16 hours - The Search for Johnny Depp 1:00 tp 6:00

OK - where was I before real life interfered.

OH yea - Pledge Drive - make sure you help me out by going over to The Isthmus Daily Page and reading (or pretend to read) my new article. Our Man In Columbus . However, I must tell you I lied. I really did not get Polar Bear food in my lap when you clicked the little red recommend. It was Beet Pudding and I am renegotiating (along with finding new clothing). Mixed up in the language obviously.

That was plagiarized from my last blog and I take full credit for both!

1:00pm

I believe I'm back at Base camp (things are a little fuzzy). Johnny Depp rode off into the . . sunset (so to speak) and we are waiting for his return. Meanwhile unbeknown to us everybody is on lunch break. We stand there shivering ready for anything.

It is at this point where things slow down. Nothing is happening and no one is to be found anywhere. We stand and stand and stand, the crowd grows larger. People are screaming at anything that moves out of boredom.

All I can do is try to put into words SOMETHING for The Isthmus and I am at a loss. Nothing has happened. I want to contact Clark Kent and tell him "I have nothing".

5:45pm

Yea - it's been a long time. There is a gap in security (which was fixed today) and we can see the exit to Johnny Depps trailer that no one else knows about.

It's been a long long long time but when Jerry the body guard opens the door to the magic SUV we know we are gold for a photo op.


I was like a machine gunner paparazzi

  4. Rod... I am sorry, I didnt save all the websites. But have seen them on JohnnyDeppReads (I believe you know them! LOL) some gal's blog ( she did give you credit for the pic) a couple of news sites (most of which gave you credit) and on MySpace.... a member who calls himself Johnny ( but states that he isnt ) posted the pics as a bulletin. I noted on the bulletin that you should get credit for your pic and gave your name and the url for your blog (oh, hope that was ok to do) so anyone else reading the bulletin would know who took the pic!

    Havent seen or heard too much about what went on today as far as filming goes.... anyone have anything?

  5. Drove down from Stevens Point again and hung around a bit today with my girlfriend. Sat outside basecamp for awhile...then when depp left after lunch went up and saw them filming some get away scene with some shooting which was pretty cool. got pretty close compared to the major crowd and the car with depp hanging off the side came right infront of us. could not tell who else was hanging off the other side as they had there back to us.
