casting disaster
IMDB lists the cast for Confederacy of Dunces as having Will Ferrell playing Ignacious. Talk about a movie fucked up before the cameras roll!
The fact that Ferrell did a deranged cheerleader on SNL, and a still-frat-crazy man in Old School, does not mean he could play the multi-layered Ignacious. No sir. Translated for those who haven't read the book: Will Ferrell could play Fringe sure, but would you hire him for the Paigow role? John Goodman was mentioned a few years ago, and I think he would be a much better choice. |

The proof will be in her reaction to the news that I've been on the Atkins Diet, so I've lost weight and given up caffeine. I would like the court reporter to notate the above responses for when Paigow claims she invented "sell-by date" in two years on the New, New, New, New, New Fashion Board. Of course, she'll later broaden the meaning of the word "invent" to encompass anytime a thought first occurs to her (or one of her personalities). I kid because you love, Jack Manfred |

Halloween Poll
In honor of Halloween, I offer this POLL: Have you ever been in a place that was 'known' or reputed to be haunted? For purposes of this poll, you don't need actually to believe it was haunted, but you should tell the story as if you do.
My answer: Close friends live in house built in the 1920s. Their bedroom has a ghostly presence; the usual bumps, squeaks and scraping sounds. Several times, the picture hanging over their bed has shifted suddenly in the middle of the night --- it wants to be crooked. One night, my friend Kathleen was reading in bed. Suddenly, the cord to the venetian blinds began swinging rhythmically, like a pendulum. There was not a breath of moving air in the room, but it swang back and forth for a full minute, in perfect rhythm, and then stopped dead vertical. It hasn't happened again since. Shortly after they moved in, Lydia, their three year old daughter, began waking up in the night and wandering the house in a half-awake state. If anyone in the house is awake, she'll loom in doorway to the occupied room, watching silently, standing in any nearby darkness. But if anyone in the room turns and actually makes eye contact with her, she'll burst into tears. I've seen this happen myself --- at a dinner party, Lydia had been put to bed and two hours later we were having nightcaps in the living room. I thought I saw a figure in the shadows of the staircase, so I peered into the gloom. I saw the blank look on her face before she wailed --- not a frightened cry, but a cry of loneliness, perhaps. When she wakes in the morning, she doesn't remember anything after being put to bed. |

As the hour grew late, my mother put me to bed upstairs while she continued her evening. When she went to check on me, she saw an old woman sitting at the foot of my bed, watching me sleep. The woman got up and walked past her down the hall. Rather than move me, my mother checked that everything was okay and left me there sleeping until it was time to go home. |
