Sad news. Kevin Spacey has
no interest in recording a Christmas album. I know, you're all as
devastated as I am. No CD with a cover shot of Kevin in a bulky
sweater sitting in front of a roaring fire. No accompanying DVD sold
only at Target. No singing a selection from the album on a Macy's
Thanksgiving float. No stops off at local PBS stations to showcase a
pre-recorded TV special. No Kevin Spacey Christmas Extravaganza
tickets being given away with a pledge of $500 or more. I guess
we'll just have to make do with Johnny Mathis this year.

Great
news! Something to look forward to. Kevin will be appearing in a
stage production of Richard III at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's
Harvey Theater in New York from February - April of 2012 followed by
a short international tour winding up at the Old Vic in May of 2012
for 4 months followed by a longer international tour. More details
will be coming later. This is very exciting news! This announcement
has been on many news and gossip sites today. Thanks Linda.
August 24, 2010 - Kevin is
expected to be at the Toronto International Film Festival next
month. Thanks to Spacey fan Carla for the following link.
Guests at TIFF 2010
August 19, 2010 - HBO has
snapped up the developing rights for a new Triggerstreet TV show.
Which could possibly star none other than Kevin himself if all the
news blips on the web are true. It's currently called The Crux and
will be about the leader of a high-profile cult. I hope this gets
made and that Kevin will star in it.
I just noticed
this entry on the Calendar page:
TV - PBS - Kevin narrates On Record:
The Soundtrack Of Our Lives (Fall 2010)
I haven't seen
anything else about this since I originally added it to the calendar
but Fall is right around the corner. Hopefully it won't be on during
pledge week!
August 16, 2010 -
I am going insane! I've been trying to get the polls and Feedback
pages working again but so far they are resisting every attempt.
I've removed the link for the Feedback form from the Map page for
now.
I've moved some of
the news from the bottom of this page to the news archives pages.
Now this page just goes back 2 years! I'll be moving more to the
archives later.
Only 70 days until
the site will celebrate it's 10th birthday!
August 13, 2010 -
Kevin says on
Facebook today that he signed both letters. I may have to set up
side by side comparison photos and poll the readers.
August 12, 2010 -
Now
Kevin thanks his fans at Driving Mr. Spacey for the birthday card
we sent. He's a fun guy. I really need to either get my scanner
fixed or buy a new one.
Shhhh ...Don't let on
to the bear but that' doesn't look like Kevin's signature. Someone else must have signed
the letter in his place.
August 11, 2010 -
I'm loopy after having dental work so hopefully this will be
coherent. If not, I'll fix it tomorrow!
KevieBear received an exciting piece of mail. From London! It's a
thank you letter from Kevin, for the birthday card KevieBear sent to
him. As you can imagine, K-Bear is now impossible to live with and
is ignoring the fact that the signature on the letter does not look
like any Spacey signature any of us fans have ever seen before.
KBear thinks it is some kind of secret code, but hasn't figured it
out yet.

