While I was home I got a scan of this photo that my parents got from my grandparents. It’s of a mountain man called Skookum who used to show up in the Lolo Valley where my great-grandfather, Jay Gitchel, was a homesteader. I don’t really know anything about Skookum but Jay wrote a book called “We Bet Our Lives” about his homesteading experiences. I read it in sixth grade and thought it was quite entertaining then.

Friday, November 9th, 2001“Shallow Hal” opens today and it stars the man who has inspired statements like “Jack Black is literally the most unobstructed fire hose of white-hot mega-talent I have ever known or seen” and “Black, in his first big-time starring role, struts through with the blissful confidence of a man who knows he was born for stardom.” So is Jack Black’s stardom really preordained? I can’t wait to see where his career goes.
