"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

Your humor is often appreciated when things get taken way too seriously.
What show in the upcoming Broadway season are you most looking forward to?

What do you want to win Best Musical?

Favorite singer? Why?

Would you rather act on Broadway, or compose a show?
--Compose. And by damn, I will someday. 
If you could be on Broadway in any one show, what would it be?
-I'd be Christine Ebersole as Edith and Edie in Grey Gardens. Sort of a Leslie Kritzer is Patti LuPone thing.

Congrats on the day, however the question yet to be asked is if your middle name is really Lily or not?
--No, it is Thomas. And my surname is not actually Rosenbloom. That signature is a tribute to a huge and fabulous camp flop that had Ellen Green in the cast. It is so unknown it is not even on ibdb.com as of the last time I checked. The real title is "The Name Is Rachel Lily Rosenbloom And Don't You Forget It!"