Did you catch Kevin on that AFI tribute to Mike Nichols that was on
TV last month? I thought at the time that it must be a rare occasion
these days when he finds himself to be the youngest person in the
room!
May 31, 2010
Kevin
is going to be hosting a 192nd birthday bash/fundraiser for the Old
Vic Theatre on July 1st. There will be a champagne reception,
dinner, art auction and a very special musical performance by Paul
McCartney. Fans who are too young to know why he is such an
impressive guest, he was the Justin Bieber of a 1960's singing group
called The Beatles. Big bucks will get you a premium table! Ticket
info on the Old Vic web site. Click on the pic to the left to take
you to the OV site.
Reports say that Kevin has signed to do a film called Margin Call
which will co-star Stanley Tucci, Carla Gugino and Zachary Quinto.
In
other film news, Target was selling Men Who Stare at Goats for $10
last week.
May 23, 2010
Kevin is now the voice of KAYAK as well as the voice of Honda.
Some have reported seeing his commercial while watching manly
sporting shows on ESPN. I however came across it during an episode
of Say Yes to the Dress.
Midnight
in the Garden of Good and Evil is being re-released on DVD Tuesday,
June 1st.
It appears to be a repackaging of an earlier version but this time
will be part of a Clint Eastwood collection. MGGE can be purchased
as a separate DVD though. I've seen it advertised at Amazon and
Barnes & Noble. The descriptions at both places just say that there
are subtitles, widescreen and full screen versions on the disc. The
lovely new cover is very striking though, as you can see for
yourself.
A
few weeks ago, I received in the mail, a small note card from Kevin
thanking me, his fans at Driving Mr. Spacey, the chat room fans,
KevieBear and my sister for the annual Christmas card. I posted a
tiny piece of the card at Twitpic since KevieBear was quite excited
to see part of his name in Kevin's own handwriting.
April 1. 2010
These stories get weirder and weirder. Now the Old Vic has announced
that they have taken legal action against a man who claims to be
Kevin's son. He'd been seen lurking in the park near the theater and
has tried to enter the theater while trying to catch Kevin when he
was at work. The theater spokesman said that while he does look like
Kevin, Kevin denies being even remotely related to the man and has
said he'll take him to court and force a DNA test if he doesn't
stop bothering Kevin and his friends and family. The official
statement is here.
March 30, 2010
Kevin's picture was in this morning's Washington Post newspaper and
this time they didn't use the picture of him with socialite poodle
Campari. No sirree, they used a very tiny color headshot. And it
even has his name under the picture this time!
The Washington Post, Style, page C2.
The Reliable Source by Roxanne Roberts and Amy Argetsinger
This Just In
Another long-awaited film - "Casino Jack," in which Kevin Spacey
plays disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff - has found a distributor,
Metropolitan Inc., which announced Monday that it will release the
movie in theaters this fall, Variety Reports.
(I
have just one small complaint. OK, more than one small complaint.
First, Kevin's picture is smaller than the one used of that annoying
Rod Blagojevich who is only shown because he's on Celebrity
Apprentice and second, Kevin's picture is the only one from the
paper which is not shown on the Post's online site. They have a
large picture of Jack Abramoff instead. BTW - I was going to tear
out the small item for posterity but decided that the entire page
might be worth saving. I mean, how many times are we going to see
Kevin Spacey on the same newspaper page as Kukla, Fran and Ollie? I
won't even mention that K,F & O have a much larger picture and an
entire article devoted to them.)
~
I
was reading an online article the other day that was saying that a
new Superman film was in the very early stages of pre-pre-production
but no word on whether any of the actors from the previous film,
such as say, Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor, will be asked to return to
reprise their roles. His being in Superman Returns was the only
reason I saw that one.
~
The Men Who Stare at Goats is now available on DVD and you can catch
Kevin on the "making of" type thing on it.
March 29, 2010
Kevin has taken to Twitter and Facebook to refute the odd rumors
that Kate Moss is going to be in a play at the Old Vic. This is not
a joke.
March 12, 2010
London's Apollo Theatre will play host to a
star-studded, one-off theatre show celebrating the
world's tribes.
The
evening will feature performance of tribal prose and
poetry from some of the UK and Hollywood’s leading
actors and musicians including
Kevin
Spacey,
Julie Christie, Mackenzie Crook, Sinead Cusack, Colin
Firth, Emilia Fox, Michael Gambon, Sophie Okonedo, Mark
Rylance, Danny Sapani, John Sessions, Juliet Stevenson,
Ken Stott, Zoe Wanamaker, and James Wilby. There will
also be a performance by Bruce Dickinson, Jon Lord and
Ian Paice.
This
unique theatrical event is inspired by the words and
images of tribal peoples featured in the recently
published book ‘We Are One – a celebration of tribal
peoples’ to mark the 40th anniversary of Survival
International, the world's foremost tribal rights
organization.
The event will be held on Sunday April 18th.

