I was watching the end credits for a movie today and it dawned on me that everyone involved in the movie is given credit. The caterers, the assistants, the madams. Everyone. The film industry is the most self adoring, self congratulatory industry in the world. People make fun of them because they give themselves so many awards (Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes, Blockbusters) for merely doing their jobs. I think it's funnier that the production company's delivery drivers get credit. Can you imagine if every industry was so interested in giving everyone involved in every detail of a job credit?

"Hey, Bill... thanks for installing my tires"

"No problem, George. By the way, the coffee in the waiting room was provided by Folgers, our fleet vehicles are all Fords, The uniform I'm wearing today was purchased from Acme Uniforms... all hemming was performed by my wife, Suzie..."

Anyways, just something that crossed my mind. Three days until April 19, my 31st birthday.

GOOCH:old

You might be the Gooch...

If you've ever ran up a $350 cell phone bill...
If your car's tags are more than three months expired...
If your last breakfast was Easy Mac macaroni and cheese...
If you receive two phone calls in the same day that the caller asks "Did I wake you..."
If both people above did indeed wake you.
If you've ever uttered the words "Wait for this Viagra to kick in..."
If you've gone to a bar for the specific purpose of getting thrown out...
If you've waited six hours for a DVD to copy rather than spend $10 for a legal copy...
If you've barbecued breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and midnight snacks consecutively...
If you've jerked off to Denise Austin or the Spanish Channel because you were too lazy to put a porn in the DVD player...
If you've said "I'm in to scrapbooking" in an effort to get a girl's phone number...
If you've watched four straight hours of Curb Your Enthusiasm...
If you've watched six straight hours of Kojak...
