So in just over 2 weeks, the 2009 Tony Awards will be handed out.  And once again, I'm going to voice my two cents on who will win.  Unlike last year, I haven't seen *any* of the nomined shows (unless you count the British productions of "Billy Elliot" and "Mary Stuart," which did import a couple of their leads), but I'm making predictions anyway ( Read more... )

Y'all, I just LOVE the Charlie Brown Christmas special.  I don't know exactly what it is about that show, but every time I watch it I am instantly in a good mood.  Also, given the general lack of snow, ice, and even cold weather in Georgia, it's one of the few things that really makes me feel like its the holiday season.  In fact, I missed it last ( Read more... )
