The things you can do with digital actors nowadays...

They were smooth. You were great. Loved the coloured label (WTF?) BRAINSEXY!

FYI: I actually thought you said vickers and coke. That's another film I s'pose.

Not sure why the label was coloured, really. At some point I just decided it would be.

I'm not really that into vickers, and they're not really that into coke. Maybe blew it all on vickers and sponge would have worked though...

More wine? :D

Great work, David! I dig your writing, and the acting was very good!

[dfpv3]

Thanks sisch. The lines: "More wine?" - "Really, I'm fine" make me laugh every time.

should I laugh at my own stuff? Probably not, but I do it anyway :)

Wonderfully funny as always.

Ohhh real actors! Fancy Fancy

I thought they were quite good...and I was hoping for a make out scene and then another scene where they have a smoke and eat chocolate. You were ok..acting felt slightly forced..maybe its the fake accent.

Damn. Like oven re-heated chicken... I've been foiled again.

I'd pay the money, but you made it so easy to hack the site.

I mean, come on. You're not even trying.

Thanks :) I'm going to New York next week and I plan to busk simply by reading the phone book in Times Square. Hopefully I'll make enough for the return flight to Scotland.

Hopefully...

Damn it Jaden, a man has needs! Three million dollars worth of needs.

I refuse to admit shame or remorse until faced with prison time for drug offenses, embezzlement and / or burying that one girl who had the accident in the desert.