Thanks to Matthew of Survival International for the info.
January 17, 2010
Kevin tweeted on Twitter and posted to Facebook last night that he
has been traveling to LA, NYC, London and will be heading to China
soon.
There seems to be some question about whether he is really on
Facebook and which Kevin Spacey on Facebook he really is. Yes, he is
really on Facebook. He took over one of the fan-started Kevin
Spacey's and is now that Kevin Spacey himself.
The
real Kevin Spacey on Facebook
Watched Moon last night. I enjoyed it. The company that released it
should have had a competition to get people into the theaters to see
it when it was out. There could have been a fabulous prize for
whoever correctly guessed how many times Kevin said the word "Sam".
People would have been forced to see it more than once since they'd
have forgotten they were counting.
January 16, 2010
Wow. I can't believe how long it's been since I updated the site!
Let's see... Kevin's play ended. He went on vacation.
Moon is available on home video now. I rented it from Netflix. Gonna
watch it tonight during the chat if anyone else wants to join me.
9pm EST in the chat room. Link on the map page. Entertainment Weekly
says that Moon is probably going to become a cult classic.
I
need a fantastic new picture for the entrance page. I'll have to go
through my old magazines and find one. One of the (few) complaints
that I receive about the current one is that it doesn't look like
Kevin Spacey. I disagree. I think it does. Granted, it's a few years
old but it's not like he's not recognizable in it.
November 11, 2009
Still haven't
scanned the picture from last week and now will have to add the
artsy drawing that accompanied the review in the Washington Post on
Friday morning. The reviews have been mixed but the critic for
Entertainment Weekly said that Kevin wore the worst hairpiece of his
career in "Goats" which obviously means the critic never saw Edison.
Kevin told his Facebook followers that he quit smoking back in June.
Congratulations and good luck with that, Kevin.
November 1, 2009
There is a picture
of Kevin from the upcoming Men Who Stare at Goats in today's issue
of the Washington Post Magazine. Color pic, page 53. I do take
exception to the fact that the accompanying mini review says that
the movie stars George Clooney, Ewan McGregor and Jeff Bridges.
Kevin's name is only listed at the very bottom where it says who is
in the picture. I'll scan it later today.
I
recently noticed that I never changed the address for the polls when
I switched host companies. I'll try to fix those this week. Maybe
start a brand new poll.
October 24, 2009
Good grief, I had
no idea it had been so long since I had updated the site!
I
have been seeing TV commercials for Men Who Stare At Goats. Looks
pretty funny. Kevin looks a bit like Hitler. I am guessing that this
is part of the plot.
Kevin is currently in London performing in Inherit The Wind at the
Old Vic Theatre. Unfortunately I won't be able to go to London to
see it. Maybe he'll come back to the US and do another play here.
Tonight there will be a SHRINK movie chat at the site chat room. 9pm
or thereabouts. I don't know if we'll be doing a special Halloween
movie chat next week. Christmas seems to have come to all the stores
around here already, so maybe The Ref would be appropriate for
Halloween!
Driving Mr. Spacey! will be 9 years old on Monday. That is so hard
to believe.
August 13, 2009 -
A
few updates. We'll get to Kevin in a minute but first and more
importantly, when I got home from work last week, mixed in with the
junk mail and catalogs was an envelope addressed to me and the site.
It had been metered at the Old Vic so you know what that means.
Spacey mail!
The handwriting
was not Kevin's but I still didn't want to damage the envelope so I
opened it with a knife. Inside was a small cream colored note card
with "The Old Vic" embossed in silver in the corner and in glorious
blue ink, a handwritten message from Kevin Spacey addressed to the
fans whose names were on the annual DMS birthday card! Along with a
thank you for his unique one-of-a-kind, only one like it in the
world, secret message birthday tie. There was a paperclip
indentation at the top and, oh, you probably want to see it for
yourself. Here you go.

