HOWEVER - if you are looking for a nice clock tower to replace the one lost on the Back To The Future set. Feel free to contact us. I bet you could use ours.
And guess what - on this day in 1912 Universal was founded. Independent Motion Picture Company and several smaller studios merged to become The Motion Picture Patents Company. In 1915 they purchased a 230 acre plot of land and called it Universal City.
Universal City Studios is 80% owned by GE.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Today is DJ and my one year +1 day Anniversary of moving to Columbus. So far no one has told us to move back to Madison so I guess we will stay another year
-------------------------------------------------------------
Well well well - Johnny Depp won some awards. Good for him. However - the guys personality really was lacking in his acceptance speech's. Shy???? Looki'n good though.
And those Pussy Cat Dolls sure can sing!! There song with the lyric "“When I grow up…I wanna have boobies," is a classic that will live through the centuries!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Because of you guys I lost $10 in my Sex in the City Weekend box office gamble. I predicted it would be $44 to $53 million. It came in with a whopping $55.7 million with 85% of the audience woman .
-------------------------------------------------------------
Tonight 9:00 is The Mole. If you have never seen this outstanding show you should check it out. They decided to bring it back because for four years people kept asking about it.
The premise is a around the world travel adventure with with physical and mental challenges, not eating live bugs but but real brain teasers and so forth. For every challenge the teams complete they get $$. However - one unknown pre picked person is The Mole and his/her job is to sabotage the challenges.
Everyone knows there is a Mole and at the end of the episode they take a test and whoever gets the most wrong is . . . . vanquished from the show.
It's a thinking mans unscripted show. I can't wait!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Gardens - WOW - did this weekend perk things up! I'll have some photos tomorrow with some perennials that I can not think of what they are - maybe you guys can help. The wind blew away the little thingys that said what they were.
There is one flower I planted a few days ago - it's called Big Sky After Midnight (Echinacea purpurea x paradoxa).
I planted this next to the Lazy Susan's. Should be a nice contrast. The entire Big Sky Series looks interesting. They have strong stems for wind.
OK - fires to put out - it's the first of the month!
This JUST in - Nancy O has given approval to post card #4 !! So there are two "out there" and three on the way and one in the works!
Rod
I thought Johnny was really sweet at the awards last night, recognizing that the show is about the fans who vote not about a myriad list of producers and what not. That's what the Oscars are for. He was just humbled by the devotion fo his fans.
ReplyDeletePLUS, HE LOOKED GOOD!
I must admit that I voted!
- Tanya
Rod, you said boobies! Ha, ha! Jenny said we can't say boobies on this site.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Rod, we all like shy on this site. So last night Johnny was perfect!
ReplyDeleteSo Leelee Sobieski is apparently in PE as well. Was this already known? Here's the report: http://tinyurl.com/3wv2n9
ReplyDeleteLeelee Sobieski - no this is new - plays Dillinger's last girlfriend ??
ReplyDeleteHappy 1Year and 1Day Anniversary!!!!
ReplyDeleteHe was alittle shy!!!
But that is ok, he still is cute!
The Clock would be a great copy for Back to the Future!
~robbi
It seemed to me that Johnny couldnt even get a word in with all the applause and screaming going on. Loved his nervous ticks!
ReplyDeleteLotus, you can say boobies... just not t*ts! Even MTV bleeped that word. =0P
Rod, nice pic of the flower... it does look like a nice contrast to the yellows.
Not sure why there seems to be so much controversy about LeeLee... there was something mentioned about a 9/11 poem she had written ( I havent seen it) and that seems to be why her fan base popularity has diminished. I saw her in "88 Minutes" with Al Pacino and she was pretty good.
MILWAUKEE NEWS!!!-I guess the statement that Milwaukee is no longer an issue must be wrong!
ReplyDeleteYesterday,I actually had the opportunity to see the setting from the inside(I went to Riversplash Festival and while waitinh for my friend I saw a couple of people going inside the Historical Society Center..I was like,ok,if they do it,I better try to sneak in,too.It turned out that due to the festival people were allowed to use the bathrooms there;at least that´s what a visitor told me).Anyways,there was an associate of the museum in there who took care that no one took pictures of the setting(I was trying to take a picture of this amazing bank vault,but he said that Universal wouldn´t hesitate to call the FBI),and I asked him if he knew what happened to the movie shooting in Milwaukee.He said that Christian Bale had a couple of commitments or sth.and that therefore filming in Chicago had to be finished first(obviously scenes without him?)and then the crew would come to Milwaukee.Sometime in June he said.
I was pretty lucky to get inside cuz a couple of minutes later when I wanted to go in there again together with a friend,they wouldn´t let us in anymore.
So,I guess there will be another chance to see JD for us folks in Wisconsin.
Keep your finger´s crossed!
Sandy
I agree with Minxie, it seems Johnny couldn't get a word in edgewise with all the screaming!
