Johnny in Lockport compliments of Tiffany (aka Lawgirl)
Sheesh!
You would think that someone who used to be a video editing professional could get one lousy video uploaded to blogger... Apparently such is not the case, I'll head over to You Tube when I get back tonight and upload. (Yes Johnny is in the video!) For now, I'll just let the pics speak for themselves and commentate later, ciao! ; )
Hi Gabby! Thanks for filling me in on all that happened before we got there. You would think that someone who used to be a video editing professional could get one lousy video uploaded to blogger... Apparently such is not the case, I'll head over to You Tube when I get back tonight and upload. (Yes Johnny is in the video!) For now, I'll just let the pics speak for themselves and commentate later, ciao! ; )
I hope in the end it was worth the wait for you! I can't wait to hear YOUR story!
Group shot, compliments of Tiffany!
Sexy, Doc, very sexy!
My buddy Evan, I love you man!
Had a ton of fun hanging around waiting for Johnny to wrap! It was hot, hot, HOT! Apparently local businesses were saving their bathrooms form the crowds (who can blame them?) But Tiffany (lawgirl) pulled some strings for Evan and Osh, and that's all I'm gonna say about that!... ; )
Go Jerry!
My heart almost stopped beating when he stopped RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!! Tiffany flagged him down and pointed at me (I had a 'thank you' gift I wanted to give Jerry) I think Jerry thought she was pointing at the little boy in front of me. I was soo touched when he crouched down and had a very meaningful conversation with him about his favorite movies and his favorite lines in those movies. It was sooo cute and the little boy was very articulate too! As he finished talking to the boy, I handed him my gift bag. He goes, "What's this?" I said "It's for you Jerry." He pulls the item out of the bag which was a picture frame with 2 pics of our special moment when I got my machete sheath autographed. I had autographed the pic for him and wrote a short note of appreciation on it. His smile of recognition was SO BIG, it really warmed my heart! He turned , started to walk away, then turned back and said, "No bribes ladies..." Ladies plural... = ) It seems he recognized all of us! hmmm....
These are the notes written to Johnny by Movie Star Wife's little girls. They were soo cute! She did get to hand them directly to Jerry after she'd had HER moment with Johnny. This brings me to my sad moment of the evening. The one thing I had in mind as my goal for the day was to make sure that Dawn had her Johnny moment documented as a keepsake. Well, I failed in this goal and actually feel a little ashamed about it. I stood in that spot on the line for most of the day to ensure it would happen. At the very end (near the time JD was getting ready to come out) someone who's name I will not mention decided it would be cool to push her way to the front of the line and encroach upon our spot. At one point she actually said to me, "I hope I'm not crowding you." To which I replied, "Actually you are, a little." (She was touching the backs of my calves, thighs, bottom and side all at the same time, ewww...) She kind of laughed it off like it was a joke and I just let it go. I am pretty claustrophobic and it takes a lot of mental energy to be in a crowd like that anyhow. I was glad I said something at least, and she did move a little but I wish I could be more assertive at times like that and say something like, "Hey, if you wanted this spot, you could have stood here all day and saved it too, now go find another spot." But that's not me... and I'm not proud of it! ; (
So, as the moments wore on, I gave in a bit more, and then some more and finally I was behind all my friends and ended up with this crappy video of the backs of their heads... The part that upsets me is not that this person did this, it's that I LET IT GET TO ME! The fact that I gave her the power to ruin a special moment in time is what really grates on me... Sheesh, get over it already! (says me to myself! LOL)
After it as all over, we took off and stopped at Denny's to help us get our blood sugar back on the map! We did have a lot of laughs there, and Evan supplied us with this one which still makes me chuckle! (Minxie you are always with us even when you aren't...)
Another FUN moment was when we stopped at one of the Oasis' to use the restroom. One of the automatic toilets chose the moment my FRIEND sat down to turn into a bidet instead of a toilet! She screamed so loud! Then the thing just kept on flushing at odd moments... We laughed sooo hard, I had tears in my eyes and my stomach still hurts from all the hysterical laughing and no breathing. OMG!!
All in all, it was a great experience and I am long over my sad moment. Now I just keep remembering the smile on Jerry's face......

Depp Poachers ruin Sparey photos... UHHHHH!!!
Hi Shakes!!!! Love the pics!!!! Good luck with the video.... I was able to load my George Michael, but they are only 15 seconds long...;)
Thanks for taking "flat Minxie" I am sure she had a blast!!! And thanks to MSW for keeping her safe in the purse!!!!
Glad you all had a great time!!!! Sunday is for catching up on sleep!!! Hell, I can sleep when I die! =0P
Hugs
Hey, have Tiffany email me some pics! I don't have her addy...
pleases and thanksies!
