Barb P..... Yeah, well, bowels, heart, whatever.... When you're you're talking 'bout winter weather in Canada, no matter WHERE ya are, you're talking C O L D!!! <grin> Lissen, Barb... this is THE Spielberg you're we're talking about, y'know. I mean, he MIGHT let you be a script girl or keep the coffee fresh and hot, but I seriously think he's not about to let you oversee the making of HIS movie. But I tell ya what... I don't know Spielberg personally like Marvin and Stan do. However, I'm SURE that if you kinda... ummmmm... you know... sorta sucked up to them two a little... lay on the flattery, Barb... show a little leg... why I betcha that they'd be happy to put in a good word with him for ya. <wee smirk> As for Barbara Walters introducing all the assorted "Barbs" on the list, well, I imagine our particular program'd have to be extended to the entire hour instead of just one segment so that all us Barbs could be listed! <smile> Ohh.. and Barb...if ya DO get out here to work for Spielberg, have your secretary give my secretary a call. I live about ten minutes from Hollywood so we can meet and do lunch... (kiss kiss) Smooches...
