Saw someone else famous last Thursday. This time: Julianna Margulies, TV star best known for playing Nurse Hathaway on E.R., and who recently appeared on Scrubs.
She was walking around Yaletown, and I must have been looking fine, because she came back by me for a second look.
Part of the fun of Vancouver celebrities is guessing why they’re in town. Margulies might be here filming a movie that was originally titled, I kid you not, Snakes on a Plane. Damn, that’s a good title.
“What’s great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you know that the President drinks Coke, Liz Taylor drinks Coke, and just think, you can drink Coke, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good. Liz Taylor knows it, the President knows it, the bum knows it, and you know it.”
