I almost fell off my chair reading that call in a friend's Facebook wall. A chance to see Edward Norton, in the flesh *drooling*. I'm not ashamed to admit that I've the biggest crush on the guy since high school. Have always adored him, even as a tattoo-ridden, hardened Nazi criminal in American History X, or the cunning psychopath in Primal Fear. Now if I could only get Jigs to approve of this stint with my 6 1/2 month-pregnant belly.

Until then, I'll see you in my dreams, Edward Norton. Sigh.
