"The near enemy of loving kindness is attachment. At first attachment may feel like love but as it grows it becomes more clearly the opposite, characterized by clinging, controlling and fear." - Jack Kornfield

In 2000 - I was cast in an all-male cast of Dan Goggin's NUNSENSE. It got all sorts of press - as we performed the show in an actual church in one of the most conservative places in America: Boise Idaho. When NUNSENSE closed - the director Scott Stewart gave me this AMAZING Sister Amnesia action figure.

I played Sister Amnesia - the nun who has well, amnesia - and remembers in the closing scenes she'd been competing in a Country Western Song Contest and a stage light had fallen and hit 'her' in the head. Scott's partner is a drag performer - and fitted me with the MOST outrageous blue sequin tube dress - which (thanks to velcro) made it's appearance in the finale, "I Could've Gone to Nashville."

and lets just put it this way - blue tube dresses are horrible on women - leave alone the topographical map they make on a man. It's one of my most hysterical stunts on stage and a treasured memory. I took this picture for a "Toys" photo challenge here on Livejournal.
