Numero Cinco ,'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Don't forget the 10-foot rule. Sets and costumes live & die by the 10-foot rule.
Yes indeedy do.
Speaking on behalf of Texas, I know not of the rally girl vs cheerleader's rivalry, but definitely the coveting of the Juliana is verifiable.
Daisy Jane, condolences on your loss. May the pain pass quickly as a summer storm, leaving only loving memories in its place.
"Ask him to come back. He'd do it for you."
I was doing pretty good up until I read this line, then I lost it. He sounds like a wonderful and generous man and the world will be poorer without his presence. I'm glad you had so much time with him and I'm sorry for your loss, Daisy.
My mother is the sewer in the family.
I read this wrong. That's all I'll say about that.
Ahem.
Dude. Find me a ticket for around $134 RT and I'm all over it!
{{{{Daisy}}}} Your grandpa sounds like an awesome man. Thank you for telling us about him.
I read this wrong. That's all I'll say about that.
No, that would have been my dad.
It appears to be the Texas version of a pom squad/dance team.
Rally girls- at least from what I remember were more like boosters. They don't perform at all, they are just there to bring goodies to the players, be their player's #1 fan basically.
DJ, I am so sorry for the loss of such a wonderful man.
sniffles
Sorry to go on and on, but I put a great man in the ground Wednesday, and wanted to tell y'all about it.
Hush. We want to hear about him. He sounds like a man we could use more of in the world.
Again, I'm so sorry.

Huh. You can tell I'm not from Texas either. The gall of different areas of the country having different names for the same thing....
(In my defense, in central PA, most dance teams are known as rally teams. Drill teams were affiliated with the band.)
Gah - Southwest is $236 (but hey, no car rental or hotel)
eta - oh bless, that is each way too. Ok, forget it. sniff.
Think S would have time on Sunday to fit me into my dress? I'll bring all the stuff like sewing machine.
She has two sewing machines. Please, for the love of all things holy, don't bring another sewing machine over. Just bring a bunch of straight pins. She can probably help with the hem, too.
(Also - I'm kinda embarassed to let her see it. It looks great in pictures, but it looks very amatuer in person. Like, the back is all screwy. Screwy enough that I'm thinking of making a cape/train thing in the gold to cover up the back.)
Please do not worry about this. Also, she's already seen the pictures. She says you've done very well, especially for your first dress, but you should have stuck with you original plan and gotten her involved sooner (though she confesses that she might not have caught you making the improper cut until it was too late, either).

Aimee, my dear, while I'm not a professional, I've worked on costume crews. You've just described the whole secret of successful costuming.
That, and the judicious use of hot glue for emergency seam repair.
Yes. This is, in fact, true. Also the ten foot rule thing.
