I saw Blythe Danner tonight in Tennessee Williams' "Suddenly Last Summer." I discovered that I am NOT a Tennessee Williams devotee.

That being said, perhaps because the show has a limited run, there were some celebrities in the audience. No one radically well known, but Elizabeth Berkley, the lead in the notoriously rotten "Showgirls" was all tall and leggy and blond 2 rows ahead of me. Dylan Baker and his mom were 4 rows in front. He's a fine character actor who usually plays button-down lawyers, priests, or uptight characters. I've always enjoyed him. And in my row, author Eric Van Lustbader sat alone. I wouldn't have recognized him if he hadn't been part of the "Thriller" panel with FPW.

At any rate, the show was OK, but it was fun checking out the audience to see who was there.

Years ago my mother used to say to me... "In this world, Elwood, you can be oh so smart or oh so pleasant."
Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.

I'm one of the very few people I know that will admit to liking "Showgirls." I liked Elizabeth Berkely, but I especially liked Gina Gershon.

I, too, enjoyed Gina Gershon in that awful film and in just about everything else in which she's appeared.

We saw GG in "Chicago" there a few years ago. She was terriffic.

One year after seeing the Nutcracker at Lincoln Center we went to a restaurant nearby and I got to pee next to John Stamos. Talk about timing!!!

A story to tell the grandkids! :p

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
~ Howard Phillips Lovecraft
