Rick James, RIP
Read his final interview here.
Scrubs
Zach Braff from Scrubs has a blog about his first film (as writer and director, plus acting in it) Garden State... "Today was the second day of Scrubs. I shot my first scene with Heather Graham. Without giving anything away, it involved me being sopping wet and close to naked. Sort of an odd way to meet someone and get to know them. But that's what makes Scrubs fun, everyday I show up I have no idea what kind of bizarre thing is gonna happen. Tomorrow we're blowing up a car. Now that's a good day job..."
Methodman is in it (Garden State), check his interview on the site under Making Garden State. And watch the one called Ice. Some quality canine acting. Heh heh.
There's an entertainingly trite slice of video over on TVNZ's site, a report from Breakfast by Jay Harkness on the 'new phenomenon of blogging', looking at the impact and asking will it last. Look for a clip called 'The rantings and ravings of bloggers'. Amazingly, they got throught the entire piece without mentioning Salaam Pax. Or famous bloggers like Michael Moore or major media blogs like on the NY Times, The Listener (NZ), or Russell Brown's various blog activities...

// 'new phenomenon of blogging'
particularly ironic considering that when I went a-hunting for said piece (could not, for the life of me, find it), I turned up half a dozen other news items about blogging on the TVNZ site dating back to 2002, including the 'beginners guide' from April of last year. The last sentence of that latter item is says it all...
"It's a phenomenon that's not on the mainstream radar quite yet, but it will be in six months."
Heh. Make that a year (and some).
sorry, its disappeared... I tried searching for it too, ended up looking at lots of pages that said 'internal server error' translates as 'our site is useless but it looks pretty when it works'.
oh, this is good.
Go to TVNZ's website, type in blog in the search field and you get the following results ...
1. Haiti
2. Suicide Bombers
3. Human Embryos
4. Breast Cancer
Huh?
