Eyes Wide Shut: Canine Theatre by Chris Kattan

Canine Theater: Eyes Wide Shut


Yes, that is my boy Bentley starring, albeit in a supporting role, in former SNL member Chris Kattan's Eyes Wide Shut episode of his Canine Theatre series.

Bentley plays one of the two Gate Keepers. His buddy Max plays the other one, but Max couldn't keep it together in front of the camera the night we filmed, so Bentley got the better camera time.

Is this just the beginning of a superstar acting career for my son? That Beverly Hills Chihuahua better watch out!

John McCain is proud of the people who attend his rallys, the bigots and racists, the people who claim not to believe in bigger and more government, but do believe that there should be laws dictating what women can and can't do to their bodies. People who think discrimination is just dandy, and that two men in love don't have the right to marry. People who think it's OK for others to file bankruptcy due to rising health care costs, and that the trickle down effect of Reaganomics actually works.

Proud to be an American!

Star Wars Bedding? Am I still 8?

As a kid back in England I had this set of Return of the Jedi bedding and curtains.

At some point (were they threadbare or was it just time to grow up) the sheets were eventually sewn by my mum into a slipcover for this oversized pillow I had. But when I moved to the States, sadly that pillow was left back on my old bed back home.

Cut to 2008, the release of the Clone Wars movies in theatres and the re-release of Star Wars bedding.





Still to come the missing decorative pillow.

Let California Ring

What a Feeling!

Happy belated birthday America!!!

Only 52 days to my citizenship test!!! Now how many Amendments are there again?

A Life Lesson!

During one of the commercial breaks for CBS' Sunday Morning today I inadvertently saw the teaser for tonight's Survivor finale. Having not yet watched Thursday night's episode I did not know that the women had made it to the "Final 4."

How surprised was I then when watching the episode to see Erik win the prized Immunity Idol, guaranteeing him a place in said Final 4. So what happened? You can watch here:



"Those damn girls."

You stupid boy!

The Avengers Initiative

For those who missed it (complete with fan acknowledgment)...

The Gremlins are Back!!!!!

And rumors abound that a new Gremlins movie may well be in the works! Hurrah!!!!

55/45 - A 10 Poin Victory!

Dear Matt,

Thanks to you, we won a critically important victory tonight in Pennsylvania. It's a giant step forward that will transform the landscape of the presidential race. And it couldn't have happened without your generous support.

There will be much more to do beginning tomorrow. But tonight, let's just celebrate the fact that you and I are part of a remarkable community of people tough enough, passionate enough, and determined enough to win big when everything is on the line.

Thanks so much for all you do.

Sincerely,

Hillary Rodham Clinton

"The Fight of You Life"

To the tune of Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes' classic 1997 Dirty Dancing theme, let me share with you A Clinton-Obama Love Song, from this morning's Day to Day on NPR.

Not George's Wars

But we might wish they were!

"As Ohio goes, so goes the Nation!"

Wins tonight in Rhode Island, Ohio and TEXAS!!!!!

And just like Jack, I'm rooting for Hillary.



Up next Wyoming, followed by Mississippi and then on to the next biggie, Pennsylvania on April 22nd!

Can Seeds Save The 4400?

The good folks over at Save The 4400 are urging disgruntled fans to send letters and said seeds over to Bonnie Hammer at the USA Network all to arrive on February 1, 2008 for maximum impact. Click on over to the site to sign the petition and see what else you can do to save this unceremoniously-dumped Emmy-nominated show.
