LOL, dreamer.
it's okay, bdwaygirl, i wanted to be killed off since i put myself in the game as a joke. the mominator family just approached the game with such fervor and determination it was scary! i think they even had extended family members sign-up for bww to tackle the deed.
mom pushes me...

DOW is down 121 pts.......triple please !!!!
uh-oh... I'm afraid to look...
Is my pension and my 401K disappearing today? I can retire in 7 years.
But, it's still a minor percentage of the overall value... (trying to look for the silver lining...)
No drinks until a little later for me, but thanks, DD.

So - what is causing this?
High gas prices? An incompetent government? Just guessing...
And why is it not a headline yet on MSNBC?
Seems like it's a reaction the the Fed rates from yesterday.
Higher commodity costs - energy and metals.
And higher interest rates.
It's a slump. 100 points (give or take) isn't a significant overall percentage.
Hopefully there won't be too many disappointing corporate earnings reports...
Thanks for the squeeze, Cookie!
Cookie again! *squoosh*
Extra hugs for BB, this is no way for the "Almost Weekend" to start!
Got some chicken soup. Hoping it soothes my throat. The Halls work for a little bit.

Makes sense. They reported this morning that the cost of producing a penny is 1 1/4 cent, and it cost 5 3/4 cents to produce a nickel.
Should I start hoarding my nickles?
Ricolas girly! Feel better!
"7 1/2 cents doesn't mean a helluva lot..."
HM... it's really sad when one's afraid to post a Tony-related question because I don't want to get all those posts saying "this was asked three times already..."
SO I figured I'd ask in the relatively safe confines of the adult thread.
I just read the article on the Tony nominating committee meeting to figure eligibility, and, for example, it says that Steven Lynch and Laura Bennatti are considered for Leading Actor/Actress. Does that mean they are the only ones to be considered in the entire show? At this point, then, any of the supporting cast members know they won't get a nom?

Truth in advertising department: Just got one of those $5 umbrellas. On the case it came in, it reads "Wind Proof." Yeah sure.
First gust over 4 MPH, the sucker is going inside out !
DD, I saw your question, but I don't have a clue! Hopefully, somebody with some knowledge will come along soon.
DD: Nope. It means, should the producers choose to, they can put forth Benanti and Lynch's names for the leading awards. The rest of the cast can only be considered for featured and not leading.
