>    An out-of-work actor gets a call from his agent one day.
>    "I've got you a job" says his agent.
>    "That's great" says the actor, what is it?"
>    "Well" says his agent "it's a one-liner"
>    "That's okay" replies the actor, "I've been out of work for so long
>    I'll take anything. What's the line?"
>    "Hark I hear the cannons roar" says the agent.
>    "I love it" says the actor
>    "When's the audition?"
>    "Wednesday" says the agent.   Wednesday comes and the actor arrives
>    at the audition. He marches on stage and shouts:
>    "Hark I hear the cannons roar".
>    "Brilliant" says the director, "you've got the job, be here 9
>    o'clock Saturday evening".
>    The actor is so chuffed he got the job that he goes on a major
>    bender.  He wakes up 8:30 Saturday evening and runs to the theatre
>    continually repeating his line; "Hark I hear the cannons roar, hark
>    I hear the cannons roar, hark I hear the cannons roar".
>    He arrives at the stage entrance, out of breath and is stopped by
>    the bouncer.
> 
>    "Who the hell are you?" asks the bouncer.
>    "I'm "hark I hear the cannons roar"
>    "You're "hark I hear the cannons roar", you're late, get up to

>    "Who the hell are you" asks the makeup girl.
>    "I'm "hark I hear the cannons roar"
>    "You're hark I hear the cannons roar", you're late, sit down here"
>    and she applies the makeup. "Now quick, get down to the stage,
>    you're about to go on".
>    So he dashes down to the stage.
> 
>    "Who the hell are you" asks the stage manager.
>    "I'm "hark I hear the cannons roar"
>    "You're 'hark I hear the cannons roar' ? Get on there, the curtains
>    about to go up !"
>    So he tears onto the stage. The curtains rise, the house is full.
> 
>    Suddenly there is an almighty bang behind him, and the actor shouts
>    "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?"
