Now, guys and gals, if this sounds like something that makes your nipples perky, just let me know in the comments if you want a copy.

As for tonight's show at Theatresports, I think we've got TEN, count 'em TEN NEW rookies... And I think 8 of them have links to the P-Jam.

Not that I need to feel validated, but that's a good feeling. It's a bad feeling, also, to know that an almost equal number of P-Jammers are not "rookie-ing it up" this week. In a perfect communist society, all who want to would do RFT Theatresports. We'd jam the stage like sardines, barely able to breathe, but we'd all be smiling.

Or suffocating. Or scared out of our minds. Or feeling a little out of place...

It has come to my attention that feedback is extremely necessary. I need to make some real paper reports for some of you, just like RFT does for the players occasionally. It's not fair that I expect people to come leaps and bounds in only a few weeks when some people don't even know what to work on.

I think we can treat the next few months like Summer Band Camp. No, not that Summer Band Camp, the type where we really focus in on what it's all about, and helping each other.

Like making each other look good. I'll explain at band camp.

So the next prospect Jam is on easter Sunday. And I hate to say it but some people might not come just because they are dissapointed that they did not get in. Now I hope that is not true but there is a likey hood that this might happen.
So I was thinking. Easter Sunday is also called Resurection Sunday and if you have an abstract mind that is symbolic. Its Like people who thought they would get in and didnt get but still decided to continue will have there improv skills reserected.
So what I just said does not make to much sense but I guesse that is just how spradic and random my mind is.

Actually, that's a nice thought, but we're not having a jam on easter sunday. We'll have one this week, though (april 9). Perhaps the symbolism will occur then...
