Jill Clayburgh is the poor man's Blythe Danner

Until Ms. Clayburgh gets herself a grand-daughter and names her "Banana," the advantage will remain Ms. Danner's.

Quantum Leap is the poor man's Greatest American Hero

I agonized over this one. I really loved Quantum Leap, but Robert Culp, a great costume and catchy theme song decided this entry for me.

That, and the Man-Perm was less creepy than Scott Bakula dressed as a woman.

Dan Futterman is the poor man's Paul Rudd

Poor William Ragsdale.
Poor Lance Guest.
Poor Gremlins dude.

Man perms are the poor man's women's cornrows

I think of these things so you don't have to.

Andrew Bird is the poor man's Damien Rice

...and that is a damn shame.

So do yourself a favor and buy a CD from Mr. Bird.

Or go see him play.

Elizabeth Ashley is the poor man's Brenda Vaccaro (is the poor man's Jessica Walter)

"Two bits, four bits, six bits, a peso. All those for Zorro, stand up and say so."

Robert Mitchum is the poor man's William Holden

When I was a kid, I thought the guy from Stalag 17 was the same guy from Cape Fear.


I'd like to say hello to Todd, Vinnie, Bill & Christian who was there to watch me drink last night like I was William Holden. I've done irreperable damage to my vital organs, and for that I thank you.

Pia Zadora is the poor man's E.G. Daily

Strictly career-wise. Financially speaking, I think Pia can buy a small country.

Keith Carradine is the poor man's Peter Fonda

I'm just guessing that Petey's paycheck is bigger.

Rachel Weisz is the poor man's Kate Winslet

Ask me again tomorrow. This could change.

Jeff Daniels is the poor man's Jeff Bridges

So the PW and I got hitched, cocktail party-style. A good time was had by all. The honeymoon took us through (in order) CO, SD, WY, UT, AZ & NM. Plenty of pics and deep thoughts to share, just not now.

I highly recommend skipping Duchesne (doo-SHAYN), UT if you can at all help it. I may have mentioned it before, but it bears repeating.
(although, I did see the craziest looking shooting star there)

Jeff Daniels AND Jeff Bridges both rock. JB just probably commands a higher salary.

And he plays the ukulele.

Small Change got rained on with his own .38

We're back, and we're exhausted.

6 states
15 days
3,597 miles
millions of dead bugs on the windshield

More tomorrow.

Hwy 191 is the poor man's Hwy 191

Depending on where you drive in Wyoming.

We're in Moab now. Going rafting in an hour.

It's been a great honeymoon so far.

Oh, avoid staying overnight or eating Duchesne, UT at all costs. I cannot stress this enough.
