ten things i learned in hollywood

About Restaurants: Beware the salad it is an art form in Hollywood and does not arrive in nice manageable bite size chunks.

About Cell Phones: If a cell phone is going to cut off mid-conversation it will cut off during the most important part of the conversation.

About Parking Lots: The day you are running late for a meeting will be the day the studio decides to do parking lot construction.

About Addresses: Confirm addresses before you leave for a meeting it is no fun arriving at an abandoned office because the person you are meeting just thought you knew he moved across town.

About Canceling: You will not get points for showing up the day the plumbing explodes you will lose points for showing up soaked and frazzled cancel.

About Printers: Never say "the script is printing send the messenger" within a printer's hearing the printer will immediately stress and break.

About Dating: Never trust your guy writer pal's judgement about whom he should give your phone number to.

About Humor: Studio executives do not think it is funny when you say you have to get off the phone now Super Man is at the window.

About Clothes: Do not wash meeting clothes the day of a meeting things just do not go well when you discover your whites have all turned pink a half hour before.

About Hair: Do not walk past let alone enter a hair salon the day before a formal event unless you truly believe baseball caps are a nice accessory to black velvet.

Hollywood is a breeding ground for that infectious monster known as "Murphy's Law," eh?
