Michael gets his turn at playing 007. LOL Henry- International Man of Mystery! He's certainly got the threads for it. god -I am such a pathetic fangirl.

Doesn't it look like something is wrong with the lens on the left? It looks like it is missing an ear piece or something. The guy helping Michael is not from wardrobe (wouldn't they be providing sunglasses?) but from the prop department. Does Ben have some sort of technology secreted in those shades?!!

Michael riding horses, Ben playing the piano. Wonder how many languages Ben speaks? And this is the guy Dharma had working as a janitor. Dharmidiots!

Hello Maeve!

LOL -- well, if you wanna get technical...;0)

The sunglasses, as they stand now, are considered wardrobe. They would be considered prop if he picked them up or something but never put them on. If they just sat on a table and he never picked them up at all or put them on, they would be considered set.

Please note that I only know this because the husband's sister does wardrobe for some cable channels and whenever she gets drunk she complains bitterly about the whole thing. She actually has to sit down with the prop people at the beginning of a shoot and they go over what's prop, what's wardrobe, what's set, etc. She says that sometimes someone from wardrobe will make a mistake and pick up a prop and all hell breaks loose. A few days later the person who made the blunder will get a stern letter in the mail from the union reminding them not to make the mistake again. Bizarre.

Personally, I think that guy should get in trouble because as some of you said, he's strategically blocking some major Michael goodness with that damn mirror. No chest hair and no crotch shot, a double whammy. I guess the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away....

Anyway everyone, take this utterly useless block of knowledge on props, set and wardrobe and stow it in your database, way back with the other junk like lost keys and the names of old boyfriends (or girlfriends). As is typical around this time of the evening, I'm supposed to be working but I keep finding myself back on these boards, running my mouth and tap tap tapping away like Gregory Hines on crack. XD

That all being said, ME in sunglasses is beyond hott.

And this is the guy Dharma had working as a janitor. Dharmidiots!

I'd love to see how he ended up as a janitor; probably was his choice, it provided more cover for his Richard-related activities than if he was a big-shot scientist, nobody would give two thoughts about a janitor. Still one of my very favorite lines ever:

"I did what I had to do. I was one of the one's who was smart enough not to end up in that ditch. Which makes me considerably smarter than you, John!"[blam!]

God I love that scene so much...
