DEAL !

Last Saturday I went with Rachel my sister to the tryouts for 'Deal or No Deal' in Salt Lake. We brought our 13 page applications and waited in a ridiculously long line for our 20 second interview. They put you through in groups of 10 and if they like someone you move to a second interview. I got to this 2nd part and then was told they would keep my app on file. I was number 2,900 to be interviewed and we were in the front of the line. There was all kinds of crazy people and many were from out of state who flew here just to tryout. Hmmmmm.......... $220 dollar plane ticket, 5 hours in line, 20 second interview to win the lottery.

Longest zigzaggin line you've ever seen. This picture is about 1/5 of the line when we got there.I snuck a picture of this guy. ON HIS BELT: Keys, mickey mouse knife, buss pass, coffee mug. You never can be too prepared. Me and Rachel were laughing uncontrollably every time he passed us.

Just don't be one of those people who totally screw it up. Um...500,000 dollars? No Deal Howie! That's pretty crazy stuff though. Phew! What a line!

So Megan, my sister tried out in SacTown, but she had a get to the front of the line free pass. She did not make it. You would think they would let you on if you have a support group made up of a Mormon twin, and African American husband, and a gay father.

You know the whole thing is all rigged to get commercial ratings.

Yo, I'm shawn. Yo, I am the shawnster...Shawnie is hype. I tell myself that daily and sometimes I think that is true
