sabatoge the graduation!

My cousin Alex graduated from Canandaigua Academy on June 26, 2010 -
I tried to sabatoge the cap and gown at the last minute....
The plan didn't work, so we went to the commencement excercises at CMAC

I'm proud

Now he's ready for school in NYC!

Annoying girl with
Suitcase, move out of the way
You make me so sad

Do not cough into
Your hand and then touch the pole
That's how we get sick

Leaning on the pole
Like that makes you look like you're
totally clueless

Update on the Bear

Update on the Bear who tried to take my day job...


or maybe was trying to get a better look at the Crime Scene on My Desk:
http://eviechevy.blogspot.com/2010/01/csi-mydesk.html

C.S.I. MYDESK

I was out of the office of my day job on Tuesday - when I walked into the office on Wednesday morning I walked right into the site of a Crime Scene...


Close up from east angle...Mouse was apparently the only witness, but later fled the scene. Notice: doors of taxi are open....









Victim was attempting to hit "enter" on keyboard for help.









Victim before the accident - anonymous stress-muscle man (that's like a stress ball, but it's a muscle man instead)









N.Y.C. Flower Taxi medallion 3LNY
(but on the side door it's 8J38A) prior to accident.
The crime scene has been cleared up, and the stress-muscle man is again available for use.
If anyone has any information about the events leading up to this crime scene, please call 1-555-CSIMYDESK .
You do not have to leave your name.

I have changed my outgoing voice message to:

"Hi - You have reached the voicemail of.....someone who has NOT been having an affair with Tiger Woods, but just in case this is his wife calling random numbers from his cell phone, and my number happened to be in there, I have removed my name from this outgoing voice message so I cannot be identified per an "anonymous" tip from a "friend"....Please leave a message at the tone, unless this is Tiger's wife, because I'm scared. Thanks!"

WQXR - The Gratitude Project: Music We’re Grateful For


WQXR - The Gratitude Project: Music We’re Grateful For

The Gratitude Project: Music We’re Grateful For

This Thanksgiving, there's much to be grateful for: family, friends, and even in-laws. There's also music. As we prepare for another Thanksgiving holiday, WQXR reflects on Music We’re Grateful For.

Here's how you can participate: Leave a voice message on our spinvox line at 1-800-543-2543 or email your selections to gratitude@wqxr.org.

Explain why you're grateful for a particular piece of music. Did a Mendelssohn quartet make your wedding complete? Did a Bach partita help you cope with the loss of a loved one? Has Mahler been with you through an interminable air travel delay?

Tell us your story. Give us the full name of the piece, your first name and your neighborhood or city.

We’ll play your choices--and air your voices--all Thanksgiving Weekend.
So call us, write us, and tune in!
Our hosts offer their selections:

Terrance McKnight:
A Flowering Tree is John Adams' latest opera. The story and the music acknowledge and celebrate our multicultural society and our common frailties and humanity. Because of that, future generations will continue to appreciate and identify with the art form. For that I'm grateful.
Midge Woolsey:
Imagine a world full of pianos with no one able to play them! I’m grateful for talented pianists and Vladimir Horowitz was one of my favorites. His performance of Schumann’s Traumerei makes my heart ache with joy.
Elliott Forrest:
I am grateful for Mark O’Connor’s Appalachia Waltz. I was moved the first time heard it, was moved when I heard it played by a group of young amateur musicians and moved again when it was used as underscoring in the recent Ken Burns series about National Parks. It is a timeless piece of Americana.

Broadway Classroom workshop 9.26.09

Saturday, September 26, 2009
I worked at the Broadway Classroom workshop where participants did
a 'mock' vocal audition and learned part of the dance from "COOL"
with John Arthur Greene who plays Riff in WEST SIDE STORY.
After the workshop we saw the show and then go to go backstage for Q&A
with John and Michael Mastro who plays Glad Hand in the show.
What a fun day!!!

uh-oh.....I'm wearing SHARK colors
while posing with the leader of the JETS....
meanwhile, Tony & Maria are making out behind us

Whassup With All This PURPLE?

I had a stand up gig at Broadway Comedy Club on 9/17 and I was wearing a my new purple converse and new purple I heart ny purple sweatshirt.
As I ran down the stairs to the subway this lady was coming up the stairs and I heard her say to her friend....
"Whassup with all this purple?!"
I don't know if it was only directed at me - I am assuming that she must have seen a lot of purple or something.
Anyway - I opened my set with this story - but the audience said they liked the outfit and one of the audience members stopped me after the show and said
"You're right on with the purple... I work in fashion, and purple is really hot right now" -
so
IN YOUR FACE, SUBWAY STAIRS LADY!!!!!!!!!
(but thanks for giving me a good bit to do on stage!) :)
