I heard that, too. Jeff Goldblum is a card.

And by knowing me, you have only one degree of separation from him. When he and his first wife came to Hollywood, they were briefly my downstairs neighbors. He was in a play but had not yet worked on film. Nice, sweet people, making their own carrot juice in the kitchen.

PS: You also, being the only one so far to have left a reply here, are one in a hundred. In fact, one in a hundred and six. Thanks for your courtesy.

Goldblum really is a multi-talent. His jazz albums are also lots of fun, with fun being the key word.
He just exudes a perfect mix of excitement, weirdness and irony.

I had a meeting with Jeff Goldblum years ago. I told him my wife and kids had just gone out of town for a week, and he went and got the LA Weekly and turned to the "escort" ads and said "Mike, we're going to find somebody for you." He was joking. I think. I've never been certain.
This rings true. My wife was a writer on an ad campaign he worked on; evidently he was hitting on all the women on set.

my first look at Mr. Goldblum was in Invasion of the Body Snatchers and he was great.

Are you sure you didn't see him first in ANNIE HALL? That was his one-line film debut playing a Beverly Hills party-goer on his phone: "I forgot my mantra."

Right you are, Zooba! Thanks for the reminder. As Bob Hope used to sing. (Sort of.)

That's the late Gregory Rozakis as Jeff's partner in crime. Unlike Jeff, he didn't live in my apartment building -- but he lived in the one next door. What are the odds?
