If you decide to ride out a big storm an stay in an evacuated area, I guess losing power was bound to happen. But thank God he's still posting his blog.
I don't know Dollypop, outside of these posts, but I am glad he's OK. This thread was creeping me out!

It would be so perfect if his name were "Dollypop Richard."
I've been thinking about the memorial service. You know, if one should be needed. I know the things a lot of us would like to share would not be appropriate for The Most Accepting Catholic Church On Planet Earth and we're all really busy, so I think it will have to be a virtual memorial service.
I'm trying to line up some speakers. The obvious ones that come right to mind are Nathan Lane, Maestro Lockhart and Christian Weeds Jesus. Does anybody have any connections to these three? Any other suggestions? Obviously somebody is going to have to do a number. Or maybe a few people.
I think we should leave poor Miss Channing out of this. The poor woman has suffered enough.
I think a bunch of little boys should do an interpretive dance. I think (when the time comes) he would like that.

Is dancing appropriate, do you think? How about boy sopranos?
I think as long as they're dressed scantily, it's appropriate. And sopranos are preferable.
"Does anybody have any connections to these three?"
yes, I have a connection to Nathan Lane. He wants to know how much Dolly, I mean, we, will pay him.
His name isn't Richard...

I'm thinking we'll pass a virtual hat and the end of the virtual memorial service. Maybe somebody can just get us a clip of that public appearance where Nathan let out a scream and said the name "Dollypop!" I know that was a highlight in Dollypop's life. Um, with plenty more to come, I'm sure.
I'm petty sure I can get Corine to do some video interviews and get mlop to put together a nifty photospread.
But, his name isn't Richard.
So, whoever posted that they saw him on FB and his blogs... isn't talking about our Dollypop.
Dollypop! Where for art thou, Dollypop?...
"His name isn't Richard.."
I think it's Joseph. After Nathan Lane.
Yes, it is.
Joseph, we hardly knew ye.
(we'll say when the time comes)
Has anyone checked Toys R Us or the children's department at Sears??

I always wondered if Dollypop and Nathan Lane had a thing. Do you think there will be a tell-all? You know, if the worst happens someday?
I think I'd prefer a tell-little. Unless it's written by his students. Now THAT could be a best-seller!
"Has anyone checked Toys R Us or the children's department at Sears??"
haha, I immediately thought of that hilarious scene in "Big" where Tom Hanks is on that stick horse "ride em cowboy!"
You can always check the Ball pits at the local Chucky Cheese.
In real life, Dollypop hasn't posted on Facebook since October 24.
I'm sure he will resurface in time to spend a solid week preparing an extravagant and labor-intensive Thanksgiving feast for his (undoubtedly rented) family. No short-cuts for Dollypop! He makes everything from scratch. Even the turkey, which his grand-daughter keeps as a pet until mid-November when his favorite priest performs extreme unction just prior to the sacrificial fowl's crucifixion. DP even cleans the turkey inside and out with pure holy water from Lourdes.
When the time comes, we BWWers can pilgrimage to Nevers, Bourgogne, where we will exhume DP's mummified corpse, which will have remained incorrupt, unlike Ms. Channing's, which has been irreparably ravaged by involuntary consumption of corn.
^ I might be the only one who gets your post, Miss P, but very well written!
If BWW had a like button, this thread would put me in the early stages of carpal tunnel.
Y'all are too effing funny.
BroadwayWorld hasn't had such a mysterious disappearance since Brendan Stryker left us.
PJ, you made me cry. I miss him soooo much.
