Sometimes you see things that are just so out of place that it messes with your head. For example if you ever go to a strip club with your boys and you see a stripper that you know from somewhere. And then you realize that you went to school with the person before the breast implants. When you think of this, I am sure a lot of you think immediately to Varsity Blues where James Van Der Beek and his football buddies go out the night before a game and the whole "hot for teacher" thing plays out perfectly. Their teacher is a stripper at the club and after a much too short second of embarrassment she is down with dancing for all her students at some shady bar in the middle of the country.
Well, it just doesn't always work like that, for those are the movies. I had this feeling last night that something just wasn't right when I was watching the Sopranos. I had been feeling uneasy for the last few weeks and I couldn't quite place my finger on it. Then last night there was a scene where a couple of thugs from Tony's crew took a security guard from the docks and smashed his legs with his own security baton. Here they are smashing the hell out of this guy with the baton and taunting him. The camera closes in on this guy who is doing the most smashing and it hits me. I know that dude, and I start laughing.
None other than Vinnie Delpino is smashing the legs of this guy. The actor's name is Max Casella. Still not ringing any bells? Vinnie was the feeble sidekick for Doogie Housser MD on that show that I watched when I was a kid. You know Neal Patrick Harris plays a super smart kid who becomes a doctor at a very young age. Vinnie is his best friend and he is on again and off again with his young sweetheart Wanda. He types in his life lessons every week in his computer journal with that crazy music playing in the background. It's like a more serious version of Mr. Belvedere.

Disconcerting indeed, am reminded of my own experience (it's all about me in this solipsistic world) with the finalist's house on American Idol and an old girlfriend on Real Sex. Freaky.

What was the dead bodies in the Kirtland barn thing?

some crazies who broke off of the Mormon church got involved with some sacrifices and things if my memory serves me correctly. I was pretty young, but I remember they found people buried in the barn and it was part of this cultish thing that broke off of the Mormon church.
Here, I found this.

I think its sad when the deeds of someone who breaks off a group get associated with or cause suspicion to the group...like Mormons. Strangly, the fact that people hold them to such a high standard I think says a lot for their religion.
