So I went to knitting class today. It was a lot of fun. The knitting cafe was buried deep in the Village, further south than I tend to go, but I found it after a little bit of exploring. The cafe itself was just adorable. Their motto is the title of this post. There was a counter where they sold brownies, tea and other goodies (my attention was caught and held by the nice, thick, chocolatey brownies). Two other women showed up for the class.

I didn't start liking JC until his later movies. Loved him in Grosse Pointe Blank and Must Love Dogs.

Did he take off the pants, and then leave them for the PA? Or was he still wearing them?
GROSS!!
By the way, Ferrill will be Crockett in the new Miami Vice movie with Jamie Foxx as Tubbs. Yes, it's Michael Mann directing it, so yes, the Zombieslayers will be going to see it.
I don't have much use for Colin Farrell. Too much of a womanizer.
