...level. No one's ever brought out the love between these guys or the violence that we put in it or the humor. But we got shortchanged in the schedule, man. It's a great lesson for me that I'll never do a Broadway show unless we test it out of town and have at least four weeks of previewing. I only had 10 days to preview and I kinda felt it was short.

The entire nation will have to make sacrifices for us to really combat carbon emissions, but it can start at Harvard...

...distance them from a front-page scandal. And indeed, there are enough connections between the worlds of Blagojevich and Obama that the whole thing has the potential to grow beyond a colorful Chicago tale of corruption to entangle members of the presidential transition team, test Obama's carefully cultivated reformist image and distract the President-elect just as he is preparing to take office...
