The filmmakers used the KOMO-TV studios in Seattle as sets – altering the logo to “KQMO-TV” – and many KOMO personalities make cameo appearances.

Aboriginal Heritage
Did you know that Angelina Jolie is of Czech and American descent on her father’s side and French-Canadian and Haudenosaunee (Iroquian Indian) heritage on her mother’s side?
My Bucket List
So Chantelle and I were talking about this week’s movie, Life or Something like it and it got me thinkin’. Life is way too short, I mean my motto is : Life is Short, Play Hard but I thought maybe I should start getting things done on the old bucket list.
1. Buy a bucket
2. Replace Chantelle’s digital camera that I broke
3. Put a bag of marshmallows in mouth . . . wait. . . I did that already. Ok make it two bags!
4. Ride a yak
5. Join a bowling league
6. Fly a blimp
7. Learn to play every song from Frank Zappa’s Apostrophe album on kazoo
8. Drive a public transit bus . . . But get permission first this time!
9. Beat the world record for the most hot dogs eaten in under 12 minutes
I have managed to do some of the things on my list.
12. stand-up comedy
39: bungee jumping
61: learn to speak French
78. learn to yodel
97 learn archery
Although that last one didn’t go very well- watch the show this Friday to see what I mean.
