If only you'd use your powers for GOOD......


answering machine message #6: "um, I just wanted to call you and let you know that somehow or another I believe that this was just a great big game, that you knew all along that the restaurant was closed, and you sent me on a wild goose chase. You live right around the corner from that restaurant, and you could've had me meet you there. I just wanted to take you to dinner, have a nice night; meet you after having talked on the phone and on the internet. I applied for a job in Sarasota Florida, and just wanted a simple, cordial meal. But it was all a whole big game, and I WAS PLAYED - and touche' - you did a great job, the way you had it all planned out, you had me spend money, and stand out in the rain, and....."

but alas, the machine only handles 30 or 60 seconds of rambling at a pop, so he didn't get to record his complete thought there....

yes, aren't I ingenious? I made a grown man fly up from Hotlanta, stay in a hotel in midtown, then arranged for a cab driver to pick him up and take him to Harlem instead of the lower east side, getting him to the restaurant 45 minutes late, which i had the restaurant close down and change into an Italian Bistro, and then, the rain - that was a nice touch, Torrential rain, huge downpour, my friends, and I can do it to YOU, too, if I set my evil mind to it.

mom used to always say" "If only you'd use your powers for good, Damien, we'd all be a lot better off"

now now, we all know that Lee Remick didn't make it much past halfway thru the first movie, meanwhile, I went on to 2 more sequels, PLUS a made-for-TV 4th movie, and somewhere in there I almost become President, so......
