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...

Barbara M...just to be perfectly clear...I am from the frozen tundra of
the HEART of Canada...and if Stan & Marvin are writing the screenplay and
Mel Gibson is going to be in it...I want to personally oversee the making
of the movie.  :)

Maybe we could get 20/20 interested in doing a segment on a group of PWPs
trying to get on Oprah....just imagine Barbara Walters trying to
introduce ...Barb M, Barb S, Barb D, Barb P...:)
