Notable Quotables

After Christmas in Delaware, I took NJ Transit home. Seven musical-theater people boarded the train in Princeton. All the world’s their stage, and here’s what was on their minds:

“He compared me to the bitch in The Little Mermaid. You know when Ursala gets hot? Well, i think she’s still ugly, and I was like ‘No you didn’t!’”

“What year are you winning your Tony? 2013?”

“They made me watch two girls and a cup. I kept saying ‘It’s just ice cream!’” (someone else: Is that a Youtube thing?)

“I’m so jealous of my friend who’s on tour with Cinderella in Asia. I love Asia!”

“i cry my way through every Holocaust museum i go to.”

“Where in Baltimore are you staying? Is it downtown by all the shops? Some of it is sketchy”

Charles Barkley Interview

Barkley: I love [politics]. Like, I’m really disturbed about the gay marriage thing. Because I think gay people should get married, cause it’s their own business. I was disturbed at the amount of black people who voted for that [amendment that would limit their rights]. Because as a black man, I think you’ve got to be against any form of discrimination. I do. I’m against any form of discrimination, and I think especially as a black person, who has seen a lot of racial [stuff] in my day, for us to jump on the bandwagon in some form of discrimination, it bothers me.

A Description of G.I. Joe: Special Missions #8, from a letter published in #10:

“It had action – Beach Head was firing an uzi while Leatherneck and Lift-Ticket were trying to grab and pull Low-Light onto an airborne Tomahawk! Pretty trippy! My favorite part of the issue was when the C.I.A. spook thought he had Low-Light after he said he hadn’t shot Portland, but Low-Light then reveals that he knocked him out and took the computer chips containing the virus. That C.I.A. boy got burned!”
