Must be a kick for her to have gained fame as Annie and then be able to sink her teeth into the juicy role of Miss Hannigan.

SHARRON ANGLE VS HARRY REID SENATE RACE IS UGLY - Broadway To Vegas column - October 31, 2010

http://www.broadwaytovegas.com/October31,2010.html

When a Las Vegas reporter asked Sharron Angle how she stood on various issues, she answered she'd state her platform AFTER she got elected and then barred the station from her campaign office. I'm very new here, but it looks like if she wins, Nevada is in trouble. I thought reporters were suppose to ask important questions.

Sharon made that blogger back down, but the damage has been done. Why did "Marie Claire" hire that woman as their blogger and doesn't she have an editor who might have had better common sense?

World famous show, different each season. Perfect for all ages. You leave the performance with a new respect for the "seniors." Makes you want to go home and start to exercise, watch your diet and glam up.

I know you refused to cover one of our clients because we hired Pete Mikla to be our liaison in Las Vegas. I wish now that we had taken the time to ask you the reasons. Please accept my apology. I ask that you post this as a public apology, but request that you keep it anonymous, only because the season has just started as we are swamped, and don't have time to deal with any phone calls from the nosey and curious.
Again, so sorry.

KISS THE PAST HELLO: LIVES OF AMERICAN TEEN-AGERS: PHOTO EXHIBIT OF LARRY CLARK - Broadway To Vegas column - October 10, 2010

http://www.broadwaytovegas.com/October10,2010.html

Good God!!! As a photographer he is an expert and genius. That doesn't mean a child should see the pictures and then ask age inappropriate question or want to hook up with their boy/girl friend and try some of the positions. That's not censorship, that's good parenting. If it "takes a Village to raise a family " then it is totally proper that the jurdiction steps in and says Adults Only.

We didn't see the Queen in person, so I guess we can't say we went to London to visit the Queen. But, we saw this WONDERFUL The Queen's Year exhibit right before it closed on October 1st and wanted to report that the trip would have been worth the time and money just for this, but saw London shows and had a wonderful time. Best vacation ever. Everyone should visit London!

We haven't come very far since "The Laramie Project." Tyler Clementi's death needs to fall under a hate crime category so more serious charges can be filed. Of course nobody should be bullied - doesn't matter the sexual orientation, religion or race.
