Freddie does a super job. Not sure why he's working after he won the Wonka chocolate factory...

But acting is what actors do. Anthony Simcoe sounds a foot shorter and much less serious in person than he does onscreen in Farscape. It isn't offensive, much less a crime, to be able to impersonate others exactly.

Maybe Hank needs to come with me to Shivm General Store, in Cape Canaveral, Florida, where I will introduce him to a man exactly like Apu: hardworking, dedicated to his store, robbery survivor. There is no shame in that depiction.

I'd bet Azaria is simply self-flagellating in order to keep working in a company town teeming with social justice idiots.

Do the critics of his performance as Apu think he took a job away from an Indian-American actor? Or that he was portraying Indian-Americans in a negative light? Or are they upset with the stereotype of an Indian-American working in a convenience store, reminiscent of Joe Biden's, "You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking."

Hey, Crid? iMDB is your friend. Freddie was Charlie Bucket, who won the chocolate factory in the movie of the same name. See, if that had been real (it's not, I'm pretending here) he'd be Charlie and rich and not be Freddie and have to act.

Perhaps I should be more obvious just for you. Or nearby cleavage has distracted you from tenuousity. One hopes!

Israel attacks at 50 meters below ground.

The Iranian official stressed that such an operation takes years, saying "the design of the enemy was very beautiful."

Be clear

> *snickers in Persian*

Here's an interesting passage:

Ali Rabiei, the spokesperson for the Iranian government, stated on Tuesday that the attack was "not an external attack" and that a "traitor" has been identified, adding that "the necessary measures are being taken."

Via Kat Mangu-Ward, a little something for those who were told there would be no math.
