I've always taken time to stare very closely at things. I noticed something the other day, so I took this picture for you all to see.

Interesting ! I had to yank mine out (Alaska) and found 2 lines of microprint & 2 border overprints.

I laughed to the point of tears. That REALLY amused me. Holy crap man. Where'd that thought come from? Some cobwebs in your memory had to be cleared out to access that reference.

Wow, I pulled it out to see for myself and it's there. It's sooooooo fine, the print, that it's crazy. Excellent find!

Does anyone realize this is just a ploy to get us to wish armisiano happy birthday next week?

Some one in Vancouver painted a huge Waldo on top of the roof of their building so when google updates it's satelite images you'll be able to search for him in Vancouver.

Cool!
I went to a site about it:
http://www.nowpublic.com/culture/wheres-waldo-vancouver-4
I then went to google maps and found the building in less then 5 min WITHOUT waldo. Google maps has not uploaded it yet.
I noticed that it was a 4 lane (no median) road, commercially zoned, with a back access ally dividing the block. There are also distinctive 'purple-ish' trees, not to mention the available parking behind the buildings next door, and the 'hole' in the building to the north across the street.
In my opinion they should not have released such a wide arial shot of the rooftops and surrounding area. Makes it easy.
If you want to KNOW where it is go HERE. (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=823066998050443105,49.268050,-123.147920%3B16864749127497332374,49.268107,-123.150339&saddr=W+4th+Ave+%4049.268050,+-123.147920&daddr=49.268107,-123.150339&sll=49.268107,-123.150339&sspn=0.009899,0.01605&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=18)
Its google map directions between one end of the block to the other
If you DONT want to know DONT click the link. :)

I'm looking at it and trying to figure where in the city it might be, I'm think that street is 2nd Ave or maybe Broadway.

Dammit! Yes, I did realize this. I was looking and I saw the expiration date and I thought "Holy crap, his birthday is coming up. I will make note of that." Then I got carried away finding the small text on my own license and forgot to mention it. Thanks for beating me to it.

Yeah, I just figured it was around that area. I clicked to see where it was. I was close.

It absolutely is...I would know. I think the point was to prevent people like Tommy from making fake IDs and getting away with it. By the way, I know this is off topic, but Tom, you said you are trying to focus on your acting career, correct? I am doing the same. I am trying to decide how to market myself at the screening: writer/actor, actor/writer, writer, or actor. I guess it depends on what I want to focus on...
Go back to your business, sorry to throw that in...

If anyone has a license from Virginia, there is microprint forming the black outside boarder but I cannot read it. Taking a picture doesn't work either. I wonder how effective it really is if you cannot even read it!

Jason, did you see "Farce of the Penguins"? :)
Jason Ramsey

I think I just saw a preview for that the other day, actually...

Bwahahahahaha! The Gray Team strikes again!
I never saw Farce of The Penguins. Strange, right? You would think I had all the penguin films stored in my special vault. Somewhere around Happy Feet I decided that the Hollywood elites were scamming me by forcing me to buy and watch the same exact movie over and over again with different titles. Now. there is a Penguin Conspiracy for you! Am I right?*
*When I ask this question, the answer is always "yes." Just so you know.

Alright, Tommy, will do. It is about time I made another Blockbuster run, anyway...
Don't laugh, I like doing it ol' skool! [/gangsta]
