Lost and lots of rumors flying around about Friday. I have people telling me both ways. I know there is still a farm house scene that has not been shot and a "dust bowl" scene and a few others but . . . . . things change.
Hereonotthere said no way and I tend to trust him even though he has been out of the loop several times, still, he is the most official person to say anything so far.
All I do know is that IF they do come here there will be no need for extras and so forth.
----------------------------------------------
Speaking of rain and what is approaching. We could actually use a little. My birch trees are feeling a little stressed. However - some are saying 3 inches in the next few days. Normally 1 inch per week is what you need for healthy gardens and trees.
Here is a map that was compiled with the total rain fall June1 through 15th. I participated in this study.
----------------------------------------------------------
DJ was having a problem with Yahoo the other night with AVAST (the BEST anti virus software out there AND it's free). She kept getting a warning about the VBS:malware-gen virus.
Seems to be a false positive. i think only users of AVAST are getting it. When I installed the newer version of Firefox (way faster the Firefox 2) it went away.
ANYWAY - if you are tired of paying for anti virus - you should really get AVAST - it's free and better then Norton or the other one.
Of course Mac user will laugh because their machines don't need anti virus. . . yet. Funny - there are now contests to create viruses for Mac's because their users are becoming arrogant and bragging that they have no problems.
-----------------------------------------------
If you want to see what kind of friends I have check out Adubys blog - here is a teaser - ""Did you just slap me???"." "This is where I'm grateful for Showtime Boxing on the Nintendo Wii where I've honed my boxing skills".
And all this action after he hits a double eagle at Door Creek.
Gotta run
Rod
But we love our Mac's :)
ReplyDeleteThat contest was called off two years ago.
ReplyDeleteTo repost from yesterday's
ReplyDeleteLips~ Thanks!!! Anything for the LA shoot?
AVAST? hmmmm.... thanks Rod, will check into that one....
I've been using Avast for the past two years with no problems....other than the random "freak out" moment when I have my speakers turned on and I hear that guy's voice say "virus database has been updated"....but lately everyone has been talking up AVG's software.
ReplyDeleteI put it on the computers I'm rehabbing for the Boys and Girls Club...we'll see.
BTW...i still have some money for the Auditorium....how/when am I going to get that to you?
I like Avast--used it for a long time until a friend shared his Avira with me. ;) Another good one that is reasonably priced is ESET. It is my favorite, really, but free is gooder!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not finding the new Firefox to be faster. :(
dj-the centipede is still in his house. hehe
I like my mac :P
ReplyDeleteMacs. Pssh.
ReplyDeleteGo Linux. Then you really don't need anti-virus software. Nor do you ever have to pay for software again. :D
Mac's are great....but no more secure than a PC... they do have a better spokesperson tho!
ReplyDeleteSuZ--Lets hope he stays where he BELONGS!!! HA
ReplyDeleteI don't know a whole lot about these computer thingys. I just know that stuff happens when I push da pretty buttons! :P
Macs rule!! LMAO
ReplyDeleteDj...are you sure you're talking about computers...and not Rod?
ReplyDeleteOr are Rod's buttons not as pretty as those on the computer?
we don't care about computers!
ReplyDeletewhere is basecamp??????
I've had AVG Free for the longest time; but it is now being discontinued (don't know if they will be offering another free version or only paid). I found it to be better than Norton! I accepted an offer to try Stamps.com just to get a free year of the AVG 8.0 Anti-virus which is normally a paid for program, but haven't been able to get it to completely install!! I thought maybe it was because the AVG 7.5 Free Version is still on my computer; but when I try to uninstall that, it says that uninstall is not possible because AVG 7.5 is not installed????????
ReplyDeleteThat's really strange, since it updates and scans for viruses daily!! And it's still showing up in my programs!AAAARRGGHHHHHHHH!!!
Rod, did you get the copy of the article of the Amtrack Station painting party that I sent yesterday??
ReplyDeleteOsh....no one but stalkers would care where basecamp is....and it seems all the stalkers are on a field trip today.....so "Sorry...can't help you!"
