Broadway, he

 > The agent asked, "What's your name?"
 >
 > The guy said, "My name is Penis van Lesbian."
 >
 > The agent said, "Sir, I hate to tell you, but in order to get into
 > Hollywood , you are going to have to change your name."
 >
 > "I will NOT change my name! The van Lesbian name is centuries old, I will
 > not disrespect my grandfather by changing my name. Not ever."
 >
 > The agent said, "Sir, I have worked in Hollywood for years... you will
 > NEVER go far in Hollywood with a name like Penis van Lesbian!
 > I'm telling you, you will HAVE TO change your name or I will not be 
able to

 >
 > "So be it! I guess we will not do business together" the guy said and he
 > left the agent's office.
 >
 > FIVE YEARS LATER...... The agent opens an envelope sent to his office.
 > Inside the envelope is a letter and a check for $50,000. The agent is
 > awe-struck, who would possibly send him $50,000? He reads the letter
 > enclosed...
 >
 > "Dear Sir, Five years ago, I came into your office wanting to become an
 > actor in Hollywood , you told me I needed to change my name.
 > Determined to make it with my God-given birth name, I refused. You 
told me
 > I would never make it in Hollywood with a name like Penis van Lesbian.
 > After I left your office, I thought about what you said. I decided 
you were
 > right. I had to change my name. I had too much pride to return to your
 > office, so I signed with another agent. I would never have made it 
without
 > changing my name, so the enclosed check is a token of my appreciation.
 >
 >
 > Thank you for your advice.

 > Sincerely,
