    Several stories have been going around claiming Hollywood agents and managers have received emails saying, "I hope you are okay after the fires, but have you had time to read my script yet?"

    Normally I'd post this in the Steam Room, but my membership slipped back to basic when I came off worse in a head-to-head battle with a bailiff (long story).
