In the credits, his name is Shaun Chaiyabhat. Chaiyabhat is a Thai name, but he looks white. I’m guessing just one parent was Thai. ---

So you’re into someone who makes noises like a chipmunk when she gets _real_ excited? O…kay. Maybe that turned Phil off given his obvious loathing of all things rodentia. ---

Who would spend a thousand days in a row hitting on somebody pretentious enough to drink to world peace? Hitting on Ned was a better idea. ---

It’s true: that was unattractive. Ramis has said on-camera that he was stunned by Andie MacDowell’s beauty. Guess he was out cold when that part of the script was okayed. ---
