Pausing over Paws

Dear Lady Gaga,

My paws have been up for sometime now that I've lost feeling in them. When can I put them down?

Or is that the point that my paws are always up, always vigilant against the forces of evil. Like the drones at Target. Never mind I answered my own question. xoxox


Your little monster,

March

It either comes in like a lion or out like a lamb. Mine arrives as Yosemite Sam....this verbage is frequently found in my Jew Cube and on crowded New York City streets. What am I saying all New York streets are crowded.

The winding road....

What a long strange trip it has been, but I can tell you all there is NOTHING better than seeing a dear friend blossom into the performer you knew them to be all along. Here are some amazing words about my sister from another mister, Laura Beth Wells, from her co-star Patrick Page (aka The Green Goblin) via Playbill.com:

Tom Nondorf:
I enjoy the moments of humanity that you bring to Norman, like when you're doing a little waltz with Laura Beth Wells. You both seem kind of lost in each other. If there's any moment that we can look back at and feel the pain that Norman later feels, that's it.

Patrick Page:
Oh, absolutely. That's a real key moment. That's a moment that's gone through all kinds of evolutions as we've done the show that we've really wanted to hold onto. In a way, what I was talking about with a musical, you've got very little time to communicate an enormous amount. So, having them there together looking into each other's eyes hopefully tells the audience a lot about what they mean to each other. That's exactly the kind of thing that I love doing. I love working with Laura Beth. It's so funny, she's been in the business for a long time, and she's this extraordinary actress and singer. This is her first Broadway show. When she first came to the city, she was ushering in The Lion King at the New Amsterdam Theatre. She's really come all that way, and I love being with someone who not only is so gifted and so giving on stage, but who really understands how blessed we are to be doing this for a living.

Catch her on The Late Show with David Letterman on March 1st shaking that deserving Broadway jelly with her Spidey-Mates!!

Birth Month!

As my birth month is quickly coming to an end, lord how it just flies by, I would like to address the idea of unlucky 13.

Born on the 13th of February I have never found the numeral to be cursed or scary. In fact a ton of amazing things have happened on that day.




Rent first opened Feb. 13, 1996, at New York Theatre Workshop.

Israel bought the Dead Sea Scrolls on 13th February, 1955 from the Syrians for $250,000. What a deal!

A four-passenger Thunderbird was made by the Ford Company 13th February, 1958; they don't make cars like that anymore.

Stockard Channing was born 13-Feb-1944, I have had dreams she plays my mom in a play someday.

Tennessee Ernie Ford the Country Musician, 13-Feb-1919, Ernie we are all one day older and deeper in debt.

David Naughton 13-Feb-1951 Actor, An American Werewolf in London, the original hottie werewolf....arrroooo!

Henry Rollins crazy amazing talker & musician 13-Feb-1961, aka my brother from another mother!!

Mena Suvari 13-Feb-1979 wow NOT so much older than her than I thought!!

Robbie Williams 13-Feb-1974 well we had to get a little more glitter on the team!

Grant Wood Painter 13-Feb-1892 famous for American Gothic

Chuck Yeager Aviator 13-Feb-1923 Test pilot, first to break speed of sound...speedy!

Not to say that there weren't awful things that happened on the 13th but for me I have always found luck in being the odd one out. Somehow it's infamy makes me feel special, as if that star on that day singles out my defiance of what the world feels is strange or unusual. People are wary of it and I kinda like it. So beware the tribe of the "Tredici" is out there walking under ladders and crossing your path.

A long time in the manifesting, but....

After the Oscars I am taking that soul sucking, DVR'ing, must watch everything and stop living machine back to Mt. Doom and throwing it into the Time Warner money pit from which it sprang.

Then after some lembas bread I'm starting my $8 a month Netflix que.....EEEEEEE! So excited the shire will be at peace at last.
