Steve Zissou and David Bowie

watching the DVD.  One of the Team Zissou guys, a black actor named Seu Jorge sings all these Bowie songs in French on an acoustic guitar throughout the film.  Kind of funny.  Odd film.  No coincidence the director also did Rushmore, Tenenbaums, etc.

[Martha says maybe it's Portugese, I don't know]

I believe it was Portugese.  "Odd" is a good word -- I LOVED Tenenbaums, so Zissou was a bit of a letdown for me.

Unrelated, but Geoff we know you loved the TV show Due South, so FYI: next Sunday on the Sundance Channel (if you have it on your cable), a new Canadian show called Slings & Arrows starring DS's Mountie, Paul Gross (as well as Mark McKinney of Kids in the Hall). It's about a wacky small-town Shakespeare company.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

We don't get Sundance, and I tend to tune in on any Due South related content.  I could never watch 'Providence' without thinking of Melina Kanakaredes as Victoria, a pivotal role in Due South.  Thanks for thinking of me.

http://www.turkishpress.com/nw.asp?s=u&i=050808192721.pndtesbz&t=Meryl%20Streep,%20Gwyneth%20Paltrow,%20Annette%20Bening%20to%20star%20in%20Watergate%20movie


god, the picture alone has me spitting milk out of...nevermind. see, i'm eating some kozy shack, and i just reread the posts on the previous page about suzanne vega and phil spector, and...nevermind.

damn. the streep is hot. the streep playing martha mitchell will be uberhot. i don't even care if she's paying alongside pal(e)trow. and i don't normally care for annette, either, but she's an sfsu alum, so, raise the roof, i guess.

yippee! new streep for me! and everyone!

Ben*ing. Benning is a fort in Georgia.

Just keeping my hand in, I'm just sayin'...

Boy, we've been chatty today. Geoff, any way of seeing how many posts have been made in a given period of time?

well, if anyone wants to poke around phpbb.org to find out how, let me know, but the back office has just a total usage kind of thing:

Number of posts:   15638   Posts per day:   76.79

If I had looked yesterday, we could infer, but yes, I wondered if we're all pretty unhappy with our day jobs on some level to seek this much escape!

I think that's pretty much a given. An uber-given, in fact. :wink:
