Forgot to add, being in a petty bureaucratic position myself, I found most things stand the test of time. Nothing ever really changes.

It was interesting, watching the breaking down of an individual onstage from that time period paralleling what I see in real life today. I've watched people break down and committed them to psychiatric intervention (we draw a lot of unstable individuals to our jurisdiction, guess cause we are so customer friendly). It amazes me how the process has stayed pretty much the same.

Thanks for this little review, Jennifer !
He he ! Next time you'll meet him, try to begin the conversation about human nature ! ;)

So, like that, you went into the limo ?!?!...
And WHO exactly let you get inside ?!... Geoffrey or the driver ?!... That was very kind !

I hope you feel better and your bad cold is cured !

With someone as sharp as he, I doubt I will be the one to start the conversation. I know when I am woefully out my depth. I do have a question I would like to ask him though, about his home turf fight with the land developers. That would be about the extent of my starting the topic.

Now if I were to see him on my own ground, in a work situation, it would be a different story. And I would do everything in my power to make him comfortable in my territory.

We went out to the stage door, it was freaking cold. Two other fans (or autograph seekers) were out there ( ... )

TV trivia geek that I am, especially about shows from the 1960s, I can't believe I didn't know the answer to his question either. But I was impressed that he's an even bigger TV geek! (So cool to think that we grew up watching the same shows half a world apart.)

PS: On the other hand, I was relieved he didn't ask my opinion of the play as I hadn't quite digested it yet! My head was still spinning. (Still is a little too!)

I watched somewhat, too. Once I got into reading (pretty early in my life), that seemed to take more than T.V. Didn't mean to sound elitist or anything, I come from a very blue-collar background. My parents and siblings read a lot, too.

It's nice to read about your experience with Geoffrey.

At least you got to speak to him this time. Which was maybe better because I think maybe he feels more comfortable around less people.

I guess that was why I was disappointed because I always heard he is chatty but he didn't really say or ask anything when I was able to speak to him. So I felt sad. And he seemed maybe not as relaxed and hurried. I just didn't expect it. I think less people are less overwhelming to him. Just a theory.

But I'm glad you and Susan had your chance and it went well!

1lonelymulga March 13 2011, 05:51:16 UTC

Hi Suzanne, how are you ( ... )

scarlett_0 March 15 2011, 15:38:24 UTC

I don't really look at it as a disappointment anymore. I think it was just had a gut reaction.

I know what you mean when you say "fake the autograph" thing. It doesn't mean that much to me either but I guess that's better than saying "Hey Geoffrey, I wanna talk," lol. It's nice just to have his attention for a moment.
