I saw martha plimpton walking down a street and me my mom and my grandmother walked right by her and my grandmother goes"hey its one of the goonies!"she went into a flower shop and my mom followed her into the shop and asked for an autograph but we didn't have any paper so the clerk behind the desk was nice enough to give us a reciept paper,my mom is really embarasing,but it was funny

ok. so, this happened a while ago, but i got you all beat. i saw the last performance of soldier's play at 2ST last november. there were lots of familiar faces - most of the cast of rent, susan hilferty, and some others i forgot. but... when i sat down in my seat, there is this huge man sitting behind me witha turtleneck sweater, aviator sunglasses, and a hat. he looked suspicious, and even though i couldn't see his face, he looked familiar. during intermission, i get up to go to the bathroom, and he's two people in front of me, but this time, no hat or glasses. i just see the back of his beautiful bald head. it's not until we are standing next to each other at the urinal that i realize... LL COOL J. yes, that's right. i peed with LL. i was tempted to say, "i loved you in deep blue sea", but i refrained.

o my god! drama did you peek?!

while i am not a urinal peeker, i would be lying if i said the thought never crossed my mind. however, LL is a huge man. i didn't want to make him angry, especially after he kicked some serious michael meyers ass in H20, so i left him alone.

I saw Kaye Ballard at a matinee of WOMAN IN WHITE. I think if you took an intermission poll of the audience, they would've voted to scrap Act II of WIW and have the marvelous Miss Ballard stand next to a piano, tell stories and sing for the rest of the afternoon (that is, those of us who stayed for Act II. The way people were leaving, you would've thought the Marquis was on fire)
