I've been trying to think of what my favorite Dino anecdote might be. It's tough. I've known the guy a long time, and as far as anecdotes go, he's pretty much a machine.
I guess if there's one story I can tell you that I think defines Dino (and it is by no means the funniest one) it would be us driving to work in LA. We were PA's on some shitty film, and we had to drive a lot, cuz we filming all over the place. We had a 1962 Comet that Dino bought for a very low figure from Mike Stoyanov (of TV's Blossom). Anyway, we didn't have a lot of money, so we rarely put gas in the Comet, and Dino's favorite thing was driving on the highway, in the middle of nowhere, with the gas guage on EMPTY, loudly proclaiming "I've NEVER run out of gas!!!! I can't imagine EVER running out of gas! I wonder what it would FEEL like to RUN OUT OF GAS?!?!?!" And then he would go on to curse Jesus and God and whoever else, in the most profane language he could imagine, just daring the powers that be to empty his gas tank.
The further out into the boondocks we were, the funnier the bit was.
Of course we never ran out of gas.
That is not why I'm an athiest today, but it sure didn't hurt.
Anyway, TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!! 8PM ET SUPER CRAZY HAPPY FUN TIME SEXY CHAT WITH Dino Stamatopoulos, creator of MORAL OREL!!!!!!
I'm going to start a new Moral Orel post, and then we'll just rev up the ol' chat machine in the comments.
