Made it home as the last image went up.

re: The Official Greg Jbara Love Thread, Part 4! *Witty Title Forthcoming*

Not important, but odd full circle moment I realized. The last time I sat front row at DRS for the full show(so we're not including few times I snuck down at intermission...ahem)...was the day I first met Greg on the street. June 1, 2005. (Stars in the alley was that day, easy to figure out the date). Lotto tickets of course. What a year plus it has been since then.

Random: Did any of you all win my little Whip the Chimp? As most of you know I made him so I'm just curious as to who's got him now.

Liz, thanks for acknowliging that you saw it. lol. and I think that Starletta won Whip. so, it's staying in the family.

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

Aww, the webcam doesn't end! That's so great! I wonder what kind of fun things we'll see from Greg in LA.

Barb, that is indeed Greg Graham. Good call re: The Official Greg Jbara Love Thread, Part 4! *Witty Title Forthcoming* (He used to be on the cam all the time in the beginning...then he kind of tapered off...)

So cute to see everyone on the cam like that.

So I just got home from a night of partying it up with old High School friends at the wedding party. When looking through the highlights from tonight I got all teary eyed. It's sad that the Dressing Room cam is over but now We'll have a 'Greg at Home' Cam to look forward to.

Barb - Absolutely wonderful slideshow. A little sad, but I loved that he said "goodnight" rather than "goodbye".

So, he's going to do random webcams when he's back in LA (showin' off the house or something? Sorry it's almost 4 am so I can't comprehend much...)


Proud fangirl of Greg Jbara.

Liz, I did win Whip. He's SOOOO soft! I know that was mentioned upthread, but I did want to confirm.

I also won Pryce's show tie, and Greg was telling me (and Kerrie) the other night that Pryce wasn't supposed to auction that off. But he'd already signed it before anyone found out he was doing it. LOL. There is, in fact, a new tie in place. I noticed it right away. :)

Getting ready, and loving the fact that weather.com says it's 70. Yay!

I'm sad I missed most of the cam last night, but I needed to say my own goodbyes. I love that it's just goodnight, though.

I'll see you all in a couple of hours.

And just FYI, Harpo rocks. You'll hear the story later if you're at the show. :)

Hey guys,

I know this is a long shot, but ill give it a try anyhow. I should be at lotto right now, and have no way of telling the group (especially Kerrie and Cat) that I'm on my way. So if anyone knows how to get ahold of them, I'd be grateful. Otherwise I'm not sure how to meet up with them after lotto!

Figures that NJ Transit would be super screwed up today!

Thanks, Amanda .. I was like 99.9% sure that was Greg Graham ... just the image being a bit dark and his hand partially covering his face ...

And yes, great that Greg is going to continue the cam. The archiving, however, won't continue, sorry. I really need my Wednesdays and Saturdays to be freer once again. My family has been extremely patient and accomodating all this time. I never minded it because I love Greg, and also knew how much many of you enjoyed the highlights, but now it'll be nice to be able to do other stuff on Wed./Sat. afternoons and evenings.

Of course a backstage B'way dressing room web cam is a different thing entirely from a home renovation web cam ... not sure how much of an interest there'd be in archival images from that anyhow. I mean who wants to go back and check out pics of Greg workin' hard and bein' all hot and sweaty and ... ?

hmmmm... re: The Official Greg Jbara Love Thread, Part 4! *Witty Title Forthcoming*


ETA: Greg never made me feel in any way that I had to sit here during the cams saving images ... in fact, he told me more than once to not let the web cam interfere with my life. So that was always my choice in the end, mostly because I didn't want to let anyone down. :) Just wanted to add this since I don't want anyone thinking Greg forced me to sit and watch and save pics for the highlights. lol Updated On: 7/23/06 at 01:11 PM

I am choked up today as it is about Greg's last day, I think if I were actually there I would be in tears the entire show!!

Barb you rock for taking time out for the cam! It makes me laugh so much that he's going to continue the cam with his renovations on his house - he seriously cracks me up! Greg is just a really awesomely amazing person.

Barb, I'm going to jump in and say publicly what I've said to Greg a number of times -- you have done a super-human job. You deserve a very special round of applause for all of your hard work and dedication to Greg, and to his many, many fans. You're one very special lady.

Wow, it's so not possible I'm the first one home, which means you're all slackers...

Not that I'm gonna write a review, hehe

Lot's of fun bloopers today, and of course THE SPEECH, I'll save the details for one of the folks who doesn't mind carpal tunnel from writing reviews.

Great meeting everyone today!...except Liz...


So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.~Office Space

Wow, none of my other late-stage doorers made it home?

I...guess...I owe it to write my typical long post. I'm just not quite ready to yet...

It was great hanging out with you guys, and thanks for making me feel not crazy, and being there with me at the show...especially Dre, my co-crazy girl as Lucie called us and fellow "aww"er.

So many ppl crying. I've never seen that many ppl crying in a theatre.
