I'll lay money my favorite Sondheim is one everyone else dislikes.
Passion? I love them all, by the way.
Oh, look at the pretties!

I do not read to search for truth // I know the truth // the truth is hardly what I need

Not true! I am a big proponent of making the distinction between nice and polite -- they are not the same thing at all.Not true! I am a big proponent of making the distinction between nice and polite -- they are not the same thing at all.
No, they aren't. I want people to be polite, and to try to be kind. Nice has nothing to do with it. SH, you've known me for ages - I'm frequently Not Nice. But I do try to be polite.

I believe in being polite, courteous and kind. While wishing people dead in my head for not being the same.
My new favorite Sondheim is Assasins. My previous was A Little Night Music.

Ann, that's a ferret.
A "Yay Christianity!" T-shirt isn't necessarily impolite. A "Boo Islam!" T-shirt pretty much is impolite by definition.

The author of the I Hate to Cook Book wrote an etiquette guide called I Try To Behave Myself. I don't know if it was useful or insightful or anything, but it's a great title.

When I was in high school, the local playhouse did A Little Night Music--not a bad version of it, surprisingly enough.
I've got the Carnegie Hall Tribute to Sondheim CD. It has a terrific rendition of "A Weekend in the Country" as the penultimate song (the final is "Sunday" from Sunday in the Park with George, which always brings tears to my eyes for some reason).

Peg Bracken! I have a copy of that book. Calling it an "etiquette guide" makes it sound more formal than it is. But it's amusing, and worth a read to amke sure those things you think of as harmless quirks don't drive other people crazy.
