So Tom makes me listen to many repetitions of the Buffy musical episode, “Once More with Feeling,” which he got turned on to by our “friend” Brett (thanks, Brett ;P ). And while I’m listening I realize that the guy singing the part of Sweet, the demon, sounds like the Cat (Danny John-Jules) of Red Dwarf fame. So, I go on trusty IMDB (www.imbd.com) to see if I’m right…I’m not, he’s a guy named Hinton Battle. BUT I look down at Hinton Battle’s filmography and what do I see…he DID play the Cat in the short lived American version of Red Dwarf (which I’ve never seen). The result, I’m both right and wrong and don’t you love the Internet!
Danny John-Jules fun fact. He played the part of a doo wop singer in Little Shop of Horrors, one of my all time fav. movies. I’m going to have to get it again and watch for him.
On the life front, we had a nice trip to Crusades this weekend. Atlantia won (although it was close) thanks to the combined talents of all our martial artists and artisans. Tom MIT’ed and seemed to have fun. Our friend Gavin fenced and had a good time. I helped out at the newcomer’s table and went tent flap shopping (no windows on SCA merchants’ stalls) and had a pretty good time. The weather was nice and we got to stop at IKEA near Baltimore, yay!
Little sister Anne’s b-day (A-day) was on Saturday, so Happy A-day to her.
