I goggle for you, baby



The strangest part of today's news is this paragraph about Wesley Snipes' court case for tax fraud, which comes to us from the Indystar.com, "Indiana's No. 1 Local Media Site":

Snipes appeared two months after he was indicted in central Florida, and then promptly left for the African nation of Namibia to finish filming a cowboy movie. U.S. Magistrate Gary Jones gave him until Jan. 10 to return to his home in Marina del Rey, Calif., when Snipes will have to surrender his passport.
*sings*

"One of these things is not like the other; one of these things is kinda the same. Can guess which kid is doing his own thing?"

The correct answer is not: he's filming a cowboy movie; he's been let out of the country despite normally having to surrender his passport; he lives in Marina del Rey (*shudder*); his judge's name is Gary Jones.

The correct answer is:

Snipes [...] promptly left for [...] Namibia to finish filming a cowboy movie.
*goggle*

He's filming a cowboy movie in Namibia? Is this the latest version of the "spaghetti western"?

Also, he is starting to resemble both Mr Clean crossed with another veteran African-American actor in this photo, which accompanied the story in question.

Thanks, ginmar!