ReplyDeleteIs DJ better yet?
Thanks for the info Sandy. I hope PE will be back in WI; too bad its Milwaukee. I'm afraid of Milwaukee; almost as much as I am afraid of Chicago! Not a big city girl.
ReplyDeleteJD has a new tatoo that says "I love Wisconsin and Evan" did you see it?
ReplyDeleteminxie, how are you this fine day? We're having a heat wave here in WI; it's now 76 degrees and rising. Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteosh, you're wrong! It said "I love Wisconsin chicks and cheese curds!"
ReplyDeleteOh, I can see the next NE article already (get your camera ready, j^p). "Lee Lee takes Johnny from
ReplyDeleteMarion. Co-stars do battle on set"
lol
Milwaukee is Tame compared to Chicago.!
ReplyDeleteBut the area of the Historical Building is hard to find good parking in Milwaukee.
Hope DJ is feeling better today!
~robbi
I'm afraid of Milwaukee and Chicago too!! They need to come back to Columbus!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sue! You're a fine, fine woman. Columbus would be good, but Wauau would be better! :) We have some nice old buildings. And chicks and cheese curds!
ReplyDeleteGreat news! Thanks Sandy!
ReplyDeleteOsh, Lotus.... you are both wrong about the tattoo... it says:
"Sir Jack, Love!"
I am doing well today thanks Lotus! And you? I really should be working, or doing laundry or gardening or whatever... but I just cant get motivated....
Ooops, I meant Wausau! With the USA in the middle.
ReplyDeleteyou guys are so freaking blind
ReplyDeleteYea, I'm not motivated either. That's why I'm at work! Have a great day. Lunch is over.
ReplyDelete76 is a heatwave? LOL.... we are 79 today.... *sighs* the sun and garden are calling me.... and then Rod has to show off his flower! pfftt! Looks like I need to start showing him up with some of my plants!
ReplyDeleteAhhh minxie, you steal my heart.
ReplyDeleteNow, back to work, Love.
-Sir Jack
Osh... I thought you were blind? LOL.... maybe it says:
ReplyDeleteRod's Bloggers Rock!
*waves* bye Lotus... have a great rest of your day...
Beat still my heart.... Sir Jack! You're back!!!
ReplyDelete*swoons*
Minxie, I'm deaf, not blind.
ReplyDeleteOops sorry Osh... wrong sense! =0P
ReplyDeleteThen I will take the blind!
I still think it says:
Minxie is blind! LMAO!
JD was so sweet last night...He is shy, but I love that about him...makes him very special and somehow mysterious ;)
ReplyDeleteHe's so natural, down to earth and such a great actor :D
I can't wait to see Public Enemies.
Rod :) that's a great blog :) always very interesting stuff to read.
greetings from Germany
Julia :)
Julia are you never in the US anymore???
ReplyDelete~Minxie~ that is what the flower COULD look like - we here in Wisconsin only have 30 growing days you know.
Sandy - good work!!
robbi - I would rather go to Chicago - dj answers to many crime victum calls from Milwaukee and none from Chicago. Of course she works for The State :-)
Johnnys Tatto said and I quote "I love PublicEnemiesColumbus".
@Rod :)
ReplyDeleteNo,I come from Germany, but would love to visit the states in the future :)..I really dream about it...
Rod, do you have a real e-mail adress?Could I contact you for some more questions?(just don't want to fill the guestbook with my personal stuff ;))
Julia
JD is a shy little thing and hates crowds. That's why he needs that big scary bodyguard to protect him.
ReplyDeleteDid you see that eejit in the Chicago Sun Times discribe Jerry as 6'6" and 300lbs? Blogs are much more accurate than newspapers.
"and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can, and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use.. Public Enemies Columbus."
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Johnny has his "cat in the hat" hat in his backpocket...the one he wore on the 12th!
ReplyDeleteVery cool...
I've been "gone for a week"...well not gone...just had the first kid graduate from High School on Sat...party's done, ceremony is done, and the all night graduation party too....i went with my daughter and her friends and did photos...I'm kinda proud of them...check them out at
http://s290.photobucket.com/albums/ll274/cricketphotography/
Tracy aka cricket...
Lotus; don't be calling me names!
ReplyDeleteNo one has ever accused me of being a fine woman!! ROFLOL I take that back; my kids have said similar things!
That Romeo Anon writes like my hubby used to when he was courting me, and still does when he wants out of yard work...
ReplyDeleteRod, your purple flower looks like what my cone flowers are supposed to look like if they ever come up.
And I can confirm that JD's tatoo says "I love J^P"
Sorry, Sue. My bad! You're a despicable, horrid wench! You and osh should become fast friends. :) And since you are so horrid, you should like Milwaukee and Chicago. What gives?
