I fear it would precipitate an apocalyptic extinction event. Jimmy: (without saying a word) "Check out these sweet ass brass drawer pulls that are the perfect finishing touch to this project." POW! zzzt zzzt Adam: "So I've gotta tell you about these drawer pulls... about 7 years ago I was on the set of this and that production and I ran into a guy who had these really interesting brass handled chisels. I asked him where he got them and he tells me about his uncle who is a brass worker in Milan and if I ever need any custom brass work he can hook me up. So on this project I an trying to decide on the perfect drawer pull when out of the blue I remember from years back that guy on this and that production whose uncle is a brass worker in Milan, only I don't remember the guys name. Well the set director over at this and that production is a friend of the guy who..."

Any questions that I have, I re-wind and watch again and again and I learn from you huge.

Hardware store clerk elbows a fellow employee as Jimmy Diresta walks in. Jimmy- "Hey guys I'm here to get two gallons of wood glue." One employee shouts "Yesssss!" The other one looks disappointed, pulls $5 out of his wallet and hands it to the happy guy who starts ringing up the sale and says, "Sorry Mr. Diresta, me and Frankie here had a bet when ya walked in. He said "Five bucks it's nails" and I said "No way- it's glue." Jimmy laughs, puts a box of glue in the floorboard to his scooter and later disappears into a basement on the lower East side like Batman with a table saw.
