Gilbert in Gilmore Girls
Now Playing: Something on WGN with Selma Blair in it

One of my favorite shows, Gilmore Girls on today on ABC Family I think. Heard the jarring sound of my own name from Lorelai Gilmore as she spoke to Luke. (Those would be character names and not the real names of the actors involved) A wooden lawn goat, not even a whole goat but the front end of the wooden goat which was named "Gilbert" as in "Gilbert the Goat" had suffered a terrible weed wacker injury and was beheaded. Gilbert was examined by Luke who said that he could fix it good as new. Nobody would ever know that Gilbert had ever been headless. The name Gilbert danced around for a minute which was cool. Don't hear Gilbert that often. Also of note, and you wouldn't know this unless you actually watched a number of the episodes of this show, he had his tool box with him also named by Lorelai. I mention this because the tool box is named "Bert" which is also a name I've been called. So it was a double Gilbert reference.

Since I'm on the subject of the Gilmore Girls it's very odd when I think about it. The character Lorelai, played by Lauren Graham is of course a beautiful woman. After watching and enjoying the show for some time I saw a movie that she was in. Keanu Reeves was in it as well and in fact Lauren was the girlfriend to Keanu. The thing was, she was in either a bikini or skimpy underwear and you know, it was jarring to see. Odd since of course I generally love to admire beautiful women in skimpy clothing. Not this time. She's still beautiful as can be and I love the character she plays. I've know the character she plays in real life. It's oddly jarring to see her in a bikini. When I figure this out I'll be the first to know.
