I figure it's the trade off for having a name that pretty much everyone can understand and (usually) spell.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I guess Ebert's not coming back to TV, though.
Aw, shucks. I will miss him. He's not the same in print.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I do think he's a good read, though. He's sometimes so wrong-headed I want to smack him, but I appreciate him for being really good for the kind of critic he is. He looks terrible though! I hope that's just his recovery showing.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
He looks terrible though! I hope that's just his recovery showing.
That's his new jaw - he pretty much had to have the lower half of his face rebuilt from scratch, and the surgeons didn't quite get the chin right.

Compassionately intolerant
Nevermind. I went back and read the article...which helps so much with comprehension!
As I first looked at the photo of Ebert and his wife, I thought to myself, "She looks like an angel." Then, in the article, he calls her 'my angelic wife.' Funny sometimes, how you can judge a book by its cover.
Bless them both.

Oh, I've been avoiding the gory details. Yeah, that pretty much makes sense. Yikes!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
The weird part is, apparently while they were revising his face they gave him lasik. Because I haven't seen him once with his glasses on since the whole cancer saga began, and that is the part that makes me unable to recognize him.
(Maybe they revised his ears so he can't wear glasses any more?)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Maybe he wears them on the show to read the teleprompter. I wouldn't imagine someone his age getting Lasik, since it can't fix presbyopia.
