It's been fun to see twitter and FB abuzz again for the MvW episode!

Repeating today's CZ sighting:

LarchmontLA: Spotted this evening by @nataliergomez at Cafe Gratitude on Larchmont: Jake Gyllenhaal

I didn't realize this was the set up at Cafe Gratitude:

Had dinner with Jake Gyllenhaal tonight - okay, almost true- but we were at the same communal table, so that counts, right?

thanks UV just biding my time till man vs wild starts

UltraViolet said...

Enjoy, Mary! I'm waiting for the Red Sox to win this game. Or for someone just to score! It's 0-0 in the 13th inning.

Funny story about Jake at the Cafe Gratitude in SFO last year:

This report from a tablehopper reader was so cleverly written that I’m just gonna post it verbatim: “Just had lunch at Cafe Gratitude en la Mission and ~Jake Gyllenhaal~ was there with a small group of people who looked very non-crunchy SF. Everyone was cool in the restaurant till he got up to leave, and then there was a flutter of folks trying to talk to him. Best was the chick in the “Ask me about Slow Sex” shirt who went up to introduce herself and talk about….? Ah, I love San Francisco. He’s so yummy, I know it sounds cashew-cheesy but I hope he ordered the ‘I am beautiful.’” Amen, sister.

I don't remember that sighting, but it may have been posted.

UltraViolet said...

She's obviously a woman of great intelligence :)

bobbyanna said...

Thanks for the cool gifs, UV. Watching them do the worms. Yeah. Thanks for that one. ;)

I missed the repeat of M v W.

Hope Boston gets lucky.

The heat wave's coming your way, but we'll have it all week.

Chica said...

These gifs are so much fun, thanks for finding and posting them UV!

I missed the repeat of Man vs Wild last night too:)

I remember that sighting at Cafe Gratitude in SFO, it was posted here last year and that woman with the t-shirt was smart!

The Red sox won it in the 16th inning!!

It's hot as hell here in NY as well, I'm off today so at least I won't be out in that oven today.

mary said...

Thanks for the gifs, UV. I have to wonder when Jake went to have his first 'real' meal after his experience in the wilds of Iceland if he kept thinking about that worm :D

Bet he's been getting jokes from his friends about it

"Where'd you get that hat"? LOL!!! Love Jake makng fun of his hat because I hate them!

These gifs are so funny and cool, it looks like the repeat showing is getting just as much response as the first airing:)

Hope everyone is keeping cool!

Monica said...

these gifs are fun. Thanks!

bobbyanna said...

Next time Jake does SNL (bcz he has to do it again!) I hope they do a skit about Bear!

Office of Nancy Pelosi said...

What a great idea Bobbyanna, the episode screams SNL!!!

Love the gifs, Jake sure is getting a lot of good reviews and props for his appearence on Man vs Wild and as he should be.

bobbyanna said...

Hope I don't lose power. Very very dark, and very, very windy, and there's thunder. Lots of thunder.

bobbyanna said...

Well, today was a good day. My power didn't go off. : /.

Chica said...

That's good news Bobbyanna, it's hot as hell here but no on wood, no power outages!

Extra said...

Looking at these gifs and watching the repeat of this episode is sure cooling me off! It is scourching here by me too.

The repeat was a bit different/edited, I'm glad I got to see it the first time w/o the edits!

mary said...

yea extra i noticed that it was edited too glad i saw it the first time

Monica said...

This is annoying. I remember that in Brazil, Sony Channel edited some scenes of him on SNL.

Sheba baby said...

I live the 2nd gif, it's been fun reading and hearing all the great responses from Jake adventures with the Bear!

What is the point of editing the episode? To add more commercials?

That stinks Monica, did you ever get to see the whole unedited episode of Jake on SNL?

mary said...

the parts that i could tell were the peeing in the snow and the bbm reference so maybe thaey had some somplainsso decided so edit those parts out otherwise no changesthat i noticed

sass said...

UV, Thanks for the gifs!
Jake has the most beautiful smile.
I checked my Cable guide...TWC EST...MvW on 2 more times. Friday evening, 7/22 @ 8PM and Saturday morning, 7/23 @ 1AM. How great for us.
UV and fellow babblers, it's wonderful to read compliments for Jake on so many boards. And on some public boards,(JJ), the trolls are chased away. Amazing!

Monica said...

I saw online, Sheba.

Source Code began to be shown in some theaters in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. Day 29 will be the national debut.

On Sunday, I saw Harry Potter. Good movie.

Monica said...
