And, Ann, I got my "Post Slut" t-shirt today. It's great! I love the big Chef Success button on the back.Hey, people, if you haven't ordered one yet, you don't know what you're missing.

All those years of playing to the back of the theater can come in handy.

Me, too!

I was in a show in college that was the first one to use the new set of wireless mics. The theater majors were bummed because it was officially a music department production (Into the Woods, I was Cinderella's stepmother). One of the mics gave out after the first performance. I had to give mine up because "You can project to the back of the house." Pretty sad considering that a lot of the leads were vocal performance majors and should have been able to project. And on the nights I did have a mic, I had to make sure I covered it when I screamed in the second act - didn't want to blow out any eardrums.

Hey! I was in Into the Woods in High School.

 

[raebates]

Theater is a wonderful outlet for those of us who were always being told to keep quiet.

 

[katie0128]

And for the class clowns and those constantly told to sit still...

That is really sad that they couldn't project... that was one of the first things we talked about/worked on in diction class and voice lessons in college (started my college career as a music ed/vocal perfom major).

My son was in Into The Woods too. I had never heard of it before then.

I WAS a music ed major. That's not what I do now, though. ooooh.... small world.....

 

[amy07]

too many hours with no new posts - gotta keep my reputation ya know!

 

[chefann]

Nope, my turn!

 

[BethCooks4U]

Have a good weekend!

Yeah, now you punch buttons on a keyboard, which I think we established in another thread (maybe it was this one... hard to keep track) that I actually understood your ramblings about that, too! Don't think I've ever meet a musically inclined computer geek like me! How fun. Can't wait to meet you in person at conference!!!

 

[pamperedalf]

I love stoping in here to see the die hards still posting away. It probably would have died if it was up to me. Thank God it wasn't.

 

[katie0128]

Constant amusement for others... that's what we are here for!

 

[cat]

Anyone awake? I took a 4 hour nap, from 9PM to 1AM and now I'm going back to bed!

Just wanted to see how long I can be the last poster.

 

[raebates]

I wasn't awake when you posted, but I'm awake now.

 

[pchefkristin]

Good Sunday Morning all! Its cold here in Michigan, but yesterday was amazingly beautiful! Hope you all have a great day....

 

[chefann]

brrr... stupid Michigan weather. Didn't the sun get the memo that it's late May?

 

[BethCooks4U]

I just had to come in from the deck. it's in the mid 80's here and I was getting a burn!

 

[chefann]

pbbhht...Darn you.

 

[pcchris]

brrr... stupid Michigan weather. Didn't the sun get the memo that it's late May?

Not just stupid Michigan weather.....stupid Wisconsin weather too. At least we're cold at the same time. Is it ever gonna get and stay warm? These 1-2 days of high 70's and then it's 51 the next day really bites. Yeah, I know......whaaaaaaa!

It would be nice to be able to put my winter clothes away.

 

[amy07]

Happy Monday Cheffers!

 

[chefann]

Happy Monday!

Wait-- it's Monday. What's so happy about that?

Chris.... where in WI are you? I used to live in Madison for MANY MANY MANY years. I agree... your weather is worse than ours by far... and you wouldnt really think it being so close.

 

[raebates]

I know what you're up to. You people think that by talking about the weather we'll all get bored and you'll be able to kill this thread. It's not gonna work!

 

[chefann]

So what's the weather like in lovely Indiana, Rae?

 

[raebates]

Pretty nice right now. Chilly in the morning, but low to mid 80's in the afternoon.

 

[chefann]

We're forecast for upper 60's today.

 

[raebates]

Ooh, that is a bit chilly. Dress warm. We don't want you catching a cold.

 

[chefann]

I'm in jeans (I love this client site!), a cami, and a tweed jacket today.

You're sweet...

 

[raebates]

I figure if you get a cold you won't be here as often. I would miss you.

Of course, I wouldn't necessarily miss you on this thread, you know, if you wanted to just let me win.

 

[AJPratt]

This thread reminds me of the book Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein.

 

[raebates]

I don't think I've ever read that one. How does this thread remind you of it?

 

[jasonmva]

I am hoping this will push the post to page 100....then what do I win

 

[jasonmva]

Rashafrasa....need a longer post

 

[BethCooks4U]

82-84 today here in North Carolina! Lovely Carolina blue skies. And I'm in a closet painting (well, I should be!). And then I have to prepare 8 new host packets (WOO HOO!!!). They are for June and early July shows (besides the ones I already sent!)!

And I have 5 people to get back to for dates on top of that! WML!

 

[raebates]

Our undying admiration.

 

[BethCooks4U]

Jason, could you please explain your picture?? It's too small to really see...

 

[amy07]

Jason, could you please explain your picture?? It's too small to really see...

He's hiding from you Mom

 

[raebates]

Until he tells us otherwise, I'm assuming it's him in drag.

 

[AJPratt]

Until he tells us otherwise, I'm assuming it's him in drag.

Nah.... I think he'd like more jewelry. I know I would.

 

[raebates]

You didn't picture him in fewer clothes? I mean, we're talking about Jason here. You know. Mr. Thong?

 

[AJPratt]

I don't know... that was a strappy little number in the photo.

 

[raebates]

True. It looks like he's on stage. I wonder if he's considering a second career.

 

[chefann]

I bet there's a thong under the skirt....

 

[chefann]

Backwards.

 

[amy07]

nah, I got it from a good source its Janet Jackson.

 

[raebates]

Nope. Until Jason tells us differently, it's him in drag.

 

[chefann]

And we want him to wear that outfit for the meet 'n' greet in Chicago!