ReplyDeleteAah, minxie, how come Sir Jack graced you with his attentions? I want to spoon (I mean swoon) with Sir Jack, also. (oogly eyes)
Lotus, I have to agree with you while Columbus would be good, Wausau would be even better. And we do have cobblestone roads so they wouldn't even have to lay any down.
ReplyDeleteI think it was the book "Don't Call Us Molls" the author wrote Wawsaw several times.
ReplyDeleteAlmost as bad as OshKosh
Lotus.... *laughs* you are too funny!
ReplyDeleteRod,
ReplyDeleteI finally got around to getting a screen name here.
Are you still interested in the picture and autograph?
by the way...welcome to Columbus for 1 year and 1 day. I don't really think I have any authority to welcome you, but as a life long resident, I'm going to anyway. New prople are GOOD!
John
I hope you're still talking to me.
Lol....what a day. Started at 4am with a flat tire....thankfully it got better...but i'm in class until 10:30pm.
ReplyDeleteI didn't see any of the MTV Awards...but I'm pretty sure that JD's tattoo said J^P sucks.
osh, I noticed that in the Molls book. At first I thought it was spelled Warsaw, which really annoyed me! The Wawsaw just had me thinking, "Huh? Where'd that come from!?!"
ReplyDeletej^p, I agree w/you. JD's tatoo does say you suck! But in a good way. :0
Lotus - Do you remember the commercial that the Wausau stations use to play about 15-20 years ago where everyone kept pronouncing it Warsaw? Was that for Wausau Ins? I don't even remember if it was tv or radio, but someone would say it wrong at the beginning of the commercial and the voiceover would keep saying Wausau.
ReplyDeleteCathy
Cathy, I do remember that commerical and it was for Wausau Insurance. Ultimately, that is where the "with the USA in the middle came from." Funny thing happened on my only trip to Los Angeles, CA, way back in 1986 (I think). I was living in Virginia at the time, but I saw the Wausau Ins commercial on tv in Los Angeles and thought, "Dumb commerical. You're just teaching people to say it wrong."
ReplyDeleteHere's hopin' dj is back on top of the weather!
ReplyDeleteLooooong stinkin day!
Just read all the comments and now can't remember what I read... being indoors all day kills brain cells!
Yeah, Johnny was just right!
Osh - cowbirds! you are toooo funny! thanks! does Evan hate me now?
Yeah - more new to me names = ) Hi Julia! Hi Sandy! Did I forget anyone?
ReplyDeleteWhat is the update on filming dates? Are they still in Chicago? I live in Chicago so for the people who posted that they are afraid to come to Chicago I don't blame you. I don't like it here at all. It's pretty awful.
ReplyDeleteI was born in Wausau! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Shakenbsis *waves* I just posted over at your place!
ReplyDeleteI was so glad to see JD win twice last night--I didn't even know he was up for two awards! He was very gracious and humble in his speech like you would expect. I read somewhere someone commented on his hair and called it "The Depp." haha
Being just an observer from afar the past week or so (brain too jumbled to make coherent sentences) I loved the cheese curd conversation! I think Minxie needs a cheesehead to go with her pirate outfit! The shy thread...yes I'm shy I think anyone that knows me can tell. I remember as a little girl LITERALLY hiding behind my mother's skirt! Thankfully, I've been able to get over being THAT shy!
Lotus, Osh, Minxie and Shakenbsis--who were the other drinkers?? RUM I love it--specially Cruzan flavored. My recipe is this: Pour some amount of coconut rum into a glass of ice. Add Sierra Mist and a splash of margarita mix. Summer is here!! :)
Anyway, I'm up and about and thank you guys for the "hope you feel better's!" I do feel better--so far so good--I am hoping the fevers stay away!!
One more thing..Mary--Thank God you are okay!! People should drink and post, not drink and drive.
Yeah! Three cheers for dj!!!
ReplyDeleteSHE LIVES! = ) Welcome back Chick-a-dee, you've been missed.
(I just saw your other post and left you one back, thanks!)
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ROD AND DJ!!!
ReplyDeleteWow...lots of posts yesterday...took me forever to get through them! Nice pics of JD at the awards last night. I must have watched the clips about 100 times LOL. Everyone thinks I need JD counseling...but I think I just need some more rum!
I also heard the same thing about Milwaukee filming when my friend was down at river splash. She was told next week they would be there Fri-Sun, but who knows....everything changes so quickly. Parking is a HUGE problem down there....but nothing to be afraid of. If we get a confirmation date...anyone want to meet me down there??
Shak - I haven't had a chance yet to look at pics of kitties, but I will as soon as I can.
I kinda hope that PE comes back to Columbus as it is a bit m ore secluded, and the crowds in Milwaukee are gonna be HUGE. When they held a casting call there a few months ago, there were over 1500 people waiting in line. I have a picture of that on my blog from a previous post I made. Not really all too clear since it was like 10 degrees outside, but still fun to look at.
