Known worldwide as “That One Guy from The Matrix,” “That One Guy from The Sopranos,” “That One Guy from The Goonies,” “That One Guy form Bad Boys,” “That One Guy from Memento,” and “That One Guy from The Adventures of Pluto Nash,” Joe Pantoliano is HERE, in PORTLAND, right this VERY MINUTE. The details!

The “Help is Here Express” bus tour will be in Portland Monday, June 2, along with Emmy Award-winning actor, writer and producer Joey Pantoliano. The tour will stop in the Portland State University park blocks, between the PSU Library (1875 SW Park) and Smith Memorial Student Union (1825 SW Broadway), from 10 a.m. to noon to help uninsured and financially-struggling Oregonians access information on programs that provide prescription medicines for free or nearly free. The bus tour is part of the Partnership for Prescription Assistance (PPA)—a nationwide effort sponsored by America’s pharmaceutical research companies—raising awareness of patient assistance programs and the need to effectively address the rising and alarming rates of chronic disease in the United States. Patients can also learn about new medicines in development to fight chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and asthma.

Joey Pantoliano, who suffers from mental depression and is traveling with the PPA bus to raise awareness of this debilitating chronic disease, is one of the best known character actors in Hollywood, appearing in more than 100 movies and television shows.

Hot damn! Joe Pantoliano! Up at PSU! This very minute! Raising awareness of patient assistance programs and the need to effectively address the rising and alarming rates of chronic disease in the United States! I hope he’s taking questions, because I have some very grave ones about why Cypher was such a dick. Dude totally sold out Morpheus.

Holy crap! It's That One Guy from La Bamba! No wait, I mean That One Guy from Risky Business!

I think the potential help some people may get for perscriptions is a bigger deal than some joe is in Potown.
