When it came time to do the skits, our team was called first (thank goodness). It went over very well and got lots of laughs.

Biden press conference: He's baaaaack!

He began strongly, then started slipping, then he got it back . . . sad to say about someone I care about so much, he's erratic.

It was my idea to start with the opening bars of Strauss's "Thus Spake Zarathustra," followed by me hugging the mic and intoning "In a world where...." in my best James Earl Jones imitation.

I am an extreme introvert, so I find that being with a huge crowd all day, and acting like a leader, and being up and positive and enthusiastic all day, has taken a great toll. I am depleted.

I don't do team building exercises. I told them I'm a Martha. I do the work. I don't have ideas.

Our first night went over well.....once the audience realized what they were watching....and the 2nd act was gangbusters.

I did get ALL of my laughs and a couple of others.....and the word of mouth should be good.

We shall see if the phone starts ringing in the box office tomorrow.

The patented HHW vibes did their thing.

The audience was a bit puzzled by our LL - but she didn't realize it.....if it is possible for an entire audience to be nonplussed - it happened tonight in a barn in the middle of a field in Putnam County Indiana.
