Snubbing Nicolas Cage
Kudos to Bryan and Zack, readers who noticed how I left out Nicolas Cage from my blog about Best Actor winners from Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Of course, I did this intentionally to gauge the depth of pop-culture knowledge among the readers.
OK, I actually just screwed it up. But yes, Nic Cage was in Fast Times. He was billed as Nicolas Coppola in his portrayal of Brad Hamilton's buddy. It was a modest start to a career that would include a Best Actor Oscar for Leaving Las Vegas.
Kudos to Bryan and Zack, who win a Humor Me prize pack that includes my heartfelt appreciation and prizes to be named later if a sponsor wants to donate something. I also have a dollar off coupon for a Quizno's sub if either Bryan or Zack would like to claim it.
