Okay, where did this picture come from:



Why do these get missed? Or where are they all these years that suddenly they pop up? Is there a hidden stash of photos of David somewhere? Just curious...

Listening to the commentary on "The Bank", where they discuss using a stunt double to jump into the water behind the moving boat, makes me realize how difficult and dangerous an occupation acting can be. Just look at the requirements of some of David's past roles: attacked by savage dogs, dragged behind a horse, drenched with oil and set on fire, getting beaten up by Joseph Fiennes in 110-degree heat. Not exactly a walk in the park. You have to admire people who can ignore hazardous conditions and turn in a consistent, utterly believable performance.

My workday seems so boring and pedestrian by comparison. The biggest threats to my health are paper cuts and coffee scalds. The closest I've ever come to getting hurt on the job was last summer, when I broke my ribs at the company picnic while tubing behind the VP's motorboat. (He was deliberately trying to buck me off, and succeeded.) A few years ago, I came within a hair's breadth of getting arrested/severely assaulted while doing a routine site survey, but that's a different story. Let's just say I accidentally found some barrels of toxic waste that the town would have preferred to keep secret.

I'm antsy about the upcoming U.S. election too, PFaz. This is probably the most significant presidential contest since FDR/Wendell Wilkie in '36, if not Reconstruction. It's hard to believe there's any undecided voters left in the country.

I'm hungry but also irritated. Why must Wire Images torture usssss? Why must the pictures by thumbnail size so that we must squint. We just want to gaze on the beauty, we just want to see the brown suit. Why cant they give it to us bigger, even with a water mark. They torture ussss. Tricksyy false Wire Imagesssss. WE just want to look, we dont want to sell or anything, I mean geez oh pete.

On a side note, I cant wait until the election is over.

Heh heh...looks like you're "still Sharp(e)", PFaz.

Good point about remembering to bring your gigantic T-shirt along when staying over with strangers who might try to seduce you. Richard looks more like an Extra Medium to me. :)

I've been watching the final Futurama series on DVD (which bills itself as "Hee Haw, with lasers!"). BEST.SHOW.EVER. I keep having to rewind because I'm laughing too hard to hear the dialogue. Fry, with his red coiff and gee-whiz earnestness, could easily pass for a teenage David. How can you not love a show where, instead of Half & Half, people put Third & Third & Third in their coffee? Fox should never have cancelled it.

We've learned so much from Richard and Co. What about:

1. Never daydream and iron at the same time.

2. Walk very slowly when accompanying the elderly.

3. Men should always tell the "fart" jokes.

4. When sleeping in a strange house, always wear your XXXXXXXL t-shirt.

5. Louis Jordan played some extremely cool music.

6. Chickens are wonderful...

What kind of a mood is "loud"?

As PFaz aptly points out below, "A Little Bit of Soul" contains many, many nuggets of life-altering wisdom. Rabbis could spend centuries debating the ethics of keeping chickens in cages, and performing Richard Shorkinghorn midrash (I think that's the word for it, when you sit around and argue scripture).

Here's some stuff I learned from "Little Bit Of Soul":

1. The urge to eat onion rings off your fingers in private is normal and universal.

2. Try to arrange for murders to take place in the bathroom. Cleanup is a little easier on tile.

3. Don't drink an entire bottle of cognac in one sitting. (Two sittings should do it.)

4. Stephen Hawking is hilarious.

5. Careful when rolling around in cow pastures.

6. When playing Charades, stand there and make a squinty face so your teammates will know exactly what you're acting out.

How about...

Little Bit of Soul...

1. All you need to do to be the economy big wig for a country is to say that the sacrifices of the last 18 months have paid off. That and keep an index card with you at all times that has scribbles and little houses drawn on it.

2. Chickens can roam freely about your house and furniture without messing...(not true)

3. Nice guys dont always finish last.

4 Even as a nerdy geek with hornrim glasses and crooked teeth, David Wenham is incredibly sweet and adorable.

5. Love happens in the strangest places.

6. Tennis outfits are indeed proper for satanic rituals.

7. Kate with an Australian accent sounds like "Kite"

Things I've Learned From Watching David Wenham Movies

Better Than Sex

1. In Australia, all TV channels continuously broadcast footage of mating animals in primetime.

2. Lots of people fly halfway around the world for three days with no set plans, other than to attend a party and watch football on the telly.

3. Bedhead is a physical impossibility when your hair is already tousled and omni-directional. Use gel pre-emptively.

4. Wilted food may be recycled as art.

5. True love can survive an unpartitioned bathroom.

6. Love happens at messy and inconvenient times.

Lord Of The Rings

1. Show your quality.

2. If you've got an insane, verbally abusive pyromaniac dad, avoid being unconscious in his vicinity.

3. Always ask questions first before shooting.

4. Listen to the wizard. He is wise.

5. Love happens at messy and inconvenient times.

Van Helsing

1. Horse-drawn carriages spontaneously explode upon striking the bottom of a ravine.

2. If you're on the verge of taking Holy Orders, cram in as much swearing and womanizing as possible before it's too late.

3. Never be the first to stick your hand in a viscous material.

4. If it smells like wet dog, chances are it's a wet dog. Though it may not be the type of wet dog you envision.

The Bank

1. Never keep old school textbooks lying around, because someday you might have a one-night stand and she might find the textbook and use it to unlock the secret of your entire life.

2. Faxes should be sent face up so that the audience can read them. Even though this will result in blank pages at the other end. (thanks, Tezz!)

3. Serious number-crunching software always has enough spare front-end processing power to draw pretty fractals and graphs.

4. Linen tablecloths are like Post-It Notes. Restaurants provide them free of charge for that very purpose. Otherwise that white surface area just goes to waste. Scribble away!

5. You're probably better off keeping your money under the mattress.


I'll add on to this list as I think of more...
