I HEART COLIN FIRTH

I believe I have been grossly misunderstood.  I feel like Dave Barry when he had to print an apology and practically a retraction for his statements regarding Neil Diamond's lack of poetic depth.

Let me just say it for the record:

I LOVE COLIN FIRTH!


As a matter of fact, if you Anglophiles go back and read my previous post, you would see, indeed, I said several very complimentary things about Mr. Firth!  Is there anything better than a rainy day with five hours to kill watching Pride and Prejudice?  NO!  There is not.

But....I beg you Redcoat sympathizers to be on alert!  He is a tool of a government who wants what they just can't get over losing....US!   You are being lulled by his coy smile and his humble conversation...but he is a tyrannical trap!

I am telling you...the only thing you have to gain from falling for this ploy is lower to NO orthodontic costs!  It isn't worth it!

Wake up people!!  WAKE UP!  The British are coming!

You'd better heart Colin Firth, or I'm gonna come over and kick your butt!

...or maybe I'll just tie you up and (more importantly) gag you, and drag you off to see The King's Speech. :)

Perhaps I wouldn't be so easily lulled if we had one, just one American figure with a genuinely coy smile and humble conversation.

Charlie Sheen? don't think so...

Christian Bale? uh, uh...

Johnny Depp? he defected to France!

Matt Damon!

Ahem! Christian Bale....He is English! Uck.

Shirin said...

Okay. You got me, Jill. Christian Bale ACTS so American, I forgot he was English! ha ha!

SO have you been to see "The King's Speech??? He does a great job (not for kids as he uses some obscenity to try to get some of his "stuck" words out). I went and saw it by myself the other day which was just what I needed!
