeah, and the premise is a peach too.

It breaks down like this; basically one chick has her pick of a big bunch o' guys, like that show the Bachelorette. They all live in this big house together for a month or so as she eliminates them down, BUT, there's a catch.

Dunh-dunh-da!

Once she has them narrowed down to the final eight the host reveals this huge list on the wall of dark secrets that range from tame to downright sad.

Examples:

Tax Evasion.

Believes Was Abducted by Aliens.

400+ Sexual Partners

Is Sterile.

The trick is the list has sixteen secrets, and there are only eight guys. As she eliminated each guy, he then reveals his secret. This way there are always way more secrets than guys.

Like Forrest Gump's mama always said "You never know what you gonna get."

My guy gets eliminated third to last.

She cuts me and I walk over to tell her my secret.

"I'm really sorry" she says as she shakes my hand

"It's okay. My secret: When I was in high school I got busted for hacking into a bunch of bank computers. Computer Fraud." I pause as if I'm done. "BUT, I also have another secret. When I got out I got hired by an online security company to write code for them. Now I'm a multi-millionaire. Have a nice life." I turned to leave and gave a nod to the remaining bachelors. "Peace out guys."

Hell yes! I get to live out every nerdy american boy's dream. I get revenge on the pretty girl. She dumps me, but UH-OH! I'm rich, sister. THHHPPPBBBTTTT!

It's a little overdone in these reality shows, but it was still fun to do.

I was the scrawny one out of these bachelors, so it's fitting that I was the rich nerd. These guys were all my height, but like thirty pounds of muscle heavier than me.

Needless to say I felt out of place in the pool scene.

Anyhoo, after my hellish six hour drive home I'm off to Brian's to watch some Samurai Champloo.

Should be fun.
