Alright, it's a new year and I eagerly await the wayward travelers seeking their hearts desire...
...Lets get started

Time to get back to work already??? sheeeesh

*wonders what the Actors Guild would say about having to film on New Years Day*

*frantically searches for a copy of the script!!!*

Alone at last. Forget the script............................................

really, Wiz .. sticking to the script would be the best idea. *Honest to Goodness and sweetest smile* I seem to get into waaaaaaaaaaaay too much trouble when I ad lib.

just outa curiosity .. alone where??? .. where are we filming?

Now there's a kinky idea. Colour Panavision...

Ahem...

sorry Wiz, baby .. I just didn't 'get' the post .. well I get the 'ahem' bit, just not the one before .. *hangs her silly head*

Nevermind. *LOL* if you hve to explain it, it's not worth it, but ponder these words...alone where and filming.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh *blush* ... your a Wicked, not a Wizard *L*

see, as I keep trying to tell everyone .. *innocent lace* *grin*

or maybe *forgotten all about the fun stuff lace*

or .... none of the above *wink*

A wicked wizard *LOL*

*taps foot impatiently* SO, when does filming begin???

Okay everybody. Lets get things rolling. Time for scene one. Please get the three guys out here in farm hand costumes, Auntie Em, Uncle Henry and Dorothy. Get those farm animals in the pens and have Ms. Gulch waiting in the wings for the bicycle scene. Oh yeah, we'll need Toto the dingo out here too...

well, I am ready .. do i get paid extra for being the only cast member who is ACTUALLY ready???

when do we get to do the poppy field scene again????

Dorothy jumps off haybale and calls Toto...
glances at script.
Aus is OZ 2000 sure has some action scenes.
Dorothy and Scarecrow, c.lion and tinman make a spectacular parachute dive into the wizards place.
Sweetpoppy has a car race scene that will leave her breathless but still looking sensational *s*
and the wizard has computer animation at his beck and call. This should be some movie!

*mumbles under her breath* how come THAT poppy wench gets all the good scenes??? *narrows eyes*

where is that scriptwriter?

Our scene opens as Huck and the other two farm hands are plotting to sneak off from work and go hang out at the bilabong and have a little smoke. Auntie Em walks up and says:
A.E.:What are you three losers up to? Get back to work!
Huck(S.C.): We're trying to decide what to get you for your birthday.
Auntie Em turns and walks to the house as Huck flips her off and sticks out his tongue...

Meanwhile, Dorothy is bummed because Lacie wants her little dog Toto and decides to run off. She comes to a carnival wagon occupied by, er.....
Hey!! What the hell is Crocodile Dundee doing dressed up like professor Marvel? Ring casting right away and find out what the story is!!! And get those colour cameras ready, it won't be long before we're in Oz. And why is that croc hitched to that wagon?

Okay, that's right, ole Paul is going to play Prof. Marvel

Okay, lets roll the black and white stuff so we can have Dot landing that house on the wicked witch of the east...

Okay, cue the wind machine..........

now, cue the cyclone

Okay, now on three, drop the house from the gantry...

One
two
three...

KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM........................................................................................................

Okay, nice shot!!!
Now, Cue Dorothy out of the door and into Oz
aaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd ACTION!!!!!!

*impressed at the direction* ... this IS getting good!!

*waits to see how Dotty has coped with the tumble*

Well Director...you've done a great job so far! But where are the munchkins and the Yellow Brick Road? And the good witch?! And the little houses?! Oh Antie Em theres no place like home! Theres no place like home! Theres no place like home! *click click click* (a little over acting never hurt anyone)OH well...*waits to see if the Director will and them* *eats her popcorn* yummy!

Suddenly, Kate Winslet (in a sari) and Harvey Keitel (in a frock) tumble from the beeg outback sky, landing uncomfortably on the red dirt road.

And Dorothy says:

*STOMPS UP TO THE DIRECTOR* Since WHEN did Winslet and this other fella get on the payroll????????


hmmmmmmm i think we need some Wiz magic ..

Hey, get Winslet and Keitel out. Bad enough I have Paul Hogan as Prof. Marvel

Okay, the munchkins are coming, we need Dorothy. I cued her and she hasn't shown up yet.

Dorothyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy....................................

Darn tempermental actresses!...*calls his agent..*...Is that part still open in Rambo 47: Little Fella with a Machine Gun? I don't have to wear funny shoes in that one do I?

hey munchkin ... the funny shoes is as cute as it gets for ya *L* ...........

*still thinks we need a fix of Wiz*

*walks to his mark on the Yellow Brick Road...gives Kate Winslet a wee pinch on her unmentionable, as he passes...Kate turns and slaps Harvey Keitel silly and starts to strangle him with his own dress...the croc is smiling at Toto and thinking of dinner...Toto is smiling at the croc and thinking of intermingling of the species...Paul Hogan gets into his Professor Marvel character by playing with electricity, but fails to notice that he is standing in water....*

hey munchkin .. we got rid of Winslet and the other bloke!! ......... Hogan, well, he was never known for his .. ummmmm .. brightless *L* .. he will be know, though, huh? .. *watches as Hoges lights up the neighbourhood*

hmmmm.... think we need a role call here....people who are suposed to be in the play stand to the left....by the Yellow Brick Rd...poeple who aren't in the play stand by the curtian......*runs over and hides behind lacie* *whispers* don't let him see me..I want to be in this too! hehehe

Alright YOU FOOLS
OUT OUT OUT!
This is my scene.
Now, curl up my toes will ya?

*goes to curl Outbackwitches toes* Too tight? Tell me when!

DO YOU HAVE A UNION?

Where'sm y agent!

*hops over Kate and Harvey, who are rolling around in the mud, punching each other, then walks up to the Outbackwitch and says "Nice toes babe. Say, do you date short guys? How 'bout you and me get a couple of brewski's after the shoot and go hang out down at unemployment?"

Alright munchkin! Cut it out! We have work to do here! This is no place to pick up chicks! I may not be the director but I don't think he would like this! *walks off wondering to herself* " how did i become part of this thing so fast? Oh Well!"

misses the Wiz ......

Sorry Director sir but I got delayed in make up..
*g*
I'm ready when you are *s*

*huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs Dotty* ........ save me, save me!! I am fretting for the Wiz!! and he has deserted me! *ohhh woe is me* ...

*whispers to Dot* .. this place is sooooooo much more fun than working out who is writing which poems ..*

huh? *lots on lacies last post*

Okay, could we get something going here? *winks at lacie*

sure we can Wiz *wink* ........... *delves deep into her bag of tricks - all illusion, remember??? *grin**

do you want the blue one or the red one?? ... I myself prefer the blue one .........

*sets out the snakes and ladders board* .. me the blue chip, you the red one ....* .. I'll let you throw the die first *smile*.

this should at least give us something to do, until the Director gets his act together *pardon the weak pun*

can i play! i want to be yellow!

*gets some Yellow Brick Road paint and starts painting Sarette....*

*hands sarette the green disk* .. at least we will be able to tell you and your disc apart*

nice paint job, munchin ..maybe you should consider set design?

Whilst Lacie, the Wizard and Sarette play snakes and ladders, Dotty puts on her yellow polka dot bikini and catches some rays....after putting on sunsceen...looks around for someone to rub some on her back ...

Try the Munchkin Dorothy...lol:-)

sings in her best aussie voice *itsy bitsy, teenie weenie, yellow polka dot bikini ...... *

if ya get stuck, Dot, I'll do the sunscreen, but it wont be as much fun as one of the blokes doing it.

*grins at lacie* Thanks I'll take you up on the offer since I havent got anyone queueing up for the job *L*
Geez I love this place..no where else would I look this good in a bikini *g*
Who's winning the snakes and ladders..watch that wizard! He has a few tricks up his sleeve..

ALERT!!! ALERT!!!! THIS IS NOT AN EXERCISE!!!

REPEAT!!!! THIS IS NOT AN EXERCISE!!!!!!

Lacie-proof ear protectors are available at minimal cost from me. Has anybody ever heard Lacie sing? Jaysus!!! I have!! And look what happened to me!! Honestly, folks. I really have!! Anybody looking for a secret weapon? Contact Lacie! But I want a cut on the procedes!

Bloody hell! I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy!

lucky this isn't a musical *LMAO* ....

