Because Chico needed the money

When a performer takes a job solely for the money.

Inspired by Gilbert Gottfried's impression of an old Groucho Marx where he explains why the Marx Brothers took jobs on terrible projects late in their career.
"Why would Orson Wellles agree to be in that animated Transformers movie?"

Needlenose

A person whose methodical, over-disciplined ways continually irritate neighbors and co-workers by this person insistance of the same attention to detail and order from others. A person who is so consumed by the repetitiveness of his work that he he takes things too seriously and sucks the life out of the laughter and fun around him. A person so detailed, he misses the big picture.
Mr. Doe, a Needlenose, wrote a bullet-pointed list about a bullet pointed list and proceeded to instruct someone to put out a fire by first telling the person to identify the temperature in the room compared to the adjoining room, divided by the height of the flame minus the number of flames...and once identified, with your left hand, grab a bucket, and toss 1,233 scoops of water with a coffee scoop. Proceed to pour onto open flame.

needlepoint

LSD of the highest quality. 98% pure. Comparable to pharmaceutical LSD. Made by washing (purifying) fluff (95% LSD). Only found in crystal form and even then only in small quanities. Not something you could get of your average deadhead/hippy. Given the current climate, it's quite possible that its no longer being produced.
Needlepoint was the pride and joy of Haight St.
