Re: Doing it right...

Re: Brit Military ambulance: Good choice on a few levels. 1. If you're searching for someone in a car and you want them to be able to find you, drive something distinctive. 2. If said item has 4-inch-thick walls (insulation) so much the better as it will slow down small-arms fire. One can protect fo...

Re: Doing it right...

OK, so on one side we have a vicious, merciless drug gang, augmented by every dimwitted wannabe gunman in the Twin Cities. On the other, we have various: Immortals, High-level paranormals, Paranormal mortals, Mortal gunsels, Non-para mortals, various and sundry demons, and gods alone knows what else...

Re: WTF ARE WE DOING???

Gentlemen... and Ladies... I believe we are doing "Another Day at the Shop or Two Sergeants and a Mystery," Who's in? I'm sorry - I didn't mean to steamroll. I have just seen this for so long it spilled out. I am in, of course...if if there's someone with a better idea I'm up for it as we...

Re: WTF ARE WE DOING???

If we do Sergeants, I'm thinking you will narrate- Al and I have to argue with each other through most of the script. We only need a decent Tina- Julie, you up? We also need at least 3 agents - one on the secure phone initially ( I think female there just for a bit of balance, perhaps?), and Bevis ...

Re: WTF ARE WE DOING???

Two Sergeants might be a good shot- I need to read it through to get the cadence right.

Re: WTF ARE WE DOING???

Hell, this sounds like fun. As I mentioned to Greg before, the issue with this is going to be the actors working in relative isolation. If one can work to a recording for timing and such that could be done, but the quality of the recordings and stringing them together is going to take some creativit...

AMEN! And do not get met started on date formats - m/d/yy, dd/mm/yy - AAARGGG the only form that always sorts and lines up is CCYY/MM/DD. And yes, MM & DD are zero filled. I got an early introduction to date manipulation when I worked at a mortgage company in 1978. The full paperwork for a 30 y...

Anyone else hearing the theme from "The Good, The Bad, And THe Ugly" by Hugo Montenegro?

And I agree as well - First thought I had. Make it 9...or is it 10?
