Posted 10/04/2008 at 11:26:36 AMActually, I can't really find much evidence that people are really searching for that. According to google toolbar, which ranks the top searches of the week according to whatever letters you type in, this isn't even close. You have to type "james ea" before you get that search term, and even then it's number nine on the list.

Posted 10/05/2008 at 04:51:29 PMIm so relieved to find out that he is alive. People please start putting out positive news for a change. And if your not sure of something KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!!!
Posted 10/07/2008 at 08:30:01 PMI thought that he may have been dead because I saw half a thing go by on him on the bottom of CNN. I don't remember what it said, but it was in past tense, suggesting that he was no longer with us. Turns out it he's getting a SAG Lifetime achievement award in January.
