I told you I was powerful. Check this out. And this too. And let me help out that last reporter a little bit: I'm not just with the Downtown Merchants Association... I'm the frickin' Chairman of the DMA. That's right: Chairman Baker. (Maybe that would make a good stage name... nah... a little too Mao-esque for me...)

Quake, little ones. Quake.

But my recent exploits can't even hold a candle to Forky's. Oh, baby. I laughed for a half hour as he told me about the day he had today. Check it out here. And coincidentally, while doing research based on the lady in his story who made the comment about sage, I came across this website. It's my new fav. I'm still laughing at this product description:

NEW! Our fresh batch of desert sage mixed with juniper is harvested from the sacred vortex of Mt. Shasta, California. Juniper and sage are both known for their cleansing properties and will aid in banishing negative energy from your environment.

I implore you all, Cachinnatees, please buy Forky a sage wand from the sacred vortex of Mt. Shasta. It's magickal. That's right: with a 'k.' It's from a magickal land. No... not Narnia. It's from California. (Or is it Kalifornia...?)

Whew... that was fun. Other than that I've just been pretending to clean cleaning the house while Beeki was visiting her grandmother. (No, not that grandmother, the other one.) I've also been finalizing the details on my new website for the theatre. Check it out, it's sweet. I'll be populating the blog there this week and adding more information about upcoming shows. But you can get tickets now for our production of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged). If you can make it, do so.

Word to your collective mothers.
