I like actor and actress. I guess I don't see that any more sexist than male and female are

Well, it wasn't men that considered it sexist. Personally, I like calling men and women actors.

May I once again impose upon your generosity?

I like calling men and women suitcases.

That's just me, though.

I like calling men and women on the phone.

Morning drizzle. I'll remind the stupid weather people of this when we don't have it. And I hope we don't since the workers are finishing up.

Twenty-one pages is nothing to sneeze at - and yet I just sneezed.

who are these people?

I'm quite sure we'll get to 700 posts, which is nothing to sneeze at, and yet I just sneezed.

You should lay off the pepper, bk.

I hope I win a Tony Award tonight!

I've given up on that. I never win anything!

I win drawings and such, but this sort of award, if there is one award, I come in second. If there are three, I come in fourth. Quite irritating actually

OK, this is petty, but we've been winning a lot of awards and great reviews for the new doc, just won one today, and the person who did the most work (moi) and had the most creative input is rarely, if ever mentioned. I worked harder on this than anything in my life and think it's my best work, so it's just a little unmotivating reading how beautifully crafted it was by someone whose main contribution was the funding. Then again, it would never have been made without the funding, so I should be grateful, but it just bugs me enough to not be completely thrilled by those kind of accolades, and it bugs me even more that I can't be completely thrilled, if that makes sense.

Listen, Mister Lassner...

Exactly, confusing and sounds silly

If a woman is a painter do you call her a paintress? How about a sculpter? A sculpteress?

At least this cast has some energy.

vixmom · « **Reply #651 on:** June 09, 2013, 07:46:00 PM »

Hey BK what do the casts who perform get paid? A stipend or a regular performance salary?

Jrand74 · « **Reply #652 on:** June 09, 2013, 07:45:03 PM »

Well I liked that.....it wasn't much of a song....but there was lots of treadmill choreography!

singdaw · « **Reply #653 on:** June 09, 2013, 07:46:30 PM »

I like that the pre-show award winners at least get a few seconds of air time.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #654 on:** June 09, 2013, 07:46:36 PM »

I feel your pain DR EDI.

Oh, who doesn't want a prince charming....

Check out the book, "Cinder Edna." It's a modern retelling and very cute.

Regarding the raccoon issue, lots of folks here have that problem with possums. A friend of mine had a recycling can crusher in his garage and a possum decided to build a "fort" and carried up dozens of crushed cans to the attic!

As for us, we just have snakes that migrate between the attic and basement, depending on the time of year. At least they're quiet!

I understand it completely, edisaurus.

I'm not sure what the performers get paid. I do know the producers of each show pay for their own numbers that are performed - it doesn't cost the Tony people a damn thing. I do not think that was always the case.
