Feel-better vibes to MBarnum.  

Maybe your neighbor's wife will bring you some soup.

At any other site, in any other context, this sentence would have "implications".

Maybe your neighbor's wife will bring you some soup.

Or maybe she'll send her husband over to deliver it.

It's lunchtime...and I'm ready to call it a day.

Or maybe she'll send her husband over to deliver it.

Oh, wait.  DR FJL said "soup," not "soap".  

Oh, wait.  DR FJL said "soup," not "soap".  

Of course it wasn't soap...that's what the market delivery boy is for.

And why did we ever buy him those damn long pants?

(Oh, wait, that's so last week )

Co-starring with Bea Lillie, no doubt.

Let it never be said that The Usurper was premature.

Premature usurpation--I'm pretty sure there's a drug for that.

It's a good thing that there is no groaning allowed on HHW!  

A memorable line (seriously) from an ad in Backstage from someone giving those auditioning workshops was the haunting "I know what they say when you leave the room."

Ouch!

Oh no!  What shall I wear??

Miss karen will decide that. In fact, we may have to pull her out of retirement just for the occasion.

I had a weird dream.  We were having a two-show day which would be attended by very important producers and fellow industry folks, and one of our cast members invoked the part of the rules that allowed him or her to accept an audition between shows and informed us that there was no guarantee he or she would be back for the start of the second of the two performances.  Very harrowing, and luckily I woke up and it was all a dream.

From what I've heard that is reality all too often.

The cashier at Borders just messed up.  [Sorry, DR td!]  He rang up my $50.00 item, already discounted at 20%, and added my 30% coupon on top, so I got it for $25.00.

Not too shabby.

And I am morally reprehensible for not pointing it out.

I must be punished.

Actually, Singdaw, we CAN do that.  The coupon only works on the S.R.P of the item, NOT on the marked 20%. . .
The computers are programmed to do it that way. . .but I suppose errors could be made; I know that where I am, the coupon will only take off from the list price, not the sales price, and there's nothing we can do about it.
That is why we often point out that the marked discount is already better than the coupon's discount. . .