What a nice
surprise. The writing is an interesting mix of caps and lower case,
as someone told me. What means I have no idea. I guess it was just
an observation.
Now on to Kevin.
SHRINK is in very limited release right now. If you can catch it in
the theater, please do. If not, it's going to be released on DVD at
the end of next month.
I'd read somewhere
that a cast addition had been made to Inherit The Wind but it hasn't
been posted on the Old Vic site yet and I can't recall the name.
Someone will no doubt remind me.
This next is new -
From the BBC Radio press office web site.

Don't forget. Kevin will be on Letterman tonight and is scheduled
for The View on Friday morning. TV listings indicate he's
advertising Shrink which opens on Friday in NY and LA.
July 9, 2009 -
Kevin is
rumored to be on Letterman on July 21. Thanks to Joanne.
Kevin's birthday
card and very special gift from the fans at Driving Mr. Spacey were
mailed to him at the Old Vic a few days ago.
June 29, 2009 -
Kevin is
now filming in New Orleans.
I will be mailing
the birthday card and very special gift on Monday. If you have sent
me your name for the card, it has already been added. If you
haven't, you have another week to do so.
June 7, 2009 -
Ten years
ago, Kevin was starring a Broadway production of The Iceman Cometh.
This caused quite a sensation among his fans and many went to see
him and then shared their experiences and photos with the rest of
the fans at the message boards, fan sites and email groups.
I had tickets to see him the night after the Tony awards (for which
he had been nominated) and we drove up to NYC on Sunday morning. You
can read all about it here:
My trip to see Iceman in 1999
I hate looking at
some of the early sections of the site. I see so many things that
need to be done over and better!
June
6, 2009 - Kevin has announced that he has withdrawn from the Tony awards
tomorrow night.
You can own one of Kevin's ties! Pictures are up and to the right!
Kevin signed and
donated an Armani tie to be auctioned for charity. You can read
about the organization and find a link to the auction here:
www.CareerGear.org
The auction ends
June 14, 2009 at 11:59pm EST.
Don't ask me why
but while some people have been able to access DMS today, others get
nothing but a blank screen and an error message saying that Driving
Mr. Spacey has been suspended. I'm trying to find out how it can be
offline and online at the same time. Could it have something to do
with DNS servers?
June 5, 2009
People tell me
that everything was *not* working as the site was offline briefly
last night. I hope this isn't going to be a recurring problem every
time I update the site!
The site link for
Kevin's upcoming Shrink movie:
http://www.shrinkthemovie.net/
The only thing
there so far is a link for viewing the trailer which requires
QuickTime 7 to view.
I've updated the
Old Vic Theatre news page with a very brief bit of info on their new
season. Link found in the black box above.
Kevin's been
golfing for his current movie role.
Golfing
I saw a commercial
on BBC America last night for a new talk show starring Jonathan
Ross. Perhaps Kevin may show up there some day in the future?
June 4, 2009 -
I moved the
site last week but was only offline for a brief time so many may not
have realized the site had been moved. Everything seems to be
working.
Kevin tweets that
there will be an announcement tomorrow about the next season for the
Old Vic. Kevin says he will be in the first play. More tomorrow! I
guess I'll have to update the OV news page. It's uh, a few years out
of date.
Kevin has been
filming a movie in Canada but will be returning to the states to
celebrate the 10 year anniversary of our summer of love. More
commonly known as "On Sunday, it will be exactly 10 years since I
went to NYC to see Kevin in Iceman and watched the Tony awards on TV
the night before."
If asked, he would
no doubt tell you that he is going to be in NYC on Sunday night to
present at the Tonys. It's all in the way you look at it!
I think CBS
usually shows the Tony awards.
You can read all
about the trip back in 1999 in the theatre section of the site.
*A bit of Spacey
trivia - Kevin celebrated his 40th birthday at the end of the Iceman
run back in 1999.
I am still adding
names to his 50th birthday greeting card, so there's still time if
anyone wants to add theirs.
May 24, 2009 -
I've decided
to wait until Tuesday to move the site. I decided a holiday weekend
might not be the best time to be dealing with problems that arise
from doing that!
Fans have asked me
how to find Kevin on Twitter. He is here:
http://twitter.com/KevinSpacey
Kevin is currently
filming Casino Jack and it has been announced that he will be doing