ReplyDeleteBut if I hear anything...I'll call Evan.
are you talking to yourself again GheyPee?
ReplyDeleteIsn't Osh down in Chi-town?? Is J^P experiencing multiple personalities right before our eyes???
ReplyDeleteAre you crawling around on your hands and knees looking for PE junk again Osh?
ReplyDeleteHow's the weather down there?
JP: I try to avoid pushing Rod's buttons at ALL COSTS! He's a real bad ass! :)
ReplyDeletebastages! all of you!
ReplyDeletedon't worry J^P, you will get your autograph! JD loves that picture so much, he already asked me if he could have 5 more copies! So take that!
*brushes knees off, flips hair, staightens shirt and flounces off*
Osh: Thanks!!!! You're the bestest!
ReplyDeleteCould you ask him to sign a copy of the Enquirer too please?
Thanks in advance!!!!
How hot is it down therrrrr?
Cuz it's toasty in Oshkosh!
Rachel: someone is experiencing multiple personalities.....but sadly it's not me. :(
DJ: I'll trust your judgement in regards to that. Good call!
Kankakee today:

ReplyDeleteI hate to say it but she was right about today.....
ReplyDeletemet two great people last night
Submitted by kimbav on June 25, 2008 - 8:29am.
what a great night! i had the pleasure of meeting aspiring actress and her two beautiful daughters! (aspiring if you are reading this PM me!) AND JOHNNY! We had a blast! When i was leaving the city trucks were parking down by clark and lasalle (across the street from Eugenie Terrace) the scoop i got was chicago today, "kankakee tommorrow" and wisconsin friday and that’s it…we all know the schedule changes so if i learn more i will post. Good luck everyone!
ROD :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for everything!
(for the contact you gave me) :)
(My e-mail system broke down, so I lost your adress and couldn't write you another way)
best wishes from Germany
Julie :)
There it is again "Wisconsin Friday"
ReplyDeleteThat's the same post you put in your blog yesterday, Rod. They were just stating that the person was right about Kankakee.
ReplyDeleteWith both HNT & Lips Are Sealed saying NO to Wisconsin, I think it's a safe bet they're not coming. They filmed at an old farmhouse in Kankakee today.
I am reading tomorrows call sheet..
ReplyDeleteNO Wisconsin!
NO Wisconsin!
NO Wisconsin!
NO Wisconsin!
actually opposite direction
lips sealed ++++++++++++++++
Does this mean Indiana perhaps?
ReplyDeleteNO Wisconsin!
ReplyDeleteNO Wisconsin!
NO Wisconsin!
NO Wisconsin!
hmmmm - not sure what that really means!
:-)
lips - I wish I know what sort of sheet "I" had. The entire schedule with scenes and numbers for actors.
you can find them in all the Extra's brief cases. It was right on until Little Bo.
Sorry if this is posted already, no time to read the blog right now... at work... anyway... rumors right now is filming today is in St Anne... about 12 miles from where we heard in Kanakee (sp?) Base Camp is at the local high school and scenes being shot are at an abandoned farmhouse. I think we are still heading down but it's unclear right now if JD is done for the day or not....
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon:
ReplyDeleteI've posted this statement before, but here again, Johnny and I just weren't meant to meet:(
Drove to Chicago Tuesday (from Madison), heading to Jefferson Park. Had never been to that neighborhood, but was easy to find. Sign for base camp was right on the main drag, along with a sign for the PE Shuttle. No one was around base camp, so drove around for awhile until I found Gale St., which is where the post on Hollywoodchicago pointed me.
Strange shoot, as Gale St. was an extremely busy short street - bus route. No barricades, either. VERY noisy, what with constant traffic and jets directly overhead. Spoke with a resident who said this building being used for shoot had been the old police station, and had a jail that hadn't been used for years. Truck with huge pipes pumping air conditioning inside. No other PE "fans" hanging around, that I noted. Lots of locals, asking ME what was going on! Told 'em what I knew.
