Survivor
Casting Call: "...and I'm unemployed"
by
Jane Stillwater http://jpstillwater.blogspot.com
Recently I entered a
casting call contest for people who wanted to be on Season 21 of "Survivor".
There were something like 525 video audition
entries submitted -- and I watched almost half of them.
One of main themes or threads that seems to run
through all too many of these videos was the phrase,
"...and I'm unemployed." Boy if you really
want to see a cross-section of America, go watch some of
these videos and count the number of times that
the phrase "I'm unemployed" gets said.
However, one
of the ten winners of the casting call contest does state that
he works two jobs a day.
You can't get much more American than that either!
.
Moving right along.
I then watched the latest episode of "The Amazing Race". Yes, I know,
I have no life.
But to my surprise, the contestants were all
sent off to Puerto Montt in Chile. Hey, I've been to Puerto Montt.
They have great German food, a rodeo and a Studebaker
museum.
And I want to be on America's
Next Top Model next -- the geriatric edition.
