Posted: 2/21/06 at 3:07pmOk most of you are gonna have no idea what I'm talking about but here it goes. The owner of the Playhouse that I'm currently working with is a rather large man with a beard, and glasses. The funny part is that in Oklahoma (which I'm currently in production for) I play the part of Andrew Carnes so I'm a fat old man with a beard. Well about a week ago I found a huge HUGE pair of stage glasses in the prop room so I put them on. I think my beard was modeled after Jim cause it looks just like his. I had my beard, and my glasses on, and I walked up to Leila and did my "impersionation" (sp?) It was hilarious. Jim has this way that he stands and the way he breathes and I can mock him so easy. I am still working on the voice but I've almost got that too, it's great! LOL!! Everyone says that I look just like him, even our director and Stage Producer that it was absolutely incredible. They said if they do a play about him they are calling me to play the lead...lol. Ok so now you can sit here and think "what the hell are you talking about" because most of you have no idea...lol. :p

I can do a wide-mouth bass - it is a visual impression.

Posted: 2/21/06 at 5:41pmYou remember the gangster in the Bugs Bunny cartoons, the one who yelled "Help! Help! Get me away from this crazy rabbit!" I do a good impression of him. Sean Connery, too.

I can do a fabulous Eleanor Sherman (hence the new avatar). Which is basically doing Judith Ivey doing Katharine Hepburn.
And I can do Anthony Newley. On the rare occasions I meet someone my age who actually knows who he is, that is.
