if a cop shot my pets, they'd have to shoot me, i wouldn't stop screaming until they did. (they probably would have already, thinking I was crazy as I attempted to throw myself in front of the gun)

I'm so insanely furious about this. And the article kinda made it seem like it wasn't ok to shoot their dogs *if they were innocent*

no - it was absolutely not ok, at all, even if they were guilty, even if it were something worse than "just pot" - even if they actually had a "no knock" warrant, etc. If they had reason to fear for their lives from the dogs, that's one thing. Shooting a person's dogs as SOP, just to punish or torture them is NOT ok. Fucking bastards. Fucking fucking bastards.

Damnit, now I'm going to have Les Mis stuck in my head all day. I have to go onstage tonight and battle the desire to start climbing the set and singing about the French Revolution!

Funny video, but I was kind of saddened to see Javert reduced to a generic badguy. McCain's far too old to play him well. :P

i thought palin as thenardier was one of the funniest bits :)

Agreed.

I still can't listen to the musical without hearing you in my head, singing/playing it for me all those years ago, describing each detail of the set and explaining the plot as you went along.

Aw, what a lovely memory. That's very sweet, and how nice of you to share it with me. I had forgotten doing that.

A few years ago I celebrated my birthday by inviting over 15 friends and doing a 15th Anniversary Les Miz party. We dressed up in costumes and performed the entire show together (though we didn't have a turntable, alas). This time I got to play Javert, and perhaps you remember Mark, who played Valjean, and Tim and Allison, who played the Thenardiers? I believe Jerry came as well, though he couldn't stay past the prologue.

We also built a barricake. It was great fun.
