Haven't time to check your LJ replies guys, I'm sorry, I've got limited time on this Y!Mail-sponsored terminal in Times Square. (My parents are buying Broadway tickets and I waffled between The 25th Annual blah-blah Spelling Bee and Rent, which currently stars Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal, but after serious consideration, I'm going for the spelling bee. :| Too sick of Rent, apparently, flog me now for blasphemy. :\)

ANYWAY, I just wanted to update because on my first day in the US of A, I heard the news about the bridge collapsing in Minneapolis, and I need someone to help validate me here, because it CREEPED ME OUT that in The Other Minister chapter of Half-Blood Prince, the ministers were talking about a mysterious and sudden bridge collapse that's apparently the work of Death Eaters so I was all "!!!!" when I heard. :|

Okay maybe that was improper.

On the Internet

Nothing comes up when I google Trojan Horse Generic2.JGX or Trojan Horse BackDoor.Generic3.WCY and I kind of need to know what they are because I had them. :| Would anyone know where I can look? :\

On Civil Rights Issues

In the meantime, here's an interesting topic of discussion. In a nutshell, it's this: Britain's implementing anti-gay discrimination laws, but is considering allowing Catholics to opt out of it because it would be against their beliefs in marriage and family if they were to let gay couples adopt children from their adoption agencies. (And if Britain says they have to follow the laws anyway, the agencies are more likely to shut down because, a cardinal says, they might lose funding.)

Does the religion retain their right to their beliefs if the state has said otherwise? And why? (Consider religious freedom vis a vis civil liberties gay rights. After all, isn't religious freedom in itself a civil liberty?)

On Musicals

  • [livejournal.com profile] miss_charmed gave me a copy of the Wicked stage production with Idina Menzel, Kristen Chenoweth, and Randy Harrison as Boq. :P

  • Avenue Q is going to be staged here. :D Auditions are going to be on Feb 20 and, due to my prodding, a friend from high school is going to try out for Gary Coleman. (I swear she's perfect for the role.)

  • They are also adapting High School Musical to the stage. :| And I know someone who's in the cast ensemble. It's on February 23-25 and I've already made plans to watch it with friends. The HSM craze is still somewhat strong, it appears. :|
