CELEBRITIES & GOSSIP
by jim on June 11, 2006

It's that time of year when people go on vacation, get married, if they're very romantic (June bride), and graduate from various educational institutions.
College graduation ceremonies sometimes bring out various dignitaries to deliver inspirational speeches to the graduates, generally because he or she is an alumnus of the school.
Captains of industry and well-credentialed scientists and scholars usually make appearances at the schools most of us couldn't get into because of a lack of bread or brains.
Then, of course, there are the politicians, who never pass on an opportunity to make a speech, and if you're really unlucky, your school might even draw a visit from the President.
Lately though, some grads have lucked out and been treated to a commencement address by a Hollywood celebrity.
The likes of an Ellen DeGeneres could certainly liven up an otherwise mundane event, while the leaders of tomorrow are absorbing some sage advice. Lets not forget that many of these guys are genuinely intelligent, and even those who aren't must have something on the ball, or they wouldn't be making millions.
Here's some excerpts from a commencement speech made by another of my wife's favorite guys, Viggo Mortensen, whom she swears is directing that kiss towards her.
