Mark this date on your calendar. A year from now, when you are saying "Gee, hotrod.vox.com turned into a celebrity gossip blog so gradually I didn't even notice" I want you to remember March 15, 2010.
In other news: move over Zooey, you were always my second choice anyway. Kate Winslet is single again. Now's the chance I've been waiting for to make my move!
be noted this is the seventh time the tag the future mrs. hotrod has graced the pages of HotRod FTW; tag distributed among five lovely women.
so Kate, dear, don't come running to DC. the boy is fickle.

I've only been fickle because Kate has been married for the past seven years. She was my first choice all along.
Posted by: hotrod | March 15, 2010 at 05:06 PM
Zooey and Sarah S. are the odds favorites.
Posted by: mariser | March 15, 2010 at 05:12 PM
so you want to be, what, the third Mr. Winslet? Are you going to become a Big Hollywood Director? Because she won't marry you if you're not. hate to break the news. You need to start on your KttD documentary and have it readyfor Sundance. That way she'll snuggle up to you next to the firs in Park City and you can sing badly to her.

firs = FIRE.

Third time is the charm, right? I'll become a big-shot director if that's what it takes. If Kevin Smith can make a career out of it, I sure as shit can.

I like "firs" better. picture HR and Kate wearing bulky wool sweaters walking and cuddling among the firs. singing badly

Poor Neko is crushed now.

Single women everywhere are crushed that Hotrod has taken his Grade-A loins off the market.

Jealous much?
Posted by: hotrod | March 15, 2010 at 07:54 PM
Oh yeah. I'm on 24-hour suicide watch.
Posted by: Jodi | March 15, 2010 at 07:57 PM
I just wish that SOMEDAY Kate would do a nude scene.
Posted by: FS | March 16, 2010 at 10:20 AM
Didn't she do that in Jude?
Hotrod, can I be in your movie?
Posted by: homebody | March 16, 2010 at 02:08 PM
She does it in pretty much every movie.
Posted by: FS | March 16, 2010 at 02:27 PM
Ah! I really only know her from frock flics. Marianne Dashwood may have behaved slightly scandalously in other ways, but didn't let her lace slip down.

Hotrod, can I be in your movie?
Of course. All I have to do now is write it, secure financing, and figure out how to be a director of major motion pictures. Should be a piece of cake. We'll open on June 1, 2012.
Posted by: hotrod | March 16, 2010 at 05:24 PM
You already are a director.
Posted by: kvriez | March 16, 2010 at 09:55 PM
She doesn't need to know the "of planning" part.
Posted by: kvriez | March 16, 2010 at 09:56 PM
HA. True enough.
Posted by: hotrod | March 17, 2010 at 12:04 PM
I hear Sandra Bullock is free now, too. This could be a seriously intersting sandwich, if you know what I mean.
...and I'm pretty sure you do.
