I notice that the lead guy (name? uh...) looks a LOT like Murray? It was scary, considering like half of the people looked vaguely (or striking- ly) like people I know. It was freaky. i suggest everyone go see the movie because of this =). Actually it wasn't bad or anything.. it was a little corny and all, but it was fine. Anyway, whatever.

I notice that the lead guy (name? uh...) looks a LOT like Murray?-clare>> AHHHH! ok, the guy's name is Michael Vartan (son of famous french singer Sophie) and he is also the star of one of my favorite italian movies ever, Fiorile. It's an amazing movie ranking right up there with Cinema Paradiso and Il Postino....beautiful, romantic and a lot of fun if you haooen to speak italian. His name in the movie is Massimo Benedetti/Jean(he plays 2 parts)...which is loads of fun to say and I have been in love with this boy since I first saw the movie in Italian class back in March. If you really like Michael Vartan, look for him in the episode of Friends where Monica wears an eye patch and Chandler lives in a box(he plays the Dr.), the movie the Myth of Fingerprints(yes like the Paul Simon song) co-starring Noah Wyle and the upcoming Madonna movie. And as for the Murray connection...isn't it creepy how everyone I find semiattractive looks the same..I mean, obvious, but still creepy. ANYWAY: GO SEE FIORILE! AND CINEMA PARIDISO AND IL POSTINO!

These groups are prime targets for the companies that advertise on MTV. Früvous fans are, for the most part, not part of that target audience for whatever reason. It's no coincidence that 120 minutes, the only decent show on MTV, airs at 1 AM. Anyway, the point of all that ranting was that a) MTV sucks and b) there's no way to get a Früvous video on TRL. We could try 120 minutes, or VH1...what about MuchMusic, the Canadian MTV? Do they air Früvous vids? As far as TRL goes, there are just too many idiots for us to make a difference ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Jun 1999 04:40:29 GMT From: CheesemonkeyGem Subject: Things you see while changing channels part 2 (or: reruns can >This just seems to be my night *g* While looking to >see what was on >at 7pm, what should be on Prime but the repeat of the >Grumps show from this past January with Jian as one of >the guests. Too bad Friday the >13th isn't on Showcase tonight ;> yup, i caught that too. and i have a weird, interesting (well, i find it interesting) story of how i came to see it. I fall asleep with my tv on every night, and Im one of these freaks who has dreams ALL THE TIME. Also, what usually happens is I'll dream about whats on the tv, or i can follow exactly whats going on on the tv in my sleep subconsiously, and i can have concious thoughts while being subconcious in my sleep. (still with me? cool!) anyhoo, last nite i went to sleep with the Prime station on and this morning i was having this cool dream that Jian was being introduced on a talk show. in this "dream" i realized it was one of those debating shows (ie. grumps :), and i was following the dialougue in my head. i dreamt a little more (jian was still there but now it was something weird and not about the show) and then i woke up about 5 after 7... i looked at the tv and thought "well whaddaya know, what a coinkidink" but the camera wasnt on jian then. THEN it showed jian and i was like WHOA! anyhoo, its pretty freaky and cool that this stuff happens to me, and it was a pretty nice way to wake up! i am convinced that i have some kind of built-in wake- up call in my brain, because later today i went back to sleep with Prime still tuned in, and woke up JUST as alan and sean from Great Big Sea were being interviewed on Bynon. (also, this is a pretty huge coincidence because i dont think ive ever watched Prime in my life) anyhoo, thats my story and im stickin to it! - -jen the freaky cheesemonkey === Before you get in a fight with a person, walk 500 hundred miles in his shoes.

More like a long history of... well... stuff. Do you know how many of my friends who work at an historical site in Kingston have had tourists try to convince them that the Americans won the war of 1812? One friend was really fed up one day, so she asked this guy why, if they won, were we still an independant nation? His response - oh, we didn't want this part. OK, so that has nothing to do with anything, really. But Canadians as a whole tend to get very touchy about musicians and actors etc who feel that they haven't made it unless they are big in the States. It tends to get us very defensive and moody... well, as much as Canadians can be! :) But hey, it's one of the few things we have! :) That and maple syrup. But then, Canadian pride and nationalism is a relatively new thing... And as for the CDs you mentioned... GBS and the Worms... yes, true that they were release first / only here.
