Thank you best12bars -- I have more, but I'll post them when I have a little bit more free time - I have a huge stack of papers I need to get graded and really shouldn't even be on here right now as it is.

I'm back with 20 more....

51) You stay away from all "weird or exotic" plants...just in case

52) Your idea of rebelling is dropping the "h" from your name.

53) You can't hear Moonlight Sonata without singing "You know something, Schroder..."

54) You've actually made a list of the other 97 ways to lose a man

55) You have an irrational fear of "being" the bunny that makes you runaway, runaway!

56) You believe "I Believe My Own Eyes" should be played on all classic rock stations.

57) You KNOW that Leonardo Dicaprio and Kate Winslet were not at the sinking of the Titanic, but David Garrison, Brian D'arcy James, and Michael Cerveris were (you're kind of iffy about Victor Garber...)

5 You've ever gone into a garden and commented that it was wick.

59) You can't listen to Roar of the Greasepaint...without thinking how odd it is that Captain Hook is singing with Little Chap.

60) You've ever timed yourself doing something, then did it again quickly, and beamed at the time you saved.

61) After a long day of work you talk about how the "big son of a (INTAKE OF BREATH) hurts the most"

62) Except for big scary guys named after Tennessee cities, you tend to think that most whores and pimps are pretty nice people who're just waiting for someday...(SUCKERS!)

63) No matter what, you will NEVER spend a summer in Ohio.

64) When you got angry at a friend, instead of saying you wanted to kill them, you suggested they go find a big ass rock.

65) You've actually had a debate over whether or not the snake in Eden was In Pursuit of Excellence or just pushing some Forbidden Fruit.

66) You CAN spell cow.

67) You've been in a position where you're scared and you sang either "I Whistle a Happy Tune," "My Favorite Things," or "I'm the Bravest Individual" and you instantly felt better.

6 You desperately want to know what lessons 1-7 were.

69) You have absolutely no idea what a beetle nut is, but you know if you ever had to try one you would have some pepsodent on hand.

70) The only time in your entire life you've been "going on" to the next age was at sixteen, and then at seventeen - and seventeen felt so MATURE!

"When you run into a Broadway actor going about their everyday life, then call your best friend and say "You will not beleive who I just saw!"

I did this twice this past weekend. Max von Essen walking through Chelsea (nearly walked into a pole doing a double-take) and Karmine Alers on the subway. Of course, my friend was like "Um, ok, who?" and I had to go into a lengthy discussion of when I had mentioned these people to her before.

-You have a category on your buddy list for other fans you've met at stage doors.

-You go make trips NYC specifically for the purpose of seeing shows. When other people ask what you're doing there and you say seeing Show X, they respond "Is that the only reason?"

-Actors you meet at the stagedoor are shocked to hear how many times you've seen the show.

-You can take any movie, TV show, whatever, and some how connect it back to a musical through the actors. Kind of like the dad in My Big Fat Greek Wedding finding the Greek root of any word.

LOL! Jasonf you are to funny.
1. You see Hairspray on Broadway go to the stage get autographs. Then walk over to the Lunt and see if any Beauty actors come out the stage door. You go as far to pick up an abadoned program!
2. You know if your favorite Broadway show ever closed you would be comatose for a day at the least!
3. Bus drivers see you and ask how you liked the show!
4. At your dentists office everyone working there asks about whats playing around the area and what's on Broadway!
5. Someone wants to ask you about a show and can't remember the name or who was in it. Yet somehow you know exactly what show there talking about.
6. You have dinner with an actress. She says a friend of it hers is in a show and you know who. You shock the heck out of them buy saying who it is!
7. You pick out a hotel in NYC based on "Old fashioned wedding" from Annie Get Your Gun.

I don't know why either. But it's pretty funny and very flattering.

1. You can almost hear Broadway calling your name!
2. You don't want kids of your own but you do want to be like the eccentric Aunt in Pamela's first musical.
3. You see Peter Pan with Cathy Rigby with a good friend. The best part isn't the show. It's the look of awe on your friend's face cause she's never been so close to the stage before.
4. Whenever your at the stage door you get an image of Dorothy waiting outside the gates to the emerald city.
5. You hope for rain so you can have any excuse to think of Gene Kelly.
6. You long for the day when you can say Let's get some helium ballons and sing songs from the Wizard of Oz and instead of everyone looking at your funny. Everyone gets up and goes with you to find helium and some ballons!

I agree, I am just reading and shaking my head in laughter.

Some of mine...

See a show twice in the same day RENT

straight and love musical theather

Walked into Barnes and Noble to get my RENT MOVIE soundtrack and could tell the girl working there more about the cd and when it was supposed to be out then she knew

go to NYC for 2 days and see 3 shows

Have your parents take you to NYC for your graduation present.

Only think about how to get back to the city to see as many shows as possible.

The only music you listen to is from your favorite musicals

Try and go to the CMA awards in NYC this year just for the tickets to the Broadway show

Beg your Mom to go to a Dental conference in NYC so you can go with her and see as many shows as possible.

Your sister and her fiance buy you a poster and then take you to the stage door just to get your favorite actresses signtaure one more time.

You wish you could be on Broadway but you cant sing, act or dance

You are a farm girl who hates cities except for NYC just to see the shows.

you beg that every present you get is a ticket to a show

you actually thought about going to NYU just to be in the city to go to shows all the time

....seeing Brooke Shields in Cabaret is not enough, and you later feel compelled to pluck down your hard-earned money to see the Debbie Gibson version as well. Or maybe that makes me a deranged Debbie Gibson fan.

here are mine:

~when someone starts judging you on a bus from a church trip, you start talking back saying about log in your eyes.

~You go through motions of Church Rulez during church

~One word can start you off on a song or a quote

~You're at work where you babysit a bunch of little kids and you're playing coloring book and you find a seseme street coloring book and start coloring burt and ernie and the kids yell at you cuz you're coloring them the wrong color

Everything reminds you of a musical
For example:

Mike Piazza= LITP
spam= Spamalot
lamest= Les Miz

and any other word or name

using the phrase "No. Really?? Nooooooooo." in the same whiny voice that Norbert Leo Butz uses in DRS almost everyday when something is cancelled.
