Okay, I did not write this. I do not take any credit for it. I recieved it on one of the mailing lists I belong too. I believe it was posted on a message board. If you wrote it, or know who did, e-mail me and I'll give credit. I think it was someone named Sarah. .
It's really, really funny.

September 1, 1999
Interesting evening. Met man called something Luza
and woman named Brenda Witch at EA (Egotists Anonymous)
meeting at Skybar. Both work for General Hospital; also
apparently longtime EA members.
Can't remember what either said, but have card. Will not need of course as am very handsome and loaded with talent and will no doubt make it on bigscreen
very soon.
October 1,1999
Ran into Luza/Witch duo at EA meeting again. Was canceled as usual as no one would listen to anyone else. Luza/Witch especially unfriendly to each other, kept fighting
over creative control of conversation. Asked if was
interested in role of Lucky Something on GH. Told them was
weighing numerous prime-time offers. Said Lucky was son of Luke and Laura;seemed to think I should know who Luke and Laura
are.
Had hair cut, frosted and spiked.
December 1, 1999
EA meeting postponed as Skybar not large enough to hold all LA Egotists. Saw Luza/Witch team, ignored me.
Will show them.
January 4, 2000
11:00am - Showed up at GH set, dressed in character - tight jeans, tight shirt, spiked hair.
11:01am - burned by cigar tossed by someone named
Tony Geary, then ejected from lot. Will persevere and
prove am right person to play Lucky Senator.
January 5, 2000
10:30am - Was told to show up early, as might impress TPTB. Not sure what stands for - The People That Belong (to SAG), perhaps. Seems others have arrived earlier, however.
10:31am - Am ejected from lot again. TG person stares at and scares me.
January 6, 2000
9:30am - Surely must be first person on lot. Oh, no - is TG coming at me, cigar blazing. Run and hide under car, messing up
perfect spiky do.
Must go home, as can't be seen without perfect hair.
January 7, 2000
8:00am - Can't possibly get up this early every day. Am sure when hired will set own schedule, arrange taping time according to workout and hair needs, with time off to audition for bigscreen breakthrough.
8:15am - recognized by Bob Luza, and let on lot. Says am perfect for part, will be ''huge.'' Couldn't agree more.
Told to put on plaid shirt and jeans and to lie down on bed. Unlike most auditions, where usually asked to take off
clothes before lying on bed.
Camera shoots from various angles. Told to sit behind desk and put feet up. Again, several angles shot. Bizarre set of shots involving arms, legs, back of head and chessboard.
Apparently Lucky Spinster is some sort of Wizard-of-Oz-like creature, never seen.
Am given long history of the Spinster family and told should read before screen-test. Left file at Starbucks. Will not need as am obviously only choice for role- have wonderful, spiky hair, perfect teeth and body. That Joshua Jackson kid was skinny,
puffed-up no-talent. Not as if he won Emmys or anything whereas I
was nominated at least four times. Maybe not four, as
was not on B&B that long, but still. Would have been had stayed and done job.
4:00pm - Send out notice to Soapstarworld.com that have been hired to play Lucky Spinster. Am sure is okay, as am bound
to get part.
Who else could they get?
5:00pm - Article appears on soapworld site -obviously have no fact checker as referred to character as Lucky Spencer and
to old Lucky as three-time Emmy winner Jonathan
Jackson. Have never heard of him.
January 8, 2000
Bizarre retraction of soapstar world
story - something about not really having contract. Am not sure of details. Have appointment to get hair frosted, cut
and spiked. Will go to GH after that.
January 28, 2000
Still no word from GH - reading script for Saved
By The Bell: The Post-College Years. Think is great
opportunity. Seems ex-Lucky, Jeremy Jackson's brother
appeared on show. Am better than both Jacksons. Have
perfect spiky hair and have been nominated for an Emmy.
Should stop telling people am playing Lucky Spinster, according to agent. Apparently displeases fans -whoever they are.
January 30, 2000
Hurrah - have inexplicably been hired to play Lucky Spencer on GH - think maybe is new character, as different from Lucky Spinster role originally sought.
Strange list of rules includes avoiding talking to Tony Geary unless spoken to first, never referring to self or character
as ''Cowboy.''
Must not use gel in hair - surely can't be serious- as is all reserved for an Ingrid Radishmaker.
Wonder if she's hot.
Can't wait to start so can leave show when get big
primetime/movie roles.
Forgot to read scripts/character history. Will not be important, as am good ad-libber. TG will never be able to keep up with me.
February 4, 2000
First Day On Job - Hurrah!
9:00am - am late for first call, but is okay as am new kid on set. Atmosphere eerie mix of hostility, amazement and tension. That Jonathan Richmond must have been real pain. Will win all over with perfect spiky hair and irresistible charm.
9:10am - am ejected from set after asking tall, balding, earringed man to get me coffee. Muttered something about Luke
Spinster as was tossing me onto pavement.
Surely is mix-up and will be back on set soon.
February 29, 2000
Start first day on SBTB: TP-CY. Am so excited hair is standing up straight on own.
Is definitely big break, much bigger than other role that Jonathan Jackson got. Will be seen by many more people as
Screech's younger brother than as Lucky Spinster or Anakin Skywalker. No one goes to those Star Trek movies anymore.
