Sponsor me as I walk the Philadelphia AIDS Walk - Sunday, October 16, 2011. Many of our friends, family and neighbors are in desperate need of health care services and other life-saving programs, but with cutbacks in government dollars , these programs are often under-funded. Now, more than ever, your donations are needed to support organizations providing HIV/AIDS awareness, prevention education, counseling and testing and care services for people living with HIV/AIDS.

Posted: 8/16/06 at 4:08pmShe could probably do it, but she wouldn't be my first choice. I see actresses with a bit of a harder edge in the part like Catherine Zeta-Jones, Maria Conchita Alonso, Vanessa Williams, Idina etc
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

I can't believe I'm saying this.
What about Idina?
"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

Laura Benanti is on medical leave which is why her standby has assumed the role.

You make your thread title a bit more specific, as to not waste the time of those of us who prefer to not talk about the next instalment of disney on broadway?

Posted: 8/17/06 at 4:43pmI don't even want to think about more Disney shows on Broadway. They're good, but come on...they're monopolizing. Soon New York is going to be Disneyworld II.
