[QUOTE=Voyager] BTW, Earl’s car looked a lot cleaner when he got it back - or am I crazy? [/QUOTE] No, you’re not crazy, I noticed that too. I just assumed he got it cleaned up after he bought it back. Or maybe the guy he sold it to fixed it up. ---

[QUOTE=cbawlmer] Paul was played by Max Perlich, who has done a lot of character work over the past 20 years. He played Whistler on _Buffy_. [/QUOTE] THAT’s it. I knew I recognized that guy. Was he um, bald on Buffy? Don’t recall that. ---

[QUOTE=RSSchen] THAT’s it. I knew I recognized that guy. Was he um, bald on Buffy? Don’t recall that. [/QUOTE] He wore a hat on _Buffy_, at least most of the time. The shaved head is more recent though; he probably did it to combat a receding hairline. ---

I assumed that was Tall Maggie’s _dad_, sitting on the couch with her brother and sister. He patted the knee of one of them as if to say, “Yes, you’re freakishly tall, but someday a handsome stranger like Earl might come to dance with _you_, too.” 😃 ---

Remember she’s Earl’s age and the guy looked to be the same age and the kids were teenagers. I saw Max Perlich at the Everything 99cents store a few months ago. A long career does not a rich man make. ---
