I love Johnny Depp

[imwalde]

From the Rolling Stone interview with Johnny Depp, in the July 13-27 issue:

[RS] When people talk about your portrayal of Jack Sparrow, they generally mention Keith [Richards] but also point out a certain gay undercurrent.

[JD] Well, there was a great book that I read. What was it called? Sodomy and the Pirate Tradition. A very interesting book. I wasn't exactly going for that with the character. And Keith is not flamboyant in his actions. Keith is pretty stealth. But with Jack, it was more that I liked the idea of being ambiguous, of taking this character and making everything a little bit...questionable. Because women were thought to be bad luck on ships. And these pirates would go out for years at a time. So, you know, there is a possibility that one thing might lead to another.

[RS] Could happen.

[JD] You're lonely. You have an extra ration of rum. *shrugs* "Cabin boy!"

Heeeee.

In other news, I hate tourists who make me miss a Metro I'm trying to catch because they are dumb. STAND RIGHT, WALK LEFT, MOTHERFUCKERS! Next time, I'm shoving them down the damn escalator. Welcome to DC, bitches!

Agreed! Also, there's a level of confusion on top of the rage -- why was no one else hustling? Did they not see the train? Why was I the only one who didn't want to wait in the sauna that is the DC Metro system in the summer for 15 minutes when the train was right there?!?! Did they *not* want to catch the train? MOVE IT OR LOSE IT, PEOPLE.
