Criminal Minds Cast: Matthew Gray Gubler

Matthew Gray Gubler plays Dr. Spencer Reid in the CBS TV Series Criminal Minds. In an earlier post, I gave a link to the mockumentaries he and friends made and uploaded to youtube under the username andyswan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2Ll4LAoeZE

Matthew's acting career is just the latest of his endeavors. He was a distinguished film student at NYU, and it looks like down time on the set of criminal minds had him itching to do some filming of his own just for fun. He also directed a music video for Whirlwind - Heat.

He is a painter. His paintings have been exhibited and were sold out at the Ostravia Art Gallery in Czechoslovakia.

He insists on making his website full of his own doodles and sketches, cramming all into one, albeit long, page: http://www.matthewgraygubler.com/


The pictures above and below look nowhere near geeky Dr. Spencer Reid. They're from his modelling stints before he accidentally got into acting. He is still listed in dna model management's website:

Criminal Minds: KIRSTEN'S BLOG

Kirsten Vangsness plays Penelope Garcia on the TV series Criminal Minds. Since Garcia's the computer geek in this show about the FBI-BAU, CBS has decided to give her a page on the website.

Kirsten's blog started February 2007, and shows some insights on the personalities of the actors playing the main characters.

Kirsten was a comedic actress who had appeared in numerous theater productions previous to her stint in Criminal Minds. She returns to theater when on break from the TV Series. As you can see in this photo, she is right when she says on her blog that she has taken better pictures.

Short story: The Gieke Identity

Just in case the Sims2 website culls my story, I placed a copy on my Orangeade blog. Click on the picture above to read it.

Why getting drunk is not a good idea.

This was a hit in the dealing room when I first showed it to them last January:



Hopefully, the people in the clip don't mind that this is on YouTube... the settings are "private" and not "public" anyway.

Shake that Booty

Signed up to YouTube and tried the upload a video feature.

This is a clip I included in the Xmas 2006 CD I gave away to officemates. The first part shows a female backup dancer that my friend Gene had a small crush on and asked me to video ... the second is a video of Miko who got a little carried away during the Christmas Party.

As some people in the office requested that I write my video clips in a format that can be opened by their video players at home, this is in MPEG format and therefore not high definition.

Zelle Music Video: Sabihin

Ian Lauron sent me a link to YouTube promoting a band called Zelle which he says is going to be launched soon.

Click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3ll2SGJPgM

It is a music video of the band's song "Sabihin", which in turn is from the album "Search for Warmth"

Matthew Gray Gubler: The Unauthorized Documentary

I like the show Criminal Minds, although I don't get to watch every episode. After "googling" up the actors on the show, I found out that as a running joke, the actor who plays the young genius Reid has filmed a series of videos uploaded to YouTube as "Matthew Gray Gubler: The Unauthorized Documentary". He and his cohorts have uploaded 5 videos so far ... and I enjoyed watching them.

Here's a link to the first video of the series: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2Ll4LAoeZE

Meeting a former classmate

It's Independence day today, but everybody's at work as the president declared yesterday the special non-working holiday instead of today.

Was at the canteen to buy lunch when someone called my name. Was surprised to see Eileen Gonzales. She's Mrs. Flores now. She's new at PNB and works at the Asset Management Group. She worked at Land Bank after college, then worked at her husband's business when she got married. Now, she's with PNB.

Last time she remembered seeing me was at Yohan Yapchiongco's first birthday party. Her husband is related to Rachel's husband Jules.
