As some readers may know, several of us old timers have accumulated more than a couple of Baby Tile sightings and/or mentions from social media. Normally the sighting has been of a singular Baby Tile persuasion. On October 25, we had what was probably our first "plural" Tile encounter.
But first, let's take a quick timeline looksee at the activity in the public lives of parental units Jake Gyllenhaal and Austin Nichols. On the 17th of Oct., Austin was trying to appear in the pumpkin way with a store conveyor belt and voiceover provided by his beard, Chloe Bennet in Los Angeles. Over in New York City, Jake was rehearsing for his New York City Center Gala performance and in the middle of an eye storm onslaught of internet "rumors" tying him to the British chef Katja Tausig.

On October 24, Jake opened and starred in Sunday in the Park With George at the New York City Center celebration, a musical classic which would play for three nights. Jake had a cast of thousands to provide distraction during the short run: Big Sis Maggie Gyllenhaal and husband Peter Sarsgaard (both with whom he hadn't been seen in the vicinity of for quite awhile), oooh's with Jon Hamm, aaah's with Zachary Levi, and let's not forget self-serving opportunist Ruthie Wilson.
Quite a number of pictures and online activity of folks encompassing Jake over these three days. Was his real-life SO Austin going to miss opening night? Extremely doubtful. A lot of distraction and social media activity to snuff out any undesired sighting of a hubby in the midst? And perhaps there would be enough leftover smoke and mirrors to cover while the GyllenNichols Noah's Ark was being shuttled in the air.
OHHhhhh, what was that?! The @AustinNichols family, you say? Hmmm, so was she talking about father David? Sister Ashley and brother in law Rowdy? Who exactly? Well, Minobis Serrano is a flight attendant. She had previously been in Mexico prior to these tweets, but it's not clear where she was in between the two locations. And where is Romulus, MI? It is less than 4 miles from DTW airport. And Romulus MI is a bit over an hour from Lansing MI, a city where both Jake has been tweet sighted at. And Lansing is less than 45 min. from Jackson, MI - where Austin was arrested for his DUI and his mother's side of the family has had a furniture store.
Is it too soon for another refrain from the choir? I don't think so, do you?
My twitter account @goosestile had favorite'd and retweeted these two tweets from @Minobiss but no sooner had I performed these actions and emailed them to M&M, both tweets had been deleted. Now, I tweeted at her, asking her if she had been told to take them down, but no reply was received. Fortunately, I had the tweets still open in a browser window and was able to print screen them.
What we don't know is if Austin was with the "family" or not. Was Austin still in New York City with Jake? Well, opening night had passed. So perhaps on the 25th, Austin was with the "family" and @Minobiss quickly covered her tweet by saying Austin wasn't there. But I don't know about that. Her two tweets came very close together. Perhaps the "family" was traveling with one or two nannies. Another family member? Was the "@AustinNichols family" his father or sister? Would a flight attendant even be able to recognize them? Highly doubtful, don't you think?
Seems more likely the Family Tile was traveling on a commercial flight and could it be one of the little Tiles told the flight attendant who their father was? It's difficult to say what the scenario was and whether Austin was really there or not.
I don't think even Jessica Fletcher could solve this one. It will remain a mystery. But the arrows seem to point towards a legitimate Family Tile sighting. And that would be of the plural persuasion.

Yep, I remember how those tweets were taken down quickly. Which meant the tweeter was told to delete them. Austin and Jake have definitely been seen in that of area of Michigan on many occasions since 2002. Perhaps the kids were flown back to MI while Austin enjoyed Jake's opening night in New York? And, that's how it's done people. Not hard to hide a family at all when you have an entire Management team made available to you. People who are tasked with covering up "mistakes."
It just seemed like as good of a time as any to post the Romulus sighting.
Sooooo awesome. ;-) I could not believe it when that tweet showed up and then when her location showed up as Romulus?
Anymore, these kinds of sightings just do not happen anymore with these guys. They don't. I don't know how their people are doing it, but I'm sorry. We used to get sightings of Jake in Michigan and Texas plenty of times. No more. The SXSW was either an intern gone WILD or else the guys were trying to get in an "accidental" photo op to celebrate the newborn from late 2015 and it backfired on them.
Once in awhile though, we've been fortunate to catch a few. The "Congras" was a huge find. HUGE. And now this Romulus sighting, although no longer on the internet, at least it lives on in a printscreen.
Believe it. These two guys are still together as ever. :-)
If it was a case of a little one telling their attendant "My daddy is ______", lol....you can bet the Ark got a Mike Brady talk about "let's not share with strangers about who Daddy or Papa are, okay?" LOL. This could have been a rare case of the kids (or some of them anyway) flying without either parent around. And I don't think Jake flies commercial hardly if at all. Austin still can.
Jake probably gets the use of private jets and that may be how their kids travel most of the time? Not sure how it works. But however they all travel, I bet either Jake or Austin is almost always with or near them. This could have been a really rare case of neither guy being with them.
good lord, I've still got my Jimmy's Egg avatar going.
Just for 24 hrs....
Michigan mysteriously started to be associated with Jake while he was making The Day After Tomorrow with Austin in 2002. He even wore a Michigan sweatshirt in one of the scenes as a shout out to his boyfriend. By 2004 Jake was campaigning for John Kerry, not in LA, not in NY, but...wait for it. Michigan!!!! What a coinky dink. Aaah to be young and in love.
I noticed that the Snapchat pumpkin conveyor belt caper starring Austin and his beard was uploaded on a Brazilian account. Brazil is a country that Management often uses to "surreptitiously" plant their stunts. The goal is to make the tweet or video look more organic.
Well, there are stirrings on Spn_Gos that Jensen took off for Austin early this morning and so the twins must be "on the way".
smh. I think now more than ever the twins were born a couple of weeks ago during that weekend of Sheppard's wedding.
