Or, “Am I Going to Get Arrested?<\/b>“, by Amanda Ameer. <\/p>\n
Would you believe me if I told you that I received an album request from the company that apparently handles “in-flight entertainment” for…Air Force One<\/b>? They asked for a CD for consideration – I’m not telling you which one. I e mailed back, “Like, the President’s plane?” ((consummate professional)), she’s like, “Yep, that’s the one!”, smiley face. “Um, yeah, I’m sure that’s fine.”<\/p>\n
Now, I don’t think I have to spell out the comedy for you, but I can’t help but wonder:<\/p>\n
1. The President and his people have time for in-flight entertainment?? According to The West Wing<\/i>, everybody’s supposed to be working<\/i> on these plane trips. Aren’t C.J. Cregg and The Press Corps on board??<\/p>\n
2. “Which President?”<\/p>\n
3. What other albums should I sneak into the package “for consideration”? I am overwhelmed with possibilities. If this were a blog on which people participated en masse<\/a> ((sob)), I would encourage suggestions. For the time being, I think I’m going to slip in: Godspell (2008 Off-Broadway Original Cast Recording)<\/a>, Lucky Soul – The Great Unwanted<\/a>, The King’s Singers – Gesualdo, Tenebrae Responsories for Maundy Thursday<\/a>, and Margot & The Nuclear So & So’s – The Dust of Retreat<\/a>. And McCain\/Palin are getting Hair<\/a>\/Spring Awakening<\/a>, respectively, if it comes to that. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Or, “Am I Going to Get Arrested?“, by Amanda Ameer.
