Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:57pmlol my dad just asked if sharpton was part of the cast...we're going to have a very confused country
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

I think they are, Margo.
I am majorly confused now since I have never seen it. I know Sharpton is not in the show, but I don't understand if they added a part or if he substituted for someone?
I thought it was funny.... but I think it made things confusing.

Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:59pmEach show, audience members are chosen to spell. For the Tonys they thought it would be funny to use Al...that is it.

Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:59pmIn the actual show 2 audience members are brought on stage as spellers. For the Tonys they chose Sharpton (who did very well I must say)

He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail

No, Al Sharpton is not in the show.
He's the substitute for audience participation.
That's usually sung to one of the audience members.

She's so pretty. :)
GAH. Must...restrain putting hair behind ears...>____________<
It's a pet peeve, but I do it all the time too, so I guess I'm a hypocrite.
ETA: By doing it all the time, I meant putting my hair sort of in my face. Okay, my thread jack is finite.
