After-Dinner Blogging

Some quick notes:

For any Winnipeggers lurking here, if you want music about your hometown, go check out the other Mike Ford for the lyrics of Canada Needs You Volume Two. It sounds a lot better when the CD's playing than you might think. (Same goes for Montrealers, Newfoundlanders, anyone who was at Clayoquot Sound, and a slew of others...)

In case you're wondering, Christmas was kind enough. Mostly clothes, gift cards for bookstores, and some snacks. It'll do nicely.

A belated note: I've started up chat and photo-posting on DEWLiners for anyone interested.

As a longtime Saint fan, I've been wanting to see the tales of Simon Templar getting back into print. Seems as if it's about to finally happen. Anyone up for cueing up Edwin Astley's anthem for Roger Moore?

Back to you...

Release of "The Best of The Saint"

[(Anonymous)]

I appreciate your comments on the saint.org site about my suggestion of Alexander Siddig as a possible good Simon Templar. I think I may have finally, however, thought of one actor who might be ideal and acceptable to most fans: Jonathan Rhys Meyers. He has been in a number of movies including "Bend It Like Beckham" and "Mission: Impossible III." He's definitely young enough for the part and while he's not British he is Irish which may be "close enough" in the TV and movie world. I agree with your comment that it's good to see the tales of Simon Templar getting back into print. I'd love to see Leslie Charteris' family select a continuation author for further new stories. Hopefully "The Best of The Saint" will have successful sales which justifies bringing "The Saint" series back to TV or the movies and into print.