Spent most of my time jawing with a couple of crew members from Chicago, who handed out a bit of info. This was to be an interior shoot with Marion. Ladies prison (or jail). Mann was there, but didn't see either the actress or director. Quite a few female extras, which I assume were other inmates.
The crew members weren't exactly enamored with Mann. In fact, were a bit brutal! Won't state exactly what was said, but let's just say it has to do with his perfectionist nature. One of the guys was with a special effects crew and felt that Mann took too many chances with the gun shots. Like, blasts going off too close to actors!
Also mentioned the night shoot downtown was a closed set. Johnny and Marion in the bathroom. Hmmmmm. Said they didn't know where the shoot was (they're actually with the 2nd unit, but since Mann was directing they'd taken base camp to Jefferson Park). I'd read a post earlier in the day that it would be around Lincoln and Wells.
Found Lincoln and Wells FINALLY around 8:00 pm. 3 Universal trucks were unloading furniture. No one else around, so I decided to head out. Being night blind, the drive back home would be a challenge.
Wish I'd known that some of you guys were there and I'd have stayed. I'd even brought my Jack Sparrow doll along for Mr. Depp to sign. Ah well.
Jack Sparrow is a nice addition to my doll collection. Don't go for out of the ordinary dolls, and he isn't! If you want to see photos, email me @ jmsylvester@peoplepc.com. There are also Elizabeth Swann and Will Turner dolls, and the details are amazing. Were created by Robert Tonner, a well known fashion doll sculpter in the doll world. Demi Moore is a big fan of his.
Will keep checking in on this Friday shoot deal. Only way I'm driving anywhere else is if they show up in Columbus.
Have a nice, yet muggy day!
Jane
The crew is tired I'm sure. I hope that no one gets in trouble for speaking poorly of MM if it was just out of being exhausted.
ReplyDeleteJane nice write up..
ReplyDeleteSorry you missed him again...
Sure wish it was confirmed that they won't be here...
Anyway!!!
Is tomorrow night a Kurth Night?
I need to know , Cableman can bring me Cheese Curds.

LMAO! Hope our Wisconsin crew wasn't inundated with crowds and crowds! It would be great for Osh to give JD the book she made about Evan...And to get your autograph, of course, J^P!

This was about an hour ago....
JMB Commercial:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpP1QUYG3bU
It worked!!!!! HAHAHA
ReplyDeleteTeam WI ...Last update was:
ReplyDelete"Still waiting. About 250 people here and they are loud." That was 6:39pm Cali time.....
Ok Jenny.... PLEASE share how you did that!!!! I want hot links!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm learning html right now at work, so I thought I'd try it out here. You have to code your link. It won't let me type it on here though, because it thinks I'm trying to code something
ReplyDeleteOMG! I NEVER KNEW THAT WAS HIM!!!
ReplyDeletehahahahaha, he's so funny!
Thanks to Cranky Anonoymous for finding that link. Whoo hoo!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've seen that commercial a ton of times and never noticed. Then Michelle showed me the commercial on You Tube Tuesday and I was like oh my god! It's JMB!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenny!! That is so cool! I think I've seen that one too, but never noticed...it was JMB!
ReplyDeleteJenny if you bracket it will it let you show the code?
ReplyDeleteI did not know that was JMB!!!! That is a trip!!!!
I'll survive if i don't get an autograph..i wonder if the mosquitos are as bad there as they are here?
ReplyDeleteThey are down right ravenous tonight...haven't felt them this bad in years.
Go team WI!!! Battling fangirls and fighting off malaria...all in the name of JD!
Oh yeah Osh...don't forget to ask JD for his pants...when he's done with them of course.
(link name)
ReplyDeleteNope....
ReplyDeletewhen I try to type the code to show you it thinks I'm trying to link something :P
ReplyDelete[linkname]
JMB was on the Milwaukee news tonight I guess. I'll find out more in a bit...
ReplyDeleteMichelle got the link to the JMB from Cranky ... awesome find!!
