Help I am Lost in Ikea....


Help, it is true. My brother "Carlos" is lost in the Ikea. There have been several sightings but so far no vision of him at the checkout center. For those of you who were around last summer you will remember "Carlos" he worked crew and in the shop, while delighting us with his projector for "movie night." However on a innocent trip to Ikea I seem to have lost him. The day started out normally...entering the gigantic metropolis of urban, cheap furniture. "Carlos" was in good spirits despite the fact that we were dragging him out shopping.
We wandered into the chair and couch section - this is where it happened. He must have sat down in this or some other comfortable chair and well perhaps decided to take a little catnap. Without realizing it we must have moved on and we haven't seen him since.

Many people have written in with sightings of "Carlos" - a few have even sent in some photos that they have captured. But so far no one has been able to help him get out of the Ikea. One kind woman found this picture on her camera - it seems to show "Carlos" struggling over the map of the enormous facility. I am sure he is searching for the quickest way out - but those short cuts can be tricky. Also I recieved this photo from a family in the Dakotas that captures "Carlos" in despair over dinnerware. I can only assume that after days of wandering around the place for days he has become delusional in his search for food. Thank goodness this family took pity on him and guided him to the food court, where it is reported that he filled up on pasta and Mountain Dew.

As of the time of this post "Carlos" was said to have been spotted in the the warehouse area of the monstrous building. So close to the exit that he can probably feel the breeze on his face and the sound of cars on the freeway racing by. Hopefully soon "Carlos" will be reunited with his family who miss him. And then he can return to life as normal, but I don't think that he will be venturing into any large store anytime soon. (sorry Super WalMart)

If "Carlos" were here I am sure he would say: "Denise you have a dirty whorish mouth."

Embrace Your "CHAPTERS"

Little Shop is Open for Business. Little Shop opened with all the normal hoopla of a Third Season Opener. And the show keeps right on rolling along. (although we desperately wish that MORE people would come and see the show - tell your friends - Randall's sparkling curtain speeches don't seem to be doing the trick). Tim and Kaitlynn, along with the rest of cast simply hang in the "somewhere thats green" room. Sometimes we do fun events like "Shiner Day" All the crew girls, desperately hoping to be like Audrey wore "shiners" It doesn't get much better then this folks - top that "uni-brow day".

The main cause of excitement seems to be whether or not the plant grows properly or if Denise can announce the right Act to start. WASTED! Despite the small size of the cast and its relative innocent outward appearance - The chapters are flying. I mean really with puppet fisting, condoms breaking and whores promoted (not to mention that the local paper quoted "Audrey likes S & M"). Starting it all off was Randall telling a reporter "When I am in Audrey, I am Audrey" - I mean really folks - Kurtis, you dirty whore - these people are giving you a run for your title. Whit would be so proud. For those of you locals - Randall and Denise have put a FABULOUS display of photography from the past two seasons in the Encore Room. You should really check it out - see if you made the wall of fame.

DRUMROLL please!!!! I know that all of you have been waiting for this moment. THE ARIZONI AWARDS! I know it was a truly delicious moment. I mean 27 nominations is alot. We captured 7 of the 13 categories we were nominated for - not too shabby for the first year. Tim was a humble winner in the category of Best Supporting Actor. He was caught on film being so gracious and appreciative at winning the award. It is rumored that Kurtis went into a jealous rage when he found out - ripping faux fur and beads from everything in sight. Sorry Bud Frump there is a new bitch in town - Jacobina!
Also in attendance was Lindsey Clayton sock puppet. She was photographed on the red carpet and everything - picture coming soon. Other winners of the evening were Tralen for direction and choreography of the "magically excessive" La Cage. Which Martha also won for costumes. WGR and Alan for musical direction and EMF for Best Supporting Actress (we won't even mention what Lindsey sock puppet did at this moment it is far to vulgar!!) And in closing a Zoni award winning closing:
