Publishing a Park City report in summer is sorta like celebrating Christmas in July . . .

1.22.08
Cut & color appointment at Hair by Kim. Car radio breaking news, Heath Ledger is dead. Swerve away from Paparazzi swarming Britney Jean outside Capella Salon.
Nobody walks in L.A. Safe in hair chair, peruse Star Magazine headline, "Inside Britney's Tragic Freefall From Madness." Kim's assistant and infrequent visitor to The Hills, the beauteous Abrea, keeps tabs on Brit, reports in of the punch-out at next-door Starbucks. No need to go to Park City to celebrity spot, just stay in L.A.

"I heard all about it." "Heard what?" "Zach Braff." Sundance scenesters exit Burbank Airport. Cheap seats on Jet Blue up and away we go, just as the festivals come to a close. Dennis Wong takes us to Little World in SLC for authentic Chinese. For the 1.29.08 exit, it will be Tony Caputo's Market & Deli for much anticipated meatball sandwiches and a walk about the Mormon Tabernacle.


Wong + Astro fan Killian


Up on Main Street the raucous carouse. Fuse party girls hand out church key party favors. Slamdance ends, no Joy (Saez) in sight.

1.26.08
Eccles Theatre CSNY Déjà Vu. "We have all been here before." The footage of the troubadour activists intercut with Iraq travesty, political commentary, and new voices of dissent unfortunately lacks a clear narrative and well-defined focal point. Yet, the power of "four balding hippies'" brilliant harmonies, performed without artifice, rings clear as a bell.

1.27.08
The delicious owners of Main Street Deli extend the breakfast hour for favorites: bacon, egg, and havarti cheese sandwich and French toast. Mmmm. Astro makes his annual celebrity splash at the Entertainment Weekly headquarters Kimball Art Center. WGA strike signs line windows.

Sundance screen test. Dennis: "Producers approached Sidd. He was wearing a blue coat and they asked him to walk back and forth fifteen times. It was for Entourage's sophomore season episode, "The Sundance Kids."

Fun with Dick and Jane watching the SAG awards. Avid Sundancer, Jane recommends Phoebe in Wonderland and Stranded. Chefette Michelle's dinner table discussion revolves around mutual obsession of Modern Marvels. After dinner screening of The Warriors director's cut. Can you dig it?

1.28.08
White out. Dynamite blasts to clear avalanches of the corn snow.

Nature abhors a vacuum.
