I saw Eriq LaSalle -- 4 points
| Though I have been lax and neglected to rate a couple sightings, I did see ex-ER star Eriq LaSalle driving on Sunset today, so here goes... |  |
5 points to start (like the 200 you get for writing your name on the SAT's -- that must be 300 points now.)
-1 because he was driving in his car -- never good for sightings.
-1 for being too cliche: Hollywood celeb in sunglasses driving a convertible on Sunset Boulevard.
-1 for being my 2nd ER sighting in a month.
+2, though, because when I think ER, I picture him doing his Guts Pose at the end of the opening titles (back when the show was good).
*Note: "Guts Pose" is a Japanese term for an emphatic fist-pump. +1 again because when I searched on Yahoo for images of "Guts Pose", his picture from ER came up. No joke.
-1 Star Wars factor.
Final score: 4 points.

If I were rating it, I would have given him a -1 (or even a -2) for the guts pose, which I find extremely dorky. Allison and I used to laugh about it all the time. Maybe this is a difference between men and women?+

You are nuts. +2 or more for the Guts Pose. That jabbing fist. That joy and determination at the same time. It is an inspired two seconds of television. It completely eclipses his phenomenal performance in Coming to America!
