Funny thing about the American Gothic. Since I was exposed to it at such a young age, it never registered how much younger she was than him. As a youngster, they both looked old. Curious how perception changes.
Hil, you really need to start recording these conversations. 1) for HR to hear what a douchenozzle he is. 2) you might be able to sell it to some comedian for material. The shit he is saying is just so ridiculous, it's almost funny. Almost. Either way, something has to be said, it's clearly effecting you. Maybe you can ask if he has any vacation time coming up, because you'd love the silence from the idiotic, racist questions for a few days.

Since our next season has been announced, I can talk about it now! There is one show that might be of interest to some folks (MiracleMan). Amazingly enough, MTV.com is talking about it. Us. Down here. In lil old Dallas, TX:

This is me. And I've stood in front of the painting for a long time, thinking about who they were and what their lives were like. It didn't occur to me how much older he was until the discussion here today.
omnis... is the musical a comedy?
I agree the guy's a douche, but he seems much more clueless than malicious. If Hil isn't going to let him know that this kind of talk bothers her, she can't blame him for not knowing that. If she tells him it makes her uncomfortable and he STILL does it, then she should take further action.
Yeah, he should know that it might bother her, but he doesn't. As adults, we are responsible for drawing our own boundaries, because there are a lot of clueless people out there--plus each of us have different levels of acceptable conversation. I know I have unintentionally said things which overstepped others' boundaries in the past, and I would guess all of us have whether we knew it or not. Peeples are complicated and they needz handling.

omnis... is the musical a comedy?
The original was crazy campy, like Batman TV series campy. Twas the times. I'm not sure if the re-imagined version is pure comedy, or drama with comedy in it. We just recently got permission to revamp it, so, the script is a work in progress.
I tried to get my nephew to go to open auditions for Spider-Man on Broadway but he's too busy with his band. Ooh they have their first gig in two weeks in Long Beach! They're The Barrelhousers if you want to check them out. I haven't been to their Myspace page yet. Even my nephew's massive talent hasn't dragged me there... yet.

Now you guys just need to bring me out to design something.

But only during a school break so I can come, too!
I'm trying! Maybe you could send a letter of intro to our Artistic Director. It's his choice. I know Giff has brought your name up a couple times during the season. The new space is LORT C.
omnis, did you get my latest email re: arrival & departure to Seattle?
