I know this not because I give a damn about Ralph Macchio, but because I am deeply in love with Marisa Tomei. :shy:

For the rest of the answer, I refer you to question 8 (of 8) in the "Ralph Macchio FAQ":

8. What is Ralph doing now?
Ralph just finished up "Can\'t Be Heaven," which should be released later this year. Before that, he toured with "How to Succeed In Business Without Really Trying." I saw the show in Chicago a few summers ago, and let me say it is incredible. I strongly urge you to go see it. Even if you\'re not a Macchio Maniac, you\'ll still enjoy it. As for what he is doing right at this very second, I really don\'t know. My hidden cameras have been on the fritz lately. http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/3036/macchio.html
Whoever maintains that site is a complete loser. Here\'s a quote from the main page: "Welcome to The Ralph Macchio Homepage. This man has dedicated his life to providing millions of moviegoers with countless hours of entertainment. While it is, of course, impossible to recount every instance of Ralph\'s greatness and all of his contributions, this page will serve as as a wholehearted tribute to the greatest actor of the 20th century. "

Greatest actor of the 20th Century???? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
