Thanks for sharing. Unsolved Mysteries was influential to me as a kid, it came on just after Rescue 911, then it was my bedtime. I used to watch it with my folks and listen to Coast to Coast AM (we had long commutes to the family farm late at night). It's no wonder I still dig for the truth and ended up here.
About 20 years ago I was an extra on One Tree Hill. My boyfriend at the time got started doing PA work through it, afaik he's still in the business. My favorite memory was when we were shooting a party scene and someone came over the bullhorn to say "hey guys, just a reminder do NOT EAT the prop pizza, it's been sitting out for 3 days, just pretend to eat it!" LOL. I have 4 kids myself, cheers to you!
Sounds like you're a Jack(lene) of all trades! We were shooting in North Carolina in a warehouse in the summer, so just thinking of that old pizza makes me want to vomit. I remember a guy came around with a heat thermometer gun, saying it was almost too hot. But they pushed through. Craft service was good to us and Sophia Bush bought us all slushies.

And in the production circle of life, that prop pizza might be recycled into prop vomit. I made some hairy vomit once for that movie The Chase.

We can all agree that Craft Services is the most important aspect of production..
