Starbucks has got to be one of my favorite places to overhear funny stuff.

A woman with a very small child was talking to her male friend. She was ranting about Daniel Radcliffe's "controversial" role in the play "Equus." How a 17-year-old shouldn't be nude, and for god's sake he was Harry Potter and how was she going to explain this to her seven-year-old daughter and Harry Potter shouldn't be naked and she was never going to see the next Harry Potter movie and her daughter wouldn't either.
The little girl, whose eyes had been getting wider and wider, face paler and paler, tugged on Mom's coat and gasped. "But Mom, I wanna see the new movie! That's not fair!"
The mother looked at her and said, "But honey, Harry Potter is tainted now. He got naked with a horse, remember?"
The child shook her head. "No, Mommy, that's not Harry. That's Daniel. His name is Daniel. He's just an actor. Besides, in the play he doesn't have glasses or a wand and he doesn't say spells. He looks different. It's not going to affect how he plays Harry Potter because it's not Harry Potter. You can't stop me from seeing the movie just because the actor did a play and he wasn't Harry. Besides, we don't have to see that play! And anyway, I'm not old enough."
The mother couldn't say anything. The man, in the meantime, was trying not to laugh. Mom just grabbed her coffee, took her daughter by the hand, and the three of them walked out in silence.

Ahh, the wisdom of children. Beautiful, isn't it?

Seriously, people, if you cannot distinguish between an actor and a character like that, something is very wrong.

OMG Heroes

Anyone who does not want me to shamelessly spoil tonight's "Heroes" episode, say so now, because oh damn. My idea about the identity of Claire's real father was right after all. I actually punched the air and yelled "YES! It IS him! I KNEW IT!" I have no shame, no.

Next week's episode is supposed to be even better. It just keeps getting better. I can't believe how good it is. This is the only show I have ever gotten so worked up about, aside from "Buffy".