Vicky
I'm in Doc! I like Milwaukee and Chicago... = )
ReplyDeleteIs the Historical Society anywhere near the 3rd ward art district? (I love that area)
j^p, you were NOT! But if you were, that explains the erratic behavior and why you went to prison. Were you born in the Wausau Hospital? Which one? What year? Just testing you.
ReplyDeleteI don't know the hospital...but it was on a hill. ;)
ReplyDeleteI went to kindergarten at Grant school and 1st grade at St. Anne's.....
And i used to live on Bridge St. (a block down from Newman)
Did i pass the quiz????
Yes, dj, glad you're back and feeling better! I agree with you; drink & post, only. The worst you can do is run over someone's feelings. (Sorry, to anyone I've offended.) (Well, not counting j^p!) Your rum drink sounds great! I'll try that this weekend. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou forgot the year j^p.
ReplyDeleteOK, is it just me? Those Pussy Cat Dolls look like a gang of street thugs--VERY MEAN! Then look at JD, he's all calm and nice. I'd rather watch Johnny!
ReplyDeleteyou crack me up Lotus! Don't run me down!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI thought the PCDs looked nice. :)
ReplyDeletej^p, you're avoiding a critical question in our Wausau exam. How old are you?
ReplyDeletehi-*WAVES*guys!!!
ReplyDeletehead is fuzzy-- nasty cold-allergies I have no clue... yeah for Johnny on the MTV awards!! he was the only Classy thing besides Coldplay(love their music!!!) if I had so see Paris Hilton one more time ehhh.... I did LOVE the Wayne's World skit.
Johnny looked great and I think was the only actor who did not plug an upcoming movie.....
hope everyone is well
shaken-- hope kittens and momma are well
osh -I hope dillenger is enjoying his new home....
shakenbsis, honey, can I call you "shakes" like your friends do? I wouldn't cut you down unless you asked, like Sue did! (I don't understand her!) UNLESS you join forces with j^p, in which case you're doomed.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary, Rod and DJ...and gorgeous pic of flower...I'm jealous! Hey, Rod, if I am interested in your postcards, what should I do? Email you since I am from out of town?
ReplyDeleteDJ, glad you are feeling much better.
Blaze-I'd be happy to join you in Milwaukee...Schools over with on Monday next week, so I am FREEEEEE! I haven't heard anything about that yet but I'll keep my ears open...
Minxie, you so need a cheesehead for that pirate costume. LMAO picturing that!
When watching the Mole tonight, cheer on Mark from Wisconsin...he's a pretty nice guy but can be abrasive at times. I wonder how they'll play him off to be????
So what is everyone drinking tonight?
PS JD was HOT last night, and innocent and humble...I just wish he didn't have the gum...pet peeve, sorry!
Sorry guys it was me posting and my husband was logged in on his google acct it's the fuzzy head
ReplyDeleteso last post as bernnie was me as "LAURA"
sigh.....
Peg I absolutely agree on the gum
ReplyDeletenot great
that's about as bad a eating/chewing with mouth open!!
What are we drinking tonight? Tell me it's not rum again. *smiles*
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
How old do i act lotus? :P
ReplyDeleteOh Lotus! You can call me pretty much anything you like doll! (aren't you already my friend?) =)
ReplyDeleteHi Laura, i thought it was you... Momma is much better! thanks!
Hi Peg, Hi Sir...
ReplyDeleteno drinks for me tonight I'm afraid. Maybe ice water and lime... I'm thinking I might have to go to sleep SOON. dang, gettin old stinks! is it only monday???
Hi Shakes...you have an awesome blog about your girls...what a huge heart you have...
ReplyDeleteI wish we would've talked more that night in C-bus. I would love to hear more about your life with these two beautiful girls...and all the cute kitteh stories..
I'm drinking soda tonight...should be grading essays instead of blogging, but this is too much fun!
J^P, nice pic in NE. Got any pics of LeeLee to go with the previously stated storyline???
Hmm, water and lime sounds good for tonight. BTW, about the gum...it's for nerves Love.
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
I noticed the "Cat in the Hat" hat too...in Johnny's back pocket. I think it's also the same one he wore when he got his Star on the walk of fame. I think it's his lucky hat. He's so cute. :-)
ReplyDeleteAww Shak! The momma looks so adorable watching the little birdies!
ReplyDeleteSo Peg, and Shak are in for Milwaukee filming! YAY! I wish we could get confirmation on dates, but the way things go who knows!
Come on Rod.....you can find out!!!
