Jesse Heiman: The World's Greatest Extra
Heiman: I get called in to work usually every day of the week, sometimes all on one show, sometimes I’m working five different shows. The days are typically long, 12-14 hours of work and that equals good money and fun times on set, but it’s a professional job. It’s just as hard or easy as your job but we all try to have fun while doing it.

This much is clear. Classic Curious George was a wheelie popping bad ass, while modern Curious George is a helmet wearing goodie-two-shoes.
As I’m sure all readers of The Daily Quarterly know, the plot consists of George being presented with a bike on his and the man in the yellow hat’s anniversary only to see the man in the yellow hat go off to work immediately afterward and leave George alone with his bike. Long story short, George leaves his neighborhood on the bike, rides off and eventually falls in with a traveling animal show that’s supposed to perform in town that night.

The "There Once Was a Man from Nantucket" movie is based on the original "There Once Was a Man from Nantucket" limerick, first published in 1902, and not the vulgar parody of the limerick written years later.

But not everybody is as excited about the new flick as Piven is, apparently. John Cusack’s people have issued a statement about his disappointment in the “PCU” and “Old School” star’s latest choice of projects.

Last month, City Manager Kevin Miles instituted a ban which prohibited people who enter City Hall and any other city-owned building from bringing in keys. But no alternative place was provided by the city for people to leave their car keys, so many citizens ended up leaving them in their car.
Miles said it was his understanding from “the internet or somewhere” that keys “posed a safety, health and security risk” when used certain ways, and he’s merely doing his job, protecting the people of Karlsfield, though he really couldn’t recall where he read that. Continue reading
