Discovery.

Last night, jhango showed Wordplay at her movie night. And I discovered something I hadn't noticed before.

The very first shot of the movie, after the titles, is an over-the-shoulder shot of someone working on a puzzle. All you can see is a bit of the person's shirt, maybe a bit of hair, and the person's hand and the puzzle.

That person? Is me.

Watching it last night, for the first time I realized I recognized the shirt -- you can't see much other than black, but you can see a letter "A" in a funky font, and I realized that it's my Anything Goes t-shirt. We paused the movie and looked more closely, and sure enough, that's my handwriting and the type of pencil I like. It's me doing puzzle 5 from that year (of BATTUE BOY infamy).

So even though I wasn't a key player in the film, the first shot of the movie is all me. I think that's cool. Geeky, but cool. :)

How funny -- you have the first shot, I have the first line, and neither of us recognized ourselves instantly. :-)

I recognized your voice instantly, though. :)
