A poker buddy of mine played at the same table as Jason Alexander a few years ago at Harrah's AC. My friend said that he was a decent player and gracious with fans (shaking hands, taking pictures, etc.).

My aunt who lives in Chicago saw Vince Vaughn help an elderly woman he did not appear to know out of a taxi. The elderly woman also appeared to be unaware of whom Vince Vaughn was.

My girlfriend is a big fan of chickfila. I always ask her if she wants to go on Sundays. She's onto my tricks nowadays, but she fell for it many times.

I still occasionally tap the brakes when my wife drinks water in the car, causing her to dump it on herself. I did it once on the way to a wedding and she was MAD.

They seem pretty ok as actors and I don't know, maybe slightly pains in the asses as people? I haven't heard anything about Jason Alexander.

And, don't get me wrong, Star Trek and Captain Kirk are awesome, but I wouldn't go saying William Shatner is a great performer or anything.
Oh, I don't know. Shatner is... Shatner. On disc, he's probably the greatest (for certain weird values of the word 'greatest') exponents of Sprechgesang since Rex Harrison. His Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds is of course legendary for all -- or at any rate most of -- the wrong reasons, but his cover of Common People really does have more raw funk and anger and clarity than Jarvis Cocker's original. It's Shatner, so it's funny. But it's also... well, it's quite good, actually. In a weird way.

Shatner's cover of Bohemian Rhapsody is, of course, astonishingly dreadful, but in that respect it's true to the astonishingly dreadful original, and he takes it to the level of 'not very good provincial amateur Shakespeare', which is kind of where the whole thing belongs anyway. Plus he's Captain Kirk, so nobody minds.

Also, Mr Shatner is a novelist. Or at any rate he kindly licensed his name out to a ghostwriter. In the opening scene of this episode of the British-Irish sitcom Father Ted, we find our hero reading -- or rather re-reading -- Mr Shatner's classic Tech Wars.

I cringed and prayed bro in law wouldnt approach Vince, but of course he did... and did so right when the guy got up from the bar and was about to leave. I was pleasantly surprised that he was actually totally cool about it. Had shots with us and chatted with our group for a while before going on his way.

And thats my sick brag yo cool story bro
Can confirm.

Played poker with Vince at the bike and this was right after wedding crashers at his peak and he was very cool/nice. Honestly a just sweet guy, yes sir no sir type of stuff and I was 10 years younger.

Bill Simmons pointed that out in a blog when he was still on page 2. First thing I ever saw Shatner in was a Columbo tv movie.

Spoiler:
He was the murderer.
Spoiler:
Columbo caught him.

LOL!

I need to try to be more creative.

My best so far is several years ago we were driving from Memphis to Vicksburg MS on Hwy 61 through the Mississippi Delta which is flat as a fritter. She kept asking me. "How much farther?" My answer every time was "It's just over the next hill." I thought it so funny that it has become my stock answer to that question whenever she asks.

On road trips whenever we are about to pass a truck carrying hay, I come up with different ways to say "hey", with voice inflections. So "oh hey" like "oh hey I just thought of something" and "hey!" like "hey what the **** are you doing!?". Then when she says "what" I just stare at her, and point at the hay like shes an idiot. Obviously this no longer works but I still do it. every. single. time.

The long game is to flip it one day when you know they are expecting it and don't say ****.

Some every single time road trip favorites: Point out cows in a pasture and say they are outstanding in their field. Ask if they know how many people are dead in the cemetery you are driving by then answer "all of them."

Being easily amused is not that bad.

Alobar,

How often do you find yourself passing hay trucks?

So i've just started trying to learn to play piano/keyboard as a little hobby. I decided to look up what's considered a really difficult piece to master.

Quit often actually. The drive from Phoenix to where I grew up in new mexico, we probably see at least half a dozen on the trip. It's not even that uncommon to see one driving down the interstate here in the city either.

I was going to ask this!

I've spent a reasonable amount of times on country roads and barely noticed hay trucks. Livestock trucks are a different matter.

Rousseau has a good channel. Both Chopin etudes are handled well.

How good do you aim to get?

I'm such a complete novice it's hard to say. Realistically I don't believe I could ever play at that level.

At the moment I'm trying to reproduce Close Cover by Wim Mertens. I'm finding it really challenging but after watching Rousseau it looks like child's play.

I dont know the difficulty of that piece but with 1 to 1.5 hours of practice a day, you can play a decent rendition of the moonlight sonata 3rd movement in 5 years.

The chopin etudes in maybe 7 to 8 and La Campanella in 8 to 9.
