    I used to think Fan clubs were totally hip. Until I joined one. It was for Mary-Chapin Carpernter. Then I got the newsletter, and it's like *ZONK* every little minute detail of her life, anything, be it a magazine article, radio mention, tv appearance, etc.

    Really freaked me out.

    So I de-joined. Must be a BYATCH to be a star where *that* aspect is concerned. I mean, I know, they "deserve" the annoyances of being in the public eye, but JEEEZ.

    Then today I was looking for the name of the latest Ben Affleck/Sandy Bullock flick, and I found this:

    http://benaffleck.com/specialties/affleckted/index.html

    Now that, friends, is SPOOOOKY shit.

    If I EVER become famous, I'm going to live in some yurt in a remote forest in the Appalachian Mountains.

    Yeah. Only the yurt will have electricity, and cable, and an ISDN line, and running water, and... OH FUCK... I change my mind. Gimme a BIG ole spread in Marina Del Ray, CA or Coronado Island, CA. BRING ON THE FANS & THEIR CLUBS!!!

    Holy crap! James you weren't kidding about spooky shit from Affleckted. I read two postings at random and that was 2 postings TOO many. Makes one wish for the back issues of Tiger Beat...Leif, where are you???

    People, prick up your goddamned ears (incidentally, Prick Up Your Ears was the first movie I ever saw with Oldman in it, and I loved him, but even better is fucking Romeo is Bleeding...that shit's hardfuckingcore):
    I joined a fan club today.
    It was some sick thing I couldn't stop myself from doing, for character actor Jack Black (from such fine pictures as Dead Man Walking *hated it*, the Cable Guy *fucking loved it* and Enemy of the State...and most recently as Titus in I Still Know What You Did Last Summer *couldn't believe how wretched it was*). And I could have resisted except the teenaged twat who owned the page admitted to liking N' Sync and The Backstreet Boys more, but wanted to be the first to have an official fan club for someone, and apparently JB is a fan orphan. I couldn't resist coupling with her in this way. OH GOD.

    Margret-- you *hated* Dead Man Walking? Wow. One of my fave movies! What charcter did JB portray?