*pokes out tongue at shae*

DON'T put that thing back in your mouth!

lol! no comment....rolflmao...oh this is to good! lol

Hmmm, I go off to the can and chaos ensues...

Okay Dorothy, walk out into Oz and be amazed. Remember, the most important line in this scene is: Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore. I'll let you ad lib the rest...

...QUIET ON THE SET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNND ACTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

*a hushed silence falls over the set as everyone waits for the appearance of Dorothy and Toto*

The scene is the Australian outback...the deep red dirt contrasting superbly with the bright blue sky. Dorothy and Toto are standing in the middle of a dirt track looking around confusedly.*

Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.

*Toto is looking extremely worried as the lack of trees is causing him extreme discomfit*

Suddenly overhead the sound of a helicopter breaks the silence....

" My god, its Lacie and Troy Dann !!"

CUT!!!!!!! PRINT IT!!!!!!!

WRITER!!!!! WHO'S TROY DANN?!!!!???

*steps off the chopper in her green satin party dress with Troy Whomever on her arm* ........ *waves*!!

Hello everyone!!! *takes the glass of champagne handed to her and hands it to Dotty* ........ Another please, Waiter!

*calls to Toto* .. Come here, lovely little doggie!! *smiles sweetly hoping the dog will take the bait*

Jaysus!! this chopper is wrecking my hair!!

*extracts tongue from cheek* .. So, Dot, how you doing mate?

*signals to Troy* .. come here daaaaaaaaaaarling, come here at meet my friends, ferral as they are, they are not local, but introduced species! *shock, horror*.

*grabs Troy's hat and plonks it on her own* .. not a good look, but hey .. better than a 'bad hair day'!!

*whipsers to the ladies* ... this fella is quiet .. ummm . interesting *wink*

lol! All I can do is lol at this play...so interesting! LOL
good to be back

*crooks finger at Sarette* .. come over here, daaaaaaaaarling. *calls to wardrobe* .. lets see if we can get this wee one all decked out in some classy rose pink silk outfit. hmmm and the hair tossled atop her head.

Now, Sarette, dear ... you are ready to play, though you will need to at least TRY to stop giggling for everyone to see *smile* .. hide behind me if you need to giggle!

lol!!! sorry lacie! the giggling is in the blood! could i borrow some earings and make-up too? i were walnut...for eyeliner...and mica for mascara...please?!?! ooh! this dress is so pretty! where did you find this! :-)

Waits for the Director to initiate the next scene.....glances down at script...seems Lacie, Dorothy and Sarette (dressed to kill) hop into a flashy red convertible (mmm toto sitting on my lap) and head off to the nearest town to .....

darn my script ends here, sheesh will have to get the next installment..

*thows dog bickies out the back of the car, hoping toto will take the bait *rolls eyes**

Driver, Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaling ... make a bee line for the Alice Springs Casino!!! We need a break from filming!!! *hand to forehead*

*whispers to Dotty and sarette (dressed to kill) .. now is the time for some fun!! *

*Growls at lacie* Whatdya think I am, one of those Hollywood dogs? I'm a bleedin' dingo...

*Looks at watch* Wonder where the 'ell Dorothy is. I've been hanging out in this dried up field for hours now, my straw is startin' to wilt...Where is that chook? Been hours since that big willy willy blew into Munchkinland

*decides to have a smoko* Oh Jaysus *smacks shirt with hand and puts out fire* I'm gonna have to quit smoking before I have a serious accident.
Now I'm thirsty, could sure use a schooner.
Dorothyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, where are youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu????????
If I keep hanging on this post by the end of this nail, I'll soon be crook. This is getting to be a real aggro...

*Sits in chair with WIZARD stenciled across the back with dark sunglasses and straw hat, smoking a Cuban cigar*
Ahh, could somebody bring me a glass with ice, a bit of water and 4 fingers of grog?

*sees lacie dressed in her finery and eyes her, ahem, attributes with a wicked grin*

*rushes in, breathless*
We're here! Are we late? Do we have time to tune? WHAT is Toto doing to the drummer's shoes?!?!

