Mmmmmm Pie...

Ok...I'm pretty sure this post is gonna get confusing, so I'm warnin' y'all now.

It was originally gonna be about spending last Wednesday at Shiny Sarahs, and how we had a lovely girly day eating far too much Cherry Garcia, deliberating the wonders of home made cherry pie and watching Truly Madly Deeply followed by our much anticipated Mini-Monk-a-thon; but then somehow I got side-tracked.

I'm not sure what it was...or even what I was looking for in the first place (something to do with pie I'm sure =/ ) ...but somehow I stumbled into this random website from a link somewhere. Now that site isn't particularly important in the grand scheme of things (it's not about pie either), but I happened to notice a photo of the site owner posing with a familiar face - actor, Scott Grimes.

Now there's a backstory to why in particular this photo caught my eye. The long and the short of it is, due to Stanley Cup excitement and my recent obsessive complusive watching of Monk, I took the head-staggers a couple of nights ago to re-watch Mystery Alaska (in which Monk star Jason Gray-Stanford plays Bobby Michan)...and this guy Scott Grimes played Brian 'Birdie' Burns in it. I guess a lot of people will know him better from the likes of ER and such, but for me it's always gonna be the hockey movie.

Anyhoo...my curiosity elevated slightly, I continued to nosey on round this site a little and came across some photos taken on the set of one of Scott's music videos, in which I noticed another familiar face - Jason Gray-Stanford. It appears he played the lead character in the vid; I guess the two have stayed friends from back in the day. Nice.

Anyways, you can watch the video HERE in a nice little window, and may I also recommend going to Scott's My Space and listening to his song 'Livin' On The Run' which totally reminds me of my last couple of years of high school when my best friends big bro would sit and play me a variety of bon jovi songs on his beat up old acoustic geetar =) I dunno, it just has that old skool summery vibe to it *happy sigh* good times =)

A little confusing but only because I'm unable to hit all the links this time because the dial-up connection I'm using right now is way too slow to even try.....

This post reminds me of someone and there way of tangenting(new word)on about things....I think that would be myself so rock on baby....I miss talking on a more frequent basis, see ya jo, later....

Yaaaay! Jason Gray Stanford! He's gots a beard... but no pie. I feel slightly cheated. But it's all good....

Isn't the guy at the start of that vid that guy Mickey Jones who played Pete, one of Tim's contruction worker friends in Home Improvement amongst numerous other things?? *only knew his name thanks to the blessing that is IMDB*

...also as a side note...the random site I stumbled across with the pics from the vid belonged to the lady in it with the curlers in her hair. She's been in lots of stuff too.