ReplyDeletePut one of these "<" then put "a" space "href" = then put your link in quotes"" then put ">" then type your link not in quotes then put "<" "/" "a" ">" But with no quotes.
ReplyDeleteIs that confusing? The only time you put quotes in the whole code is the first time you type the link.
ReplyDelete[a href="link"]link name[/a]
ReplyDeleteJust use these symbols < > instead of the brackets

UPDATE::::
ReplyDeleteTEAM WI has made contact!!!!! JD was there, too many people for autographs!!!
YEAH TEAM WI!!!!
WOOHOO!!!!! Congrats ladies!! Go team WI!!!!
ReplyDeletesorry I'm a little tired and am going crazy with the "!"
Seeing that I am the first one home from our group I'm passing on a (brief) account of the days events. There had been TONS of rumors going on about the day. Johnny was supposedly coming out and signing around 2 pm, but to the best of my knowledge this never happened. A bunch of us weren't sure if he would then be wrapped, but unwilling to be deterred we headed down as soon as all of us could. Someone on the crew told me that getting there around 6 would still be ok, and I took his word for it.
ReplyDeleteThe scene being filmed was in fact the farmhouse scene. The road was blocked off more then a half mile away and from what I gathered nothing could be seen.
When I finally arrived at basecamp (6 ish) the place was mobbed. The town of St. Anne has a population of 1300 and I feel fairly confident that a large percentage of the teenage population was there.
Meeting up with all of you from WI, it was a great to finally put a face to a blogname. I was able to see Osh's book, and she did a fabulous job! She was able to give it to Jerry and I am confident it will be put into the right hands.
With a crowd so large, we weren't sure what exactly was going to happen. There was no surprise when Jerry came out saying no autographs, no pictures. According to one person he also said no hugs... When Johnny did come out around 10:15, I was thankful the crowd was not screaming. There had been many of such instances earlier. Although it wasn't a nice quiet 15-20 person meet and greet some of us had been spoiled with lately, Johnny was very gracious and went around shaking as many possible hands as possible. With a last hurrah, he hung off the door from the expedition, waved to the crowd (most likely said a few words... thank you maybe... I couldn't hear), blew a kiss, and was off for the night.
Home Safe...
ReplyDeleteLeft LawGirl at the 90/94 split off and jsut sent Blaze, Osh and Movie Sar Wife North from here.
HOpefully they will chime in as they get home...
Great time! As Marcella has givien a bit of an update, I'll save mine for my blog a bit later.
Thanks to all those who texted us updates along the way = )
HUGE crowd tonight!
I estimate close to 1500 people there at meet and greet (maybe more) It was like at Oshkosh on that hot day only more maybe...
ReplyDeleteMade it home-it was great meeting Osh, Evan, MSW, great seeing Vic & Shakes again!
ReplyDeleteOh, and of course it was great meeting Marcella, Deborah, Becky, and all others from WI!
ReplyDeletePS-we busted herenothere!
I am home from my DEPP ENCOUNTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYES--I met him. Happy dreams for the next two hours and then off to work a 10 hour shift. Yes--I'm officially crazy!
Vicky home safe!
ReplyDeleteSo ... who is herenotthere
ReplyDeleteLet me be the first on the blog to wish JMB a Happy and healthy birthday!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN MICHAEL BOLGER!!!
I just freaking got home. It is 7am.
ReplyDeleteFIN

ReplyDelete****Happy Birthday!!!!****

Shakes~ Can't wait to read more...
Osh~ OMG!!! 7:00am?????
You have to be tried to say the least...
Busting herenothere!!!! Can't wait to hear all about that one!
MSW~Hope your Dreams are the Best Ever!!!!!
~robbi
I might have had problems finding my way home from Madison, which may or may not have involved me calling my husband in tears
ReplyDeletewhich may or may not have involved me wondering out loud why I was the only parent that took Evan places...more tears...
but it has ended with me typing this with Dillinger the Kitten under my neck and my husband taking my car to get the oil changed and washed.
