Stumped it with "stage manager". Which fits, because they're not supposed to be noticed anyway.

LOL.

My mom and I went digital camera shopping today. The first thing my mom says to the kid at circuit city is "My daughter collects and sells purses. I need to find a camera that takes good pictures of them" :teehee:

You should see our diningroom table right now

Sigh. I bet a heroin addict would have put "heroin" in for his object. Me, I put "purse".

I've been doing this one on and off for years. I'm actually registered with a couple of hundred sessions. I think she is doing great work.

Your old music cannot sustain you through a life, not if you're someone who listens to music every day, at every opportunity. You need input, because pop music is about freshness, about Nelly Furtado and the maddeningly memorable fourth track on a first album by a band you saw on a late-night TV show. And no, that fourth track is not as good as anything on Pet Sounds or Blonde on Blonde or What's Going On, but when was the last time you played Pet Sounds? - Songbook by Nick Hornby
