I placed the flamingos in the pix as a (choose one or more)
• Tribute to Urban Cowboy, for having the cajones [sp?] to place a pink flamingo in his front yard
• A way to poke fun at Urban Cowboy for having pink flamingos in his front yard
• A form of self-chastisemnet. I would cause myself to be embarrassed by placing pink flamingos in the yard (something I wouldn't be caught dead having in my yard), on a public forum, as punishment for making fun of Urban Cowboy about his pink flamingo
• way to express what I imagined most of you East-Coasters think we out here in CA always see because you are under the mistaken belief that all of us out here on the Left Coast " . . . work the westcoast weed", as Serotta put it.
• All of the above.
I'll have you know that this homage to the Pink Flamingo / Urban Cowboy / Serotta's weed comment / Dennis Hopper thing, came at no small expense!!!
Sure, I could have pick up a plastic flamingo on ebay, as was mentioned above, but no!!!! To capture the true essence I needed a REAL flamingo.
So I called one of the studio's animal wranglers and asked if I could get a flamingo for the day. Unfortunately, they were all booked, being used for the remake of "Daktari" (another bad 60's TV show being turned into a movie . . . because Hollyweird has run out of original ideas . . . but I digress).
Anyway, the wrangler tells me that although all the regular flamingos are booked, he can get me some STUNT flamingos. Wow . . . that means, that on top of having to pay the standard SAG flamingo day-rate, I'm going to have to pay extra for the stuntman's union animal rate (which is pretty steep) . . . but screw it, I need the shot!
Or not . . . I could have just photoshopped the damn bird in the pix.
Either way. it's nothing to worry about, nor is it lame.

I have always heard that the people who take pride in the pink flamingo department are the ones to watch out for. If you knock on their door to ask a question (any question) they are more likely to shoot you, then ask the question.
I guess I suck as a comedian.
Sorry if upset anyone.

What? Now I'm more confused!
Let's just say . . . pink flamingos . . . whatever!
I swear this just happened to me.... I'm lost!
I would hate to pay for those union birds though.
I wonder if the stunt birds can switch feet??
What other stunts can they do? Might be worth paying a couple of ours just to see what they can do.
