It has often been mentioned in the past how our crew is just a bunch of friends that “grew up” working together here in Los Angeles, but the truth is that’s only a very core selection of us. So whenever we “ramp up” into a big Hollywood production we generally have to flesh the staff out with a whole lot more responsible types, like people we’ve never met before. Fortunately, those who handle the interview process know the irreverent environment in which we work and play—the gist of which doesn’t always jive with the politically correct ways of some professional types—and screen accordingly. But when Mark Swenson applied for the position of Unit Manager on jackass number two, he was more than fine with these working conditions; in fact, you could even say it allowed him to be that much more liberated around us with his extra-curricular drag-like activities. So much so that Mark even requested his parting production gift of a personalized jackass sweater be stitched with the word “faggot.” Anyway, the long and the short of this is that Mark just got married today down at the West Hollywood courthouse and we all wanted to say, “Congratulations, faggot!”

“celebrate diversity, y’all!”