As of last night....I am confused as to who Sir Jack is LOL. I kept reading and reading....but maybe it's the rum tlaking....I am still confused.
vicky
We aren't sure who he is (for sure)Vicky, but we love him... = )
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty flexy/bendy, I can be there most anytime... (lucky me!)
except June 10th, 11th, 14th, 28th... hmmm, maybe not as flexy as I think!
did I already say nice pics cricket? = )
ReplyDelete*goes to get ice water & lime*
thanks Peg! maybe we'll have our chance to commune in Milwaukee = )
ReplyDeletej^p--infantile! But cute, in an infantile way.
ReplyDeleteLOL SHak....I can't make it on the 11th either. My grandparents are coming over from England, and I have to pick them up in Chicago. HMMMMMMMM....Chicago??? Maybe if they are still filming....we might have to take a little "detour" LOL
ReplyDeleteHello to Sir Jack! Missed your comments last night....but nice to meet you.
vicky
Sorry Peg...no LeeLee pics..yet.
ReplyDeleteDrat! My key limes were all dried up, had to settle for regular. Not the same at all...
ReplyDeleteNitey, nite. I'm all in, yawns....
Have fun all!
Infantile? Ouch!
ReplyDeleteI'll be 39 on Flag Day. ;)
Shakes, sure we're friends. I just don't like to call people by nicknames, unless I've gotten permission.
ReplyDeletePeg, let us drink and grade your essays! (Just joking.) But I'll bet you get some doosies! What grade?
Nice to meet you as well Vicky.
ReplyDeleteG' night, Love.
-Sir Jack
Permission officially granted Lotus, you're a dear = )
ReplyDeletejp, is Flag Day same as July 4th?
blazenfire991, "We aren't sure who he is (for sure)" - per Shakes.
ReplyDeleteWe're not even sure he's a he! But Sir Jack is fun! And adorable!
j^p, infantile isn't that bad. You'll be 39, hey? I guess you'll pass the exam. Wait, maybe I have to call in a Proctologist just to be sure!
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if you were born at the hospital in Merrill. It's on a big hill & been there forever!
Hey Doc - before I run off I gotta tell you this. Momma has started grooming her cone now. I get to clean up the part of her she can't and she washes up the collar = )
ReplyDelete"Fun, adorable?" Let's not forget our good host Ron.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the compliment. Snuggle up my lovelies and have a g' night. You make me blush.
-Sir Jack
The gum is a substitute for smoking.
ReplyDeleteBeing a fashion watcher I notice the cat in the hat hat first thing - THEN - the belt! Guy's can't do a lot when it comes to fashion so it's the little things.
ReplyDeleteI think we all have to give a big HI to who'sinmybasement? who has help this whole PE experience more then you can imagine (and I say that seriously).
Flower - NOT my photo - just what it COULD look like.
Post cards - I have 2 in the stores, 3 on the way and one getting printed. No worries - you will know exactly how to get them when the time comes.
DJ is feeling better - I know that now because she was . . . how do you say . . . . arching her back and hissing at politics tonight!
REMEMBER - The Milwaukee 261 will be arriving in Columbus on the 21st - the SAME day we are having the paint fest (hopefully) at the Train Station.
I'm trying to get my brother th big time Historical Architect HUGE train buff to come up.
Flag Day is June 14th!!!
ReplyDeleteSurely you know this!
And just to beat Osh to the punch...the "L" in FLAG is NOT silent. :)
you're right jp, i should! = )
ReplyDeleteYou're one week younger than me jp (not counting the years...)
ReplyDeletej^p, you make me giggle!
ReplyDeleteHELLO, who'sinmybasement?! Thanks for all you've done!
Ok, whosinmybasement?, HI!!!! and thank you for all Rod has insinuated you've done. Whatever it is, it's greatly appreciated, even if it is all hush, hush...
ReplyDeleteWELCOME!
and goodnight all (again)
Giggle? I was hoping for wiggle...but beggars can't be choosers. :)
ReplyDeleteGoodnight, Shakes. You deserve a good night's rest.

Includes part IV of "MS filming PE"
Dang, while I've been doing all this writing, I have been missing out on all the fun. After I get the kids to bed, maybe I can chat a bit.
ReplyDeleteSir Jack, could you give my movie star some lessons?
Of course Love, Have his people call my people.
ReplyDeleteI read your blog--very nice.
-Sir Jack
O MY GOD!!! Did anyone else see today's All My Children? I just got done watching it and I'm bawling my eyes out!
ReplyDeleteI know there was a hospital on a hill in Wausau, because my boyfriend said that he was born there. I think he said that now it's an home or something.
ReplyDeleteNope I didn't see AMC, I'm a Young and the Restless and Bold and Beautiful person.
ReplyDeleteOh no Jenny, don't tell me... I'm heading that way now to curl up w/my vhs... (I don't wanna cry)
ReplyDeleteThat's what I always say; the beggars thing!
ReplyDeleteYep, fanfromwi, there was the old Memorial Hospital and it was on a small hill.
Sir Jack is back and being very nice to people. Must we be nice in return?
And where's minxie?
