Gay's Anatomy
SERIOUSLY? I can't believe this . I had high hopes for Grey's Anatomy this season, but things just seem to be spiraling out of control over at ABC. This season was supposed to be the start of the character Callie Torres' exploration of her bisexuality, starting with the Cardio surgeon Dr. Erica Hahn.... but ABC JUST FIRED THAT ACTRESS!
To quote the show, "SERIOUSLY?" It's not just that, but another actress, who used to be on Alias, was being brought in to play a new intern that would be flirting with Callie. Now they are axing that entire story line as well.
THAT'S TWO CARDIO-THORASIC SURGEON's that they have fired! First Burke (Isaiah Washington) and now Erica Hahn.
Why did ABC exec's do this, I wonder? Hmm do you think some people were uncomfortable with where Callie and Erica's story line was going? Personally, I found it hilarious and somewhat heartwarming. PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH LESBIANS? REALLY?
Anyway, I find it all quite upsetting because Isaiah Washington was fired for calling T.R. Knight a gay slur. Why isn't the creator and producer of Grey's fighting for her actors or her story-lines?
Blurb: Rafe Spall
One of my favorite British actors, (he's in a tie with Dan Radcliffe), is Rafe Spall. Son of famous actor Timothy Spall (most recently Peter Pettigrew in the Harry Potter films and Nathaniel in Enchanted), I first saw Rafe in the Masterpiece Theater remake of A Room With A View (or so I thought). Rafe was actually a supporting character in one of my favorite movies, Hot Fuzz (if you haven't seen this, drop what you are doing and rent it now or illegally download it). He played one of the mustached detectives (the one on the far left). And he plays one of the frenzied fans in [Green Street] Hooligans, starring alongside Elijah Wood and Charlie Hunnam (also a big fan of both).
Recently though, in my research of London plays, I found that he is quite the stage actor. While I wanted to go visit my cousin in England and see WICKED, he saw it before I could. Then I wanted to see Equus (in which Daniel Radcliffe strips down) but now it's in New York. SO in researching to see if Rafe was still doing the Stage Play Hello and Goodbye, 
I found out a few tidbits about him that made me relate to him.
"No one who's overweight is happy with it. I had always been big and when you start that way as a child you only ever seem to get bigger. Inside there was always a slim me waiting to get out."
the interviewer asks: "Any vices?"
"I love beer and drink a lot of it. "
A lot of the buzz around the net is that he would make a good replacement Joker for Heath Ledger. Maybe...he has a few films and tv show/mini series coming up, IMDB him, and if you happen to catch something he's been in, let me know what you think. I have a feeling he's going to be big in the next couple of years.
Michael Crichton
The writer of Jurassic Park and one of my favorite books, Timeline, Michael Crichton, died today at age 66 after a private battle with cancer. Crichton, of course, is most famous for Jurassic Park and The Andromeda Strain books and movies. (Timeline was made into a film, but...alas...not as good as the book). I took this quote, attributed to him, from a Yahoo!NEWS article: "I have a lot of trouble with things that don't seem true to me," Crichton said..."I'm very uncomfortable just accepting. There's something in me that wants to pound the table and say, 'That's not true.'"
What an amazing personality. Read more here.
A new book might be released soon from his publisher. I only wish I could become half the writer he was.
My love hate relationship with S.F.
How can such an amazing city be so wrong sometimes? I LOVE SAN FRANCISCO! I love Powell Street and North Beach and Pier 39 and MOMA, etc, etc.
There were two things on the ballot in the city that were just ridiculous.
One---a prop that would legalize prostitution.
Two---a prop to name a water sewage plant after George W. Bush
seriously though? They didn't pass, of course.
If it wasn't so entertaining......I might actually be upset.
