A most gracious good evening, Iris, I have been missing you. Peace and grace And to Lilly, thank you for taking us with you. My favorite was the “Marissa Walk” in homage or in the theater. I get those two confused. Peace and grace

Why, thank you for that unexpected and kind sentiment, Miss Beth. As the SamuraiDragonfly, I alight here and there. I hunker down though, when the winds of contention get too blustery. Injoy and back at ya

Liza D 08 .... beta
OH, man …. that was fun! First of all they way they call your name ….. wow, what a great feeling that is and was fun and exciting for me to see. Second I was able to see the way you do what you do …. running the lines, feeling the words …. very KEWL. Third the walk was GREAT! What a great walk … elegant, strong and star like. Fourth the intro was also GREAT, the pause after the line “… open a roller disco” was FUNNY! Lily Tomlin funny! And then the excitement at the after parties …. also fun! Thank you for the “goodnight WoW” …. that was for all of us on WoW. I smiled like it was just for me. Brilliant stuff. You look great …. your timing is great …. and the walk was to die for!

that was fun and wonderful; you looked beautiful. I thought the award ceremony was great-couldn’t watch it all, but thanks for the photos, the video. I normally don’t do plays because of cost and other stuff; but i’m impressed; total wow of talent! incredible; my hat is off to all connected with the theatre!!!

Lily, You loooked great and sounded even better on the Tony’s. I hope you understand that I am a cat, but I do watch TV when the opportunity arises. You are one of my favorites! Love, Buffy

Hi Buffy, My very smart Siamese is sitting next to me staring at the screen, and says meeoow.

and a gracious meeoow to your Siamese. I thought the “richest pet” blurb was quite interesting. “They” say I am pretty rich because I am 21 years old and that is quite a feat for a cat. Last year I had a party for my 20th and a couple of dozen people attended, including my vet. We served tuna with mayo - hold the bread. Buffy
