I wonder if that chicken (turkey?) she's playing sounds anything like bagpipes...

The part of Walden will be played by a pond.

In any case:

Here is Shirley Temple playing with her...............Here is Darlene Gillespie playing a very cool little
sweet little Scottie named Corky.........................dudette named Corky with her loyal companion White Shadow.

One of these four beings should play scottielvr. I am so fond of all of them I really could not pick :lol: .
Heh. Shirley Temple's...uh, not a good fit, for so many reasons I couldn't possibly enumerate them here. For entirely different reasons I don't think I'd go with Darlene Gillespie, either. I know nothing about the "Corky" character she played (the only useful info I found in a quick search was that she was "headstrong and brave," which is about half right); but judging from the pic, I'm sort of charmed by the idea. The hat would have to go, though. Either Corky the Scottie or White Shadow would be just fine; though White Shadow really should sport a bandana. Either of them could play my part with all the subtlety and nuance called for by the role. :wink:

Another option: The role of Walden wll be played by an origami owl which flies around being utterly reasonable.

I sort of figured you weren't going to go for Shirley---even though she'd be awful fun to work with--well, awful cute, anyway. And she tap dances! I know, poor Darlene, I read some things about her but I decided to live in the past and pretend I didn't know. She really was great as Corky---I loved her, and her hat :lol: . I'm sure her husband made her do it. White Shadow in his bandana and Corky the Scottie will be at your service. Perhaps they can stand in for each other at nap times, etc.

And if you find someone else to play you, their feelings won't be the least bit hurt as long as you give them a lot of severance treats!

:lol: Well, I know Julia Child isn't really available now, so I guess Dan Aykroyd would do in a pinch. I haven't actually seen that skit. It sounds funny. I'm not seeing the picture you posted, but I couldn't find one from another source.

Not sure why you can't see the picture. Its in your quote, as well. It was, indeed, a classic skit from SNL. Julia (Akroyd as a Canadian in drag) is showing how to dress a bird when the knife slips and she cuts her finger, but in true SNL fashion, she hasn't just "cut the little dickens", she is spurting blood in geysers several feet into the air, but remaining in character throughout, meaning no foul language, and no showing of temper, even though a tinge of panic creeps into her voice as the geyser shows no signs of abating. :D

She was good in Tank Girl too!

I think I would have to go with Marty Feldman. Though once upon a time I was told a lot that I looked like John Cusak. or was that Joan Cusak?

hmmm.

I recall a discussion, of sorts, about a C+F Soap Opera.

Might have been before Tylers time on the Chiff.

Loved and thought himself beloved,

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

I think James Brown would be the natural choice for Dale (as soon as he's finished with his role as Karl Jung)

Steven Seagal as Loren.

Red Green as Weekenders.

Anthony Hopkins as Jim Stone.
