                                                           A DAY AT THE SPECTRUM

In between Transformers sequels, Optimus Prime has been earning a second income as a house painter; he’s been getting up bright and early in order to finish a house-painting job out in Snoop Town aka Long Beach. Optimus Prime’s co-workers have nothing but sparkling praise for him. One co-worker said, “I thought he was going to be, you know, high maintenance. You know, ‘Ew, my lasers  have paint on them. Why does it smell? Why do we have to listen to classic rock all day?’ But no, he’s been a trouper. Some days, I don’t think he’s showered from the day before. – Kiran

SMILE OF THE DAY

I confess that the recent earthquakes in Orange County have made me afraid of losing my most valuable possessions, so now I’ve started carrying them around with me. They include: two designer sweat suits, flip flops, my recently completed Sex and the City-meets-werewolves script, a laptop, running shoes, an assistant, four different sets of sunglasses, two Blackberry batteries, a lead paper weight, a nylon stuffed with honeydews, Mad Men season one on DVD and some tadpoles I caught down by the river. – Shaan

  IF YOU KEEP MAKING THAT FACE IT’S GOING TO STAY THAT WAY FOREVER

Today I’m dressed as a space-age airline steward with my Matrix sunglasses [not pictured] and antenna hat. But please do not ask me for a pillow or three extra waters. – Kiran

SMILE OF THE DAY

Shaan and I have just returned from the 4th Annual Thumb War Competition in Australia and I admit: I am a teensy weensy bit jet lagged from our flight. But I have a wonderful aid in fighting against jet leg: Red Bull. So, right now, my body is telling me that it’s Friday evening in Orange County and I should be asleep, but it’s late Thursday morning in Sydney and according to most Aussies, I should be up being productive. So, I’ve had… I don’t know how many Red Bulls right now, but it’s gotten me to the point where my body is feeling like a Tuesday afternoon – I want to say around like 11 am. I’ll be good for a while. I’m not going to do a walkabout, but I could go shopping. I should also point out that I have an assistant on-call at all times to provide orange slices and a B-12 shot in case I crash. – Kiran
