The things you learn.

1. Seeing that there was a new edition of Mark "The Other Guy Who Worked on Twin Peaks" Frost's novel The List of Seven (a book that I read thanks to morenasangre and farren, and that all of you need to read, especially those of you who are fans of historical horror and/or Sherlock Holmes), I decided to search Amazon to see if he'd published anything other than TLOS and its mediocre sequel. Amazon led me to The Greatest Game Ever Played: Harry Vardon, Francis Ouimet, and the Birth of Modern Golf. I assumed, naturally, that it was just Amazon confusing authors with common names, but the Publisher's Weekly review makes it clear that it's the same man.

That's a guy with diverse interests and talents.

2. While browsing around IMDB, I clicked off of Alex Borstein's Family Guy info and found out that not only was she originally cast as Sookie on Gilmore GIrls (and she's married to Jackson in real life!), but she used to be a staff writer for Pinky and the Brain and for one of my favorite shows that no one else remembers, Histeria!. Nifty!

3. There is a music video for the upcoming film version of Rent's "Seasons of Love." I suspect that I know the first link my wife will be clicking on when she gets home. :-)

4. There's also a teaser trailer for Saw 2.

5. A 2005 Ford Focus? A car thief's worst nightmare. deyaniera will explain why, eventually. :-)

I loved Histeria! One of my favourite bits they did was the Lewis and Clark expedition. Lewis, of course, sounded like Jerry Lewis. (These were the same people who did Animaniacs) And Clark was Clark Kent, as drawn in the WB's Superman cartoon.
