Make-up: I hate it. I need it.

Air-brushing: I hate it. I need it.


She hasn't been "glammed up" for centuries. Good for her.

I don't think Elaine Stritch ever looked that young.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

At first glance, I think it looks like an ad for PETER PAN.

There's not too many things I an honestly say I'd kill for. But Elaine Stritch as Peter Pan is one of them.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Where did you find that ad? I was in the city last night and only saw the Last weeks to see Catherine Zeta-Jones and Angela Lansbury ones.

She most have posed in that fur for a lot of pictures, because she sent me an autographed one of her in the same outfit (different pose, though).
Can't wait for these two ladies to start performances though!

I opened the paper this morning and laughed. It looks like they were badly photo shopped to almost look like paintings. I must admit, seeing an ad in the Times kind of made it sink into my mind that it’s actually happening, and I got really excited.

PJ, despite the fact that I think The Scottsboro Boys was the theatrical event of the year and will contiune to be on Broadway, one can't deny that this is extraordinary too.
