Chris Marquette Message Board

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what he does with all this acclaim.  After "Titanic" DiCaprio tried to do interesting work and not rely solely on his teenybopper fanbase.  I hope "RPatz":rolleyes: does that.  Then maybe you'll acquire a little respect for him.

Carl Rove died suddenly this afternoon at Arcadia General Hospital following a collapse at his workplace.  He was 57.

Carl, a life-long Arcadia resident, had been employed in recent years as a dispatcher for the Arcadia Sheriff's Department.  He was, for many years, head night janitor for the Arcadia Police Department where his dedication to duty and friendly demeanor endeared him to all those who worked with him.  Supervisor and former chief of police William Girardi had this to say, "Carl Rove was one of the finest men I ever worked with.  An exceptionally hard worker, he always had a kind word for anyone who needed it.  He was a great source of strength and encouragement, and a calming influence in a workplace often fraught with tension and difficulty.  He will be sorely missed by all those who knew him.  My wife and I send our heartfelt condolences to Adam and the rest of Carl's family."

Carl is survived by his son, Adam Rove, also of Arcadia; his sister, Louisa Rove Tillerman and husband, Armin, of Bucks County, Pennsylvania; his nephew James Callahan and wife, Susan, also of Bucks County; and great-nephews Hunter, Zachary, and Jonah Callahan.  He is also survived by his sister-in-law, Margaret MacCready Shaw, of Boca Raton, Florida; nephew Craig Shaw and wife, Donna, of Charlotte, North Carolina; and great-niece Stephanie Shaw.

He is preceded in death by his beloved wife of 24 years, Elizabeth MacCready Rove; and his parents, Thomas Rove and Eileen Griffin Rove.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, May 8, from 2-6:00 p.m., and Sunday, May 9, from 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. at Hogan Funeral Chapel.  Funeral services will be held at 4:00 p.m. Monday, May 10, at Hogan Funeral Chapel with burial to follow at Fair Oaks Cemetery.  Afterwards friends are invited to stop by, raise a glass, and share memories of Carl at Johnny O'Herlihy's Irish Restaurant and Pub.

The family has requested that, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made in Carl's name to either the Arcadia Law Enforcement Benevolent Fund, the Hogan County Suicide Prevention Hotline, or the Maryland Mental Health Association.

I don't know enough about "Avatar" to have much curiosity about it.  I'm sure I'll see the DVD eventually.  I'm not a big sci-fi person, for one thing.  But I usually like James Cameron's work, so I'll give it a shot.

What I like about Pattinson is that he seems to be having the time of his life.  It's like he knows he's the luckiest SOB on the planet and he's gonna enjoy the ride for as long as it lasts.  That's always fun to watch.  UNTIL...he starts getting into typical young-actor excesses like destroying cars, hotel rooms, etc; abusing various substances; being caught with Hollywood Blvd. hookers; and basically taking all the success for granted, like it's no more that his due.  So far, I'm okay with him.

I've seen "They All Laughed"!  It was really cute.  I used to love Colleen Camp, she was hilarious.  I think that movie got lost because of Dorothy Stratten's murder.  Not the best publicity in the world for a romantic comedy.

I don't know if John and Jason Ritter ever did anything together or not.  I hope so.  I know that when Jason was a toddler he appeared in the opening credits (with Joyce DeWitt) bottle feeding a goat at a petting zoo.  I don't know if playing a baby at a petting zoo constitutes acting if you actually WERE a baby at a petting zoo.

I'll have to think about John Cleese.:/

Piper Laurie was in "Children of a Lesser God" with Marlie Matlin
who was in "Picket Fences" with Fyvush Frankel
who was in "Boston Public" with...

Ben Gazzara?

Brenda Fricker was in "So I Married An Ax Murderer" with Alan Arkin
who was in "Little Miss Sunshine" with Paul Dano
who was in "The Girl Next Door" with...

Michael Caine?

I just remembered that she was in that thing about Guyana.  With Powers Booth.  Who was in "Deadwood" with Timothy Olyphant.  Who was in "The Girl Next Door" with...

How about Dyan Cannon?

See if you can do it without "The Dead Girl". :doh:

I'm sure there are lots of shorter ways, but "Cookie's Fortune" is one of my favorite movies, so:

Courtney B. Vance was in "Cookie's Fortune" with Glenn Close
who was in "Damages" and "Something About Amelia" with Ted Danson
who was in "Gulliver's Travels" with Mary Steenburgen
who was in "Joan of Arcadia" with...

Greta Scacchi?

I watched an old movie I had on tape yesterday that I haven't watched in YEARS.  And it answered this 6 degrees.  So, there you go:

Zero Mostel was in "The Hot Rock" with Paul Sand
who was in "Joan of Arcadia" with...

How about...(this is the hardest part, IMO):/... William Atherton

I like the real guy, though.  Taking paternity leave during?  That's a real new-age PM!  Can you imagine Dubya or Nixon giving up a few weeks in office to change "nappies"?
