I saw it was Patton's birthday the other day (which he shares with Mike Patton) and looked for the clip where his mother is yelling at him about normal people want marriage, family, children. Patton slams his hands and screams "I DON'T WANT IT!" I think of that whenever I get the when-are-you-going-to-settle-down from

Do you make the Claire Danes ugly-cry face?

I dunno, it was pretty funny when John Travolta throws meat at Scott Glenn.

Because SEX

I hated her damn big purse. And I never got why they used her full first and last name every time they mentioned her, and Patty would call her "that Hallie Lowenthal person."

He collects autographs, mostly from celebs but serial killers too. He gets a Christmas card every year from Charles Manson. This is probably for some kind of nest egg investment, but partly for kicks.

She was such a little vixen.

I just found on VHS the episode that Quentin Tarantino directed. When Chloe is giving birth and wanting her cassette of "Blackbird" and Susan is digging through all these tapes for it, cracks me up.
I also remember vividly Bradley Whitford pleading "Why can't you deliver this baby?!", because it was so emotional and

Put to great use in "Urban Cowboy," as Sissy sits smoking and contemplating her bad choices. Getting smacked around by Scott Glenn wasn't all it was cracked up to be, eh? The crowd at Gilly's went wild!

Here in Youngstown, we occasionally get the trickle-down effect from Cleveland. With Cloud Nothings, it didn't involve toxic river water, so goody. Glad I got to see them.

A friend of mine just got a signed headshot in the mail from Aaron Eckhart today. He still responds to fan requests - what a nice dude.

"Why are you LIKE this?"
"Like what?"
"Like how you ARE!!!"

"NERDS PUMMELED IN FOOTBALL MELEE"

They're lucky, it could have been with sexy results.

The ball is turning into a fat baaaald guy! Lots of zany Simpsons football stuff. What's the divide between far-fetched and zany?

In Youngstown, Ohio, the only gods are football, pizza and blue-collar jobs that are never coming back.

This episode hit home with me, who not only was never baptized but never went to Sunday school. I would have won fewer stars than Maggie did in Bombardment of Bible Questions. I spent the night at a friend's whose parents were religious and they were aghast when I started my mac and cheese before they said grace. The

But here in Warren, Ohio, we will always have Dave Grohl Alley.

I always loved the part where MIB looks at the monkey and goes "I'm Barry Lutz!" like the monkey watches TV. The screencap captures perfectly the talk show host who is the center of his own universe.
Also Michael Patrick Jann is the best.

It's always cool to see hometown kids make good. The town I was born in has an alley behind the Burger King named after Dave Grohl.
