Movie Extra

So I signed up for a mailing list that sends out notices when movies need extras.  I think that would be a fun experience though I was also told that it's like jury duty where you spend a lot of time waiting.  That's OK with me too as I haven't really made a dent in Infinite Jest yet.  I don't know how many movies really get made here though.  The Coen brothers were filming here a while ago and then that football movie with George Clooney was done here too.  Extreme Makeover Home Edition was filming here recently too, but I was employed at the time, but I would've helped with that house if I had the free time that I have now. 

Little known fact about me is that I once tried out to be on Double Dare (they should put that out on DVD).  There were hundreds of kids there though.  I was placed in a group of like 20 other kids and then they asked us to make funny faces and stuff like that.  And then they picked 1 kid out of the group of us and unfortunately it was not me.  I think someone should recreate the set of Double Dare like at an amusement park or something and then you pay like $20 to go through the final obstacle course.  That would almost make up for not being picked all those years ago.
