Ever been hypnotized by a marsupial?

[LadySiren]

It can be a tough life or a fun life, its luck of the draw and timing.

True 'nuff. I'd love to have tried it for at least a little while, but now that I have kids? No way. Also, I have a bad tendon in my right ankle from tripping over a loose ribbon from one of my pointes. I don't know that it would've stood up to a year- or even months-long tour.

Lady Siren, You are correct! I'm talking about Ohlone College (aka University of Southern Fremont ;) )
Do you remember a instructor named Mark? He's the one that told my tech class the story of the bat-signal. He's still teaching at the college. And if you haven't been to the campus in a while, the old Studio 22 was replaced with a performing arts complex (two theaters, radio & tv stations and dance studio.)

Main Streeter - It is Mission San Jose. The main building that everyone looks at is actually a reproduction but it is beautiful inside.

If either if you two find your way to Fremont, let me know and I will gladly buy you lunch for the opportunity to meet you.

Of course I remember Mark! LOL, he used to give me hell about not being able to use power tools correctly. He's a riot - after we struck the set for one of our Summerfest productions (Sound of Music, I think), he took a can of spray paint and gathered us around. He then took the model of the set, got a lighter, and we torched the hell out of it with the spray paint can. Mark was always a demanding, but awesomely funny guy. Very talented, too.

Speaking of Sound of Music, as I mentioned, we borrowed the habits from the nuns next door (how bizarre does that sound?) for the show. Once you put on a nun's habit, EVERYONE treats you differently. Nobody wants to cuss in front of you, LOL. One of our "nuns" was a tarot card reader. You haven't seen surreal until you've seen a nun sitting there doing tarot readings. :p:

I was just in San Jose in May; I sometimes get out that way for client visits. Year before last, I actually made it up to Santa Cruz to go visit Cabrillo College, where my late father worked. Next time I head that way, I'll PM you.

Ohlone College! Yes, forgot abt Ohlone. Ca. N A Tribal name.Oh yes, I well know dear old Mission San Jose de Guadalupe is a replica. Still beautiful & well done replica of the 1797 Mission. Our family was @ the mission in 1797, so know most of the history. I do go up to San Jose whenever I can. 14th & East St. James St. & Santa Clara Cemetary. Thanks for the lunch offer techie :) but I have lunch in Los Gatos or @ Stanford.

Okay, you guys have made "it's a small world" start running through my head. Thanks. :p:

Would you prefer "It's A Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow" instead? :D:

Mainstreeter, you sound entirely too yuppie to be hanging out with riff-raff like me (I am a huge fan though, of the Stanford Theater). ;)

OMG... *Sees videos in the sidebar to that one.* Does the Carousel of Progress really take over 20 minutes? It never felt that long.

Does anyone know if there's a full length song in the style of the unload area version of that music?

Do you take Embarcadero from 101 to Stanford? You'll go by my old house if you do go that way.

LOL Why? Not much yuppie in a Cal M A grad now days. I love riff - raff. Adds fun twists to friendships. ;)

You mean The Bay Shore? Embarcadero confuses me. I just drive using landmarks. If I've been someplace once I can always find it again....except up Mt. Tam in Mill Valley.
