Along with all his other reference material, NS has a 17-volume edition of the Catholic Encyclopedia at the ready, IIRC. Not that it's done him any good when it comes to "getting on the boat", needless to say. ; )Jakashnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-14083327748093421122015-12-08T08:52:17.324-06:002015-12-08T08:52:17.324-06:00Jealous of .... your messiah?

A few were naturals, which was a problem because viewers assumed they were actors, but most were, at best, awkward reading lines. Some froze in front of a camera. Doing it on stage in front of an audience is a whole different dimension.<br /><br />It's no doubt a dicey profession. A successful actor told me you never get over the feeling that this gig might be your last. Why people do it is illustrated, beyond Irving Berlin's lyric, by the old joke about a circus worker who gets shit on every day hosing down the elephants. When asked why he doesn't get a better job he says he doesn't want to get out of show business.<br /><br />Tom Evans Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
