Posted: 4/5/07 at 4:28pmI'm not talking about what the words mean, FallintoLight, I'm talking about the language. Why is it Latin, not Irish? you can ask these things without seeing th show, that story was around long before the show, it's not exclusive to the stage.
The rain we knew is a thing of the past -
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

There has not been anyone who can capture the nuances of this pivotal role in American theatre.
Except for that alcoholic who used to be Miss America. She understands it. Why won't they cast her already?

Posted: 4/5/07 at 4:44pmI thought you were about to say Jennifer Hudson. Come to think of it, her too.

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Posted: 4/5/07 at 6:51pmThese threads always bother me, but I always feel the need to jump in and say Idina Menzel, for God's sake. End of discussion.