Catalonia with Colin Firth. I don't know when that starts filming.
May 19, 2009 -
I'm going to
be moving the site on Sunday so it will probably be off the air for
at least a few days afterwards.
This morning I was
reading Kevin's tweets from last night and I was getting annoyed.
Good thing tweets can't be long because it forced me to keep my own
tweet to KS to the point. Or to one of the points anyway! It will
probably get lost in the crush of tweets he gets but I hope he reads
it if he comes across it.
I'm going to go
mow the lawn before I get the urge to write an open letter to Kevin
right here where I'm not limited to 140 characters only!
I wanted to let
everyone who has so far sent their name in for inclusion on the
annual birthday card, that I have their names.
May 14, 2009 -
Liked
Kevin's red socks last night when he was on Leno.
May 9, 2009 -
Spacey fan
Linda tells me that she read a snippet that says Kevin has left the
William Morris Agency and will now be with Creative Artists Agency.
If this is so, the WMA address will no longer be a valid address for
writing to him.
May 6 -
Spacey fan Linda
tells me that Kevin is supposed to be on The Tonight Show w/Jay Leno
next week on the 13th. This is also showing up on TV NOW.
The Norman
Conquests have 7 nominations for the Tony Awards. Big Thanks to
Kevin himself for tweeting everyone the news.
May 2, 2008 -
KevieBear has
a new look to his web site these days. Plus I've added a new (short)
adventure there instead of to the site here.
www.keviebearsjourney.com
Listen up Spacey
fans. Kevin's birthday is in less than 3 months.
April 27, 2008 -
Kevin has been
travelling around accepting various honors and awards. His trip to
the Washington, D.C. area over the weekend for one honor didn't make
the local DC paper, but there was the following snippet in today's
Washington Post, The Reliable Source columns:
HEY ISN"T
THAT...???
Kevin Spacey and a
bunch of business types lunching Saturday on the patio at Stars
restaurant on P Street, where he signed autographs and posed for
pictures. The Academy Award winner is playing Jack Abramoff in a new
biopic: he visited the convicted lobbyist Friday at Cumberland
Federal Prison.
The snippet
included a tiny b/w picture of Kevin next to a tiny picture of
Abramoff looking like Charles Grodin in a fedora.
One item I read
about the film is that it's title is to be 'Casino Jack' which is
Abramoff's nickname.
Kevin's upcoming
film 'Moon' got a brief mention in last week's Entertainment Weekly.
No picture of Kevin accompanied the mention.
April 19, 2009 -
Kevin tweets that
he's going to be on the Today show on Tuesday morning during the
8:30 hour which I presume to mean between 8:30 and 9am EST. Just a
guess on my part.
I'm going to be
making some changes to the site here and there as I have some time
in the next 6 weeks in preparation for attempting the site without
FP Extensions in June.
April 2, 2009 -
I
never thought I could hate a commercial more than those
astonishingly annoying "cavemen" commercials until I was watching TV
one night recently and was bombarded with the most grating
commercials I have ever been exposed to. They're for Comcast. You
probably already know which ones I mean. They feature people and
singing in a monotone. I kept having to mute the sound every time
one came on. And to make the torture worse, they're even on the
radio. I've been taking to turning off the car radio whenever one
comes on and changing the channel when I'm watching TV. I'm not sure
that's the effect they were going for!
Kevin tells us that he's going to be doing another film called
Father of Invention. A Triggerstreet production.
April 1, 2009 -
Announcement on
the future of Driving Mr. Spacey! - As some of you know, my web host
has informed me that as of July 1, the program that I use for the
site will no longer work with their service. I'm looking at having
to start DMS over from scratch due to the fact that the program I
use is nearly obsolete and I'm having trouble finding a new web host
that will be compatible. The site is very large and I don't know how
to use any other program so to start over would be very time
consuming. So sadly, I'm afraid that when my hosting agreement runs
out in June, that may be the end of Driving Mr. Spacey!.
It's been a fantastic run of over 8 years but things come and go and
times change. I'm sad that this all is happening just when Kevin is
having a big birthday, but hey, them's the breaks. I've been trying
to figure out what to do for his birthday this year and I have one
idea. I've put it on another page. You can check it out and let me
know what you think.
Birthday 2009

