Kevin Pollak in an old standup routine

-
I used to have this HBO special on tape many years ago, loaned it to a friend and never got it back. It is brilliant, Pollak does impressions of "real actors" doing the roles of the usual suspects in Star Trek.

One note of explanation needed for the end since it's out of context, "Brian" is Brian Boitano who had won the gold at the Olympics that year, and Pollak was making fun of skating...

    When they cut to a girl in the audience at around the 3:30 mark, I thought it was Chloë Sevigny in American Psycho. And then I remembered this was real, and that was a movie, and Pollack wa doing imitations and man... that was trippy.

    Thou shalt NOT make fun of Star Trek, the single greatest TV show ever invented (other than Gilligan's Island). Unless, of course, you do it well, like this guy did.

    His impressions are amazing. Has he done stuff on "The Simpsons?"

Handicapped Assessable. What does it mean to you? We have seen some pretty poor modifications in our time of pushing Skyler around, but absolutely nothing that compares to this series of pictures from overseas. I will never complain again! (well, yes I will, but only when I really need to...)

Goodbye old friend. Hootie: 1997-2009

I'll never forget the day I first saw him. We were driving home from Golden and Kathy said "Why don't you go this way?" We headed down a street I had never been on and found ourselves driving by a little strip mall. Then Kathy says "Turn in here a minute." Now my spidey senses are on alert, and sure enough, we wind up parking in front of a pet store. Kathy had been out in Golden a couple of days before and had found Hootie sitting in a cage looking so lonely. When we walked in, there was a sad little puppy up high in his own cage, with a sign that had 2 different prices crossed out and the third was pretty low. He had been taken and then returned to the pet store. I knew right then that we were heading home with another dog, I had been suckered! I still wasn't quite over the loss of our Golden Retriever, but I never do seem to get over the loss of a pet. Kathy knows that I need a replacement though, and seeing as we always have dogs in pairs, our
