“I was a bartender in New York and I overheard this girl saying she made $3000 doing a commercial. A kid at work told me, 'Hey, I know this director and he'd really like you!'. So I walked into this guy's office and was like 'I was thinking maybe I could make $3000' and he hired me for commercials, short films, like 15 jobs in a row.” ThinkingKnowsMadeKidsJobsFilmGuyGirlNew YorkLike YouDirectorsOfficeHeyThis GuyThis GirlBartenderShort FilmsReally Like You Author:Pauley Perrette

“Hi, this is Bernard Fanning from Powderfinger. I'm in New York at the moment, and we've been walking around the city, it's pretty strange. I was walking along with Darren and Cogsy yesterday and we saw this guy playing cards, a little two up type swindle, and he ripped this guy off for like one hundred bucks in like, ten seconds, and the guy started complaining so he just packed up his shop and left! And it was the smoothest swindle any of us had ever seen. So that was probably the highlight of our trip here so far.” LittlesTwoMomentsGuyLeftCitiesSawsNew YorkStrangeTypeWalkingTenHundredComplainingYesterdayCardsShopsSecondsThis GuyBucksRippedHighlightsDarrenPlaying Cards Author:Bernard Fanning