you TWITTER?
As of
yesterday, officially Kevin does. He had about 3300 followers at

KevieBear is also on Twitter. He's very cutting edge as anyone will
tell you.
New commercials
Kevin may be the voice of Honda in the U.S. but he's now the face of
American Airlines in the U.K.! You can see the commercials online
here.

I've been out of touch because my father had a double bypass earlier
in the week but he's home now and doing very well and I've almost
got enough energy to check the site mail. Or I will until I go
outside and start shoveling all that snow we got last night and this
morning! Hope to update the site this evening.
February 21, 2009 -
It's that time of year again. Time for me to make my Oscar
predictions based on nothing due to the fact that I haven't seen any
of the movies.
Actor in a Leading Role - They'll go for either Richard Jenkins for
class and dignity or Mickey Rourke for a wild and crazy choice.
Actor in a Supporting Role - Oscar loves a dead man who gave his all
for a role so I predict the late Heath Ledger.
Actress in a Leading Role - Everyone expects it will be Kate Winslet
but I will say Melissa Leo. Am I the only one who remembers her from
Homicide: Life on the Street?
Actress in a Supporting Role - Penelope Cruz because the Academy
voters seem to like foreign actresses for this award. Amy Adams for
a surprise twist.
Best Director - Everyone says it's going to be the director for
Slumdog Millionaire so I predict the Academy voters will go for that
Benjamin Button movie that no one I know had any interest in seeing.
Best Film - See Best Director prediction.
February 17,2009 -
Boy, I can't believe how far behind the news I am already this year!
I guess I'll just have to start with new news.
Need a shrink?
If you are on Facebook, you can be a fan of Kevin's new film SHRINK.
Go here:
SHRINK
They have some nice photos of Kevin to look at there even if you
aren't a member.
*Disclaimer - I used a picture of Kevin holding KevieBear as my
Facebook photo on the suggestion of Spacey fan Laura. I am
NOT
Kevin Spacey, got it?
Complicit
In spite of some earlier problems, Kevin's new directorial effort
Complicit is on at the Old Vic.
Old schedule
page Yes, I
do know that I haven't updated the schedule page in a while. Or the
polls. I'll try to get to those this week some time.
February 14, 2009 -
Great
news for chat fans! I finally removed the Christmas music and
picture and movie chat schedule for December 13th off of the chat
entrance page! Happy Valentine's Day!
Oh! Did I mention that KevieBear has a girlfriend? I'll introduce
her to everyone in a few days.
January 6, 2009 -
#1
- Barcelona, Spain. February 16-20, 2009. Kevin will be appearing at
GSMA's Mobile Film Festival as festival host and keynote speaker for
the MOFILM Mobile Short Film Festival. Kevin will present the
prize for the best
short film of 5 minutes or less in length and will participate in an
interview on February 19.
Chevrolet is the main sponsor but we won't tell Honda.
BTW - If you have a short film, they've extended their deadline.
More info about the festival and a cute picture of Kevin can be
found here:
http://www.mofilm.com/press.php
Thanks to Matt for
the info.
#2 - Spacey fan
Laura shares the following Charlie Rose link with us. You can watch
Kevin's old Charlie Rose interviews there. If you are a newer fan,
you have a treat in store. If you're an older, er, fan of longer
standing, they're still fun to watch again.

