Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

You’d think an actor would be fine with seeing himself on TV, but… I just was looking online at tvguide.com to see what’s on, and I realize my episode of Untold Stories of the ER is rerunning! I watch it, and it’s just so strange to me thinking that thousands of people are seeing my [...]
