ISDN session with Brendan in Cork and he spoke about how much trouble a producer can make for himself with an over written script.

"If you do that then you're really banjaxed!"

Banjaxed! Perfect word.

Is that in Merriam-Webster?

The same applies for under-written scripts. Those are harder to pull off I think.

I fully intend to incorporate BANJAXED into my vocabulary. It seems to be the quintessential descriptor of fouled-up copywriting.

Have you been working with the copywriters around here lately... I think that BANJAXED came from the last two scripts? Smile

I thought that was when a band was hi-jacked while traveling to the next town?... Oh wait... I'm thinking BANDJACKED, you're talking BANJAXED. Similar, but there's no guitar.
