Some random narrator on tv said this last weekend-

"Today on Wild About Animals, we'll take you to one of the largest wildlife reserves in Africa, where this incredible landscape is filled with some incredible animals! You'll see herds of wildebeasts, zebra, antellope, and the biggest of all land mammals: the giant African elephant!"

But right after he said "antellope" I changed a setting with the remote and the volume dropped out for a split second. So what I heard was this-

"...and the biggest of all land mammals: the giant 'frickin elephant!"

I tried to replicate it a few times but to no avail.

"That's just a straight shooter with upper management written all over him."

I don't really remember what I had against "Scrubs" when it started. I guess I thought it was annoying based on what little I saw of it. But over the last few years I had a lot of people tell me it was funny and that I'd like it, so I recently decided to give it a whirl. Thanks to the DVD/TiVo combination (I owe a big debt of gratitude to Dave Zatz in particular) Amy and I have watched the first 16 episodes of the first season and we're surprised by how much we like it (though there are aspects I still find annoying). Further, those that told me I should watch it specifically for Dr. Cox's character were definitely right. He's played by John C. McGinley and I knew I recognized him from several things but for some reason I could never place him. Today I looked it up.


For starters, he was one of Ed Harris' marines in "The Rock"...






I don't really remember him, but he was head of the SWAT team in "Seven" "Se7en" (sorry)...




He was also the other crook with Jack Baer in "Nothing to Lose"...











And I was shocked that I wasn't able to make this connection, he was one of the Bobs in "Office Space"...






That one kind of baffled me. Anyway, I was originally going to send Amy a simple email asking "Did you realize Dr. Cox was one of the Bobs?" But Jukkity has been pretty light on the content lately, so I thought I'd throw up this bloated post.
