So let me get this straight. He was thrown out of the union and
prevented from working, however they want him to pay an $81,000
fine.
What authority do they have to enforce the fine? I think the more
successful lawsuit will be from his end citing the unions
restriction
against him making a living. My guess he'll be back in the union in
no
time, maybe even hosting their next award show and joking about it.
Every performance has a fool. ?I think Quaid is a good actor and I
appreciate his creative process. :)
You should ask Harry, he's so refined and cultured that he watches
all
of those Hollywood fictional movies.....
Yeah, and I'd think that the union would be more interested in
sucking
up dues than kick out a payee.
But what I consider the irony is this.
Where was the union to protect him when the union was throwing him
out????
My understanding is that Quaid blew off his performances, walked off
the
stage on several different dates, and by behaving in a highly
unprofessional manner, caused a number of performers and allied
theater
workers to lose their jobs. He was brought up on charges by his fellow
Equity actors, and the charges stuck.

You're objecting to professionals policing their fellow professionals?

Not at all. Policing professionals by fellow professionals is good and
should be encouraged. and honestly, I wish it would happen more often
especially in the medical profession. (personal experience), but
that's another story....

My point should be that ifrhis report is correct, and before the crap
hit the fan with him (Quaid) that bad, why wasn't he fired and
replaced with an under study? it's happened before and I'm sure will
happen in the future

Somethings that should, just doesn't make sense.

Firing Quaid is not the job of his fellow actors.

No, it's not their job to fire him, just their job to try and get him
fired.


Hey...idiot...yeah, I mean *you* Wally...Randy walked off his job and the
show closed. Got it? He walked off his job. Got it?

What I've read states nothing about his walking off the show.

Harry,
While this should not be a surprised, you are wrong, he did not walk off
his job. GET IT?

Gene, I can't really tell if you are addressing me about "going to
make up lies..." or not. But if you are addressing me. I will plead
that Quaid is permanently banned. Even if the link I provided states
that he "resigned" I felt it would be under the pretense of harsher
punishment.

I will also plead that "I acted upon the information I recieved and
interpretted so"

Anyhow, I confess that I should have investigated other links ...

Certainly, not. My bad, I *should* have said, "If one was going to
make up lies..." While abroad in USENET and not subject to APA or the
like which forces me to type formally, I tend to fall into bad habits
and type the way we might be talking face-to-face.....

What I really meant was that Quaid and wife are saying that
allegations against them are false. I'm merely observing that at least
some of the actions they are accused of were committed in the presence
of an (actual) audience. The SODDI defense (Some Other Dude Did It)
tends to fail, miserably, in cases such as this..... :-)

Too bad the union couldn't do a drug screen on Quaid before restoring him to
active status.

Drugs and drink. Too bad, because he was a decent character actor, and
was pretty funny in some of his films.
