Hi puppy!

I'm not sure, either. I think they present the animals after they've been on display around the alley for a bit, and then you can go and find the ones you're interested in throughout the day.

Anyway, time for me to get to bed. I have to get to services for the holiday REALLY early tomorrow. Have a good night, you guys.

heh. I'll probably be poking around for a bit more, actually. I want to see Will and Grace, I'm hungry and not tired and I'm waiting on an important PM... even though that won't arrive for a few more hours, most likely.

I should go to sleep soon. But... I probably won't.

I asked Chrys, but she ignored me...{sniff}, so I'll just ask here and hope you don't laugh at me. What does "phoning in a performance" mean? I am in no way relating this to Raul since I think it's a negative comment...so slight thread interruption.

Ang - it's like when the actor's just go through the motions...they're physically there, but not mentally/emotionally.

[luvtheEmcee]

It sort of has to do with like... when an actor really looks like he doesn't want to be there. When someone says the performance appears phoned in, it's like... ugh, this is hard to describe, but like they're just going through the motions, reciting the lines, singing the songs. A phoned in performance feels distant, and looks very robotic. Those are the kinds of performances where you know the actor thinks of this simply as a job, and does it for the paycheck, not for the love of the craft.

Thanks guys! That makes sense now. I'm not good with all that theater slang you kids are using these days.

Why am I listening to 'Wig in a Box' for the 12th time in a row. Seriously. Why?!?

[luvtheEmcee]

Goodnight again!!

I'm insulted! I didn't ignore you! I sent you a responce! Damn hotmail. It's been f*cking me over lately.

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:04am

Use Gmail! Haha. It's actually a godsend 90% of the time.

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:06am

You know what, I'm actually tempted to now. Hotmail is NOT my buddy right now.

Oh and Ang, did you ever hear Michael Cerveris sing "Wig in a Box"? Now THAT is good stuff....

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:08am

You have to be invited to use gmail. But I have about 50 extra invitations. So if you want to PM me your e-mail I can invite you.

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:15am

That would be awesome! Thanks!

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:20am

I sent it! Let me know if it doesn't work and I'll invite you again.

I just checked and I now have 99 extra invitations. Gmail just keeps giving me more. I'll never use that many! So yeah, if any of you want to be invited then I'll do it!

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:26am

Yay! It worked! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I even got to keep the same username!

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:29am

Yay, I'm glad! No problem!

Oh, today in my MTW class, this girl was talking about how she saw Taboo. I asked her if she liked it, and she said she's a fan of Boy George so she really enjoyed it. She said Euan was dead on with his interpretation. She also thought he was very pretty. And then she goes "And that guy who played the friend. The one who was always dressing in drag, and wore the wedding dress...." (of course, I knew EXACTLY who she was talking about) she said "That man has the GREATEST legs I have ever seen." I said, yeah. "That's Raúl Esparza, and yes, he does!" I told her he's the best actor in the world, but she didn't seem to share my passion. Ah well, can't win them all.

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:39am

Well, I guess remembering his legs is better than not remembering anything about his performance at all. Right?

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 1:52am

That's a good point. At least she remembered his legs.

[angelic1]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 2:15am

His legs? Hmm...alrighty then. They're nice and all but...Petrified! Ugh. Oh well. Very nice legs. Nice wrapping on that talent.

Class at 9. Eww...goodnight all!

[thetheatrekook]

Posted: 10/13/05 at 12:45pm
