The lady at the marriage license place was hilarious. 
I think she thought she had to whisper when she said "gay".

My little brother - who is NOT taller than me thank you very much - sat down next to me last night at a birthday dinner, and asked me if I would replace a cast member in a play he is doing.

I contemplated telling him all the reason's why I really can't:  that I am a professional  and I really have to accept paying jobs, blah blah blah.
