Hello!
Happy Valentine's to everyone! I hope you're all enjoying your
weekend. I'd like to apologize if this newsletter comes out
oddly. AOL's been giving me trouble with sending stuff so if you
get this twice, get half of it but with the rest cut off, or some such
thing, please just email and I'll resend it to you personally.
Also, if you're receiving this newsletter and don't know why, please
see the note at the very bottom of this email. Now onto the
newsletter... enjoy! Oh wait! I also wanted to let everyone
know that www.tvshowsondvd.com has announced that
Season One of "Tour of Duty" will be available in June. As many
of you probably know, John Dye appeared in that show. But his Doc
Hock didn't surface until Season Three. Anyway,
here's hoping that this means all three seasons will be released so
some of us can finally see these episodes! Okay, now the
newsletter for real...
Valentines to John Dye Characters
Dearest Andrew,
"And they called it puppy love..." LOL Happy Valentine's
Day from your sappy, overly dramatic, overly enthusiastic, crazy
admirer! I hope your day is filled with... well, whatever angels
want on Valentine's Day. And y'know if you wanna like bake
cookies or go pick flowers or... I need to shut up now.
With love,
Lady JenniAnn
Dear Francis (aka Doc Hock)
I know its not the 70's any more but I think there is such a thing as
free love still, in theory. Anyway want to prove that you are the best
that ever came out of Memphis?
Love Karen
Hey Todd,
"I love, I love, I love my calendar..." boy! Hey Todd just wanted
to wish you a happy Valentine's! I hope you have much success
with your latest business venture. Please try to avoid selling
out your friends though this time. Oh and stay away from
Katherine. She's creepy. She doesn't age at all! And
if she tries to auction you off for $600... RUN!
Peace,
JenniAnn
PS One last thing... Yellow Converses Forever!!!
Dear Jeff,
Happy Valentine's Day! Today your chocolate blackout cake is covered in
rainbow coloured hearts. And yes, I made it from scratch!
Your Friend,
Karen
Why JABB Gave
Up on Shakespeare
Okay, as some of you who have been with us a while may remember, we
once tried our hand at parodying Shakespeare! It was fun and with
it being Valentine's we considered doing that again since Shakespeare
can be so *romantic*. Nice idea but... didn't quite work.
Here's why:
~ In
Dyeland we tried to stage "Romeo and Juliet." Andrew
wanted to be in it and was promptly cast as Friar Laurence since it was
deemed too creepy to have him play Romeo. Unfortunately...
during the wedding scene Juliet neglected to kiss her groom and instead
tried to smack one on the friar! And then later the entire cast
and crew, save Andrew, got the giggles at the lines "That
unsubstantial death is amorous, And that the lean abhorred monster
keeps, Thee here in dark to be his paramour?" Andrew turned beat
red.
~ We then tried a reading of "Venus and Adonis." Not only was it deemed too steamy but then Venus went into an anti-Death rant! It was not to be tolerated...
~ We
then decided to try one of the tragedies having
discovered the romances were highly problematic. This time
"MacBeth" was ruined when Andrew asked for a small part and was cast as
Duncan. All went well until "Duncan" was killed prompting a crowd
of Androolers to storm the stage and start beating up "MacBeth."
~ We then
decided to try our hand at "Henry V" casting Andrew as
Henry since he all ready knows the "St. Crispin's Day"
speech. But a fight ensued over who got to be Kate, his
fiancee. Plus, in a place with a 90% female population it just
wasn't practical to do a play with a 95% male cast of characters.
~ So then we decided to put on a production of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" but were later informed that was not, in fact, a Shakespearean play. Or really a play at all... Oops!
