John Crichton 4 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 375. He has never been to Texas. Insulting.John he did conduct the Dallas Symphony once that I know of.

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 My bad for not taking stuff like that into consideration, even if it was an utterly off the cuff remark (like most things I say here). But like practically ALL long serving Harry Potter fans say: "She's only a few months away". As spoken by Jonathon Ross on his BBC1 friday night chat show.

AI 0 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 340. he votes for himself in the Academy Awards. Well how do you know that AI? Because I was watching Entertainment Tonight once in the early 90's, and there was an interview with JW about that he was nominated twice, for IJ3 and BOTFOJ. He was asked , will you vote for yourself? to which he replied, "will I vote for myself?, oh I would never tell that!" but you can tell by the precious, smug smile on his face that he did in fact vote for himself. But which score did he vote for AI? Born on the fourth of July, of course.350. He is a genuine ass when it comes to signing an autograph for a 15 year old girl chasing his limo for a block in NY at midnight in a skirt and high heels freezing her ass off after waiting an hour after the concert....but I wouldn't know anything about that.I still can't get this image out of my head!

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 I'd disagree with that and reverse it. You really think he could be as cynical as the likes of Jerry Bruckheimer? In that context the comparison is valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
