Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Most commercials don't bother me (some even amuse me), other than Car, diaper, and feminine hygiene ads. Cause you know, Being a Girl doesn't always Rock.

I can't even.

Unfortunately they were not Tim's donuts so there was no toffee.

This just seems wrong somehow.

The advertisers are making men pay for all those years of beer commercials with the constant running of the viagra/cialis ads. Is Viagra the official sponsor of the Olympic spirit "Higher, Faster, Stronger" now?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Dear GOD!

What is your boss, an American ?

They were Robin's Donuts which has no American stores so I think she was just cheap and buying us substandard baked goods!

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with meaning? What does that mean?

Have you talked to your friend yet, Dani? If the rumor's true, people need to go and take pictures!

I believe vampires are the world's greatest golfers

Pouring rain here right now, so it's not a good day for stalking.

The only current shoot my friend knows of is a CBS disaster MOTW with Randy Quaid & Brian Dennehy. [Yes, we get the big stars here.] Doesn't seem like the kind of project Caroline would be in, though...

If he hears anything else he's going to call me.


JohnSweden - Aug 26, 2004 6:10:40 am PDT #6575 of 6793
I can't even.

Don't tell me, Brian Dennehy is playing a crusty old ex-cop with a chip on his shoulder, who actually has a heart of gold. Unless he's still a cop then he's corrupt, but full of regret.

(I think he's great, but typecast much?)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This is a good site for checking on filming locations.

Thanks for the link, ita - that site had the info I was looking for.

Caroline Dhavernas, of the late, lamented Fox series Wonderfalls, and Craig Ferguson of the still-going (and lamented) sitcom The Drew Carey Show are among the announced cast of Gary Yates's upcoming film The Niagara Motel, which is scheduled to start production in town Aug. 30.

...

The film, a Canadian/U.K. co-production with Muse Entertainment, Indian Grove Productions and Buffalo Gal Pictures, is scripted by playwright George F. Walker and Dani Romain. It was adapted from Suburban Motel, a cycle of six plays set in the same motel room.

[Huh. The source of the article is the local paper. Doh! I obviously missed the blurb in question and so did my friend Brad. How embarassing.]
