I didn't even know there was a Gordon Lightfoot Day! How cool! :cool:

I wonder why they didn't make it on his birthday?

Thats a wonderful way to honor the talented and handsome Gordon Lightfoot. I remember seeing him live at a concert with a bunch of friends at the Concord Pavillion around the 1990's. He had the most beautiful voice when he sang, "If You could read my Mind'. It was like if he was transparent and I could see through him.

Even though it wasn't right on his birthday, it's close to his birthday. The letter is dated the 23rd. Did anyone hear anything about that number 23 lately? I saw that Jim Carey last week on Leno talking about that number. Sounded interesting. I'd like to see that movie that is coming out this Friday, the 23rd.
Gordon Meredith Lightfoot = 23 letters. :cool:
I think Jim Carey is on Conan or some talk show tonight too.

[charlene]

Hi Patti, I did see the Leno interview w/ Jim Carrey. It was really interesting about the # 23...

And now, Gordon Meredith Lightfoot... :eek: :rolleyes:

I missed him on Letterman last night. :(

last clip shown

JIM CARREY: His film "The Number 23" opens on February 23rd. Dave asks Jim a basic opening question which Jim answers. He then puts up his hands and says, "Scene." What does that mean . . . "scene"? Jim explains that whenever you take an acting class and you're doing a scene study, you have to "Scene" and make the hand gesture to signal to the rest of the class that the scene is over. If you didn't say "scene", the class may not realize the scene has ended after you stop talking and take a seat. They may think it's still part of the scene. That's understandable, considering we're talking about people who want to be actors, not scientists. For instance, whenever Jim sees that guy James Lipton from the "Actor's Studio", Lipton will ask, "So, when are you going to do my show?" Carrey will answer that he is very busy but will try when his schedule opens up. Jim will then say "scene" to let Lipton know the conversation is over.
In Jim's new film, "The Number 23", he has a few racy sexy scenes with some very lovely actresses. Jim is comfortable with that. He's always been pretty connected with his sexual side. When he was just a kid, he had an interest in painting, specifically this one portrait of a very sexy model with an open tunic. Jim spent hours and hours painting that picture, even dabbling in some finger painting. One look at Mr. Carrey and you can tell this memory still lingers.
And he remembers being asked in school what he wanted to be when he grew up. Everyone else in the class answered the basic "policeman" and "fireman." Jim answered "Ass man." H heard grownups call themselves that so Jim thought that would be a good career. And he studied hard for it. In the 3rd grade, he had a teacher whose backside would wiggle whenever she wrote on the blackboard. Jim demonstrates. He remembers staring at the teacher's butt as if it held military secrets. And then the teacher caught him and demanded, "Jim Carrey, what is going through your mind?" Jim was so traumatized . . . but such a turn on!
And how is Jim's love life? The gossips have him mixing things up with Jenny McCarthy. Yes, Jim is proud to say that he is dating Ms. McCarthy and they have become a Hollywood Power Couple. These same gossip magazines have labeled them "Jiminy." They follow the long line of power couples, joining TomCat and Brangelina and Markopatra. Markopatra? Yes, Marc Anthony and Cleopatra.
Jim was in Miami for the Super Bowl . . and speaking of Miami, Jim does an amusing portrayal of David Caruso on "CSI: Miami." Jim puts on the sunglasses often worn by Caruso, delivers a line, and then leaves the screen scene. Caruso does the same very often on CSI: Miami. Jim performs a few examples of Caruso's acting chops.
Jim Carrey's film, "The Number 23" opens this Friday, the 23rd. Somehow, the number 23 has great significance in our world though few realize it. We see a clip from the film of a disheveled Jim driving the family in the family car. His wife is very concerned and frustrated that Jim and the son are both transfixed on the mysteries of the #23. Down the suburban block Jim sees a dog sitting in the middle of the block. He is convinced that the dog is actually the devil, I think. Jim puts the pedal to the metal and aims right for the dog. The dog does not flinch. Jim then slams on the brakes inches from the dog. The dog never moves; never blinks. Obviously, this dog is no ordinary dog. Even the wife grows suspicious. Eerie. What happens next?

I saw the Carrey appearance on Letterman last night, and at one point Carrey said something like "the number 23 is all over the place". He then held up a card that read 'Jim Carrey + David Letterman'. The two names combined have 23 letters....hence the idea behind my post. I don't find the number 23 to be amazing at all.

[Jesse Joe]

I agree the # 23 is not amazing. But his new movie is called, "The number 23." And it opens in theatres this friday the 23rd...

Superstition thing for him I guess? Im going to have to see that movie. :D :)

[Patti]

I saw the movie. The number #23, whether amazing or not, I'm glad I saw the movie. I really liked it.
Oooops I didn't mean to spell Jim Carrey's last name wrong in my earlier post. I must have gotten the spelling mixed up with Mariah Carrey.
And I wasn't sure which talk show he was going to be on that night, but I saw him on David Letterman. Plus a few other shows after that.

[Patti]

Ooops, I mean Mariah Carey! :D
