Jason Lee is now working on photography and historical site cataloguing projects in the Texas region. For the My Name Is Earl actor, it may be an odd new route, but Lee has always had a quirky career. Lee is most well-known for his roles in the 1990s films by Kevin Smith. Sadly, a lot of younger audiences probably recognise him most from his recurring position in the live-action Alvin and the Chipmunks movies.

Hence, by regaining their souls and entering a church commemorating its jubilee. It is a tenet of Catholic dogma to receive forgiveness for one’s sins by going through a church’s jubilee archway.
