I just read an article about the new Cirque du Soleil show, directed by Robert LePage: [link]
This paragraph made me think ita would like it:
To its always inventive demonstration of traditional circus arts, it has fused Chinese Opera, martial-arts disciplines such as Wushu and Brazilian Capoeira, human-scale puppetry, pyrotechnics and multimedia technologies.
But this is what got me drooling:
Imagine a Broadway stage that can rise, fall, float, become completely vertical, or tilt, often at alarming, gravity-defying angles, and you'll have some idea of what Lepage has conceived. All the theatre's innards lie exposed -- inches, cables, conduits. Attached to wires, the performers leap and soar like actors in a live version of the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Wasn't that the best? I adore him. He's one of my favorites. And I love his tributee, too.
I'm also adoring
Jamie Foxx
at the moment.
I love how Cirque du Soleil is able to design the theatre around the show instead of having to find a way to make the show fit in the space.
LePage is doing Cirque du Soleil? Very cool.
I've been flipping between the SAGs and JLU and now MI-5. I agree with everything you wrote, sumi!
Sharing grief isn't bad. Forcing it upon people who don't care for years and years after the event itself is going a bit to far for me.
The ne plus ultra of these was a car wreck in College Park, Maryland in which a couple of high school kids were killed (driving drunk). A week or two later, graffiti showed up on the white-walled underpass near the crash site:
YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN ARE HEARTS
Waist-high letters. Thaat never, ever washed away. I saw them twice daily on my commute. If you're going to be melodramatically mournful, learn how to spell.
Or use non-permanent spray paint.

ION my allergy seems to have suddenly subsided. Not sure how permenantly, as I am still getting the occasional twinge in my nose. Which is good because this morning was retched. I did sleep ok, but my nose ran constantly as soon as I was awake. I couldn't even go work out.
I hope your's is at bay, too, ita.
Happy Birthday all!
Oh good lord. If I wasn't DEAD already I am now!!!
That is the funniest pictures I have ever seen. Talk about blackmail material when she gets older.
Those big, blue eyes are LETHAL.