#3 - I don't know
if Kevin has any plans to attend the Golden Globe awards. I think
they are this coming Sunday.
December 31, 2008 -
Now that 208 is winding down, I'm going to make my new year's
resolution for 2009.
I
will move 2008 to it's own pages in the archives, will start a new
page for 2009 and will either update the polls or close the old ones
and start a new one.
Happy 2009 Spacey fans!

November 22, 2008
I
sat down last night to update the site what with all the current
movie and theatre news as well as the polls that are backed up and I
was going to add some pictures but I was sidetracked when I found
out that the elfyourself.com site was back and instead of updating
the site I spent more than an hour elfing Kevin instead of myself
and I was laughing so much that I got a headache and then was too
tired to update the site. I sometimes wonder if Kevin finds himself
to be as much fun as we do.
There is going to be a '21' movie chat tonight in the chat room.
I've had the movie for months and this will be the first chance I've
had to watch it. Anyone is welcome to come by, whether you have the
movie or not.
I
guess we'll have to schedule a 'The Ref' movie chat in a few weeks
for the holidays. Maybe even a Fred Claus chat if anyone is brave
enough to buy or rent the film.

My Kevin-detector must be malfunctioning! Kevin was only an hour
away and I never felt a thing.
Today's Washington Post newspaper. Style section. Names & Faces
column. Oddly no repeat of the picture of him with Campari, the
jet-setting poodle:
End Notes - Spotted: Kevin Spacey (long-sleeved white shirt, gray
slacks) sipping a soft drink at the Bar at the St. Regis yesterday.

I swore I wasn't going to post it but... Kevin Spacey is O-L-D-E-R
than the newly elected president of the United States! Wow! How did
that happen?

Happy Birthday Driving Mr. Spacey!

BREAKING SUPERMAN
NEWS!!
Kevin may or may
not be in the next Superman installment that may or may not be made
by Bryan Singer and may possibly be going in a new direction,
possibly with a new Superman. Stay tuned for more details.
The new
anniversary special edition multi-disc DVD of L.A. Confidential is
not being sold at Target. At least the stores near my own home. This
surprises me.
Kevin is still
traveling the world going to film festivals. He was also recently in
Puerto Rico filming his new movie with George Clooney, according to
web reports.
I've gone ahead
and put the Halloween entrance picture up that has been used over
the past few years to either great response or accusations that it
is evil. Personally, I like it.
Here's something
surprising. I've updated a few polls! I must admit that many of the
old poll responses were automatically deleted before I was able to
use them due to the amount of time that had elapsed. I sincerely
apologize.
Ten days from now
will be the eighth anniversary of the start of Driving Mr. Spacey!.
I'll be sure to remind you when the time comes.
I'll probably
regret it but I have put the feedback form back up. Please don't
spam me this time!

There will be a
special Emmy night chat tonight in the Driving Mr. Spacey! chat
room. We'll watch the telecast, wait for Kevin sightings (we hope
he'll be there since he was nominated and so was Trigger Street) and
talk about how badly everyone is dressed and how awful the celebrity
banter is.

In the wee hours
of this morning, I was having trouble sleeping and started watching
a crime show on the ID (Investigation Discovery) channel. I dozed
off near the end and woke up just after the next program started.
The TV volume was turned down low but I thought the person talking
sounded like Kevin Spacey. A few sentences later, it was very
obviously Kevin Spacey. It was something I'd never seen before. A
documentary called Uganda Rising.
Kevin was the narrator. The ID channel's website has this
description: A look at the
dire situation in Uganda, centering on the internal conflict between
rebel forces known as the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), the corrupt
Ugandan government and the Acholi citizens, especially the children,
who are caught in the crossfire.
They have it
scheduled for another showing on September 26th at 6am.
