DR TCB?

He's indivisible.

He's the indivisible man, as it were.

Four is such an even number...and it's divisible by two.

But according to School House Rock!, THREE is a Magic Number!

NEVER went to School House Rock!

The only magical number to me would be the one I (never) play at the Lotery were the winning number!!

Yeah, but I have always wanted to be the invisible man for a day. Imagine the locker rooms I could wander!

THE 50,000 FINGERS OF DR. T is on TCM tonight. If you've never seen it, watch and be tickled and amused.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #102 on:** March 23, 2006, 04:31:09 PM »

Am I remembering correctly?

"It's a petard!"

Is that a line from "The Fantasticks"?

Commercial I've seen one time too many #546:

That Applebee's ad with the two folk singers wailing out the wonders of their seafood menu to the tune of the Theme from Gilligan's Island. It's like six or seven high concepts smushed together into something that makes no sense whatsoever. On top of that, it's annoying as hell how often it's played.

The bass player reminds me of Bill Mumy when he was in his twenties.

No, but I think you've stumbled onto a new and exciting type of massage therapy.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #106 on:** March 23, 2006, 04:39:48 PM »

I seem to remember a line from a play or musical--"He's been strung up on his own petard!" What's that from?

I've never seen it. I remember when I was a kid and I saw commercials for it...it kind of scared me, so I never watched it. $:-\$ I wonder if I would like it now (I don't get TCM, though).

How amusing can 50,000 fingers be, do you suppose?

I was just beginning to recover from the news that there was a new musical on the horizon called ZHIVAGO. Now, I have just heard reported on our local TV station that a new musical, based on the life of Seattle favorite son, Bruce Lee, is due on Broadway in 2008. The show will reportedly feature a score by David Bowie.

I wonder if the number of posts...and posters...we've had thus far today has anything to do with difficulty accessing this site.

I've had considerable troubles this morning getting in....of course, once I got in, I wasn't booted out...but I've gotten strange messages several times saying something about a "sock" in my "SQL".

I wondered where the odd socks ended up...

It took me a really long time to log in earlier tonight.

I, too, had a lot of trouble earlier this afternoon. Seems to be better now.

On Sunday, Rodzinski and I are attending a wedding brunch/shower type deal for some friends of ours who will be getting married on the beach in Jamaica next month. (Sadly we will not be in attendence) I am helping to organize this with a friend.

Does anyone have any kicky wedding shower game ideas? We are looking to do something fun and non-traditional. Maybe something that would involve the bride and/or groom taking shots. We are NOT going to construct a bridal gown out of toilet paper or make people guess the number of safety pins in a jar.

We thought about maybe doing a variation on the newlywed game where they have to guess eachother's response. I thought in this creative bunch, folks might have some other fun ideas.

Wow, I just saw the video footage of the fire on the Star Princess. The cabin I had on its maiden voyage seems to have been one of those destroyed

Post # 7000!!

I'm off now to do concessions for a performance (one of four) called: Paul Zaloom: The Mother of All Enemies. Paul Zaloom was Beekman in "Beekman's World." It promises to be a very entertaining evening!

Here's the description from WCPA's website:

Quote

Paul Zaloom is an OBIE-winning puppeteer and performance artist who has written, designed and performed 12 solo spectacles, including Fruit of Zaloom, Sick But True, and now his latest, The Mother of All Enemies.

A mutation of the traditional Middle Eastern Karagoz shadow puppet play (famous in Turkey, Greece, Egypt, and Syria) about the consequences of being on the fringes of society…EVERY society. Periodically the show is interrupted by cantastoria, or picture performance, an age-old story telling technique; employing his weird and amusing drawings, Zaloom recounts the U.S. Marines repeated efforts to recruit him (he’s sorta old for the Marines: 54. He’s also gay…) It’s all comedy, needless to say.

The shadow show tells the twisted story of an Arab, secular humanist/Quaker/Buddhist/ agnostic/ political refugee/immigrant/queer/ artist/weirdo’s adventures while being comically pursued by various enemies: Syrian Secret Service, Israeli border guards, Al Qaeda, Homeland Security, the Statue of Liberty, Christian “Ex Gay” activists, and U.S. immigration vigilantes the Minutemen. The idiot savant Karagoz foils their evil plans, dispatching them one by one with subterfuge, obfuscation, and cheap puppet gimmicks. They all fail; he triumphs.

Zaloom jiggles his puppets, recounts absurd emails with Marine recruiters, creates the entire soundscape with his voice, and uses drawings to illuminate the perverse workings of our “civilization” with a frontal comic assault. Don’t miss his new work in a four-night run in the Black Box!

Needless to say (but they do): "SUBJECT MATTER IS INTENDED FOR MATURE AUDIENCES"

Yes, without any acknowledgment, they seem to have fixed the problem.
