OK, my question got answered on the Official "24" Thread. The bald bad guy is Paul McLane. The person on the thread said he played a doctor on "ER". I do remember seeing him on that show a couple of times.
Heard back from washer/dryer dude one. He said Wednesday would be fine and gave me directions. Doesn't sound tooo horribly bad, though it involves going through near-downtown Olympia.
Cool.... Maybe we'll see some hippies :~D
Mornin'
Then he was a sarcastic doctor on ER, last time I watched it. (Pretty well quit watching when they made the handicapped lady a lesbian. Puh-leeze.)
Good morning!
Yeah, that was a STOOPID plot line. Can you say 'agenda'? I never watched "ER" that much, but that did it for me, too.
Heh...when I was a nursing student, we were doing our psych rotation and one of the things I learned was that when a psych patient would act out and try to get attention focused on them, we were to say "I'm not feeding in to your mal-adaptive behavior." and turn around and walk off. Heh heh...man, I loved that statement. You should see the perplexed look on their faces. Suddenly they didn't have an audience. I use that statement a lot, even to this day...though I may not say it outloud.
It's basically how I felt when I turned off ER.
I think it's come up before, that my mom taught adult age people with a wide range of disabilities. She taught them job skills, according to what they would be good at.
I remember being there with her, waiting for her to finish class, and there was a whole room full of students. One student started talking - shouting really - out of turn - at people who were ~not~ really there... My mom cooly said... "'Jane', you can't talk to 'them' when you are in here, you know this." The student got up, walked out, closed the door, and screamed at the top of her lungs for them to 'LEAVE HER ALONE' then she came back in a few minutes later.
I don't remember if Mom was able to help her find a job or not :~)
mornin'
Yep, Paul McCrane was in "Fame" and on "ER." He was the SOB doctor who gave Elizabeth Corday a lot of grief. Towards the end of his run on the show, he lost an arm and the reattachment didn't work out well enough to allow him to continue to operate.
I'm assuming that was the end of his run. Is "ER" still on even? I have no idea. I pretty much stopped watching when Anthony Edwards left.
*snicker*
