Can you see me having meetings at Starbucks on Santa Monica Blvd or lunch at Gladstone's in Malibu with Hollywood types.

Sure. Go have fun. You won't believe the experience until you have been through it. Think of the movie, "Get Shorty." That is what it will be like. I had a taste of the "Biz" because of the people I danced with in LA. Did a "dancing extra" in the HBO, "Walter Winchell." Got filmed for an interview and doing Lindy at Merv Griffin's "Coconut Club" in the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel by "Hard Copy" and they reran it once a month for a year.

But that is just the fringe of what you would get involved with.

Tell them you will meet them in Century City. No breakfast, no lunch, and by no means dinner. Are you represented? If not, have an entertainment law firm at the ready. Consider them (the producer/writer)to be your enemy and take all you can get. I was part of this for 18 years. I know from reading your posts that you are a savvy and sharp guy. But I don't know if you have dealt with these sharks who want your brains for breakfast. Make'em pay!

Hey, look what it did for R Lee Ermey. Maybe you can take
over 'MAIL CALL' on The History Channel when R Lee retires.
