Can you orchestrate my songwriter friend's love song ? He will be doing the score for our film...  NO

Can we keep 100% of your publishing and writer's and offer you deferred pay so we
can write you off as a business loss and never pay you ?                                                        NO

Can you make it sound just like John Williams ?                                                                    NO

Well, can you make it sound like Tchaikovsky then ?                                                              NO

Can you also do all the folley and sound design for another $500 ?                                           NO

Can you let my non-singing girlfriend sing along with the orchestra ?                                         NO

Can you teach my nephew how to score a film so he can do our future indie's and replace you?  NO

Can we sit behind you and hang while you are working on our score ?                                      NO

Can you do the mixing and sound editing at no extra charge ?                                                 NO

Can we re-edit our rookie film so you can re-write all the music to fit things right ?                     NO


Anyone with more NO ideas ? I Love this...