Speaking of really sad things... did you hear that Bo Diddley died? I will truly miss him and his music.
ReplyDeleteLotus my Love, "must we be nice?" How can a rare and lovely "flower" like you not be nice?
-Sir Jack
Sir Jack,
ReplyDeleteYes, I will have his people call your people and you can "do lunch". Wait, one problem. I don't think he has people. :-0
I've been gone most of the weekend so I didn't have a chance to comment on the whole "shy" discussion, so here goes.....I have been regular viewer on this blog from about the beginning but it took me a while before i finally started to comment but under anon and then adding my name at the end. I started with the blog because I have loved JD for a long time & was so excited to think he would be in Wisconsin & I would get a chance to maybe see him. I did travel to Columbus (I live in Wausau)& got to see him on the March 20th (but wasn't fortunate to get a hug or handshake). I tend to be a bit of a loner but it has been so fun learning about all of you. I wish I lived closer to Columbus to be able to do the whole Kurth thing. Maybe I will get a chance to get down there some Friday.
ReplyDeleteRod...just wanted to let you know I have my "Rod on a stick" ready and waiting in case there is a return to Columbus. I planned to come down for that last night of filming in Columbus but the weather turned nasty and I was a bit worried about traveling that late at night to such a remote place...I chickened out and I
really regret it.
Sorry for this ramble... Oh, and one last thing Rod, I still think you should enlarge that great pic of Dillinger for the Kurth's wall.
Char
Here is a Big Hi!!! To whosinmybasement, Thanks for the info you gave Rod to pass on to us...
ReplyDeleteNo Drinks tonight for me.
I am yawning !!! Thanks to Shaken heehee! just kidding!
Festa Italiana down at the Summer Fest Grounds in Milwaukee is really a good one to..
~robbi
Robbi--yes! We go there too. Breaded eggplant strips with marinara, mmmmmm. It's a once a year treat for me.
ReplyDeleteDearest Movie Star Wife, so unfortunate about your sweet hubby not having "people." Now that I think of it, neither do i. *smirks and chews gum LOUDLY*
ReplyDeleteEh, we can still do lunch.
-Sir Jack
Breaded eggplant and marinara? Yum!
ReplyDeleteWifey is italian...and she can cook...kinda. :)
I love festa!
ReplyDeleteWho is who'sin the basement?? LOl I am gone for 45 min, and come back....someone new LOL.
Sir Jack - :) I grew up in England, and every time I hear the word "love" .... it takes me back home. I say it now and again when the "accent" pops up from no where.
Shak - Momma is too funny! I had a cat that used to clean the collar bc she hated it being dirty I guess.
Minxie - You here tonight...or did the rum get ya once more? ( Sure got me last night....headed that way tonight too)
Vicky
Sir Jack, you are VERY good (slick)! But as we all know, there are two sides to a lotus flower; beauty from the muck! "The pure white lotus flower...emerges from the depths of the muddy swamp. Growing from the mud at the bottom of ponds and streams..." So you take the light with the dark; sunlight and pondscum!
ReplyDeleteWent back and re read Rod's post:
ReplyDeleteHELLO and TY to Whosinmybasement!!
vicky
Hello to "whosinmybasement." I love your name. Makes me want to change mine to "whatsonmyroof."
ReplyDeleteSigh, squirrels here have been stampeding, trampling and chasing each other all day.
-Sir Jack
And I was saddened to hear that Bo Diddley died. He was awesome!
ReplyDeleteI loved the Mole and am watching it right now. So far not sure if it seems as good as the original one.....hope I'm wrong!
ReplyDeleteChar
Vicky, Love. My accent "pops" up from nowhere as well. I hope you don't miss home too much.
ReplyDeleteLotus my little sunny pondscum flower. You're a little scary sometimes. But I love you anyway.
-Sir Jack
I am going to go out on a limb very early in the game and identify Lotus as the mole on this blog.....
ReplyDeleteHi y'all...I've been here since the beginning but for reasons known only to me I've been lurking.
ReplyDeleteI've totally enjoyed all the conversation, the rum drinks and even enjoy the antics of Sir Jack. Actually...you guys crack me up!!!
We're hoping Mr. Mann and crew decide to come back to Columbus. I'll keep working to that goal.
Rod, Thanks for talking to me.
Hello Whosinmybasement!
ReplyDeleteThanks for everything! This is a fun group of people, and they crack me up too! You should sign on and post some more! It's always fun to talk to new people.
Sir Jack - Aren't accents fun? Sometimes when I am talking to a client that's from England I start picking it up and I'll talk like that for hours and hours. Drives everyone at work crazy.....and I have no control over it. LOL
vicky
After I quit smoking I got addicted to chewing gum! I had never chewed gum till then. Now I must have it anytime I leave the house. I reckon it worked--I've been quit 15 years. :o)
ReplyDeleteCongrats deppaddicted!
