I'm a happy camper once again- I lotto'd the show tonight and finally won a lotto! The show was excellent, as always.

I finally stagedoored, and everyone was so nice!

I don't really have anything to say except that I'm quite a happy person tonight.

any review?

glad you had a great time. Isn't fun to win the lotto? where did you sit?

[starletta8]

No major review. I did one of those the last time I saw the show (upthread).

Wierd audience though- very quiet at times, didn't want to give entrance applause. No applause after "I think we still deserve a hand". Speaking of, can anyone else who was there verify that the harmonies were a little different and bit lower than usual? Or was I just hearing things?

OH! Sara Gettelfinger is back. I didn't see her the first time around, so it was a treat to see her now. I actually recognized her voice from the OBC recording (since I didn't even look at the Playbill except to see if there were any understudy slips).

I sat in one of the rear boxes and had a great time. The view wasn't as bad as I'd feared. I think maybe 3-4 people didn't get seats, if any (I was pretty early, so I didn't see if there were leftover people).

As I said, everyone was super nice at the stagedoor. Surprisingly, no barricades.

I'm really excited about the tour. I looked when the dates first came out and glanced and didn't see TN, so I didn't think twice about it. Well, I looked again, and I'll have 3 chances to see it! And the closest it will be is on my birthday. So, is anyone else close to ATL?? I'll be there Nov. 3rd!

Or not...

Where is he?

[JbaraFan1]

Posted: 5/3/06 at 1:55pm

Just heard from him ... he said it's going to be closer to 2:15 today. That's right at the time I pick my kiddo up at school, so I'll be back home to start saving pics around 2:20, 2:25, depending on how soon I can make it back home. It really helps if all the other cars stay off the streets I have to travel during that time. lol

edit: I'm back .. update from Greg: more like 2:40 ...

edit 2: And we're off! :) Updated On: 5/3/06 at 01:55 PM

I hate persuasive essays when you're trying to prove something you know nothing about. Even my superhero powers can't kill these essays...

I have to write an essay on the concern over the social condition of england in 1840 1880 and 1910...Alas, I don't think crap happened will suffice...

Social condition?

They sat around and drank tea for like 100 years.

BTW, did I miss Greg's calendar change? It certainly did change to May and it looks as though the calendar image is the same.

on Saturday I am writing a pre-intermediate test. I am not worried, I am on advanced level now. But my teacher didn't find those papers.

Cat, I finished writing your paper. Here it is:

A lot was going on in England during the timespan of 1840 to 1910. The social condition was in terrible danger because of the sudden tea famine. The Tea Famine of 1840 was caused by a scandalous group, the GFU. One night, all of the English dudes were sleeping, and it is said that the members of GFU somehow confiscated all of the tea in England at the time. They wanted England to use proper capitalization and grammar, which at this time, the whole country refused to do. To this very day, no one knows where all the tea went. There are several conspiracies, including one that states that the tea was never really taken, and the whole thing was cooked up by BroadwayGirlWicked. It proposes the idea that the tea was not gone, but BroadwayGirlWicked had stole Liz Biz's superpowers (through mojo-- see Austin Powers) and used them to eliminate English's recognition of tea. They would think it was water, and they would not taste the difference (their tastebuds had been altered as well). Whether BGW had really performed the dirty deed, no one knows.
The Tea Famine affected the social condition in a superfluous way. People no longer knew what to do during their "Tea Time". Tea Parties ceased to exist, and upon that fact, thousands of girls were reported to have committed suicide after their stuffed animals and dolls refused to drink water. Years had past, but no tea appeared in England, even though they could trade for it, it would not be visible/tastable in their country. When the boys of the country were older, another big social dip came. Since there were practically no girls left in which for them to focus their attractions on, almost all of the boys took their own lives- like the young girls. The ones that remained were homosexual, a sin that is not forgivable because God rocks and stuff. The homosexuals didn't stay around for long though, they soon took a trip to New York and found their passion in something called Broadway.
After a long period of time, the Tea Famine had eliminated a whole generation. Since that generation was gone, there were very few babies (except for like gross times when like 50 year old women have children and ew nasty). Many people believed that the society of England would crumble forever. There had to be a way to solve the horrible conditions in England. Finally, someone had the brilliant idea to call the Ninja Turtles. Unfortunately, they weren't that brilliant because the Ninja Turtles didn't have their cell phone with them at the time. Thank god for voice mail.
Anyways, the Ninja Turtles saved England by using their really sweet martial art type skills to make the tea appear again (or get it back, depending on which story you believe). Except Michelangelo didn't show up because he was playing a videogame, which is really sad because he rocks.
As you can see, the social condition of England was saved, once again, by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Mary: How'd you like to write my paper for me too. It's on the roles family members play in an Alcoholic family.

I was gonna start with this, but yours is better...


After times of great change or suffering, follows great introspection upon the sociopolitical state of one's country. Thomas Carlyle recognized this phenomenon in his own time and labelled the massive school of societal reflection as the "Condition of England Question." Based on the level of economic, social and political success of England, the Condition of England question is raised, of course, primarily during periods of misfortune, depression, or societal unrest. Whenever the poverty-stricken fill the streets, the unemployed riot in the face of an unyeilding employers, and ineffectual laws are passed to fill the hopeless canyons of despair; one cannot help but ask, 'why'? Thus, as the economic principle of booms and busts mandates, this question is raised cyclically, as predictably as the sun is eclipsed in shadow and most notably in Britain during the 1840s, 1880s, and 1910.

There are a lot of big words in that.

Traci, I don't think the Ninja Turtles can save alcoholics. All they ever eat is pizza.

[Malki5]

Posted: 5/3/06 at 3:54pm

Maybe they washed it down with beer.

[Musical_nerd]

Posted: 5/3/06 at 3:56pm

Only if the Rat Master said to.

[JbaraFan1]

Posted: 5/3/06 at 3:57pm

The pizza might absorb some of the alcohol.

[Musical_nerd]

This is true.
