Then get Skype for March through October, for God’s sake!!!! Tell your folks they’ll have to pack up and come see you between March and October.

My parents live just outside Baltimore and every time I visit I see a lot of cars with those orange Os bumper stickers – there’s a healthy amount of people there that probably want the same thing.

Oddly enough, every single time I go down there if the Phillies are playing that day – they lose, without fail almost 20 times in a row. NLCS game 6 last year included, so sorry about that Philly.

Art Carney was one of the greats — Harry and Tonto, one of my favorite films of all time, made shortly before he died. A beautiful visual poem about aging, which cat lovers enjoy too.

Huh, wrong Ed Norton? Whaddya mean?

I’m pretty sure that was just a wardrobe choice between Norton and the costume designer…put a little something personal in the character’s background.

Yeah, that’s right…good call. I wonder if that was one of those “control” things that Craig was talking about.

Yeah, Brando and DeNiro surely mail it in. But Norton is so good in it that he carries the show, which is saying so much considering those two are in it. He alone makes it worth watching the show.

And, hey, if you notice, Norton is wearing an O’s cap at the end of the movie.

Brando is also terrible in that movie and makes it almost impossible to watch. And DeNiro kind of mails it in himself.

I agree with you its underrated. Its generally regarded as so horrible all copies should be burned. Its more of a “TBS would evaluate and reject for a 2am time filler” quality movie.

And both Norton and Brando were together in the movie The Score, a highly underrated movie with DeNiro as well. One of Dennis Miller lines, referring to Brando in The Score…something like “Marlon Brando starred in The Score beating out a whale to secure the role…” Man is Brando fat in that movie.

Ed Norton and I both now have something in common. Who knew?