Oh, Shaken,
I wish I could've been with you that night, and you with us last night.
One of these days we'll get to hang!
Maybe a Kurth's night with swapping of pics!!
Great post today! Luv it! (Mrs. Lovett?) haha
Lawgirl, nice seeing you again... :) Well for me, was the first time, not JD tho!
I guys. I have sent Marcella and Osh pics. If anyone else wants some please email me at ttslaw@yahoo.com. I don't know what happened to my lawgirl account. It is asking for my password, and it is not working. I always use the same variation of passwords so I am very confused. Does anyone know how to find your password if you can't remember it?
Hi Cybermom!! I love it!!
Hi Betty!
I am just dying to watch your video again. I want to remember better. Thanks again. I have some pics I can e-mail you.
How was the wedding?
I was in the Dells and didn't get home until 11:00pm. The tiredness finally hit me really hard last night. Have a great day!
Sorry Rach, no idea who Sparrey is, not on my radar! lol
Minx, you've been more places with me than you know... details later!
MSW! You've got mail! ; ) I'll send you some pics too as soon as this video finishes...
Peg: I'm pretty sure you are real... I hope to prove it one of these days ;) When you iploaded your YouTube vids was it a lot quicker than Blogger?
Right back at you Tamara!
Tiff!! Did you get your account fixed?!?! scarey...
You know Sparey... Buck :)
i don't think I know Buck either... I'm such a loser!
I'll find a picture and email it to you ! You will totally know Sparey. Osh and I have fought about him. He is OMW!!
Hi Shakes! It makes me really MAD to hear that someone took your spot after you had been standing there all day. I would have been totally pissed off!! GRRR!! THAT MAKES ME MAD!!
But I am sooooo glad you got to give your special gift to Jerry :) I bet that smile of his was wonderful.
Its sound like all in all you had a good time! I'm happy for you and everyone that got to meet JD one last time. (Except for the person that budged you.) :P
dj! you are sooo sweet! I blame myself though... I didn't have to MOVE! duh...
Rach - OMW, eh???
NICE VIDEO! I am actually in it for like 2 seconds LMAO! I will miss all the JD fun!
I know Doc! I was LMAO too, I got everyone's backsides... ; )
GREAT video Shakes!!!! Oh and Marcella kissed him!!!!! WOW!!!!
I am gonna try for LA tomorrow.... any have any tips for me?
"Minx, you've been more places with me than you know... details later!"
Ok my curiosity is at attention now.... LOL.... please doooo tell! ;)
No Shakes, I did not get my account fixed, I had to redo it.
I just watched the video, and it makes my heart melt because I can see the exact moment when we made eye contact. He's soo dreamy!!
O.K. I don't get it. On the video it looks like he was only with me for a second. In reality, it felt like a few minutes. Hee Hee. Now how do I get a copy of it to keep?
Thanks!
I just looked at the video...it was seconds. Evan had said he doesn't think Johnny even knew who he was.
And Dawn, I know what you mean, in Columbus, he rubbed my arm for at least an hour.
Damn Depp Poachers. Why are we so timid?
You know I wasn't going to say anything, but I thought that it looked like he went through the line much faster in that video than he did when we met him in Columbus--but then again it could just could be my imagination.
I think time stood still for me too! :)
Time takes on weird qualities when you are under the Depp Effect...
MSW, I will make you a copy!
Don't think i have the equip to burn anything on this machine tho... it will give me incentive to fix the laptop if that is even possible! LOL
He did go fast DJ, and the time Vicky and I were in Chicago...
It is my personal and professionl opinion that Mr Depp is much more relaxed in Wisconsin. He is a Happy Cow.
MSW-if you go to YouTube you can download it from there. It may make it easier on Shakes. I downloaded mine from there.
I know what you guys mean about the time. It seems so much faster on the video than in real life.
Thanks Tiffany! Feel free Dawn! Yeah, I'm a little computer challenged right now as you saw when you were here... LOL!
Nice pic! =)
this is crazy! a gal on another board I am friends with has family in St. Anne's! LOL!
She is the one who thought I would never meet JD. Ever.
Shake, thanks so much for sharing your video. I'm so glad you and your posse had the opportunities to see Johnny. What special memories you have. :)
Thank you so much for sharing them with all of us who couldn't be there to see him or meet him in person.
C
Oh my gosh! Than YOU Christine! You hve helped sooo much to make all of this real for me. I have so much appreciated how much efort you put into sharing the real historical facts, and the stories behind the stories (esp the women!) That has made it all so much more special for me ;)
Just a random ? but how does one download stuff from youtube? I didn't know that was possible!
I learn something new everyday on the blogs :)
Shakes - love your video. Hugs sweetie!!
Hey Rach!
