Kirstie calls anything she can put away in two bites or less “my sweet baby”. *tap…tap…is this thing on?*
I always thought Roger Rees was just the British guy on “Cheers”, but after exhaustive research (okay, I Google-d), he’s a legitimate actor. And I missed it.
Hey, Podunkboy –
I’m sorry for you that you missed the show. It was wonderful. I was so impressed. I’d like to see it again because I can never quite keep up with British accents, so I know I missed some things.
By the way, he’s in Kansas City tonight if you want to see him. I think he’s returning on Sunday possibly, too, after a St. Louis show.
