You've been given the job of producing a movie, what would that movie be about? Aliens are really cats

Which location would you choose for that movie? Every were cats are present.. from house cats to jungles

If it were based on a true story, would you choose the actual location? In your living room.. just watch your cat out of the corner of your eye... watching "YOU" while you sleep they report back to the leader.

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people? James Earl Jones narrates... Julianne Nicolson as one of the cat's companion -- Cote de Pablo as another cat's companion and over stinky cheese and good wine they discover the truth about " Cats " and their purpose of watching earthlings and their network..

Would you be one of the actors/actresses in this movie?.... Just the water heater in the laundry room next to the litter box...

Have you ever, either unintentionally or by choice, gone to a nude beach? If so, tell us about it
(while keeping it PG-13ish)
I recall that the beach at Vina Del Mar, Chile was topless but I don't think there was any total nudity in the 1980s.

Speaking of the beach, what was the last beach you visited and where (state, country, etc.)?
I believe that would be Daytona Beach while working in Florida in the 1990s.

Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it.
Nope.

Just For Fun:
You've been given the job of producing a movie, what would that movie be about?
My great great grandfather who died in one of the gun battles during a 1883-1887 family feud with the Texas Rangers and local law officers . According to an author of the story, there is supposed to already be a movie script.

Which location would you choose for that movie?
It would have to a very rural area of deep east Texas where the events occured.


If it were based on a true story, would you choose the actual location?
I would try to.

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people?
Definitely not so famous or maybe I would do it as an animated movie.

Would you be one of the actors/actresses in this movie?
It may be fun to play the part of the crooked lawyer who engineered the jail break.



Everyone have a great weekend!

You've been given the job of producing a movie, what would that movie be about? I was thinking of something historical, like Amigo, about the Philippine-American war, which followed the Spanish-American war in the late 19th century/early 20th century.

Amigo (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Which location would you choose for that movie? Someplace tropical.

If it were based on a true story, would you choose the actual location? Yes, if I had a BIG film budget to travel to the Philippines. Otherwise, Hawaii would make a good substitute.

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people? In all likelihood, mostly unknown actors and actresses.

Would you be one of the actors/actresses in this movie? Maybe in a cameo role as the town presidente or a village elder.


Today in History:

2013 - Congressional Republicans and the Obama administration agree that Town councils should be
allowed to open their meetings with a Christian prayer

Have a fantastic weekend. Happy Saturday!

Once while driving in DC, traffic was stopped and President Ford walked right in front of me when he was crossing the street coming out of the White House. He had a team of bodyguards with him. It was quite a surprise and a moment to remember.

Thanks, JustJoy and your AZ correspondent.
Happy Saturday to all!
