kW and kWh.Meaning a thousand of James Watt's Watts? And an hour of his little kW's?

That makes no sense to me. (The watch/cell phone thing.) I can just as easily pull out my BlackBerry, which has my calendar on it, and check the time and my schedule in one place.BUT, yes. I always wear a shirt/tie and dress pants/shoes to an interview. Why not? Dressing up is fun! ;)

Right now i'm using Brooklyn by Youngblood Brass Band... Gets me a little more energized in the morning when i come in to work.

That's true. You make a good point with the flags/names.

I'm just really not ok with the ranks and flags. Haha.To each his own, though!

I don't disagree that BDU's are good run clothes but the patches and the nametags (and ranks?!?) took me by surprise.:)

Are those jumpsuits with American flag patches on them?!

Not the best picture (will get one under stage lights once i bother getting them off my camera), but this is how ours turned out!I made a stamp out of sponges mounted on scrap luan that was 8 bricks on one row, 9 on the other, offset. Just distressed the sponges, stamped on the red and then...

If you need quick face tape for your mics, get the basic cloth band aids and cut off the absorbent pad part ;)That's what we do when necessary!

Something like this? (Just a quick drawing in paint, haha.)Just put the platform on castors, can be a 4x6 platform... that should work for you. plop the stairs on top! And then either use flats or just some luan and face the side you need.Or did i miss the point of these stairs entirely?

That sounds like a pretty good option... would certainly help on the sime side of things too.

Well, after speaking to our director/drama booster coordinator today I found out we're already over budget ;)So, it looks like we'll be painting the walls gray speckled with black dots, taping out the bricks, and then sponging on the different colors of brick.Not my first choice, but...

Yeah, that was my only worry. Since it includes the shading of the bricks, etc. it might look a little weird.As far as painting the bricks... Paint the base, tape the grout lines, paint the red then sponge on the additional colors? Does that produce the best look?

Has anyone had success with this seamless paper as a wall covering?Brick Pattern Seamless Paper from Rose BrandOur set is a two story "back wall" for Kiss Me, Kate, and we simply don't have the time to paint the entire set and make it look good enough. Since it's 84" wide i was thinking...

Wow. Talk about a lot of lights ;)
