Really, really bad lawyering ( A real estate lawyer tries act as a copyright attorney to stop a rental service from renting a DVD they bought.

Trained monkeys could do this job, I just care about team work. ( ummm... if you think of your team as trained monkeys don't be surprised if they throw feces at you )
There is a waiter at the neighborhood wofty pizza place that I need to box up and send to shrift. She'd love him and make him sleep with other hot boys and he'd love that, it's totally win/win.
Context? If you insist. meara (I CAN HAS meara?) and I grabbed dinner there.
But the point is? shrift should totally have this guy.

I thought this was pretty nifty. Variety did a feature called, "10 Screenwriters to Watch." The list includes Danny Strong.
