Another Churchill repartee: A woman said to Churchill during a debate "You're drunk!", to which Churchill replied, proving her point, "You're ugly", then added "but in the morning I'll be sober."
Since you've graced me with male strength, I'll take the Churchill role in our exchanges. :))
As for Lumenon's opening night, I suspect the curtain will have MOLEX written across it in giant letters, the programs will say "brought to you by Molex," the box-office will be staffed by Molexers, and the theater critic's bonus provided by Molex.
In addition, hawkers will pace the sidewalks before the curtain rises, handing out free tickets, barking the play's claims: "Sensational!" "Talent like you've never seen before!" "Best play in history!" "Better than Shakespeare!!" "Better than Shaw!" "Better than Coward, Simon, and Mamet!" "Better than anything ever written or ever likely to be written. . ."
And stragglers will shake their heads and wander away, mumbling to one another, "If they'd only said it was funny, or creative, or with a new twist showing promise, I might have believed them. . ."
Okay, back to the market.
