Sally, you come up with some of the greatest sayings...still laughing at "DR. Richard Cranium"....told some of my friends at work...they thought it was great!

Donna -- thanks!! My friends and I have always used the term "Richard Cranium" .... for as far back as I can remember knowing what it meant to call someone a __________ head!!! I dunno....must be a Hoosier-ism!!! Anyway, I am glad you found humor in it!!
It sure is quiet around here tonight!!
I am cracking up over this play that I am in!! It's based on the "Harmony" series of books by Phillip Gulley. Harmony is a small town community of Quakers (present day) and there's a whole series about all the things that go on in the town, and all the people in it. Jim (the guy who wrote the stage version) did a series of plays to go along with the book series....this is the third, I believe, and most of the other characters have all been together for the first two........
In this one, the "Friendly Women's Circle" is trying to come up with a way to raise money.....they decide to come together and create a quilt to be auctioned off at the annual Chicken and Noodles Festival. Once the quilt is finished, Deena (who used to be an attorney, but left the big city to open a coffee house in Harmony -- known as Legal Grounds) accidentally spills some coffee on the quilt! The quilt gets displayed in the Meeting House one Sunday, and as the parishoners are called to worship, one of the characters yells out that she sees the face of Jesus in the quilt!!!! (The coffee stain) Everything runs amuck from there as they try to figure out how to let the world know that the face of Jesus is on their beloved quilt, without turning Harmony into a side show!!!
It really does crack me up!!!
Anyway....that's about all that's going on here. I need to work on Peter Pan for awhile before I turn in, so I will chat with y'all in the morning!
Hugs,
Sal
