So I’m writing this while watching Transformers. That script has some questionable lines and moments and a decidedly male perspective, but I always crack up at the scene where Sam’s mother asks him is he’s having his “happy time”?! The nasal resonance in her voice made it all the more a ‘nails on a chalkboard’ [...]

No this ain’t Cats, but as a musical theatre junkie and show tune connoisseur can I just say “Mr. Mistofelees” is a fun song? By the time I left Denver I felt as if I were Fantine from Les Miz singing “I Dreamed A Dream” and wanting to storm the barricades. Supershuttle should change its [...] It is now approximately 1226am. I attempted to leave Invesco 15 minutes before the end of Obama’s speech due to concerns about being able to get out. Why? Well my trip going to Invesco was soooo fun. There were supposed to be free shuttle buses at specified pick-up points due to security for those with [...] I would be remiss in not mentioning the number of protests and the various groups of people expressing their dissatisfaction with the policies of the US gov’t.

I’m sure there’ll be plenty of analysis all over the blogosphere and with the teevee pundits. I thought it was a very safe speech. But I found it interesting. She clearly loves her family and supports her husband’s political aspirations. Michelle had [...] Phew I made it. My flight was cancelled 5 minutes before departure and then miraculously reinstated. Then we were turned away from 2 gates at landing. I’m just glad I was able to get to Denver in one piece! The altitude change is no joke or exaggeration by the way. It doesn’t help that I [...] Hey All, I am wrapping up final preparations for my trip to the Democratic National Convention. I can’t wait to meet my fellow bloggers, delegates, protesters and average citizens. Also I’ve never been to Denver. Well actually, when I first moved to CA my friend and I drove out from NY and took the Northern [...] From the musical Hairspray. Lyrics: Hey I can’t see Why people look at me And only see the color of my face And then there’s those That try to help, god knows But have to always put me in my place But I won’t ask you to be color blind ‘Cause if you [...] |
