Scott,
Thanks so much for putting Shmucks With Underwoods out into cyberspace.
I was asked by a member why the name, why Shmucks With Underwoods? Here’s how I answered:
The term: Shmucks with underwoods is a derogatory remark attributed to Jack Warner at Warner Bros. way back when. Supposedly, he stated:
"Actors? Schmucks. Screenwriters? Schmucks with Underwoods."
I embrace this put-down as a gauntlet thrown and I hope our little group will disprove Mr. Warner's remark.
I hope all of you will stop on by and take a look, then join us in learning, teaching and doing.
Keep Writing!
