    OH MY GOD!!!!

    Some people had said it was Nico before, and it sure looks like her, but in every still I've seen from that film she had her hair down. But I did some more digging and found some shots with her hair up, and also with the other two actors. THAT'S IT!

    You are my super-mega-hero forever!

    Awesome.

    I just this second realized that your name is "Uncle Vinny", not "Un-Clevinny", which makes no sense.

    Have your movie-nerd girlfriend watch this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TQ6PYS2Q0I

    (The song is great but nothing to do with the clip).

    It's from a silent film clip (the film is presumably not silent, but the clip I have is) and it is DRIVING ME CRAZY.

    For the uninitiated, you can plug very precise decimalized Lat. and Long. numbers into Google Maps, Latitude first, separated by a comma. Plug 47.6825976,152.969 in and you get Rasshua.

    Shilshole is at approximately longitude -122.40434, depending on what slip you're in.

    Ah, but our friend has left not from downtown but from Shilshole Marina, with a latitude of 47.6825976, which at a longitude of 152.969 has him running aground on the very southern tip of Rasshua.

    I cannot be defeated, Mistah Campbell.

    Who is this actress?

  • What is directly across the Pacific Ocean from Seattle?

    Not so bleedin' fast, Russ Campbell!

    You'd miss the Aleutians by quite a bit but you'd have to thread very carefully through the Kurile (or Kuril) Islands, which extend down from the (Russian) Kamchatka Peninsula (well-known to anyone who's ever played Risk) to the northernmost Japanese island of Hokkaido, forming the Sea of Okhotsk behind it towards Sakhalin.

    My globe puts Seattle at about the latitude of the island of Onekotan, but Wikipedia says that according to that latitude of 47°36' N you'd hit further south, at the island of Ketoy, though if you did a little shimmy you might pass between Ketoy and Simushir just to the south.

    Both of these islands are uninhabited, and only a few thousand live in all 56 of the Kuriles combined, but they've been a bone of contention between Japan and Russia since 1875 at least.

    Pshaw. Seattle should be "Wanda".
