Bill Pullman.org. Yes. Dot ORG.

For some reason, I was just thinking of a bit from Family Guy about Neil Simon's The Even Couple, starring Jeff Daniels and Bill Pullman.

This isn't spaghetti, it's linguine.
You're right, it is! I always get those confused. Hey, all of us are human.
I'm glad we're friends.
Yeah, this is really working out.

So I did a search and discovered it was mentioned in the 2006 news archives of billpullman.org. Bill Pullman is an organization now? Why isn't it .com, like Kamala the Ugandan Giant's website? What makes Bill Pullman so damn special?

To be fair, the site does state that "Bill Pullman.org is not officially connected in any way to Bill Pullman." So it's not as though Bill Pullman has let all of his many accolades go to his head. And anyway, odds are he would have gone with billpullman.gov, I mean, he did play the President of the United States.

I just hope billpullman.org is at least a non-profit organization determined to enhance the lives of those less fortunate, as opposed to a loose association of Lonestar stalkers. They could follow the example of the Society of Bill Paxton Admirers, whose mission statement vows that they are determined to find cost-efficient and ecological ways of converting their impure Bill-Paxton-related thoughts into clean, renewable energy.

What billpullman.org should do is start some kind of campaign to spread awareness that, while similar in name and shape, Good & Plenty is NOT the same thing as Mike & Ike. I found out the hard way. But there's hope for others.

Does anyone actually like licorice?

Is Bill Pullman the one who played in While You Were Sleeping, or is he the one from Twister? All I know is, I hate the one who peed himself in True Lies. Bill Paxton?

Oh, and licorice tastes like vomit.

True Lies is Bill Paxton. He's on Big Love now, which I've never seen.

Bill Pullman was in Spaceballs.

word verification: chicrot
To avoid chicrot, use Vagasil.

Pullman is an acting legend. I can see why he's a dot org. After all... he did help Daphne Zuniga out of her virginity, and saved the world from alien invasions. If that's not org worthy... I don't know what it.

Oh... and licorice tastes awesome. Especially the black kind.

John said...

licorice is the devil!

Bill Pullman played the dumb guy in Ruthless People. Okay, he played one of the dumb guys in Ruthless People.

.org is for people to slow to have gotten the .com site. Same with .net.

Licorice tastes like candy gone wrong. Very very wrong.
