I couldn't help but chuckle to myself when I saw that the first name that Cathy Michael, our library connection, typed in was Werner Herzog, when the night before I had been shown Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans. A very strange cop drama directed by Werner in which Nicholas Cage, a very "bad Lieutenant" in the New Orleans police force who is trying to solve a murder case while juggling an addiction to almost all narcotics. He is also a pimp to Eva Mendes, a high class prostitute, and a friend to Xzibit, a drug lord and gang kingpin. A very interesting tale.
On a more productive note, Arturo mentioned how I was shipping up fake weapons from home. These would be airsoft guns which make great props for anyone who has a story that calls for guns. Basically for any weapon pistol or rifle ever created there is an airsoft gun that is almost identical, especially in video which doesn't communicate how heavy the weapon is or how it feels. Airsoft guns can be picked up at a Dick's sporting goods store, Walmart of the internet if you are looking for a more specific model. Just google cheap airsoft guns and you could find plenty of good deals that could fit a pistol or rifle that your script may call for.
