Muppets Most Wanted Trailer – Leave Ricky Gervais a message

Posted on by

So yesterday I saw the trailer for Muppets Most Wanted, coming out in the spring of 2014.  About a minute into it, Ricky Gervais’s character, Dominic, is sitting at a table surrounded by Muppets.  Introducing himself he lays his business card on the table and immediately I see that there is a REAL phone number visible on the card.

Dominic Badguy 213-293-5218

213-293-5218.  I have never been there, but I know 213 to be Los Angeles because I am one of those people who, for some reason, remembers a lot of area codes.

I immediately dial the number and there is recording of Ricky Gervais / Dominic Badguy, saying that he is always looking for new talent and asking you to leave a message. He directs you to the website BadguyManagement.com which redirects to BadguyTalent.com where you can fill out a form to register to win a trip to L.A. to see the premiere of Muppets Most Wanted.  Under the pretext that you are applying for him to represent you as a talent manager.

I left a message on the voicemail saying I would love to be represented by Badguy Talent and I left my phone number.

Today I got a text from “Dominic Badguy” saying, “Thanks for your message! I’d love to hear more. Call back and sing me a real tune.” — So I did. I sang “Happy Birthday” kind of like Marilyn Monroe sang it to JFK all those years ago.  And for the happy birthday name I used: Dominic Badguy.  I will let you know if he takes me on as a client  🙂

This post is a heads-up for the handful of people who kindly signed up a long time ago to follow this blog, Me and Ben Browder. I have finally decided a direction for this blog which will be to post some of my favorite stuff here. Stuff from many different categories, so it will be a work in progress. This particular post is to notify you that initially I will be posting a BUNCH of photos to this blog that I have saved on my computer. Quotes, funnies, etc. I just don’t want anyone to unsubscribe prematurely thinking I will be posting a BUNCH of photos to the blog everyday.  If you can suffer through the initial onslaught, it will return to a couple of posts a week. Plus you might like the pics.  Just stuff from the web.

Thanks for your time. Kathleen  :o)
