:O

Just got a wire story that John Spencer, who plays Leo McGarry on West Wing just died of a heart attack.

Story's not online yet, from what I can see...

Here's a snippet of the article.

[edit]: I've taken down the article as it is now up online - don't want to get caught w/ copyright infringement or anything.

Does anyone else think she should have her license taken away?

Seriously... four infractions this year! Get her off the frigging road!

As a side note... does anyone else find the headline of this AP article funny. Is it really news worthy that Michelle Rodriguez paid her traffic tickets? Granted... I did read the article, didn't I? ;)

Star of ABC's Lost, Michelle Rodriguez, star pays traffic tickets

So... I haven't blogged in weeks

& never did come through w/ that "surprise" or sumpin sumpin for your listening pleasure... I'll try to post something tonight. I was originally going to put up Hollaback Girl from the Gwen show back in November, but haven't ripped it yet. Went to a radio X'mas pop show last week & I have ripped that already, so I'll put that up instead.

Anyway, quick post as this will be an easy one. As much I think that the Golden Globes are a complete sham... I'll still tune in & make my own predictions.

Brokeback Mountain is making a lot of buzz this year & it's a movie that I've been interested in watching since the production was announced nearly 2 yrs ago. I think it has a great chance of sweeping. Who do you think is going to go home w/ a golden phallic-type statuette?

Picture, Drama: Brokeback Mountain, The Constant Gardener, Good Night, and Good Luck, A History of Violence, Match Point.

Actress, Drama: Maria Bello, A History of Violence; Felicity Huffman, Transamerica; Gwyneth Paltrow, Proof; Charlize Theron, North Country; Ziyi Zhang, Memoirs of a Geisha.
ed. note: I would LOVE if Felicity Huffman won & I think she may be able to give Charlize a run for the $, but hands down... it's going to be Charlize. She's a media darling.

Actor, Drama: Russell Crowe, Cinderella Man; Philip Seymour Hoffman, Capote; Terrence Howard, Hustle & Flow; Heath Ledger, Brokeback Mountain; David Strathairn, Good Night, and Good Luck.

Picture, Musical or Comedy: Mrs. Henderson Presents, Pride & Prejudice, The Producers, The Squid and the Whale, Walk the Line.

Actress, Musical or Comedy: Judi Dench, Mrs. Henderson Presents; Keira Knightley, Pride & Prejudice; Laura Linney, The Squid and the Whale; Sarah Jessica Parker, The Family Stone; Reese Witherspoon, Walk the Line.

Actor, Musical or Comedy: Pierce Brosnan, The Matador; Jeff Daniels, The Squid and the Whale; Johnny Depp, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; Nathan Lane, The Producers; Cillian Murphy, Breakfast on Pluto; Joaquin Phoenix, Walk the Line.
ed. note: Wow... this category is definitely a mixed bag!

Supporting Actress: Scarlett Johansson, Match Point; Shirley MacLaine, In Her Shoes; Frances McDormand, North Country; Rachel Weisz, The Constant Gardener; Michelle Williams, Brokeback Mountain.
ed. note: Not making a call on this one... I think 3 of the 5 have a good chance

Supporting Actor: George Clooney, Syriana; Matt Dillon, Crash; Will Ferrell, The Producers; Paul Giamatti, Cinderella Man; Bob Hoskins, Mrs. Henderson Presents.

Director: Woody Allen, Match Point; George Clooney, Good Night, and Good Luck; Peter Jackson, King Kong; Ang Lee, Brokeback Mountain; Fernando Meirelles, The Constant Gardener; Steven Spielberg, Munich.
