Here's some blogger news: Did you know part of the movie Marley and Me was filmed in the newsroom at the Sun Sentinel, because John Grogan, the author of the book was a columnist here?

Marcia 'Bargain Hunter' Pounds and myself (no-nickname-yet-Kathy) were background artists (extras) in the movie, so we were invited to a local screening this week. The movie was great, and here we are pictured with Marley and our co-worker and friend Kathy, who was the real life dog-sitter featured in the book and the movie. L-R: Kathy Laskowski, Marcia Pounds, Kathy Haines

You can see Marcia in the scene where Grogan says good-bye to his editor at the Sun-Sentinel when he takes a job in Philadelpia. No-nickname-yet-Kathy was the 'girl on the cutting room floor.'

Hey, how 'bout sending me some nickname suggestions? Be kind, please. Around here they already call me 'Coupon Kathy' and 'the eBay Queen,' but those aren't good blogger names, are they?
