Title: Body of Proof
ANGIE DECIDES IT’S TIME TO GO ON THE RUN, ON ABC’S “DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES”
“Would I Think of Suicide?” – The residents of Fairview learn the hard way that the world is a dangerous place, on ABC’s “Desperate Housewives,” SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 29(9:00-10:01 p.m., ET). In the wake of another attack, Angie decides the time has come for her and her family to leave Wisteria Lane; Bree and Susan are literally up in arms with one another as Bree’s affair with Karl becomes increasingly difficult to hide; Lynette’s pregnancy causes a rift with Gaby; and a confrontation between Mike and Katherine leads to a harmful and unexpected blow.
So the lady left another tiny line on Friday, maybe she forgot to add it on Thursday’s post haha. But well here’s it.
And of course, I am grateful for Reg Hunt EVERY day of the year!
I was going to do a little Thanksgiving post here but you see, I think I’ll de better pasting the one the lady left today on her website!
Happy Thanksgiving to all, including our international family. I have so much to be grateful for- a fun job, wonderful friends, my health and a new apartment! But I am truly thankful that my job has introduced me to all of you. I do read the posts here regularly and I am amazed at the connections that have been made. I have a friend that calls me “the connector” and I’m beginning to think that’s true. If this site has helped you to find a common bond with someone across the globe, then that’s grand. That’s the “good” side of the internet as opposed to all the darkness that seems to be online.
I also want to say that I am constantly impressed with some of the insight in your comments. And the gentle humanity that connects us all. I am grateful for that every day, not just this one.
I know that I am extremely fortunate. Thank you. Have a wonderful day and enjoy that pumpkin pie- it’s my favorite!

Indie ensemble drama Multiple Sarcasms, which stars Timothy Hutton, Mira Sorvino, Dana Delany, Mario Van Peebles and Stockard Channing, has set its theatrical release for New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle in March.
Multiple Sarcasms will expand into additional markets in April and May via Multiple Avenue Releasing. Brooks Branch wrote, directed and produced the film.
Multiple Sarcasms also stars Laila Robins and India Ennenga, and is set in New York City in 1979 and follows Hutton’s character, Gabriel Richmond, a man in his late 40′s, who is a successful architect. He begins questioning his life choices, which ultimately turns into an art form, as he goes from architect to playwright, examining his own life. This is a quirky relationship drama.
Thanks to our friends over at Margamania, we were sent a link to a thoughtful letter that Dana wrote (I’m thinking it was maybe this week, somebody please correct me if I’m wrong.) about her father and his battle with pancreatic cancer, and how she’s continuing to support finding a cure for the cause and raising awareness about it.
Here’s a snippet, and you can read the full letter at PanCan.org
Dear friend –
As an actor, I’ve played everything from a wartime nurse to a desperate housewife. But one of the most meaningful roles of my life has nothing to do with acting. It’s my role as the daughter of the late Jack Delany.My dad was a man of many interests- business, skiing, architecture, dancing and silly jokes. But most of all, movies- my best memories are of sitting in the theater next to my dad. I am an actor because of my father.
Like too many other people, my father was gone way too soon. He was only 56 when he died of pancreatic cancer on March 18th, 1981. I was 25 when I lost the most favorite man of my life. I did what he would want me to do—I studied hard, followed my dream to be an actor, and have honored his memory every day since.
Last year, when I saw Patrick Swayze speak so eloquently at the ground breaking Stand Up to Cancer event about his heroic battle against pancreatic cancer, I saw my father. They were the same age. When my dad was diagnosed 29 years ago, he was given only 3 months to live because there were few effective treatments available. How is it possible that there are still no early detection methods or diagnostic tests? How is it possible that successful treatment is still very limited for this devastating form of cancer?
Patrick reminded me that we haven’t made enough progress on finding a cure for pancreatic cancer. Unlike so many of the other leading cancer killers—breast, colon or prostate— we have made very few medical advances that could have led to early detection methods, improved treatments and better odds of survival. That’s because pancreatic cancer is not only the 4th leading cause of cancer death in the U.S., but also the most overlooked and ignored disease of the top five leading cancer killers.
We haven’t made enough progress because people don’t often think about pancreatic cancer until it happens to them, a friend, a high-profile person, or a loved one. We need more people to know about pancreatic cancer, so we can fight it and end it. That starts with all of us speaking out, advocating for more research, and doing whatever we can to provide real hope to patients and their families.
That’s where you and I can make a difference. November is National Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month. I’ve joined with the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network to help people know about pancreatic cancer, learn how to fight it and advocate for the research that we need to end it. This organization represents an incredible community of people that includes: survivors, caregivers, researchers, advocates and volunteers. Many people know the power that one unified voice can make. We can all make significant progress together, by raising awareness and inspiring more national support.
You can also read the rest of the letter by clicking below, but it felt better for me to read it on the pancan website. I’m sure you’ll feel the same.
There are 3 other sneak peeks but only one with Dana, you can view the others on http://desperatefans.org/
This promo aired during the American Music Awards last night.
Dana was last night around in LA, joining her cast member Felicity Huffman, at an event which was cohosted by Felicity herself. Also, Marc Cherry was there.
And everytime I see Dana wearing that dress, I haven’t seen it in over a year by the way, she has the same problem with that strap.
Also known as the day this webmiss went nuts and decided to upload all the photoshoots she had left in a folder in an external hard drive, but I do have more in other folders haha. So this update with 20 different photoshoots, goes between China Beach days until last year. Enjoy!