A car is seen speeding down a dirt highway, Sarette at the Wheel, Lacie sitting next to her with a glass of champers. Dotty is in the back when she spies an ol friend hanging around in the paddock ahead. She whispers into Sarette's ear and Sarette vears off the road and takes off into the bush. Dorothy leans out and grabs Scarecrow and hoists him into the back with her....She sees the scorch marks ..."Geez mate youre going to have to give up the grass" She leans down and grabs a stubbie for him out of the esky on the floor * "Here this'll take the edge off ya thirst"
" Ok girls lets get to the Casino and see what magic that Wizard can perform"

*Chugs down the stubbie* Okay Sarette, pull over here, there's the apple orchard, we need to stop here according to the script. Drop us at the edge of the yellow brick road. Get ready Dot, we have to talk to some apple trees. Lacie, are you putting in an appearance on the roof of the Tin Woodsman's house?

*thinks for awhile about the Tin Woodsman's house* .. i dont remember that bit .. can I make it up as I go along???

*jumps from the car, at a reasonable speed, (still in her green satin number) ... hoists up her skirt and jumps onto the roof!! (grins about now .. ain't I clever??)

Hey Tinman!! Tinman!! .. come play *stomping with her very very high heels on the roof* (he will notice this next time it rains .. like Y2100!! )

Casino ............... here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.. drive on, darrrrrrrrrrling!!

*crosses her fingers for the now sleezy sounding Wiz to be joining us*

*signals to Wardrobe*

can ya fix lacie's dress?

*Puffs on cigar, yawns, watches lacie's antics with a grin*

Okay sweethaht, you're supposed to be up there on the roof with your broom. I thought you were going to be the Wicked Witch of the South *WEG*

Okay lacie, lets go in my trailer so I can "coach you"
*another WEG*

Still game for the trailer, Wiz?? *wink*

*LOL* Your trailer or mine?

Mine, of course, silly you!! it's bigger and airconditioned. An absolute must in the Outback, daaaaaaaaaaaaaarling .. let me show you my etchings *wink*

*LMAO*

You have been blowing smoke up the wrong hole.
"All the witches." Come on. Come on get real
I at least was a main character.
You are going to have to send me a proper invitation.
Unmask my ass.

I have a question. What happened to the Emerald City and the Wizards big entrance? You dudes have jumped the gun. I'm going to another engagement. Post me when you have your shit together.

OBW!!! SHEESH! Contain your mouth!!! LOL...I've only said one thing in here and that would be..."A" standing for you know what...lol "ROLFLMAO!" I'm not sure what happened to the Emerlad City..But I would like to go...Lacie? How about we cut this dance short? Then come back after the city??? *looks upup at lacie and sticks lip out and bats eyelashes*please please please???
OH PLEASE?!?!?!

EXCUSE ME!
Should I have said get your ducks in a row first.
I'm still miffed at "All the witches"
WE do have names.
Not like "munchkins."
You know.

ok..chill "Out Back Witch".....lets make up so i can find lacie...*gives OutBack a big warm hug*sorry...:-) Now I have to see if lacie will take us to the Emerald City!!! YEHA!! *geos to find her buddie*

Jaysus, who's this outbackwitch? Okay people, we need to get on with this thing in the woods. Dot, Scarecrow, lets get off into the bush and find the tin woodsman. Apple trees, get ready to start throwing some fruit.
Quiet on the set...
...Aaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd, ACTION!!!!!!!

This is it! The moment Ive waited my whole life for..FAME......
okay, Dorothy is getting closer....waiting waiting ..ooo the suspense is killing me...NOW!!!!! DROP DROP DROP....

ooo I missed.*hangs branches is acute embarrassment*.sorry sir can we do it again

Dorothy munching on an apple*

Ok guys can we get this scene over with..

*places bullet proof material under wig*

Shall we test the bullet proof material??? *G* if we are going to..can I be the one to test it? LOL
*smiels sweelty*

*grabs the mother of all guns* now that's what i'm talking about!

*grabs the mother of all guns* now that's what i'm talking about!

oops!I posted 2 times! sorry!

