The Greatest Icon in Film History

November 27, 2005

0 Comments

Ashwini is not the only who sees celebrities in this town. I, too, have a nose for star power, though with a much less serendipitous twist than Ashwini. You see, I have recently begun attending the Creative Screenwriting Magazine’s free movie screening events, which are immediately followed by an interview with screenwriters, directors, producers, and [...]

Just one of those jokes that “never” gets old… Ashwini: Hey! What time is the Pittsurgh/Patriots game? I assume you’ll be watching it?John: Yeah, it’s the 1pm game. Brian/Josh and I are watching it while i TIVO and flip randomly to the Cardinals game. I will rewatch the Cardinals game that night if they win!Ashwini: [...]

Bearded Celebrity Sighting sans Ashwini (avec Lindsor)

February 16, 2005

While Lindsor and I were waiting to be seated at John O’Groats (alternatively known as “John O’Scrots” by Lins), we spotted one of most famous of all bearded celebrities: Scott Ian, vocalist and rhythm guitarist for the band, Anthrax. Even without Ashwini’s guidance, I still acted quickly enough to nab this photograph with my trust [...]

Missed Opportunities

January 24, 2005

Over the past two weeks, I have seen a variety of celebrities roaming the streets of Los Angeles, and not once have I had my trusty LG VX6000 digital camera/cell phone wonder device handy to capture our coexistence. Call it bad luck or simply Ashwini’s absence from my side, but there have been so many [...]

Shaq

After lunch yesterday (sensing that Ashwini and Nick would also be there studying for their final exams) I decided to stop by Jerry’s Deli to begin reading one of several fun new books on DNA Microarrays. As expected, I found the pair huddled in an upstairs corner reviewing “Neuro” material and speaking in a far-out [...]

Random: Chapter 2

March 25, 2004

Today I finally display an image that I’ve been wanting to show everyone for quite some time. In January, Ashwini and I were studying at Jerry’s Deli in Westwood (you might remember Jerry’s Deli from their terribly expensive and disgusting food, the collection of greaseballs that occupy the booths throughout the day, or from that [...]

I’m Tired…hence this totally incoherent and ultimately uninteresting journal entry.

Wow, I’m exhausted. Joy and I just returned from watching The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Special Edition with Brian/Josh and Kathy. Just sitting there and watching that movie is a draining experience, but that was on top of 10 hours in the lab. In fact, I would claim that this was one [...]

Ludacris

I was making my monthly visit to Yahoo Music when I came across this picture of our good friend Ludacris. The first thing that came to mind was the clown from the movie IT. And, now, I thought I would leave you with the conclusion of last night’s IM conversation with Richard: John: Alright, Richard, [...]

The People’s Governor

I thought I would mention a something I heard from Arnold Schwarzenegger when he spoke on Sean Hannity and Larry Elder syndicated talk-radio show. When asked about his opinion on gay marriages, he responded, “I do support domestic partnerships…but I believe gay marriage should be between a man and a woman.” Right… not sure what [...]

Saved by the Bell: Ditch Day

April 2, 2003

0 Comments

I just got home from school and had a chance to catch an episode of Saved by the Bell. Apparently, it wasn’t getting good enough ratings in the 5AM slot it used to have, so they’ve rescheduled it to 4:30PM. This is lucky for me because I tend to get home around this time and [...]
