I don't know, why haven't you?
Do you really care, Tink?
Sure
I care.
It was rhetorical... or a riddle.
Here's a riddle for y'all: What's the difference between a cat and a comma?
*frowns*
I've already heard this one, so I'm going to opt not to answer it.
Soapy, just to make you crazy, I'm going to tell you that I saw Pearl Bailey in HELLO, DOLLY! - twice.
She. Was. Fab!
Better than Carol?
Fine, I'll tell you: One has the paws before the claws, and the other has the pause before the clause.
Deet, you officially suck!
Bu dum chh.
Whose turn is it to turn that into a dirty joke?
Edit: Ha Ha, I put choke instead of joke!
She wasn't better than Carol, she gave an entirely different interpretation - warmer, not as wiley.
I saw them both do it in revivals in the mid to late 70's.
Sometimes, I wish I was alive in the 70's. Then I realize that there was two computer per home ratio in the 70's and I take it back.
Did you see Barbra in Funny Girl?
In the movies, yes. Not on stage. My parents did, though.
Ooh, what did your parents think of her?
My father hated her, still does. My mother was lukewarm - she always talked about her racing through her lines and being virtually unintelligible.
*waits for all the Streisand fans to lunge*
Opps, I didn't realize that it was in the late 60's not 70s.
Well, I'm not a Streisand fan, so I don't care much. I think she's overrated, personally.
*ducks*
That's the beauty of the off-topic board, I don't think you're going to be killed for that comment.
Just don't say that a version other than Judy's "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" is the best you've ever heard. I learned that the hard way.
The movie was the late 60's. The stage production opened in March of 1964. I was virtually unintelligible then too, but I wasn't carrying a major Broadway musical. My parents saw it in 1965, after it had been running about a year. She was, by all reports, bored out of her mind by then.
I'm not a streisand fan AT ALL. Buzz's mom just adores her though.
She's okay - I think the ego has gotten in the way of the talent. But I do admire her outspoken political convictions.
Though I don't know WHO would pay that much to see her. I wouldn't even pay that much to see Patti.
