                        NOTE FROM KRISTIAN:

               On a film set, the crew member called
           the "Dolly Grip" is responsible for pushing
                 the camera during a moving shot. 


              The Top 9 Pet Peeves of the Dolly Grip 


 9. Hypnotic jiggling on action babes makes for sweaty palms.

 8. Hoity-toity Key Grips and Best Boys always grab the chocolate
    donuts first.

 7. Sick and tired of that "I've Been Working on the Railroad"
    song.

 6. Wearing the huge wig and enormous falsies makes those tight
    shots a real pain.

 5. By the time your name rolls up, the only people left in the
    house are pimply-faced film geeks.

 4. Eight years in the industry and your father still can't
    tell people what his son does with a straight face.

 3. Directors who expect you to push them to craft service and
    back.

 2. Gravel


    and the Number 1 Pet Peeve of the Dolly Grip...
    

 1. Even when Internet humor lists make fun of you, they first
    have to explain exactly what you do.
