You've really found your calling. Cheers! And of course, the SUV lobbyist comes off as a real pro (actress/comedian) as does the whole production. Such fun stuff! You've really found your calling.

That will change a lot of minds. I think people should look more closely how George runs across the street in sheer terror. That will change a lot of minds.

Yep, ZOZOs should to to WY,,,,uh, I don't think with those fast roads they'd last long. Of course, I don't think they'd go there - no children to play with on the streets...

George deserves Best Supporting Actor! Although it seems that from all the personal emails and comments people love our actor as the Auto Lobbyist. Look for her own personal vignette in the very near future. Who would people nominate and for what awards in the Zozo? Everyone was so good! Gecko,

Absolutely charming film quite suitable for submission to the Academy! Would be nice to see street signs/art marking the latest Zozo sightings and meanderings of these wonderful creatures.

But I've heard a few intrepid ones come out during the one-week Marathon closure, only to flee back into the Rambles again for another year.
