I think penske read the same interview.
I just like Sutherland. He plays himself in most roles, and I happen to like his salty, kind-of-depressed air. This goes a long way to explaining why I find him so consistently entertaining regardless of the vehicle. I guess I like most actors for this reason. Except Pacino. He plays himself too well.

That's my impression of George Clooney: here's a movie showing what would happen if George Clooney were a bank robber! Or counsel in a law firm! Or a bank robb...I mean, a cat burglar!

Re: The thread where Spring has sprung, and Penske has risen from the law. Word!

AON, has anyone talked about the Black Keys? I found them through Pandora. I've become a fan through Pandora.

Apparently you are tragically un-hip if you are not into the Black Keys, or so I was advised by NineteenthYearSlave just the other day. I am glad you have escaped my fate.

She says she's skinny now. I think you might have to meet her again, so that you can rate her for our amusement.

You should spend more time listening to Pandora. I just got lucky.

I bet you find this hard to believe, but I think everyone here thinks you're still fat, stupid and shallow.

Dude, that's the difference between an actor and a movie star. Here's a movie showing what would happen if Bogart were a riverboat captain! Or a bar owner! Or a gumshoe! Or a riverbo-- I mean, sea captain!
