SoSFDavidO here for the next two weeks, takin’ the reins! Here’s today’s strip, where Mason is introduced to the idea of making a movie based on someone in real life. Strange concept, I know, and so much so that it sounds like one of those experimental films like Andy Warhol’s movie that showed someone sleeping for 9 hours.
Still, it’s just so crazy it could work!
I do wonder what part of Lisa’s Story could be considered fascinating. Did the talking cat make it into the script somehow?
SoSFDavidO here for the next two weeks, takin’ the reins! Here’s today’s strip, in which Mason, having realized the sorry lump of half-man sitting across from him actually lost his wife after an extended illness, looks amused as hell.
What in the world is he smiling about? It can’t be his own cold-cribbed comment, whatever that means. Was there some part between “Lisa’s Story” and “The Other Shoe” where Les and Lisa adopted a unicycle-riding bear and ran a wacky New Zealand B&B? Because that’s how amused Mason looks.
SoSFDavidO here for the next two weeks, takin’ the reins! Here’s today’s strip for you snarkers to digest. I hope “Hollywood” is buying because I just can’t see Les spending $23.99 for a organic beef cheeseburger with goat cheese and side of avocado dip.
Sigh. We can dream…
SoSFDavidO here for the next two weeks, takin’ the reins! In today’s strip, Mason, the actor who’s got the unenviable task of playing Les Moore in the upcoming cancer drama Lust for Lisa makes the mistake of asking our humble writer to talk about his favorite topic: himself.
I only hope Les is honest.
Well, you see, Mason, I’m a self-centered, arrogant prick who uses other people as footstools to get what I want, belittling everyone from student I’m supposed to be educating to my own family members. And speaking of that, I have a daughter and daughter-in-law who I haven’t thought of in over two years because their personal achievements were starting to overshadow my own.
Mason is going to want a new agent by the time this is all over.
SoSFDavidO here for the next two weeks, takin’ the reins! It looks like we’re back in Hollywood for more insights into the makings of a TV movie about cancer in Today’s strip.
“Grab a bite to eat”?! People in California “Do lunch”. Trust me, I know, I live there and it annoys the heck out of my Midwestern family to the point of me consciously trying not to say it but it’s impossible.
I can’t imagine what Mason could possibly have to talk to Les about other than: “I just thought I should spend time with a world-class putz as yourself before I attempted to play one.”
