I've been saying it for years (GFW can document exactly how many). The guy is handsome and seems personable enough, but a great actor he is not. As such, he is not going to be offered the kinds of films that the better actors get offered. I've been around long enough to watch his faithful fans get excited about a movie based on what it sounds like on paper, only to be disappointed when it doesn't garner him the kind of praise and notoriety they think he deserves.
He has been in this business long enough that by now, if he had a lot of talent, it would have been tapped and he would have the connections to put that talent on display in better films.
Honestly? He's about the caliber of a soap opera actor. He should be on a soap instead of making feature films. His melodramatic acting style would fit in perfectly, housewives could swoon over him daily, and his picture could still appear on supermarket tabloids. It would be a perfect fit. -

Can't disagree. Hey gretchen, how are you dealing with the flooding & destruction? We are bracing for a high wind warning here in the Seattle area. We have our generator ready. -

Did fine here, though there was significant flooding and prolonged power outages and some wind damage around this county and surrounding counties. We were out of school for four days. Yesterday we tried to go to the State Fair in Raleigh and there were so many detours and closed roads that we finally gave up and came home (don't know enough of the alternate routes and back roads). We saw a lot of flooded areas during our little adventure. It's amazing to think the storm was a week ago and there are still places that are flooded. It's a lot like Hurricane Floyd was in 99. We just had too much rain in the week before Matthew arrived, and the rivers couldn't take anymore.
I saw that you guys are getting a storm over there on the "left coast"! I hope everything is okay! Smart to have a generator! I need to get one! -

Glad to hear that you weren't in danger. We got lucky and the storm bypassed us. Our generator has helped keep us warm in the past and provides minimal comforts (coffee maker, microwave, one tv), but it is a small one. It's a must where we live in the sticks. One storm left us without power for nine days,

Glad you didn't have to deal with the storm. 9 days, wow. I think I've been 5 days without power, and that was enough for me! It was hot too. Ugh. I think that was after Hurricane Irene.
Today was a sad day. Had to put my oldest dog to sleep. It was time, and he slipped away while I was hugging his face, rubbing his ears, and kissing the top of his sweet head. That's only the second pet I've ever taken to have put down, and I was so upset with the first dog I couldn't stay. I always kind of regretted that and vowed to stay with this one. I'm glad I did. He was a good boy. -

I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. I think many of us have been through that difficult decision to let a pet go to stop the pain and suffering. It is good to stay till the end, if you can handle it. Hugs.
