Oh, it's really not a dress up kind of place. But I do love it so. I'll take you all there for real if we follow through and gather in mpls this summer. And to TJ- Not too bad today. A little sleepy and unfocused. But no real overwhelming stress or pressure on any particular issue hanging over my head, which makes a pleasant change.

I do it for the joy it brings because i'm a joy...ful girl because the world owes me nothing and we owe each other the world
I do it because it's the least I can do I do it because i learned it from you I do it just because i want to
because I want to
everything I do is judged and they mostly get it wrong but oh well 'cuz the bathroom mirror has not budged and the woman who lives there can tell the truth from the stuff that they say she looks me in the eye and says would you prefer the easy way? no? well o.k. then don't cry
and I wonder if everything I do I do instead of something I want to do more the question fills my head I know that there's no grand plan here this is just the way it goes and when everything else seems unclear I guess at least I know
I do it for the joy it brings because i'm a joy...ful girl because the world owes me nothing and we owe each other the world
I do it because it's the least I can do I do it because i learned it from you I do it just because i want to
because I want to

Bravo,Py!!!
tj,enjoy Noises Off.
I think I'll be seeing Who's Under Where tonight.
Some very brave men will be wearing size 24 silk teddies.
Funny,I never before realized you needed massive amounts of chest and back hair to carry off that little number.

I was going to exalt Py, but it seems almost a shame ...

You know I can't resist the siren call of Charlene!
the room goes black.
A spotlight comes on with a hearty clunk - purple filtered -
to reveal -
Py-
In a stunning backless Dior number with court heels and an enormous oriental fan...
Hey lady you lady,
cursing at your life
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do But, I wish someone had talked to me
Like I poignant pause wanna talk to you.....
Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run I took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
Please lady, please... lady,
don't just walk away
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million lies....
Oh, I've been to Niece and the Isle of Greece while I've sipped champagne on a yacht I've moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and beat showed 'em what I've got I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'posed to see I've been to paradise,
but I've never been to me
Py takes the Mic off the stand and walks into the audience, affectionately taking hands and speaking earnestlty
Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie, a fantasy we create about people and places as we'd like them to be
But you know what truth is? It's that little baby you're holding! it's that man you fought with this morning! The same one you're going to make love with tonight! That's truth, that's love......
Py walks RIGHT past J. August Richards, who's looking as if he expected to be handed the microphone to sing....
But Py is back on stage, sitting in an enormous feathered swing shaped like a swan. The crane goes into gear and the swan/swing rises majestically over the room as Py begins to sing...
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete But I took the sweet life, I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet I've spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that costs too much to be free Hey lady...... I've been to paradise, (I've been to paradise) But I've never been to me
(GRAIL and SGG: I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run) I've been to paradise, never been to me
(TJAMAN and AUNTIE: I've been to Neice and the isle of Greece while I've sipped champagne on a yacht) I've been to paradise, never been to me
(KCP and Tealbox, singin' straight out of 2004: I've been to cryin' for unborn children that might have made me complete)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(DEZ, BRINGIN' IT ON HOME!: I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
the lights go down. suddenly everyone's back to normal, looking awkwardly at each other....

You gotta post a pic of the Poodle Club or its logo or sumpn'. It sounds delicious. It also reminds me of a bit of camp couture that's coming back hereabouts. Remember poodle skirts? About 25 years ago,we had a revival of the concept with A line and wraparound skirts wearing various appliques. Most were devoted to one's special interests or holiday symbols such as pumpkins,snowflakes,bottle rockets,etc. My mom had a khaki skirt with a white rail fence around the hem and a black horse with a braided mane doing a flatwalk between the fence and the tree,barn,etc. Another person might have a selection of seashells and starfish or musical notes or the comedy and tragedy masks. I kind of liked the idea of wearing the manna symbols for Magic: the Gathering or having a rather twee dragon where the poodle usually resides. The 'Tomettes could wear skirts with knife-wielding gibbons,angry cupcakes and similar motifs with the lads wearing analogous vests. (Jackets,jeans,tote bags or gimme hats would do. ) Just a bit of kitsch-stitchery that's been revived (along with decoupage and basket purses) in this neck of the woods.
