Reminds me of a story I heard about Christopher Walken...

A friend of mine was involved in a production called "Shakespeare in the Park" in Central Park... Walken was a cast member.

A short time before the show was to start, no one could locate him.

They ended up finding him, standing in a pond, almost fully submerged, with only the top half of his face exposed (nose and up).

At one point he lifted his head enough to expose his mouth, and calmly explained..."Today, I am an alligator"... and then slowly re-submerged.

The rest of the cast: "Come on let's go, the show starts in 10 minutes!"

The director: "Didn't you hear the man? He said he's a god damn alligator today, leave him alone! That's Christopher fucking Walken! Get him more cowbell!"

"I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell"

I just saw this episode for the first time yesterday. I laughed so much I cried, especially when Jimmy Fallon was unable to keep it together about halfway through - thanks for the reminder to watch that again tonite :)

Owl translate to chinese is 猫头鹰. But, if you took the individual characters and translate each literally, it means "Cat-Headed Eagle." Just an interesting thought.

[–]vintermann 2 points3 points ago

Verified with Google translate.

Google translate, however, also translates 头鹰 as "falcon" and 猫头 as "Oxytropis". Can you comment on whether that's correct?
