Tomfoolery Nears Departure to HHI

Today is our last day in Clemson. Well we rehearse in Pendleton actually. Tomorrow am we head to Hilton Head Island. Tonight we do a complete run-through of the show for a guest audience of four. Perhaps I should call it a smash through of the show. 🙂 We open next Thursday night. The first act is 45 minues and the second act is 40 minutes. I wish we had a band and an extra cast member but we’ll have to make do with me plus three plus Mr. Yamaha’s 88.

Report from Clemson

We’ve been working on Tomfoolery for about a week now and we have about a week of rehearsals left. Sometimes it’s hard to imagine that this show will come together at all. The people can do it, it’s just a lot of songs to learn at one time. I’m a bit tired and I wish I had more than a single day off (on Monday). I have several other things I’d like to be doing, but I’m here for a job and I have precious little free time which I must reserve for down time to recharge for the next day’s rehearsals.

BOLO—Crime Alert Bulletin—Stolen Hearts – 26

I like posting random personals ads that I come up with so they don’t get lost into internet oblivion. I had an inspiration the other day and I just had to write this one. Not a great response, but I didn’t expect any. I just posted my creativity in the appropriate forum. 🙂 —- BULLETIN—BE ON THE LOOKOUT:—- Suspect: Male cauc., 5’10”, 175lbs. Brn hair/blu eyes, intelligent, likes theater/music, can be found playing piano or working on computers editing video.

Why Doesn’t Online Dating Work for Me?

Why is online dating so difficult? Is it because of the cover of anonymity that people become more inconsiderate and picky? With so many seemingly great men to choose from, women can simply delete or ignore someone who doesn’t fit her perfect ideal. At least in the offline world she would be held accountable for at least saying “no, thanks.” (same goes for men, too) Or am I confusing the issues and is it simply a matter of logistics—that women can’t even reply to all the emails they receive from these sites?

Sometimes it’s possible to make no mistakes and still lose.

If Only I Could Slap Desert VW Upside the Head…

…I’d seriously consider doing it. It will be two weeks tonight that my car was dropped off at their service center. They still do not have an injection pump for my car. I was told last week that they would have it by last Friday (a week after the first estimate). It was not there. Then I was told today. It was not there. Then I was told tomorrow. You can guess what they’ll say tomorrow. Plus it’ll be at least another day until they get it in my car, assuming they even know how to do that.

MySpace/Friendster Bulletin Time

Here’s a fun personals ad that I thought up. I posted it as a bulletin on MySpace and Friendster so my friends can get a kick out of it. :) Who knows, maybe they’ll pass it along to their cute actor friends (who get the joke). At the very least I would hope it demonstrates my creativity and sense of humor.