WIN
So, where are they filming today?? It's my last chance to go I definately don't want to miss it. Also, is Johnny there? Or is he done filming now?
ReplyDeleteFilming Wisconsin
ReplyDeleteDon't think JD will be there but not sure
Can you be more specific anon?
ReplyDeleteLike where in Wisconsin?
Thanks!!!
They aren't filming in Wisconsin!!
ReplyDeleteSo they are filming Wisconsin, but not in the state of Wisconsin?
ReplyDeleteHmmm?
Hey who's!! Tell us more about disinformation, if you can... LOL
ReplyDeleteIf you know, then why are you asking?
ReplyDeleteNow HNT, HeidiMitchell, and charyl are calling us all stalkers on IMDB :P
ReplyDeleteDidn't say I knew. Ah, you're a funny one anon aren't you!! LMAO
ReplyDeleteSo, is it safe to say C-bus is out for today and tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteThis is all very confusing for a Friday without much coffee :)
Jenny,
ReplyDeleteCan you email me...
your email..
I have a important question for you..
rreichgeld@yahoo.com
~robbi
Jenny, you weren't there, you can't be a stalker.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think they were stalking me! They are the ones who were camped outside my house for 5 days!!!
ReplyDeleteHey robbi, I just emailed you.
ReplyDeleter-----t?
ReplyDeleteWow... please tell me who HNT is! I must know! Last night was fun... exhausted today... but it was WORTH it!
ReplyDeleteJenny You got mail
ReplyDelete~robbi
So does anybody from last night's trip know where the filming is going to be today? Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteJenny I was just typing out loud...ignore
ReplyDeleteJenny "those people" on IMBD are just silly. I think its so funny that they cut down Rod and this blog, AND the people that post here, yet they still come here and read it every day!! LMAO!!
ReplyDeleteHi everyone!
ReplyDeleteI have been reading what you write, and wow!, Johnny continues in Chicago, that's great!.
I'm from chile, here are many fans of Johnny, who would like to have the opportunity to meet Johnny
I know that someday in my life I will have the opportunity of met him!
I hope so!
Greetings from South America, Chile!
kisses!
PS: Hi Osh!
Did you see to Johnny again? :O
Hi Tamara!
ReplyDeleteYes, it was a long day...we did see JD. I just wrote up my blog and posted my super bad pictures.
Vicky was able to take some really good ones though.
Yeah, why do they come here and read if they just cut us down all the time? Maybe they're stalking us?
ReplyDeleteI also have a ton of great pics from last night and the few before it... I haven't been home long enough to get them on-line... I'll do it this week-end. My friend Missy brought her son Zac (5) who is a huge JD fan... we watched "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and part of "Pirates" on the way down. Jerry came by and talked to Zac, asked him what his favortie movie was and Zac said "Charlie" then I said, "Tell Jerry your favorite line" Zac said "The Earth says hello" it was adorable, When JD came by he was so sweet, he bent down to talk to Zac and hugged him... I got a cute pic of this.. I was a little too close so you only see the top of Zac's head but still really cute. Can't wait to share the pics with all of you.
ReplyDeleteCool!
ReplyDeleteWell, I visit you blog!
and the pictures are really cool
Vicky looks great with these pink sunglasses LOL! :P
I saw the book of the meet of Evan and Johnny
looks great,so cute and so sweet!
congratulations!
I'm so excited!
and happy for you, Vicky and Shaken!
greetings Dear!
Jenny,
ReplyDeleteAny white trucks spotted near Columbus yet? Someone is out there spreading a lot of BS trying to throw us off. Always anonymous.....
Evan heard Lockport. I heard nothing.
ReplyDeleteIs anyone gonna tell me about HNT or what? I'm dying over here! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI heard Lockport as well.
I don't know anything Becky, other than I am still awake.
ReplyDeleteStill? Yikes... go to sleep... I got a whole 4 hours and had to be back at work... oh well... one more chance tonight. =)
ReplyDeleteHey Peeps, Rod put up a new blog for today.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing.......
