I actually played Officer Krupke in a community-theatre production of West Side Story when I was about 13.  (It kept to my strengths-- a mostly-comedic role in an otherwise-serious musical, but with little singing required.  See also:  The Rabbi, in Fiddler on the Roof.)

 

 

Anyhow, R.I.P. Ornette

 

Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

now that takes us back...

 

did a couple musicals in high school.  .

 

george banks from mary poppins and jud fry in oklahoma.  

 

...

 

am suspecting we only got our roles 'cause there were such a shortage o' folks that could be depended on to learn lines. guess we played to our strengths too.
 
truth to tell, jud fry part didn't require much acting from us.
 
 
george banks were... fun.
 

 

HA! Good Fun!
