Dabney Wharton Coleman is in Everything

Alrighty then. I have no idea what to talk about to today. Sometimes my mind is a blank. You ever get that feeling? Where you just can't remember something so you just give up trying and then finally the next day you are like "Dom Deluise!" I started watching Cloak and Dagger the other night. A classic computer movie where top secret spy plane plans are hidden in a Cloak and Dagger atari video game. Talk about cheesy technology. It was a good movie though. It has everyone's favorite character. The man who is in almost every movie, Dabney Coleman. If you ever play the Kevin Bacon Game just use ole Dabney and you can't go wrong. Say take Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise was more than likely in a movie with Dabney Coleman and Dabney Coleman was more than likely in a movie with Kevin Bacon. It is that easy. But what I want to know is, who would name their son Dabney? That's not even a real name, or is it? "What shall we name our son?" "How about Dabney, I've always had a fascination for the letter D and you always liked abney. It's Perfect!" He was probably picked on when he was little,"Dabneys got Crab Knees!" The teasing was probably so bad he went by his actual middle name - Wharton. But that was probably much worse. "Hey Wharton! You have a Wart On Your Knee!" And that is what drove him into acting where he could be called Captain Jack Flack instead of Dabney Wharton Coleman.

Thought of the Day
Most people don't know that I am an accomplished dramatic actor... But I've performed in several Shakespeare productions including Hamlet, except in this version, Hamlet lives in an apartment with two women, and has to pretend he's gay so that the landlord won't evict him.
