He's probably a nepo baby from his mom's syrup fortune.

It appears his given name is Jeremy and he just has that weird nickname thing they do in the UK and Australia, where they take the first few letters of a person's name up to the first vowel and replace the rest with a Z.

You have done far more research than I have. I just saw his name on the screen and thought it was awesome.

I clicked his name and checked his IMDB to see if he's done anything else I've heard of. He has (co-)written a lot of things in recent years, including Edge of Tomorrow, Ford v. Ferrari, and the most-recent Indiana Jones movie.

You'll be pleased to know he has many co-writing credits with his brother John-Henry Butterworth, which is an equally strong name.

Apparently his actual name is Jeremy, and he's married to Laura Donnelly.

I was driving my daughter to the Orthodontist the other day. Typical 4 lane road with a median and dedicated left turn lane at an Intersection with a light. This was in St.Albert at Bellerose and Boudreau right where the RCMP Station is. I'm stopped in the right lane to go through the Intersection as I need to turn just as I get through this light to get to the Orthodontist.

I hear a horn blaring in the distance and coming closer. Had a tough time making out where it's coming from, but it was from behind and some guy in an Expedition moves into the left lane and he's got his hand on the horn, passenger window open and seems to be jawing at the car next to me. He stops like a good 40 feet short of the next vehicle in the that turn lane.

Just as the light turns greeen. In front of him, some person in about 20 year old Chev truck (very much like one I just sold in December but different color and a HD model with the Diesel Engine) puts it in reverse and rams his front end, than pulls out of that lane into the lane in front of the woman he was barking at and speeds off. I go through the intersection, call the RCMP and get my daughter to the Orthodontist rather than stop and keep blocking the Intersection as there's already vehicles all around who saw it.

But I am curious what the horn guy was raging at, and as best as I could tell the guy in front who smashed his vehicle was not involved in the original incident. Even the car that was next to me with the woman from what I recall was there well before this guy come into the lane next to her. When I left and went by the other way, I noticed that back of this guys vehicle also looked like it had been plowed into before. So my unfounded accustion is that Expedition guy is completely unstable and maybe had this coming and got hauled off for further evaluation. No one from the RCMP ever called to get my account of this.

I have a client named LaFleur and I sneak random 'Dodgeball' references into our conversations and I think he's starting to catch on.

Has anyone ever actually seen Sliver in person? Perhaps he actually exists in the year 2003 but he can post on a message board like some kind of Twilight Zone episode?

I will also admit to being the old guy who still uses a belt holster for my phone. I have tried a few different ways of just using pockets, etc; but the holster still just works for me.
