Posts: 3928 06/06/05 16:44 Gothamite	So did anybody watch the Tony Awards last night? Spamalot didn't exactly pick my favorite numbers, but hey, they had the giant god-feet. I heard such wonderful things about Light in the Piazza but I can't say I cared much for what I saw (and I absolutely adore Florence). Melodically it was sort of... nondescript? I can't see anybody ever leaving the theatre loving that song or remembering it playing at the restaurant when they popped the question. And that woman's accent, what was it supposed to be anyway??? shrug Putnam County Spelling Bee and Doubt cleaned up too. I would have rather seen Pillowman do better, largely because the NY Times critic was so traumatized by its not having much of a theme. Just a damn good story, told well, how dare they! Spamalot got the big prize, no surprise there. <insert Killer Rabbit photo here> Last Edited By: Chris Dee 11/09/09 11:05. Edited 2 times.

Even if it's in a temporary format. And because there are some changes going on my life that will hopefully end up being a very good thing, even if they have the potential to become a very bad thing. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I'm hoping today will behave, really.

Posts: 3928 06/07/05 15:30 Gothamite	Oh, before I forget, more on Spamalot. First story: I saw it preview week, and yet I never got the program autographed because (!) it was F'ing February and Shubert Alley (where the stagedoor is) is the worst goddamn wind tunnel in North America. I will happily tell that to any of the cast if I am ever so fortunate as to meet them. Anyway, it's a really good show. There are lengthy scenes lifted straight from the movie, line-for-line (Cocoanuts, Doubting Dennis, etc.) - which really freed them up in other sections where they're self-aware that they're a broadway musical as much as the movie alluded to the fact that it was a movie. These sections, like "Diva's Lament" (What ever happened to my part!) and "The song that goes like this" is like the best of Forbidden Broadway when they were good! I really love the show. It doesn't pretend to be more than it is. It's a fun bit of fluff, it's Monty Python for godsake. Approach it in that spirit it's a total hoot. Remember gentlemen: What happens in Camelot, stays in Camelot.

I do hope that now you have more time to yourself that Jason and his Demon will be making more appearances in the bar. And tell Ettie that I miss his hellfire s'mores.....

We're not weird, these people are weird." Check out this BBC article and see if you can't guess why I happened to think of that today.

But once that happens, rest assured the three of us will be here, merrily roasting s'mores for those who desire them, and appreciating the free drinks. But through the fury and the flood somehow The demons are acquainted and at ease, And somewhat hard to please. Mine, I believe, is laughing at me now In his primordial way.

Posts: 3928 06/09/05 18:34 Gothamite	Okay, I had just started to think I was too reflexively pessimistic about fanfiction.net's redos last weekend, considering it was EZboard that had all the serious problems. It was those words about "logging in with an open mind" that scared me. But their rearrangement of stuff in the login area didn't seem like anything much. Then today I saw this: *Quote:* If you are experiencing a problem where some links cause IE to literally explode, throw a cryptic error then shutdown, please email support@fanfiction.net with as much information as possible regarding the error message, your operating system and if applicable, your AOL/ICQ/Yahoo IM account so a staff may contact you for further investigation. I'm not sure what I find scarier about this statement: the fact that these people behind a WRITING website are that unclear about the meaning of the words "literally" and "explode" ... or the possibity that they are not confused and might be using the words correctly.

(The big irony is that it was Paul McCartney who told Jackson rights were a great investment). Anyway, looks like I may get my wish.

And because Cake is on the radio at the moment, here's some chocolate cake with melted (still warm) chocolate chips, with a layer of whipped cream on the top, instead of the usual icing. So, warm moist soft cake for everyone! takes a piece (or two) for self and starts eating. (Or would that be indulging myself?) I probably should go and do what I'm supposed* to be doing, work on cleaning my room... Heh, I have to admit,the possibility that Michael Jackson might have to tone down his expenses amuses me to no end. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I'm hoping today will behave, really.
