I don't know if any of you have seen "The Patriot" yet, but our friend Odo is in it.

Just passing that along...

Goddamnit! I have yet to see that damned IBM commercial....

I saw the movie a few days ago...sorry for not mentioning it.

He actually had a pretty significant role...

Oooh, I have to see that movie now!

Fabrux: That's TWO IBM commercials. I saw two different ones with Brooks in it.

He does have a real name you know, even if no one can ever remember how to spell it.

(Ahem)...."Auberjonois. A-U-B-E-R-J-O-N-O-I-S. Auberjonois."

Heh...that's what his son Remy used t'do when people tied to spell it at camp. Even now, 15 years later, I hear him saying it in the back of my mind.

Posted by Dat (Member # 302) on :

Actually I think there's been at least 4 or 5 IBM commericials that he's done.

And Rene Auberjonois is prononced: Ren-nay Oh-bear-zhen-wah for those who still don't know how to pronounce it.

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

Ah. I always wondered if he pronounced it the real way, or if it was like "avoirdupois" or "DuBois", &c.

Let's see... How many IBM commercials is Avery Brooks in...? There's the "epiphany" one. The "Libraries of Congress per second" one. The "you're going to need some serious software" one. Apparently, there's one about flying cars (I haven't seen it, though it may have been the one I caught a second of and knew it was one I hadn't seen). Any others?

Okay, maybe it's three. I'm sure I've seen all of the ones TSN mentioned. And it's in the flying cars one that he mentions at the end "You don't NEED flying cars, but you're going to need some serious software." Or something along those lines.

Shik: How do you know Rene's son??

I'm hoping to capture the flying cars one on cassette or something... I LOVE that quote. Perfect sig material.

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

I haven't seen the flying car one, so there must be another one w/ "serious software". And the "gigabyte, terabyte, &c." one is the "Libraries of Congress per second" one.

Ziyal: I think Shik might have been making a joke... :-)

Posted by Shik (Member # 343) on :

Actually, no, I wasn't joking. When I was a kid, I went to summer camp in Vermont with Remy for a couple years; we were in the same bunk. A bunch of famous people had sent their kids there: Theodore Bikel's son Dan was there (as as his other who's name I can't remember), Nicky Corman (son of "Oh, God!" writer Avery Corman), Max Frey (Glenn's son) & a couple years, we had Sean Lennon in our bunk. Yeah, THAT Sean Lennon. No, I DON'T want to talk about it.

I ran into Rene at the winter reunion one year--literally. I was like 8 or 9 & I was headed to the bathroom & wonked full tilt into him as he was leaving & we came around the corner. Later on, he sat with our bunk at the table & told us stories & whatnot. At the time, I think "Benson" had just left the air, but I'm not sure. What I do remember was that he wasn't "actor Rene Auberjonois," but just "Remy's dad." Way bitchin'.

No...I don't see anyone from camp, anymore. A pity, really...my sex life was so much more fun then. Hell, it EXISTED. I doubt he (Remy) would remember me if I happened to run into him, but I bet all I'd have t'say is, "we were at Killoleet together" & he'd know what I meant.

Didn't you say you were 8 or 9 years old when you were there?

Posted by Shik (Member # 343) on :

Yes, I did. Of course, I wentto summer camp every year from when I was 8 to 16. When I was 9, there was this 14-year-old girl from Utah...one day, we--yeah. Never mind.

Ah...no, I'm not. And in the interest of decorum, I think this line of questioning should cease here. Publicly, that is. If you absolutely MUST know about this ("I must, I must...!"), then there's always email.

I don't know, this is the Lounge, and we are a rather desperate lot.

This reminds me of that episode of Red Dwarf.

"I was so excited I nearly dropped my skateboard."

"Skateboard?! How old were you?"

"12."

Posted by Shik (Member # 343) on :

Oh, well, in THAT case...!

Yeah, I was 9. And in the next 8 years, I was used an a nasty little sexual plaything. Maybe that's why since 1993, I've only had 3 short-term partners--the Universe is letting everyone else catch up.

Or maybe it's because I'm quite the poor grubby-looking bastard.
