You're voiceless too Nick?
Everyone was making fun of me at work yesterday because I couldn't talk. I'm so hoping I'm better by Tuesday.

So, splinter cell it is. ;D

Ooh, do you think we need a mascot? We could get a fear demon-sized gentlemen! How cute would that be.

Is it too late for me to join in on the making fun of you, too? I only just heard that you're speechless.

* Do not use your voice for several days. Either speak very softly or write notes until you can talk normally. * Use a cool-mist humidifier (vaporizer) to increase air moisture and help relieve the tight feeling in your throat. Hot, steamy showers can also help. * Do not drink alcohol or smoke until your voice is back to normal. * Get plenty of rest. * Drink extra fluids, such as water, fruit juice, and tea. Call Your Doctor If... * You develop a high temperature. * Hoarseness lasts longer than 7 days. * You have bleeding from the throat. * Your throat feels worse. * You have large, tender lumps in your neck. Seek Care Immediately If... * You have difficulty breathing. * You have trouble swallowing and begin to drool. Feel better soon,darlins'!!! (Stocks pantry with various teas,tisanes, and vitamins,puts on a kettle of soup, sets out gum,lozenges,soothing pastilles and hard candy and loads the bowls on the tables with fresh fruit. Don't forget the elixir of terpenhydrate,viscous xylocaine or honey!)

I'M GILES!
I have to do a play for my Theatre Studies class and we are doing The Crucible. I auditioned for Giles. I got it. Now I'm Giles! Now I just have to try to resist wearing tweed and speaking like an Englishmen.

Congratulations!!! Giles is the linchpin of the play. Tough,old,shrewd,stubborn, Corey is nonplussed when the familiar meanspiritedness of his community turns into malignant paranoia. He can't understand and can't give in to these ever-escalating attacks on reason. It is his plight that shows Proctor just what his 'victimless crime' has wrought. Even more than the accusations against Elizabeth,the fallout that overwhelms the ordinary,upright Giles and his homely, tabby cat of a wife,Martha makes Proctor see villiany in his casual philandering with a disturbed,young girl and even more,in the inefficacy of his attempts to confess and take responsibility for his actions. Whatever the rest of the town might have contributed to the literal witch hunt, its greed,hate and fear would have required other growing media had Proctor and Abigail not provided the perfect culture in their soured affair. Were Giles a paper saint or nonentity,neither the leading man nor the audience would feel much terror or repugnance for what occurs. As Giles is neither a superman nor a stock character,he is the very emblem of the innocent,undeserving victim that even the strongest,most decent Everyman can become. He is why Proctor must care about what his actions have triggered. He is why we care,too. They couldn't have picked a better guy to take this tale of the secular side of demonic posession and do it justice.
