Yes, this is similar to one I heard about this famous Hollywood director that died a year or 2 ago. (I wish someone remembered his name!) Anyway, I heard an actor telling a story about him: he was on set one day and noticed a well dressed gentleman on the edge of the set intensely watching everything that happened. Occasionally he would look back at the Director, but otherwise he was silent. It began to unnerve the actor and he wondered if he should call security. He decided he'd take up the issue with the Director. The Director laughed and explained that the guy was his "no" man - the only person he could trust to tell him when a scene was not working. For that strategy to work you need 2 things: 1.) a no-man, and 2.) someone willing to listen and act. It would seem Mr. Bush has neither; he's fired all of this no-men. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - New Atlanta http://www.newatlanta.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:138683 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
