A young man walked into an agent's office in Hollywood and
said, 'I want to be a movie star.' Tall, handsome
and, with experience on Broadway, he had the right
credentials.
The agent asked, 'What's your name?' The guy said,
'My name is Penis van Lesbian.'
The agent said, 'Sir, I hate to tell you, but in order to
get into Hollywood , you are going to have to change your
name.. 'I will NOT change
my name! The van Lesbian name is centuries old. I
will not disrespect my grandfather by changing my name. Not
ever.'
The agent said, 'Sir, I have worked in Hollywood for years.
You will NEVER go far in Hollywood with a name like Penis
van Lesbian! I'm telling you, you will HAVE TO change
your name, or I will not be able to represent you.'
'So be it! I guess we will not do business together,' the
guy said, and he left the agent's office.
Five years later the agent opens an envelope sent to his
office.
Inside the envelope is a letter and a check for $50,000.
The agent is awe-struck.
Who would possibly send him $50,000? He reads the letter
enclosed.
Dear Sir, Five years ago, I came into your office wanting
to become an actor in Hollywood .. You told me I needed to
change my name.
Determined to make it with my God-given birth name, I
refused. You told me I would never make it in Hollywood with
a name like Penis van Lesbian.
After I left your office, I thought about what you said. I
decided you were right. I had to change my name. I had
too much pride to return to your office, so I signed with
another agent.. I would never have made it
without changing my name, so the enclosed check is a token
of my appreciation.
Thank you for your advice.
Sincerely, Dick van Dyke

Re: Name Change
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

The trouble with trouble is...it always starts as fun.
The most precious jewels you will ever wear around your neck is the arms of your children...
