Rag Land

Well, this post is specifically for Zhubin, Bone, Rachel, and Zack. I started rehearsals on monday for the national tour of Joseph and His Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. I am playing Levi, singing One More Angel, riffing like a gospel singer in Go, Go, Go Joseph and otherwise doing all the crazy stuff this show entails. I have a 6 month contract that goes all over the UK. Anywho, having a great time with the cast but wanted to let you all know that the amount of diversity in my cast is sadly lacking when compared to the cultural stew that was our most august performance "way, way back many centuries ago"... So, just wanted to let you guys know so you can fly over here and beat my cast members up and save the day by taking their places...excellent...need a big, black brother and a short skinny Persian one...is there anyone dad wouldn't sleep with?!

Just a quick thought. Is anyone else a bit troubled by the hanging of Hussein. I mean, I agree that he has committed crimes against humanity and that he must face the consequences, but I think the speed with which the execution was carried out is a little chilling. It may be the first time the length of time in the American judicial system regarding executions seems like a good idea.

Anywho, for the largest tangent jump in history, also hope everyone had a wonderful new year. As I am 5-8 hours ahead of you all, I will of course keep you informed of events that are happening in your future so you can be ready. Also, just picked up the His Dark Materials trilogy and am working on that. Any others who have read it, your thoughts would be welcome (and Zhubin feel free to wax philosophically about the merits of it versus truly great literature...like Sons and Lovers?! Freak...)

Happy New Year to you all...may it be fun and full of excitement...and cake...mmmm...cake...

PS: New Year's resolution...use even more elipses...yeah...good idea...that's the ticket...these rock...Zhubin loves them...sweet man...neutered...
