Vancouver.
Even lion tamers learn by trial and error.
Guess who I saw today? Amy Adams. She played the awkward but beautiful nurse that fell in love with Leonardo DiCaprio in Catch Me If You Can. She was also oscar nominated this year for her performance in Junebug. She's luminous. And I mean seriously great. I'm happy she chose acting as a profession.
I didn't say hi.
Guess who I saw today? Owen Wilson. He came out of a bookstore on Robson that I was passing on my way home. That nose is unmistakeable. I've always enjoyed the earnest loveability of his comedic characters. He plays for laughs but he plays his characters like they're real people. He's one of my favourite comedic actors.
I didn't say hi.
I'm watching a documentary right now called Fast, Cheap and Out of Control. It's about four eccentric but passionate people. One person is a robot scientist who is trying to make robots that walk around by themselves. The archive footage of his earlier projects is incredible. One person is a biologist who specializes in naked mole rats. His passion is spectacular to behold. Naked mole rats are as close as a mammal has become to being a cold blooded creature. One person is a lion tamer. The old circus footage is great. The last guy is a gardener who specializes in topiary sculptures. His creatures are great. He worked for a long time for one old woman who never married. She said to him that she loved a man once but it didn't work out so she chose to never marry.
I'm saying hi to all of them.

Okay that last one isn't very dark for you. It is for me, though. I can still taste that damn drink. That was a 24 hour shoot. I think I drank a case of that stuff.
