Let me get this straight....the same, naive, little, sweet high-school-kid that posted these "scalding, whiplashes"....is admonishing the "Catizens" to Be NICE??????

Well, just to update... Last night, I did a quick "Usher Orientation", authorizing them to eject people who couldn't behave. It turned out, however, that merely asking people to be quiet worked pretty well. Our only problem was the jerk with the laser pointer, and he was removed with little difficulty by one of our larger and more imposing looking ushers between acts. As to small children, the hard part is determining what sort of performance environment is appropriate. For instance, someone brought a three year old to The Crucible. This play really isn't appropriate for little kids...it's quite long and deals with difficult themes. However, some shorter concerts and such are good behavior training, as long as the kid has at least some degree of self-control.

As my grandmother is fond of saying, "You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar." My response is usually, "I don't want to catch any flies; I'd rather just swat them." However, Granny's usually right about such things. When I can keep my temper under control, I try to take the polite route first. Fewer knife fights occur that way.

Though this goes WAY back, the song katlaughing mentioned is called "New Age Girl", by Deadeye Dick. My worst line is really not bad in and of itself, but because it is repeated at least eighty-four thousand times: Take it to the limit one more time. Every time that song gets to the end on my CD player, I cut it off. Of course, some more modern pop is considerably worse. I mean, Britney Spears "Hit me baby one more time"? Yuck.

As soon as 'spaw came into the room, Caitrin walked over to him. She knew better than to ask where he'd been. Wherever he went, he had his reasons. "It's gettin' late. I've gotta help Mbo close up. You want to meet me over at the tavern later?" she says. "Sure, babe." "Alright...I'll see you there, then." Caitrin gets a tray and starts clearing tables...What a day this had been.

Oh, if we're going to get into military songs,I know lots of those. I have an uncle who was Airborne and got a big kick out of teaching me stuff that would tick off my mother.

For instance...
There are no airborne rangers in the navy,
They spend all their time on boats,
doing God knows what with goats,
There are no airborne rangers in the navy. It goes on to say unflattering things about West Point and the air force, as well. There's doubtlessly a Marine Corps verse, too, but I don't know it.

Good Lord Help US!!!!!These are the ones that will be paying OUR social security!!!

Thank Heavens we will have depleted it before THEY are eligable....Lord knows they aren't worthy.
