RobbieJ, that's not what I meant by it. I meant it in a "been there, done that, you're being ridiculous" kind of way. I think you got that, though, right?

And believe me, I know that my little bit of work is a far cry from that of others. :)

Now that that's settled, who's up for some M&M's?

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

CapnHook would! As long as someone else is treating!

I'm game. :)

My point really was that others have been activists for a while and still managed to find what Ripley posted was wrong. So...certain life experiences don't necessarily lead all people to the same conclusions.

Personally, I think being an actor makes me far more insightful about the theatre than many of the loons around here. I just try not to say it out loud.

I'm on a diet. Gotta get in shape for Paris!

I gotcha, RobbieJ. Thanks for pointing that out. Apologies if I offended...

More Scott Caan photos!

Have you seen the NSFW photo of Scott Caan where you can see his... well.... you know? Yowza!

I want to bury my head in that hairy chest.

I'd lick his ****ter.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I don't get the jump to Scott Caan. Is it because he apologized for using the faggot word a few years ago?

I thought it was just a non sequitur to change the subject.

I love this comment from the Towelroad site:

"Anyway, I just read the entire protest threat Andy links to and I don't think anyone is taking the "demonstration" seriously. Halfway through, the thread turns into a comparison of various M&Ms varieties."

I haven't seen this posted yet, but it looks as though this thread has reached Perez Hilton. http://perezhilton.com/2010-06-08-broadway-actress-alice-ripleys-gay-slur-protest-planned

He just tweeted about it as well.

Perez Hilton just posted about the "protest" on his site stating that Ripley should apologize. It must a slow news day.

Funny, Perez can use the offending term to attack will.i.am but Alice can't. Things that make you go hmmm.....

"Some fans are planning a stage door protest at 10 pm on Thursday encouraging others to bring "Alice Hates Fags" signs to the Shubert Alley."

Oh, fer ****'s sake.

[PalJoey]

Those of us who support Alice should show up at 9:45 and stage a counter-protest.

Be ready to RUMBLE!

[Wildcard]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 2:35pm

PRO ALICE: Well they began it

ANTI ALICE: Well they began it

TOGETHER: And we're the ones to stop'em once and for all TONIGHT!

Can I bring my WSS cd?

[PalJoey]

And then Alice comes out on a balcony and sings BOTH the Maria and the Anita sections of the Quintet.

[SNAFU]

....well the voices in her head do.

And then Arthur Laurents starts calling the shots and the whole thing's shot to hell.
