You know, now that I'm thinking about it, maybe Sondheim is on board with this. I say that because he seems to be ok with toned-down, child appropriate versions of this show. I mean, that really was what the 2002 B'way revival was. And then at the Wall-to-Wall Sondheim marathon 75th Birthday tribute (my most…

ARGH! This is worst casting then that time where the 2002 Broadway revival cast some prat-falling dude in a cow suit to play Milky White.

It's barely even considered middle class. Because of the cost of living, middle class in Manhattan starts at $80k.

My favorite NYC sighting is a somewhat recent one (I've been here for over 10 years); it was Amy Poehler and Nick Kroll at Aquagrill in the Village. My friend and I were waiting for our table in the bar and they were sitting right behind us having dinner at the bar. She blended in well, so I probably wouldn't have…

We can throw that party and show Selena how to do it right (and, you know, without the cultural insensitivity). I will do ahead and invite Sondheim. :-)

HA! That's EVEN BETTER than what I imagined. All I could picture were the strip teases and ... Let me entertain you. Let me make you smile. Let me do a few tricks. Some old and then some new tricks. I'm very versatile.

It really would have been much cooler if she'd thrown a Gypsy: The Musical themed birthday party. Your loss, Ms. Gomez.

This exact same situation happened to me (flying home from the East Coast to SD with a layover in Las Vegas) and they grounded us in LV because of fog in SD, except somehow my luggage made it to the last flight going out. I was stuck at that horrendous LV airport where every area had huge screens and blaring sounds…

ARRRGH! I really, really loved that show. I really should have given up hope for its renewal months ago.

Was there puke (in that show, that is) involved because I can do all the bloody and pus-filled gore there is, but I can't do puke.

TimeWarner Cable dropped Ovation here in NYC a few months ago. Bastards!

err... I meant to say 'someone.'

Yikes! You sure are not representing serious scholars of the arts and humanities well. Speaking of zombies, movies and serious scholarship, does World War Z belittle military theory because Max Brooks wanted to explore how the military would respond to a zombie attack?

Eee...this makes me very happy. Oh Bret...I've missed you so!

In my experience, it's more effective than condoms. We've had condoms break or slip off and had no idea that the slippage or breakage had happened until too late. We've had a whole lot more control with withdrawal. It's really an amazing method for those in a very specific situation. For me, for example, I…

My husband watched Liberal Arts recently and liked it. He kept the movie on the DVR so he could show me the Twilight-like book hate scene. I found that incredibly charming despite the fact that Ted Mosby comes off a little dickish in the scene.

My sister is constantly telling me about all the annoying and sometimes assholey things my nephew does and ALWAYS has an excuse for them (tired, going through a growing spurt, isn't use to his new schedule...etc., etc....). I was sick of hearing this (and worried that she's always going to make excuses for him and…

I've lost track of casting news, but i think they were going for a lesser known/Broadway actor for Jack. God, I hope so, because if they fuck up "Giants in the Sky"....ummm...emails may be written! Or..more likely....an angry tweet will be tweeted!

Maybe Doug is confusing it with 'Sweeney Todd?' But maybe even that is giving him too much credit.

In college I worked hard (and, retrospectively, probably in a unhealthy manner) to lose all the fat that I gained from ages 14 - 19. By the end of my freshmen year I was the smallest I had been in my adult body but I only appreciated it for a minute before I started feeling incredibly insecure again. Yup, I yearn…
