Ernie the Tipsy Dragon PART 1



Here he is ladies and gentlemen...the most low budget monster any production of Mozart's The Magic Flute has ever scene. We have many names for this monster...some include Chi-a Pet mixed with Yoda...or Bed Sheet monster who eats chips. The director calls him Ernie...who knows why. All cast members are extremely embarrassed of Ernie...especially next to our sets rented from the Utah Festival opera. However we also put in a lot of hours sewing on those beautiful tortilla chip like scales, so we love him anyway. Who, you maybe asking, would be gutsy enough to be underneath that diseased ridden bed sheet? Well look for sparkly pink Converse and you will know who it is...

P.S. I put part one because I feel like Ernie's journey to becoming a dragon may continue.

Party Like it's 1992

So this week on Idol they are singing songs from the year that they were born...I thought it would be interesting to check out the songs from my birth year, 1992:

IF YOU ASK ME TO~Celine Dion
Walking on Broken Glass~Annie Lennox
Achy Breaky Heart~Billy Ray Cyrus
Black or White~ Michael Jackson
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU~Whitney Houston
Life is a Highway~Tom Cochrane
Smells Like Teen Spirit~ Nirvana
Smells like Nirvana~ Weird Al
If I had a Million Dollars~ Barenaked Ladies

In my research these were by far the best, all are favorites...Except for Smells Like Teen Spirit, I just thought that was funny title and that Weird Al did a spoof on it.
