From today's (Sunday, Oct. 19th) Vancouver Province gossip column:

Check out the ad in tomorrow's Province.

The No. 5 Orange, Vancouver's premier "show lounge" is shutting the door on
a certain drizzlehead.

"Hey, David Duchovny. After all we've done for you -- you're barred," the
Sports section ad will say. "Believe it, if you show your face in here
we'll throw you out."

Owner Tony Ricci tells me he's dead serious:

"Absolutely. He's barred. He came in once in a while with his entourage but
enough of that crap. We don't want him.'

At this point I'm trying to imagine Duchovny sitting up close shouting:
"Shower! Shower!"

"He wasn't as quiet as you might think but he wasn't boisterous either,"
says Ricci. "The girls used to be all over him."

Now Ricci has contacted other pubs, restaurants, taxi companies, dry
cleaners, etc., asking them to support the Duchovny ban.

Dear oh dear. It looks as though the poor guy is about to be run out of
town. I guess he'll just have to put in an appeal to his close personal
friend, Mayor Jacques McDonald.

I'm with you on this one. Althought many of DD's actions often irritate
me, I find this news to be almost ludicrous! DD's intentions are good (he
wants to be near his wife is the bottom line) , albeit he must have known that
his ultimatum was going to cause some unrest among Vancouverites. Still, I'm
shocked and dismayed at the response from some of these people!

Oh my goddess, this has to be the most pathetic thing I have ever seen in
my life. Grow UP Vancouver!

What does that strip club owner and most people who wrote into that paper
think they're up to?
Ahh, Hello bandwagon, could you slow down a little while we all jump on
you.

I am just wondering why in the hell this is even IN the newspaper...Is David
Duchovny *really* that important in Vancouver that he is in the friggin paper
every other day? Geez...

Hey, whatever it takes to keep the group alive! (Beyond the textbook and medical marijuana adds of course...)

FWIW
