This is my old Carte Orange, a Paris subway and bus pass holder. I'm guessing this is circa 1989, when I was in my late twenties and had a lot of hair. Too long in front to be a mullet, too long in back to be a real pompadour, it's my opinion in retrospect that I look like a douchebag. Not as much as in those press passes, though.
No, no, you've got a Kurt Russell's cousin thing going on in this picture. You're not calling Kurt Russell a douchebag, are you?
ReplyDeleteYou look like a troublemaker.
ReplyDeleteA photo like that will get you on a lot of watch lists today.
Of course, just about any photo of you on a credential will probably do the same.
You still look like a trouble maker.

Kurt Russell is a douchebag. Yes, I am saying that.
ReplyDeleteSnake is no douchebag. Take it back! Take it back!
ReplyDeleteI'll just say that in my single encounter with him and Goldie Hawn I came away with the impression "double douchebags."
ReplyDeleteThen it may make you happy to know that I once made Goldie Hawn cry after a rough cut screening of SWING SHIFT by praising Christine Lahti while standing out by our cars, but not mentioning Goldie's performance. Goldie was standing with us at the time.
ReplyDelete(Unfortunately this event may have led to the radical recut of the movie that trimmed back Christine's and Ed Harris's roles to beef up Goldie's and Kurt's parts.)
I swear I didn't mean anything by it. I just assumed Goldie was a big star and didn't need complements. But I had never seen Christine in anything and thought she was the best thing in the movie. More people soon joined us and expressed similar opinions. I got in my car and a few seconds later Goldie stomped by and got in her car, which was parked in front of mine, and she burst into tears.
I felt bad for her.
Now don't you feel bad for calling her a douchebag?
Just another tale from the Hollywood crypt....

I remember that story. I still maintain that she's a douchebag, along with Kurt.
ReplyDeleteHey, TL, you didn't really think you were gonna change Scott's mind, didja?

Nah. Scott knows a douchebag when he spots one.

And Goldie refused to do any laugh-In reunion specials or say something nice about Rowan or Martin when they croaked, and martin, at least, was much beloved.
