Scene Title: Cold Hearted Cabbies
Weaving through gridlock traffic on east Houston, we pause to find a break, track-stand.
The cab behind me purposely excels forward just enough to clip my back wheel. Caught off guard, I loose my balance and ((smack)) knee first on the pavement.. The light turns green as I peel myself up from the ground grabbing my bike in pain.
All I heard was ‘That’s what you get! Outta the way girl!!’
‘This is a cold hearted town,’ my friend says…
I shook my head with disappointment.

Character Title: Easy Money
Overheard at a theatre’s VIP lounge bar:
an older gentleman complains to the guy sitting next to him that he’s really in a tough spot right now.
The guy asks, “Are you in the arts, or were you laid off? What?”
The gentleman proclaims, “No no no no. I’m just waiting for the royalty checks to come in.”
“Oh! What do you do?” The guy asks.
“Nothing, really! My father directed a few films in years past and since he’s passed away, his residuals go to me now. And the god damn check hasn’t come in yet!”
Well, come to find out… the gentleman’s father was Robert Wise. #richpeopleproblems -

Quote Title: GLORIFIED KILLERS
I overheard a Bimbo gushing about the Hotness of the Boston Bombers as seen on Extra TV.
******************************************************************************
“STOP GLORIFYING KILLERS !!!
A symbol of this country’s resilience are those heroic survivors of the Boston Marathon portrayed in heartbreaking photos and live television programs without limbs and with bruised and bloody features. Yet wherever the Tsarnaev brothers are depicted, their previous movie-star good looks are shoved in our faces. Let’s have some up-to-date pictures of these monsters.”
