I thought about starting that post with "well, other than that how was the play Mrs. L?"

But well, Abe's getting a bit marbelized right now what with a movie coming out and all next year.

So I decided to be tasteful.

No, nothing like the ides of April. Just don't trust actors. Especially those of the stage.
