As Dreamers Do Part Deux

That's nice, helping children in need.
Right.

I made a bit of an error. Zoe is actually now 34 and will turn 35 later this year. She specializes in working with trans youth who are in situations similar to what she went through as a teenager back in the Eighties during her father's killing spree.

My personal bias votes for both Raimis and Belushi

If NBC does lose their court battle with United Feature Syndicate, would that mean that Ghostbusters 3 would be delayed to accomodate for one of these three being the new head of SNL?

But if that wasn't a problem, I'd go with John Belushi as the replacement.

I'd say Belushi has the balls to do it better than the rest. Hopefully Ghostbusters 3 can come out smoothly.

"Yes, son. I know bloody well he now lives in America. But he was born here in Britain and his impact on the field of animated cartoons is global. As far as I'm concerned, he has earned that knighthood."​

Arise, Sir Daniel!

Buckingham Palace
London, England
April 14, 2006

Peter Sissons (BBC Newsreader):

"Two days before his 48th birthday, Southampton-born Hollywood animator Daniel Abbott is officially dubbed Sir Daniel Abbott by Her Majesty the Queen. On hand for the honorary accolade were his wife, live action director Rachel who turned 45 last February, son Devon who turned 18 in January, daughter Alyssa who turned 13 last month and niece Rebecca Sugar who turns 19 in July. Also, there were Daniel's siblings and their families, along with just a few of Abbott's colleagues throughout the years, including Richard Williams, Eric Goldberg, Matt Groening, Bruce Timm, Bob Camp, Bob Zemeckis, Tom Ruegger, Kevin Eastman, Seth MacFarlane and Linda Woolverton among others."

Sir Daniel Abbott shortly after the accolade:
"Without a doubt, this is a dream come true."

Excerpt from a World League on NBC telecast.
London Monarchs v. Amsterdam Admirals at Twickenham Stadium (Wembley is currently undergoing a rebuild) on April 15, 2006.

Nick Halling (play by play): "What's that in your hand, Jerry?"

Jerry Glanville (analyst): "This is a caricature of me that I rediscovered while I was rearranging my attic. Back in '77 when I was running the Falcons' Gritz Blitz defense, Sir Daniel Abbott as he's now called, had arrived in Atlanta to work for Ted Turner. During training camp, Bill Tush from the Superstation was interviewing me, and I noticed 19-year-old Danny with a sketchpad drawing caricatures of some of the players and I asked I could have one of myself. Suddenly a ball bounced towards him, and he punted it pretty far with his Chuck Taylors. Years later when he and I collaborated on an Atari game called Pigskin Footbrawl, Sir Daniel said that the Falcons were his first exposure to our American football which he understood pretty easily having grown up with rugby here in England."

One week later after the Abbotts return home to Los Angeles County...

Edd Gould (Creator of Eddsworld; via AOL Instant Messenger):

"Dev, how do you feel having a knight for a dad?"

Devon Abbott (via AOL):
"Here at home, he doesn't act differently from before. He already gets the royal treatment when we're out in public so yeah."​
