So we were just sitting and watching the Dan Rather special, and they did this little montage showing some of the most significant historical moments he covered, and they get to a clip of Nelson Mandela casting his ballot in the first election in South Africa. This is the dialogue:
"Pouy, you know that guy... the one in Million Dollar Baby..."
"Yeah..." (I'm thinking, Clint Eastwood?)
"Why was he just shown casting a ballot on TV?"
"Huh?" (still confused)... (and finally getting it)..."Auddie..That was Nelson Mandela. Not Morgan Freeman."
"Oh. Well they look alike."
(It's true, they do look alike. That's probably one of the reasons they got Morgan to play Nelson in the film adaptation of Long Walk to Freedom.)
But it was still a funny Auddie moment.
In other news, we're onto the American Idol top 12! Mario (or Anwar) all the way! And regrets to our BobbyBrown-singing and dancing wahoo, Travis Tucker. At least you have that good UVA education to fall back on!

what? so, like all black people look alike? that's like saying "all asian people look alike." (but let's be honest though, they do)
