This is funny.  Too bad she doesn't know about this webpage....  

So I'm leaving tomorrow morning for Big Bend National Park, which is about eight hours southwest of Austin. We are filming the movie "Little Dove" there. While I am way excited for my first starring role in a (non-student) film, I am apprehensive for a couple of reasons.

First of all, did I mention that we (the entire cast and crew) are CAMPING? Apparently we will be an hour away from the nearest town, and it wouldn't be prudent to get hotel rooms.

Secondly, the set is an hour hike away from the camp site.

Thirdly, there may or may not be showers available. I may or may not have my own tent. There may or may not be cell phone coverage. And I highly doubt I'll have wireless Internet or even electricity.

Um. Do y'all know me? It's true that I consider myself "country", but my idea of camping is pulling up to a camp site, pitching the tent, and burning logs that I bought from the Walmart.

My idea of hiking is wearing new shoes to the mall for an all day shopping trip. I don't even know what to pack. So far, I have packed an air mattress, a pump, pink sweat pants, and my camera. For the trip I bought a gray thermal shirt and a teal sleeping bag.

I am FREAKING out! I just read the following on the Big Bend website:

"The largest spider found in Big Bend National Park is the Tarantula. Males are often seen crossing the roads in early fall searching for a mate."

I will DIE if I see a friggin' tarantula! For real. So if y'all don't see a post from me by Tuesday, just know that I saw a tarantula and I died of fright. Geez. Wish me luck, y'all.

I NEVER trust authority, people in power positions, people striving to become powerful, people that have a need to be important, people that didn't get enough attention as a kid, people that need to dominate. These people have a need to CONTROL YOU, CONTROL YOU, CONTROL YOU, CONTROL YOU, CONTROL YOU.(I was looking at David's former bottom line; the one about power and corruption). His bottom line changed just recently.

If ever there is a time we need to thin the heard at BB.  I hope I am not camping next to them this weekend.

If the rest of the crew and cast are anything like her.....

they may never make it back to civilazation.  : lol

hope she sees a big spider.. : )

[Bobcat]

It sounds like this movie will be showing exclusively on YouTube.

Ah, Yuppies, visit to site tells it all. :lol:  :lol: Thanks Shane.

[Goldilocks]

I am so glad to know the color of her thermal shirt and her "teal" sleeping bag.  Being color coordinated is sooo important when you are camping.   :lol:

[SHANEA]

Being color coordinated is sooo important when you are camping.   :lol:

You should go to work for REI and come out with a color coordinated camping line - match the cooler to the tent to the sleeping bag to the stove to the lantern to the clothes.  You could come out with a complete "Goldilocks line" - your new collection would be the "bear" collection  :P  or the "Cat Tail Falls Collection".  The Martha Stewart of camping and outdoors.  Might be a market for this.

Made me laugh big time this morning.   :lol:

Need to make sure we check back with her and following her continuing exploits and get a trip report from her movie making in BIBE.

I wonder if it's a porno flick?   :shock:

[MarkB]

Wondering if she got her permit for commercial activities...Bet not....Sounds a little flaky to me.

If the rest of the crew and cast are anything like her.....

they may never make it back to civilazation.  : lol

hope she sees a big spider.. : )

Indiana Adams....must be Indiana Jones' more urbane cousin. I was going to post a reply on her site that tarantulas were the least of her worries....that giant scorpions gnawing through your tent to get in your sleeping bag were the real threat. In the end it was just too much trouble to log on and do it.

In the end it was just too much trouble to log on and do it.

I tried to post a reply to her, but she's one of those that only accepts replys from her friends list.

[Undertaker]

Shane can you post general reply, looking at site and friends, I get the idea that their idea of camping is any hotel less than Waldorf Astoria is roughing it.   :lol:  :lol:  8)

Just reviewed her acting most credits say her ability is to be "girl" 8)  8)

Shane-
You post some obscure things on this page (and I love it)...but that might be up there as a top 10.
I just didn't take you for a MySpace kind of guy!

By the way, that ice machine business link you sent earlier in the week was hilarious.  If you didn't go to the site and watch the video, I highly recommend it for comic relief.

Only "a few years to recoup your money" was funny too.
I had no idea people got so excited about ice.
"I come here a few times a week!" exclaims one excited ice patron!
 :lol:
