Cate’s Musings

A friend of mine had a birthday BBQ in Griffith Park this past weekend.

As we’re cleaning up, a guy comes by who appears to be homeless. Either that or really down on his luck. He’s got a trash bag in his hand and is collecting cans and bottles from the trash bins.

“You guys in the film business?” he asks.
Hoping for the easy answer, a friend of mine replies “ah, no.”
“Well, I am. But when there’s no work I have to do stuff like this.”
“Yeah, it can be tough.”
“Well, at least I’ve got an agent,” says the HOMELESS GUY COLLECTING CANS.
“That’s one up on me!” says another friend of mine.

Yeah. The dude has an agent. And he really didn’t seem like he was bullshitting.
