Naked Radcliffe Craves Onstage "Boost"

Daniel Radcliffe, the "Harry Potter" star who is currently making his Broadway debut in the acclaimed revival of Equus, will appear on Bravo's "Inside the Actors Studio" in December.

James Lipton will chat with the young actor on the Dec. 1 broadcast of the Emmy-nominated series. Broadcast time is 8 PM ET; check local listings. (watch excerpt below)

Equus, which co-stars Radcliffe and Richard Griffiths, is playing a limited engagement at the Broadhurst Theatre through Feb. 8, 2009.



In Equus, "psychiatrist Martin Dysart investigates the blinding of six horses, a savage act committed by an unassuming 17-year-old stable boy, Alan Strang, whose family life is rife with bigotry and religious fervor. As Dysart exposes the truths behind the boy's demons, he finds himself face-to-face with his own." Playwright Shaffer based the play on a true story told to him by a friend.

Henry Merritt "Hank" Paulson Jr.


The first time I heard of Hank Paulson, I was foggy mentally and could only think of Pat Paulsen, of the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour ... you know, the one who ran for president in his weekly time spot. (see photo left). As I continued to find out about him, I figured that we would have probably been better with Pat rather than Hank.

However, when I finally saw him in a news conference, I said.. OMG! It is Col. Klink!

With no offense to the fine actor who superbly portrayed the bumbling, clueless Nazi, remove the Nazi Uniform and the Nazi political mindset, and you have Paulson. He is clueless and in my opinion, is making our already unstable, failing economy worse. Flailing between ideas much like McCain did when he put his Presidential campaign on hold, his inability to communicate his intentions, or even the current problem to the American Public, this man needs to leave Washington via a mob ready with tar and feathers.

Rachel Maddow this evening on her MSNBC show called Hank Paulson Mr. Magoo. I can see where she is going with that.

I still think we would have been better with Pat Paulsen.

Disturbing thought.

Looks like everything I have planted so far has come up!
