2 things that are awesome

1. Kemps Fat Free Frozen Yogurt Key Lime Pie

I bought it Saturday morning and I can’t stop myself from devouring it. I doubt it will be around come Monday.

2. Star Trek (2009). I caught it at an iMax theater yesterday and oh my gosh it was fantabulous! LOVED IT! LOVED IT! Did anyone else notice who played Spock’s daddy? BEN CROSS!!!!! He played Barnabas Collins in the early 90’s remake of Dark Shadows.

This is the exact picture I had pinned to the inside of my locker when I was a junior in High School! What is it about men with yellow/green glowing eyes!?!?

Ben Cross wasn’t the only actor I recognized. The guy who played Bones…. I knew him! But from where?!? I asked Lisa and she named some obscure movies he had been in (Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Riddick…) but I had never heard of any of them. Then I started wondering if I could have possibly met this guy on eHarmony or Match… Don’t laugh! He really looked familiar to me and just recently a pro-Sarah Palin documentary came out and the producer/director/interviewer made the rounds on all the different news channels… the guy looked very familiar to me and as it turns out… I corresponded with him on Match.com years ago! So it’s possible. Odd, but possible. At any rate, I looked up Bones on IMDB and it turns out he played Caesar on XENA! THAT’S HOW I KNOW HIM! Either he is an exceptional actor and totally changed his look or I am losing my edge— I immediately spotted him in Bourne Supremacy back in 2004.

    I went to Star Trek last night too! I didn’t think I would like it but I did. It was great! I loved Bones! I was too keen on the whole Spock and Urura thing though. Kind of weird.

    I don’t remember the remake of Dark Shadows but I remember the original. I can remember watching it with my mother when I was a kid.

    Donna, he’s changed. He was only in his 20s when he was Caesar on Xena. He’s gotten puffier now and I think he may end up being jowly.
