<sigh>.........damn it all. I've missed the last three events in a row. Won't be another till feb., and if i miss that one i'll have to tie myself to a chair and burn myself with lit cigarettes. Or whatever that guy in that movie said.

Figured i'd updat this thing. Ben awhile. Got promoted to corporal at the laste event. Permanently. Made me sew on strips. And then the leadership died. First the sergeant.....then the captain.....then the lutenant(i hate spelling drunk). Then i noticed i was in charge when the colonel came running up to me telling me to take command of the company. Then i led them all into a glorios death. Yay leadership.

I might get to be in a Civil War movie that starts filming next month. Reenactors are needed for camp scenes and battle scenes. I think this will be very interesting. I hope i don't hate this movie after it comes out.

It's about some woman who conspired to kill President Lincoln. Apparantley, she was the only woman in the USA to ever be hanged for treason. It's being filmed in Savannah, Georgia.

Sounds fun. maybe you'll get a close up of your face exploding from a cannon ball hit!! that would be cool. Goodluck!

Hope the ghost of ol' Jim Williams doesn't hang a Nazi flag out the second story window of his historic district manner and disrupt filming for a few days.

EDIT: its a real ******* move to make a reference nobody will get. Jim Williams was the Savannah resident featured in the novel Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil who, while a movie was being filmed, draped a Nazi flag from his window to protest the filming of some movie including his home without his consent. He wasn't a Nazi, but a collector of historical memorabilia, as I recall.

I knew that! I knew that! I loved that book. Have a replica of the statue from the cover.

I got payed money to play dead for five hours. I met Justin Long, the dude from the Mac commercials. He's kind of a prick.

Iwata · Oct 24, 2009, 09:34 AM

He looks like one, too.

Just curious, though... what's you kill/death ratio?

Demosthemighty · Oct 30, 2009, 06:30 PM

Something like 30-20 or some such. I have no idea.

Demosthemighty · May 5, 2011, 09:52 AM

Been forever, but hey, check this out

That guy curled in the fetal position on the left side of the picture....that's me. I died a silly heroes death, as did we all.

And this is the last remnants of the failed charge that led to the picture above. Looks a lot like the other one, just with more live people in it.
