Speaking of which, actor Kevin Costner has shot several westerns here, and is building a film studio near our airport. He is filming now, and advertising for extras (minimum wage, 12-hour days). I think I’ll pass. On the other hand, I could be the evil landlord, twirling my fake moustache as I evict someone.
Like I said you should look Kevin up. My ex girlfriend who passed a few years ago used to date him when he was younger and she said he was quite fond of the peace pipe. In fact he rarely puts it down
sdr: I have never seen a scorpion here in St. George.
