Look for open auditions. It's mostly based on a headshot or a full body shot or both.
Alternatively, you can just walk into a set and pretend you are supposed to be there. A lot of the time, there are too many people working on a movie for everyone to know whats going on. You could be grabbed by someone shooting a scene and told to do something or you could just ask them where you are supposed to be and they might just put you somewhere.
Probably won't get in the credits that way though.

Sometimes in chicago they post ads on craigslist
--------------------

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

You should just take unknown drugs for monetary profit, yet possible health decline, all in the name of science. You could be the next hero!

Most major universities will have them. You can get paid a good amount of money. Search around some university websites.

I worked for a guy that did a lot of drug studies through private testing firms, pay was as high as $2500/wk, he cant be using any sort of other drugs prior to the study and he'll be locked in a dorm during the study period

Yea for some reason I am more skeptical of the private firm drug runs than the university ones. That is a lot of money though.
