OMGWTF not *HIM*
This guy is a *dick* to work for and the opportunity probably isn't that great. They *HATE* him on alt.faires.renaissance and he's a little mousy guy with an ego the size of Dallas County, TX.

email me if you want details. If you posted this on sword_talk you would be amused by the reaction of several members
Re: OMGWTF not *HIM*
The actuality is I figured whoever the guy was he had to be a jerk. Just based on the requirements for the people auditioning. "Bombshell figure" for women is just kind of a rude requirement if nothing else. I mean, if it's a "reality" show... shouldn't there be some reality to it?
