Victor Garber Has a Comedy Ear

Victor Garber Exhibit A

Victor Garber is one of my favorite actors working. I’ve been following him for years, but (slow on the uptake, true to form) it was only last week when I noticed that he has a comedy ear. Now that I’ve noticed it, I can’t stop noticing it. Several years ago I was stung on the ear by a yellowjacket while mowing the lawn. For days afterward one of my ears was preposterously swollen, but it still registered only an embarassingly distant second to Mssr. Garber’s natural asymmetry. I’m not kidding, I’ve even picked up on the fact that DPs give it special consideration when lighting scenes.

To Whom It May Concern,

There is a pothole in the intersection of W. Broad Street and Staples Mill Road. If one is proceeding through the intersection compass direction South on Staples Mill (33E) and crosses W. Broad Street while in the left hand lane, the pothole will conveniently identify its location to you by jamming your driver’s side front tire into the wheel well, every single damn time.

Best regards,
