Just holding down the fort until NYMary stops by with the real thing...
You see, that's Wayne Fontana of the Mindbenders...it's a little joke because NYM usually puts up a Wednesday Wayne, i.e., a Fountains of Wayne clip.
Get it -- Wayne Wednesday? Wednesday Wayne?
Oh, never mind....

COMPLETELY OT and apropos of nothing, A Friend weighs in on "I'm Not There." Thought you might get a chuckle:
"I saw “I’m Not There” last night and concur with (Buckner) that it’s a religious experience. The fact that it got made is astounding. It’s basically a language made in an untranslatable language for a culture that is dying and comprises a minute fraction of the world’s population. A complete tour de force and the only movie during which I had to restrain myself from jumping up in the theatre and screaming “It’s a fucking ostrich! It’s fucking perfect.” The only thing that allowed me to get anything resembling a decent night’s sleep it the knowledge that immediately after the movie came out 15 or 20 people quit their jobs and left their families to start annotating it."