*tapping foot* Who is allowing Sarette to drive!!!!! She does not, I repeat,does not have a drivers license---SHAE why weren't you watching over this bunch! I WILL NOT assume responsiblity for any farm animals, buildings, etc. that Sarette runs into. However, I will assume full responsibility for any and all funds given to her for driving lessons.
Thank you---her MAMA

*whispers to Director and Lacie....when do I get to bring in the Flying Sheep?*

Flying sheep? Hey, they're flying monkeys, not sheep. We're gonna use the sheep for something else. I believe we're dressing up Koalas as the flying monkeys. We won't need them for a while, but get them ready anyway......

Okay Apple trees, lets try it again, no problem, that panaflex film is only 50 bucks a meter and we're running a three camera set up. Use as many takes as you like..........NNNNNNNOOOOOTTTTT!!!!!

Okay, lets do this scene right this time

Aaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnddd...
ACTION!!!!!

Don't worry mama, that car is operated by remote control, Sarette only thinks she's driving

Appletree shakes its branches to shake off the nerves and unwittingly dumps a whole bunch of apples over Scarecrow. Once that mess is cleaned up, it quietly waits until Dorothy and Scarecrow are walking past.....
CRASH! Mission accomplished.

Meanwhile a dazed Dorothy and Scarecrow...

CUT!!!!!!! PRINT IT!!! Okay you'll be apples
That's a take!!

'she'll be apples' *sigh* .... gotta get the 'em right!!

*whispers to Aside* It was an illiteration

*sigh* i never have any fun..I KNOW how to drive!!!!!! My cousin is 57 and lets me! I sit on his lap! sheesh! I'll be able to drive in 3 years! Why not start now!!!??? *bats eyes and looks up at lacie with puupy dog face* PLease Lacie?!?! *gives lacie a BWH(big warm hug* I luv you!

Who dragged me into this? Sarette driving cars? No WAY! I once, on a number of occasions, got an award for safe driving. Driving on an uncle's lap does NOT qualify !!! Apart from that, I don't want to be in this movie because there's no woad or haggis involved. That reminds me. You don't want to know about haggis. Poor things!

YOU dragged YOU into this, Shae *L* ... ya just couldn't resist! *L*

Mama, sarette is fine .. she is under the strict and watchful eyes of Dotty and myself *grin* ........ now, theres a duo!! We promise to teach her everything we know!! Right Dot?

I dont think we need flying sheep, seamusmccool, they do continuous little poopies .. not a good thing for the hairdo! On that subject, Director, do you realise Koala's aren't really suitable to be dressed as flying monkeys? They are 'high as kites' most of the time, and when they aren't, they are sleeping! *L* It's all in the Eucalypt leaves, you see. I would suggest using Cockys instead ..

*whispers to sarette* .. save the puupy dog looks for your Dad or for the blokes .. it doesn't work on me, young lady!!

*sits quietly under the appletree pondering the 'no go unmasking ball* .... seems my social organisational skills have melted away ... *sigh*

Okay lacie, you have just been promoted to technical advisor.

*attaches wings to flying sheep in last-ditch effort to impress the director* *wonders whether to stress the fact that the continuous little poopies could really make for a scary scene in the forest*

*attaches wings to flying sheep in last-ditch effort to impress the director* *wonders whether to stress the fact that the continuous little poopies could really make for a scary scene in the forest*

If I say it twice, can I make it happen?

THAT'S a PROMOTION?? sheeeeeesh!!

NO sheep, mccoolie !! they smell AND they attracted tooo many New Zealanders *LMAO*

How about wambats?

They don't attract Kiwis do they?
And they are so determind little guys.

O how about Tasmanian devils.
I'm sure you have a few of those hang around the set.

well...how about flying squirrels!? they really glide but thats ok!!!

In the next scene, the Scarecrow and Dorothy find the Tinman right off the side of the Yellow Brick Road. Lets get it set up for the shot...

*stands in the background* ... now promoted to Technical Advisor .....

1. WOMBAT not wambat .... *shakes head* .. they are a beautiful creature!
2. Tassie Devils? .. the only ones I know ....... well, that is another story ..
3. squirels are an intoduced species .. another introduced species!! *sigh*

Listen, we have some midget stunt men from Brisbane that are going to be the flying monkeys. The special effects people promise a great make up job and we don't have to use any animals. I hate trying to direct real animals, er, uh, well, that is except for Toto the dingo....Now where the heck has Dorothy and that Scarecrow gotten off too. I guess Dot is down at the beach in MR...somebody fetch her and the Scarecrow for us please........

