JOHNSON=KEVIN BACON

WOW!

Yes so they filmed a hollywood movie at my school today called beautiful ohio hitting theaters next fall and ofcourse i had to get in on the action. I got to meet a bunch of actors including tom hanks' wife who plays the mother, the girl who plays the sister in euro trip, chad lowe hillary swanks husband and william hurst who plays the father. It takes place in the 70's so everyone wore silly clothing and the casrs outside were replaced with movie trailers and 74' mustangs, beautiful cars.....and the other actors...well what can i say long hair/tight clothes....carolyn you understand?

the crew was amazing...i was able to meet the director, prop master, grapher, many people who were all very nice. My boss looked like kevin bacon except better.

Ah the glamourous life of a hollywood film set....

Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way. I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me Capitalism. Mommy is the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you The People. The nanny, well, consider her The Working Class. Your baby brother, we'll call him The Future. Now go think about this and see if it makes sense."

So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said. Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying and runs to his room only to find that his diapers are very soiled. So the little boy goes to his parents' room. Mom is sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he looks through the peephole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand what politics is now."

"Good son, tell me in your own words then what politics are."

The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit."
