Dutch of N - Ha! I am hoping the same thing, but going by the picture, I'd say it's a little suspect.

King - You read my mind. I was feeling very opinionated this morning about Bam Margera and I was appreciating Dan for making me laugh by providing me with mental images of Bam's hissy fit. Now they are all gone. Sad.

insidescoop - Dan did name the movie, Igby Goes Down, which by the way features both Rory and Kieren Culkin. Also, there are 3 other Culkin siblings, although I don't know their names.
