More photos taken in Inverness, CA on November 25th, 2006. Later on in the day we traveled out to the Point Reyes light house. I’ll share more photos from our journey tomorrow.
Inverness, CA. November 25th, 2006.
My name is Jonah Weiland. I kill people … with my camera. You don’t want to fuck with me.
Every six years or so, my birthday lands on Thanksgiving Day. That was the case this year.
When I was a child, I hated when my birthday landed on Thanksgiving – it meant all my friends would be with their families and I had no chance to hang out with them. Certainly a self-fish response, but hey, I was a kid.
When I hit my twenties, I realized how great it was to have my birthday fall on Thanksgiving. It means I get to celebrate my birthday the night before with a bunch of friends and then on my birthday I get to enjoy one of the greatest meals of the year. Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, yams, good wine, pumpkin pie and birthday cake – that’s the best birthday meal there is! This Thanksgiving, it was all about me!
So, Happy Birthday to me! And Happy Thanksgiving to all of you
Interestingly, after my last post in which I took “Studio 60” to task, I watched the latest episode “Nevada Day” and was floored – Sorkin was back! The episode was very engaging and funny. John Goodman as a small town Nevada judge was brilliant. Steven Webber was given some very meaty stuff to play with and, well, came through in spades. “This is a black American Express Card…” His entrances are always classic. Nate Cordry was finally given something to do other than be a sight gag or be angry with his father. All in all, a very promising episode which made me feel like the show had fully gelled for the first time this season.
Now comes word that the show has received a full season commitment from NBC. Fox News ran a rumor that the show was dead and clearly they were wrong. I’m hoping Sorkin writes this whole charade into a future episode – could be a lot of fun.
Congrats to the cast. I was concerned that just as I had a glimmer of hope for the series that it was approaching its demise. Now, we can see if that promise can grow.
Oh, and Aaron – more Steven Webber!
