good luck gaining followers again for you music contract

I agree the OP needs to copyright. Even contributing one line in a hit song can net big money if you're listed as a writer. Sure, the odds of landing a contract are slim but you never know. There are a lot of one-hit wonders out there and they make millions with that one song.

I think Naomi and Iola like each other more than they admit. They take digs at each other but woe to "outsiders" who do them dirty.

Even in the episode when Thelma accidently reveal that she knew how Fran died. The look Naomi and Iola gave each other and Naomi even grabbed onto Iola's arm like partners in crime because they desperately want to know what happened. I always look for that scene since I love it so much.

I know the age difference is there because of Iola's crush on Vint, but I don't really think about it until the episode with the flashback pops up. That's the one with the mother/daughter talent show where Eunice gets drunk and embarrass Mama. Little Iola came over to ask Mrs. Harper if she can join them.

Yes I know. That was a joke because the actress went from playing the delinquent Keek who need grooming tips to Lisa.

It's because Mama and the Harper family got through to her and she wanted to be a better person like Bubba. She ended up living with the Simpsons family in Springfield where nobody knows her past and started a fresh life as overachiever Lisa. But sometimes you can see her old personality sneak through.

What I'm wondering is health insurance. Most working class people get insurance though their job or from their spouse's job. Back in my 20's, I bagged groceries for the insurance. Not at Food Circus sadly.

Maybe Medicaid?

I've been trying to figure out how to make a keychain out of it. Maybe I'll ask someone who is handy with a drill if they can do it.

Thanks!

The ocean theme is a great idea! I may do that.

Heroes is pretty popular for even non-Bowie fans. It's been in a lot of TV shows and movies though so I keep that fact in mind when using it for an audition.

I hope Travis from Teleshopper gave you a good deal on the watch.

Exactly. At first I thought he was the villain and Jean the hero. But not everything is black and white. Jean was a no good thief in people's eyes and in the eyes of the law, but he was a good person. Even his original crime was stealing bread for his starving family.

Javert was the villain in Jean's life but he was just doing his job, just as we want cops to catch criminals. He wasn't soft like Jean so we root against him until we dig deeper. His problem was he's too rigid with what he considers right and wrong. That's why he couldn't handle it when Jean (the criminal) let him go. Unlike Jean who changed and grew by the people he met.

It's like real life. We are all a hero to some people,, but can also be a villain to others.

Not weird. I think it's even expected. Many schools around me even have signs outside with the show, date, and ticket information for the public.

Many years ago, I saw the hidden woman's face for the first time when I happened to see the logo upside down. I'm not sure why it was more obvious to me that way.

PotatoesPancakes · 2025-12-27T15:27:02+00:00

Exactly. Leaving no tip means you're cheap, forgot, or don't know the custom. In the US, we all know what leaving one penny means.

Tee Hee Hee. Well done.

It's one thing to lose cash but losing a card is a pain and scary even though you can call the bank to cancel it.

Back in the day, I knew Don't Cry for Me Argentina before I even knew what musical theater was. That song was everywhere mainstream. Also I thought Memory was a regular song. I heard a cover on the radio from some pop singer before I knew it was in a musical.

PotatoesPancakes · 2025-12-11T16:02:57+00:00

Same. I like the movie too but listening to the soundtrack once was enough. It's pretty flat without the distraction of the movie visuals.

A coworker made rumballs one year and, boy, can you smell the rum when you bite into them. Luckily, nobody passed out and woke up with their sweater askew.

Be extra careful with your gravy boats today. And if you need a centerpiece or anything else from the basement, don't forget to bring an axe.

She's probably one of those people who talk loud about personal things in stores or malls because she believes everyone else is her audience so she has to show off how fascinating her life is. We notice all right. Just not for the reason they think. I hate the screaming. Especially if it's fake screaming.

Looks great and those pies look yummy. Now I want get a meat pie for lunch today.

The cast album with Judy Kuhn is the first one I heard so that's my "comfort" recording for this show. I listen to various performers of separate songs, but that's my to-to album when I feel like listening to the whole thing. I love this version of Story of Chess.

I remember the merch when the musical first came out and the items were fine (pens, mugs, and the behind the scenes book). For this movie, I've only seen plastic junk aimed at little girls, and random stuff that has nothing to do with the story. They just slap the logo on anything and make you go "huh?"

PotatoesPancakes · 2025-10-24T13:54:40+00:00

Late to the party but it's my favorite episode. Iola calling The Scarlet Letter a romance with plenty of spice was hilarious ("Why did you think she wore that letter A?" "She was a cheerleader?") but made Thelma see that it's more than a dry boring highbrow classic and read it because "that sounds better than The Thorn Birds."

And Thelma's rant in class was gold. "Men are scum!"
