Y'all be trippin'.
Jun. 10th, 2008 12:32 pmNice to know they're still working to keep the masses distracted: OH NOES! Salmonella in tomatoes! Silly thing is, they cite a man who died after eating pico de gallo. And sure, he caught salmonella from the pico de gallo, but he also had CANCER. And he was officially ruled as having died from said cancer! Yes, clearly, that anecdote should make us be afraid of TOMATOES. Riiiight. ::eyeroll::
But hey, at least somebody has the gonads to move for Bush impeachment! I don't expect that anything will come of it, but you have to appreciate the gutsiness. Hats off to ol' Kucinich.
Anyhoo, complaint of the day: it's one thing for a model to ask for a TFP shoot. Usually, when models request TFP, they suggest some cool concepts that might interest you. Or, they'll say, "whatever you need for your portfolio, I'll do it," which is great, because then you're working on what *you're* interested in. And, they'll also work with your schedule, and be willing to plan further out.
So we get this model contacting us yesterday, who:
A) wants to do a shoot with her best friend
B) has no concepts, and doesn't even know what style they want to do
C) wanted us to do it this Sunday, even though we have a wedding in Eugene on Saturday
D) doesn't want to pay for anything
E) uses netspeak in all her messages (hey, it's a pet peeve of mine)
For those keeping score, that's well over three strikes. Which basically means that, unless your name is Heidi Klum, it's not gonna happen. Muahaha.
I am soooore from acro and lifting yesterday. And I have a meeting in 10 minutes. Grumble. Could be worse, though.
