Just a few Hugh facts: at 6' 2 1/2", he is the right height for Ellery. He was born in 1968 so he will be 38 this year...also the right age. Heath, at 27, is young for a 41 year old Ennis, but we know he can be aged well. Besides, love agrees with that boy so he can look like a very young 41, don't you think?

The buff/beefy Hugh seen in some of the these photos apparently is gone. He put on weight/muscle to play Wolverine in the X-Men movie. Now he's lost it all and is  slim and trim to play his current role in "The Boy From Oz." Perfect for us when we snag him to play Ellery!

Hey I am really right about my men aren't I?

Oh wait... I wasn't the one who proposed Hugh was I?  Who WAS THAT?

And Leslie, btw, there were THREE X-Men movies.  Not that I saw any of them, but I am thinking of making a couple of DVD purchases now that I'm a Hughaholic.

And don't let my high humor fool you... it doesn't mean that I'm feeling worse.  I actually haven't been online because I have had an almost-blissful day of sleep and got to the grocery store afterward.  And if my hand is any indication, I think the swelling has gone down.  Most importantly, I am getting through the medication periods.  It could be that this is a function of doubling the antibiotics as well. 

I am hanging out in chat, making some quick Hunan Chicken in a heat-up box on the stove, and I have a lovely fresh watermelon from the Turkish store and some seedless grapes, and if appetite is a measure of health improvement, I'm getting better!

This is young Ennis:



This is older Ennis:



Heath Ledger is an absolute chameleon when it comes to changing how he looks. Just check out all the different scenes in BBM and he sometimes looks like completely different people!

PS. I read that Hugh Jackman studied at the University of Technology, Sydney and I have worked out that I was working there at the same time he would have been a student. Who knows, I could have been sitting next to the young Ellery in the uni cafe without knowing it!

If memory serves, I think it is was DeeDee. She found the Italian guy, first, then I think found Hugh as an alternative to whichever Carradine we were looking at.

I love these, they are quintessential (sp?) E and E to me... to bad they both won't fit in my avatar.