*runs off the set and grabs the scarecrow* come on!!! time for your sceane!!!!

*starts playing Somewhere Over the Rainbow*-- Naw, that drags too much-- *swiches to jazz improvisations*

OOC> I would have been at your Unmasking Ball, Lacie, but I didn't have Internet for awhile

well Theorchestra-why don't we take the old Over The Rainbow and put a little Jazz in it? *clicks fingers taps toes and starts to sing* Somea Where Over that bright rainbow! YAH! Where your dreams come true! (It's true folks!) take it Lacie!

uhhhh, this is heavy ....who wanted to use this as a prop?

We need 2000 more just like that Seamus, gotta build the emerald city. How soon can you get that set up?

....2.........3...............4.....*wipes sweat from nearly hairless head* uhh, excuse me Director, sir (or ma'am).... do we really need an Emerald City? How about an Onyx or Sapphire one? *runs hand through remaining follicles of hair and ponders carrying 1996 more of these dolmen capstones*


Besides, the Irish government is getting a little upset with me carting these things off to the Land of Aus....

*in producer mode*
Hmmm - I saw something that looked more like faction than fiction, and me hand slipped.
Which is why some words might have melted off the screen.

Let's not confuse this thing with things that might be confused with facts. (He said confusedly)

*goes out for a walk - carrying a large umberella - too many large animals have taken to flying about the place *

*hands Acc a raincoat* .. trust me, anywhere around Koalas, in trees or flying, you WILL need it !! *L* enjoy your walkabout.

Okay, where the heck is everybody? We need the actors out here to do this scene, the tin woodsman is tired of standing there practicing saying oil can over and over...besides, I think the producer is getting upset with the cost over runs...

*Wonders what the faction thing was*
Okay I'm ready, where's my latte'?

Okay, I give up. Tried the flying sheep...no go. Now, I have to appear before the Dail to explain the lost capstones. Don't need the political complications.

I'm buying a cappuccino machine and setting up a catering service. Maybe I can make some money from this production.

We represent the Lolipop Guild, the Lolipop Guild, the Lolipop Guild, and in the name of the Lolipop Guild, we'd like to welcome you to Munchkinland...


You guys left out our bit and we weren't gonna be denied...

oops..sorry Lolepopguild-I guess we just had to many partys...lol...want some? i have some left over from the last party.*hands Loli a snack and something to drink* it's a little stale but it's good!

hey, Lolipop Guild .. blame the scriptwiter, the driector and the producer .. i am just an extra!! .. i'll put in a good word for the small people, though ..... the ones from Brissy sound interesting enough.

*Midget sitting in chair dressed as a flying monkey, smoking a fat, long stogie*

More like a frying monkey, Jaysus it's hot in this get up...

NNNNaaahhhhhhyyyyy! Snort!
Where's my big enterance?
I get to prominade with Dottie Toto Straw Man Tin man And Hairface.
Now. Harness the buggy and let's roll.
I have a hot date at the Out Back Track.
If your not ready for me you'll have to hire a Horse of a Different Color. And she requires a crew of lighting technicians to get her to look right.
Director where's the Director?
Teckies?
What a production!
Nayyyyyy! I'm trotting.

Geez I'll have to read my script more closely..Im getting lost here!!
*grabs scarecrow and jumps into buggy *
Okay let's go find tinman and get on with this.
*puts on sunnies and hat*

um..what do i play here? *looks around for the director or lacie* they'll help me..i really don't want to be a stunt double..i haven't been training at all!!!!

*Wakes up, long white beard and shoulder legnth hair*
Jaysus, how long have I been sleeping?

Director! good greif! *graps the long beard-chops it off-and hair* Hurry! we need help here!

Take it easy, we can't do anything til all the actors are here. Where is the producer? And the casting director? Okay, lets get Dot, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Witch in here for this scene...

Dorothy here ready and waiting *s*

just waiting .. *sigh* ..not even a script spot for me .. *pout*

Sure there is, we need you on the roof of the cottage to do your magic...

um...what exacly am I??? *thinks a moment* how about The Wizards sidekick? *chuckels to herself*
