Did anyone watch BONES last night? I missed the credits, so was the "Not!Girls Gone Wild" guy Alex Winter, and who played Booth's shrink? Because he sounded and looked a little like Stephen Fry, but he was quite a bit heavier than how I remember Fry.
The Crying of Natter 49
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Jessica, can I have your share of the hazelnuts? You can have my share of the Brazil nuts in return.
I'm sorry yours are not so well behaved, Lee.
Me too, though it means I get a second jammies day, so it's not all bad.
Frank, you're right on both counts.
Yes, the shrink was Stephen Fry.
Isn't he tall? I mean, I knew he was tall -- but man so much taller than DB! Also -- as I've said elsewhere -- who would have dreamed we'd ever see scenes with DB and Stephen Fry ?
Frank, you're right on both counts.
Really? BONES can get Fry but HOUSE can't? Pouts
Bones: I've never seen DB have to look up at anybody before. So damned cool, seeing Fry. Now he needs to wander over to House!
The Girls Gone Wild story line was dumb, to my mind. And I do hope Sully doesn't hang around long.
Huh.
I just discovered that the pecan farm in my hometown? Expanded into Australia. And is a major industry player there. And apparently here, too. Somehow, I didn't know that .
I am pro-jammies, as always.
Tivo says Stephen Fry and Alex Winter were both in Bones last night, Frank. I haven't watched it yet, so I don't know which characters were who.
Interesting bit in the Times about female basketball players (in college): [link]
It's actually about the women's weights, and how we publicize male athletes' weights all the time but tend not to for women, but mostly I was focussed on the part where there are so many women who are like 6'7", 6'9"! When I was in college, in the Kara Wolters/Rebecca Lobo era, 6'6" was considered rare. Where are all these tall people appearing from! Tallonia, clearly!
(Also, I think the whole weighing thing is a little bit nonsense, because, looking at pro players' weights, I can tell you right now that 80% of baseball players completely lie about their weight. For a while, the question on the Red Sox' data was, Which one of these men who claims he weighs 230 is lying the most?)
