June 6 Yeah, D-Day. And, this year, the "devil's day" or whatever. Everyone's going to tease me and make crosses with their fingers on my birthday, I just know it.
Yes! Anthony! Awesomeness! (my attempt to not threadjack is pretty unsuccessful, as you can see. Let's try again.) What's your favorite role or character played by Anthony. Mine's Mark Cohen, partly because RENT is such an amazing show, but I really think that the character, and Anthony's portrayl of the character, is amazing. And it's not like in movies where you can say, 'Oh, you only say that because no one else has been able to play the role,' but here that's obviously not the case. It's true that I can't really imagine anyone else as Mark, but that's just because he really seems to capture Mark's "essense" if that makes any sense.
Second fav. character is Daryl from AiB, and 3rd is his character from "Road Trip". Weird, I know, but I love the few scenes he's in. But I haven't seen "David Searching" yet, so "Road Trip" might get knocked out of top 3.

I would reply to the favorite character thing but I have only seen him in RENT and twister (I know very very sad) but I was wondering if someone could put that song losing my religion on here cuz it sounds kind of cool and I want to hear it, and no I'm not a robot, sorry threadjack...I'm done
I think Anthony is a character actor... he becomes each character he takes on, and is amazing in whatever he does.
And fine, here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EUD8N0FG
Time for a threadjack:
Has anyone had the feeling that something was up? (In their life, I mean.) This isn't anything bad...just interesting.
I was talking to my mom while returning from Walmart and the pizza place and I was talking about a car incident. (Well, I will now proceed to tell the story).
Me: Well, I have to explain how this conversation came about.
Mom: Ok.
Me: So, we were driving home and we see a hawk in the sky. Michelle goes: "Look a hawk. What died?". That's like "Who died?" so I go "Akita" and Rachel replies "Evita.". Michelle goes: "I bet you don't know what Evita is." and I say: "Hmm how about Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical that was turned into a movie?" She says: "Yeah I saw the one with Madonna." And I reply: "Yes, and Antonia BanDERasssss!" The conversation for the next couple minutes was me saying how we should see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and her replying something about Evita being somewhere or something. (She was possibly talking about "The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber" at the Bushnell).
Mom: But she still wants to see Spamalot?
Me: Oh, of course!
Now...isn't that a little strange? I mean, why would my mom ask that? (Oh and it's my sisters bithday on Feb. 7).....
I thought it was.

Oooh, Barry! I need to see Open House, too. Blah. Oh, it would be great if someone could upload Anthony singing "Losing My Religin." Hint-hint. And, does anyone have a version of "Without You" that you can put on iTunes? Right now, I'm in the mood to play it over and ver 24/7, and on realplayer, that isn't an option.

haha I have those all next week. (only 4 though. I only have 4 classes at my regular school. Such a hardship, I know.). I have my second part of my chemistry final tomorrow. (It's a half-year course. This is at my other school. It's everything that's in a full-year course just in half the time. The class is 1.5 hours instead of 50.)

you=love, gertrude. And yeah, I obviously didn't see that when I posted my comment. By the way, I totally agree that he's a "character actor", so I guess my question really was what character is your favorite. And yeah, it's still Mark And yes, xoxRogue, it is a little strange. Hmmm.
Yet another threadjack: Seeing Spamalot Jan. 22!

Yeah, and a few weeks ago I was talking about how we should see another show and she just gave a little laugh and a smile. I might have to do some detective work. :)
*officially hates school for keeping me away from the board*
I am far too lazy to go back and read however many pages I missed in the past 36ish hours. Anthything important?
Sooo excited about Anthony's book signing in Chicago! Who else is going? It would be fun to meet other bbw people.
In relation to your story Rouge, I was sitting in trig today and we were talking about revolutions of angles or something. I turn to my friend who sits next to me and go "revolutions justice screaming for solutions." He had La Vie Boheme stuck in his head the rest of class.
Okay I guess that's not terribly related to your story. But I wanted to share it. lol. I love crazy RENT moments like that. :)
::hands Rogue her Sherlock Holmes hat::
Thank you. I shall start my snooping tomorrow. I'll just, throw a suggestive question here and there.
Hey, I'll get to use my new dry-erase board! Yes!
I turn to my friend who sits next to me and go "revolutions justice screaming for solutions." He had La Vie Boheme stuck in his head the rest of class.
Haha. I always break out into song. I'm happy my other sister was paying attention while I said the line. You know, I bet most people here have broken out into song at one point or another.
It happens to me all the time... EVERYTHING reminds me of RENT.
Tell me if there is anything wrong with this:
Yesterday my English teacher said "Absolute power corrupts absolutely." I immediately translate it to German and am thinking of it in my head because of Hedwig... move on to the only other phrase I know in German "So did Hitler." Spent the rest of English thinking about Hedwig.
