"Well, now the big fella",Tex resumed,  pointing   at Grrr," called me and asked me if I would do him a favor and consider the part, which if ya'all consider that  he was a "name" after JP, was a  mighty kind way of him puttin it. Any way, I went down and was just expectin some extra work, a walk on a bit of roarin, that sort of thing. But the Big fella who was to play the Aztec Rex had a contract dispute, the producer and director were on a very tight shoot schedule and asked if I would fill in. They used some trick camada work to make me look like a big rex. Well Now after a few days Grrr calls to say howdy and as we were talking about the  new part  Grrr asked if they adjusted my contract as I was now playin the starin role. Well I said I just trust that they do right by me."  Tex stopped to take a drink of his sweet tea.

"You are too trusting Shorty. Ole Ape, they were still paying him as an "extra'" walk on. no roaring parts,  basic scale. Well we Rex gotta stick together."
"So did you go Jurassic on them pal ?" asked Bob.
"Worse, I called Bruce the Shark!" said Grrr with an evil T-Rex grin.

Pard. Ya'll know Bruce?" Tex asked Bob.
"Sure, I met him a few years ago on a cruise Stef and I took with Grrr and Gretta. I know that he is a big shot in the movie business among other things and a very fair and decent being. I do not think he would like a friend of Grrr's  or anyone for that matter, to be cheated." said Bob.
"Bruce has been in the Business a long while and knows everyone, when he calls folks in the Business listen. Well, Next morning the producer called me in and had this new contract; I got star billing, 10% of the gross, a big raise, mah own trailer. Fellas said that they were fixin to talk to me bout this but this was the first chance. Found out later that Bruce had had a powwow with them". said Tex with a grin. 
"Well, I finished the flick, paid mah bills and as Bruce suggested put half in a computer stock and such. Now? Well still doing a bit of actin, but old Ringo and me a'int worried about things any more.
I was fixen to visit some kin in the swamp and figured that might be nice to see mah pard Grrr.
Turned out even better as I made a new pard." Said a happy Tex