ReplyDeleteThat's impressive!

Sir Jack,
ReplyDeleteI believe you and I have much in common, that being neither of us is common. I enjoy your poetry (if that's what you choose to call it) (that's what my wife says it is) but let's leave it at that.
Oh and I miss my home terribly. If my hubbie would move there we would be over there in an instant. Not that I don't love WI, but England is my home...and all my family (save for my parents and sis) still live there. It's sad to not see them daily. Family is very important, and I miss them. But now I have found some new friends on here, and it brightens my day just to pop in and say each day!

JP you're so right. She our sunny, yet shady, mole-like flower of a mole. (hic, takes another swig of rum)
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
Thanks for all you can do who'sin mybasement? We will be forever grateful to you!
ReplyDeleteI think Sir Jack is the Mole.....

My addiction is chocolate.
ReplyDeleteNow that my rugrats are in bed, I am going to break out the ice cream, Hersheys chocolate syrup, and whipped cream.
WTG deppaddict! I am still a smoker, but trying to quit. Hubbie smokes so it is hard for me, but working on it! Congrats!
ReplyDeletevicky
per who'sinmybasement, "We're hoping Mr. Mann and crew decide to come back to Columbus. I'll keep working to that goal." Honey, if you can manage that I'll buy you a flaming rum toddie!
ReplyDeleteSir Jack: A little scary, huh? As my Disco Duck would say, "That's the way, uh huh, uh huh, I like it, uh huh, ah huh!"
I am also forming the Johnny Depp Anonymous group ( my version of AA)
ReplyDeleteApparently there are several people I work with who say I really need it LOL
MOvie star wife - Wanna share that ice cream...I love ice cream!! (with some M and Ms on it too)
vicky
I read (not in the Enquirer)that JD was trying to quit smoking....maybe you could give him some pointers DeppAddicted.
ReplyDeleteDearest "whosslimybasement." I believe you might have hit the nail on the proverbial head. But I wouldn't call it poetry, lad. Keep swinging.
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
blaznfire...I would join your Johnny Depp Anonymous group, but I really don't want to quit....I think this may be a problem!
ReplyDeleteChar
Vicky--I say "ice-cream for everyone!" It's very good for you. Well, psychologically anyways. Yes. M & M's. Banana's are good too. Maybe crushed oreos. . .
ReplyDeleteI am not the mole! Apparently you have to be very intelligent for that, and I am not. Although there is a certain mole-like quality about me; like when I stay in the dark basement...
ReplyDeletedeppaddicted, way to quit smoking!
I am so hungry now! Decided to make a little sundae LOL.
ReplyDeleteChar - I would join my own club too....if I really wanted to "quit"LOL.....I love being a JD fan, bc I respect what he brings to the screen, and how he represents himself. It's not all about the looks as my co-workers think (but it doesnt hurt either)
vicky
Lotus my Love, you have a duck? Any more dark secrets to share?
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
Oh and Lotus LOVE the little girl picture as your icon. Is that your daughter? She's beautiful!
ReplyDeletevicky
you all are making me hungry for dairy queen......
ReplyDeleteLotus has a duck!
ReplyDelete...and a nice big waffle cone of duck.
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
My girls want to go to the Kurth Brewery this Friday. They aren't old enough, but as a family member I bet I can get them in. Anybody else planning on being there?
ReplyDeleteI have crabs! (I LOVE saying that!) Well, tech, I have one crab because he killed the last one to share his crib. I'm not very good with plants or animals that need care and attention, so I took in a homeless Hermit Crab. His name is Big Fat Bastard, and he doesn't like to share his space.
ReplyDeleteLotus...what's the deal with the duck?? I missed where that came from.
ReplyDeleteChar
Thanks blaznfire911, you're so sweet! She's my granddaughter and I have stolen her identity.
ReplyDeleteWell let's not taunt the Big Fat Bastard. But does he like the duck?
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
Hey, does anyone know where Osh is? I don't think she has been on here since this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteChar see Lotus 9:35 pm, today. I was just remembering Disco!
ReplyDeleteAwww well she's adorable Lotus!
ReplyDeleteWhosinmybasement - I want to go to Kurth's on Friday, but I am not sur eif I can. My hubby may have a prob with it since we live in Waukesha LOL. I'm gonna try though bc from what I understand it is a bunch of people's bdays and they are going to be up there.
Have a good night everyone! I am full after eating my ice cream....gonna have a drink then off to bed!
Vicky
Sir Jack, BFB didn't really like the duck. I did though; it was GREAT with plum sauce!
ReplyDeletePlum sauce? Ewww.......
ReplyDeleteWhere is Osh tonight? Anyone know?
I don't want to get out of class and find her lurking in the back seat of my car...in a dark parking lot.
