I was wondering who would make the first joke about that...

(I was too hung up on the apostrophe.)

I thought he was busy translating ANNIE into Spanish for Laurents' new production.

HAHA! I don't think he does, actually...

You know, after 9/11, here, they took thousands of "arabs" (in quotes because, what does that mean?) and put them in a detention center somewhere on Long Island...thousands...held many of them for months and over a year with no charges.

If I disappeared, my family is powerful enough, people would notice, the media would report it...

But, I wonder how many people have disappeared as "enemy combatants" that we've never heard about? It's got to be more than Jose Padilla, and it's truly frightening...

I didn't even notice the apostrophe. Ouch. I simply cut and paste the article's original headline.

I'll change it.

Performing IN THE HEIGHTS in Arizona today.. must be something like doing FIDDLER ON THE ROOF in 1930's Germany.

Especially since he changed Sonny's verse in 96,000, from "What about immigration? politicians be hating" to "what about immigration? Arizona be hating"...

^ Did he actually change it? If so, that's pretty awesome.

He did change it in the national tour, I don't know about the Broadway show.
