Open thread

Still in NYC, had a really interesting weekend. Went to see The Ritz, a revival of an old comedy set in a gay bathhouse in NYC. It was cute (I'm a tough sell on comedies), with lots of eye candy and some excellent acting. Starred Kevin Chamberlin (who was great) and Rosie Perez, and included an outstanding performance by Patrick Kerr (who previously played Noel, the geeky dark-haired officemate in love with Roz on "Frasier"). I got to meet Rosie Perez after the show, and then go to dinner with Chamblerlin and Kerr and some mutual friends. Just the nicest guys. Kerr in particular was just fascinating, I got to speak with him for a long while over dinner. It's so interesting to talk to people who don't do politics for a living.
