And Zola checks in, quoting both Whitney Houston AND Cole Porter!

EDIT: That should have been "...both Dolly Parton AND Cole Porter."

As Oscar Wilde once wrote "The suspense is terrible. I hope it will last."

I KNOW! Just kind of added a special buzz to the morning, didn't it. Zola, come back. Stay a while.

I would like to thank people for the things they wrote yesterday, it was very very nice to read. As the 21st CotD, I now know how Madonna feels. No longer in the Top 20, but still in the Top 40.

Now let me say that doing the Q&A thing was way more fun than I thought it would be. It's so fascinating to be asked questions about one's self! Maybe I should put it somewhere in a Namo FAQ so newcomers or people who didn't/don't read this thread can go there when they want the answer to Who TF is this guy?

I tried not to overthink the job of the installing the next person and let the answer come to me. In the past few weeks I had a few fights and vicious PM exchanges about a certain movie involving these cowboys. Anybody remember that? Well, I'd like to nominate a smart poster I may have been mean to. But not just to make a Stuart Smalley amends. Mostly because I love to read what he writes cuz he does it so well.

I hope you'll all join me in respect and admiration for your Celeb of the Day: Auggie27.

Excellent choice.
Those exchanges between the two of you are, in part, what dragged me into regular posting here.

Congrats to Auggie! Have a grand day in the spotlight.
Question 1, Who do you admire? Please name as many as you want.
Question 2, What is your favorite B-way song and why?
Question 3, How did you find BWW?

Auggie! I love it! Great choice, Namo!

Have to go into a meeting but I'll have LOTS of questions!

Congrats, buddy!

Way cool!!!

Auggie is the very first friend I made on BWW. He is also the first person I actually met (at Sweeney Todd at City Opera...we both happened to be up in the heavy-side layer nosebleed section at the same performance...) He still remains one of my favorite posters and a person for whom my respect has never waivered.

Outstanding choice, Namo.

Great choice! Congrats Auggie - looking forward to hearing from you today. I enjoy your thoughtful posts.

'Course, now I feel like Joan Rivers when she mentions the Queen. "Is she here?" I probably just picked somebody who's on vacation or whatnot.

I also would just like to say that I hope this Respondent-Driven Sampling methodology works the way it should. Eventually EVERYBODY gets her/his chance in the spotlight.
