So, we're discussing, in our deep dark headquarters and in between scheming to take over the world, who should play us when the Hollywood film comes out.
See below the fold for the choice made for me...
It so has to be Tom Selleck. The younger one, of course.

I don't know if you have seen these, but Florida Orange Juice started a new ad campaign featuring commercials with the voice of Tom Selleck. (Magnum PI does like his orange juice.)
Anyway, the commercials show a beaker into which is being poured OJ. Tom Selleck then proceeds to say:
"Food…

Randy Olson is a Harvard ('84) trained marine biologist with field experience on the Great Barrier Reef, in the Antarctic, the US Virgin Islands, and elsewhere. He even spent a little time with Jacques Cousteau.
But an extensive career in marine biology was not to be.

I thought I'd try to build some suspense for a future post (that, and I want an excuse to post some nice pictures). So, I'll just leave you with these clues:
1. Tom Selleck.2. A heart the size of a mini-cooper.
And these images:
What am I going to write about? You'll have to see... or go ahead,…
So, I’ll be the first to admit it. This blog is dead. I’ve noticed it happening to a number of sites I used to read on a regular basis, as the authors found themselves overwhelmed and occupied with many other things--school, work, life--chaos. Yet, what I’m facing is a little different. This blog…
Uh huh. As one of my psychology profs once said, "We all live in our own private fantasy world". That was before blogging, of course. :)
Oh, OK. The fat, older Selleck then...
No, no...John Denver. I'll get the spade, you look up where he's buried...
Could you give us some advance warning when you're about to take over this world? I need to find another world and that may take a few days.
I hope you don't mind if I skip the movie when it first comes out in theaters? I'll wait for it to be on TV (free).
Well, my scenes so far appear to be -
FAT GUY IN GORILLA SUIT SITTING AT COMPUTER: Chuckles. Frowns. Types vigorously. Laughs.
so I don't expect it to be all that popular at the cinemas.

For some reason, this made me think of one of my favourite little Aussie movies The Dish, so it would either be Sam Neill or, perhaps, the actor who played the mayor - or maybe even the one who played PM.
Thank God! At least this time the mental image has something on! (What? No chains?)
I can see it now. . ."Leonardo DiCaprio plays a tortured Philosopher trying desperately to define just what the hell a species is in this riveting psychological thriller. . ."
LOL! Really.
I think a philosopher's descent into madness would be less interesting to see than to read. There's a reason why Nietzsche hasn't been the subject of a popular film biofic.
Why not Pierce Brosnan? He's not playing James Bond anymore, so he should be available.
Might be a credibility gap... wrong accent.
