Rushes? You could have Hollywood looks, how the heck would I know? I had you pegged for the Broadway stage. Maybe, I'm wrong about that. Maybe not.

I'm glad you are on this project, don't get me wrong, but at some point you should wander over to Readers Wanted: Dramatic Works. I don't know why I stayed out of there so long, myself, but I recently stumbled in that door and wasn't tossed out. I got a part ... an actual speaking part ... two lines and I did not blow the chance completely! I'm so proud!

Seriously, there are people on this project who seem to live there. ToddHW, for example, is like maybe a producer or something. And I think maybe Val has been hanging around the stage door lately, looking to elbow her way in. Check it out. You'd be good at it. No joke.
Note that the door to Dramatic Works is sorta one-way. Addiction sets in as you enter and you will (almost) never go back outside to other things, including Real Life, again....

You have been warned, Todd
So you're saying that even if I wrap my head in aluminum foil, won't matter a bit? I may have to consult my ouija board on this one.

Aluminum foil is a bit modern for the plays we do - I'm in ancient Greece with Aristophanes "Birds" this evening - but even if it had been invented then, resistance would still be useless....

Abandon Hope All Ye, etc.

Thanks, Todd

If I've learned anything from Ike Swift, it's that everybody is trying to con everybody else all of the time. Believe you me, kid, I won't steer you wrong. And you can take that to the bank!

If you come across Diogenes, tell him he still owes me twenty bucks, the bum.

Thanks, much!
Chuck,

Your corrections were great, completely seamless. However, in one of those corrections, you made a different mistake :( :

8:41 so long as she was satisfied? You said far
