It's nice to use HHW English usage in everyday life.  I was describing a body cam video where the lady in question had claimed to police that her shoulder had been fractured at 8:30 that morning.  But then, there she is on the police body cam around 10:30 (two hours later) waving her arms, almost doing calisthenics and pole dancing with a railing on the terrace. 

To lighten the tone of the email, I described the 10:30 video as  "Then Ms. P--- looks like she's practically doing the Lambada (The Forbidden Dance) with that railing."

;D

You can keep your Ethel, I'll take Audra anytime. What is it that you find painful or that you can't get into?

Her dreadful vocal performance of the material. She tortures the shit out of those songs.

Got the Muse Margaret call before I left this morning. I knew as I was struggling through about six pages towards the part where I stopped writing, that it just didn't feel right or good to me and that's exactly the part she wasn't happy with - easy to fix - just a couple of deletions and rewriting a paragraph or two to change the tone. And she thought I needed a paragraph prior to the one I begin with and she was absolutely right in her reasons for all of it. Aside from that, she absolutely loved everything else, which was the majority. And so, I revised, wrote a new opening paragraph that I'm pretty happy with, and sent to her. I'll wait for her call, and then I'll continue on to the next chapter.

Muse Margaret read the revised stuff and is now 1000% happy. Glad I have her. The new opening paragraph was so necessary, but I couldn't see it because I'd written it the way I did over eight months ago. And so, onward we go, but not at a frantic pace.

I am sorry DR MICHAEL G I have to agree with DR ELMORE - the current star of GYPSY is doing a piss poor and in her own mind glorious version of Rose.....and the less I hear of it the better.

I know you saw it and enjoyed it.....and I am not comparing her to ANY previous interpreter of the role....just saying she made ALL the wrong choices.

Happy that others enjoy her ridiculous antics.

Apparently BOOP! and Smash were invited to perform on the Tonys for $300,000. Both shows said yes, and both were then told no. WTF?

I can sort of see the sky right now. Haven't been able to for a week due to smoke from wildfires further north.

Here's how it's going to work: Once up and I have a link, you'll PM or email me and I'll send you the link - it's only going to be up for a few days - you do have to promise that you will NOT share the link with ANYONE.

That's disappointing. And disillusioning.