One of the girls in my basement has a B-day this week and she wants to go to Kurth's. They all want to go to Kurth's. I would really like to meet a hol' bunch of you. So, come on down. Let's get that back room rock'n.
ReplyDeleteLotus, Shh, your dark side is showing. *nearly vomits* Poor Disco. My, poor, poor, plum-sauced Disco.
ReplyDelete-Sir Jack
I just had some Vanilla Ice cream with Death by Chocolate Cake! Yummo!\
ReplyDeleteToasted Ravioli for me...
at Festa...
Real good.
Rod hope you enjoyed The Mole tonight.
~robbi
"Let's get that back room rock'n."
ReplyDeleteBRING YOUR OWN CHAIR! LOL
Lots of Birthdays days this week.
Should be a nice night - we can sit outside!!
ANOTHER GUY!!!!! WEEEE!!
RE: Disco - Well, at least he was SAUCED!
ReplyDeleteSir Jack, we are waiting to hear one of your poems (limericks?). Please share with us.
The Mole - as normal the very first episode is not that great - no one really knows the players yet.
ReplyDeleteThey all still have their fake personalities not the real ones.
It'll get better - always does.
I applied for Survivor (I am a Non-Cooperative Game Theory dude), would get lost on the Amazing Race and would have applied for The Mole but it went AWOL for 4 years.
JP~ not sure where she was tonight, I did not see her either...
ReplyDeleteBetter look in your car just incase!
~robbi
Lol...well..it's been a long day. I probably won't fall asleep on my way home from Green Bay if she's lurking back there......
ReplyDeleteJust finished watching The Mole and AMC simultaneously...
ReplyDeleteruined the mood a little Jenny, or I'd be bawling too...
Is it Peg's friend who's on the Mole? (Bobby, maybe?) can't remember and too tired to go back and look through 300+ comments!
now it's really g'nite. Hope Osh and Minxie are out having a REAL life! = )
y'all are GREAT fun...
My first "official" day on publicenemiescolumbus.blogspot.com is coming to an end. Good Night all my new friends!
ReplyDeleteSir Jack...Arrrr!
See ya tomorrow!
Night all. Gotta work in the morning--better get some sleep.
ReplyDeletezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Well JP if she is lurking then she may just keep you awake poking you in your ear with a QTip...
ReplyDelete~robbi
I want to be on 'Deal or No Deal,' and make the Banker cry!
ReplyDeleteminxie,I missed you this evening. We didn't make anyone walk the plank!
ReplyDeleteWell, 'night all! Have to get some rest.
That would be fun.
ReplyDeleteDeal or No Deal!!!!
~robbi
Sorry Loves, I won't be able to attend at Kurth's. My identity would be blown and my people won't let me go. Alas, the mystery of Sir Jack continues.
ReplyDeleteSee you on the morrow mates. Cheers.
-Sir Jack
G-Night to you all...
ReplyDeleteYawning more then ever now...
See ya in the AM...
~robbi
I wanna go to the Kurth this Friday !!!!!! (If someone can gimmie directions)
ReplyDeleteI should have tuned in to Rod's weather page. Went to bed about an hour ago....had left the window open.....and it rained right through the window....now bed is soaked :(
G'night for real this time!
ARRRRGGGGG Sir JAck!!! You can come to the Kurth....just dont tell anyone who ya are LOL.
Vicky
I made it home in the rain..but no sign of Osh.
ReplyDeleteShe must be at the airport stalking JD again...
G'night all!
sorry guys, I passed out at 6 from an allergy med induced cocktail...
ReplyDeleteI am not in anybodys basement, panties or otherwise!
idn't read every single comment tonight... not enough hours in the day, but about Milwaukee...
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure that the the Museum staff would be privy to this information. I could be wrong. However, what are they going to shoot?
The Museum was being built out for the American Bank and Trust Company heist interiors... several articles in both the Journal Times and Journal Sentinel have referred to this over the last couple of months.
The interiors for the ABTC heist were shot at the Bridgewater Bank in Chicago on the 19th of last month. The cop hostage from Oshkosh (where the exteriors for this heist were shot) was clearly photographed outside the Bridgewater bank entrance. He is a unique character associated with that heist.
Thinks don't look good for Milwaukee.
Hey all... sorry to have been M.I.A. tonight... I was out with some friends... no rum tonight, Shake got me thinking about tequila so I had one shot, it was smooth...
ReplyDeleteLets see if I can keep this all straight.... =oP

Whosinmybasement: thank you for everything you've done (will you or Rod elaborate on your behind the scenes activities??) and ANYTHING you can do to bring MM and JD back to Columbus!! I'll buy you a drink too if you can do that!
ReplyDeleteANY drink of choice; doesn't have to be rum!! LOL
I'm hoping to get to Kurth's Friday evening after my grandson's baseball game. Should be about 6:45. Hope to see some new faces along with the ones I met the last time!
