have pondered the correct pronunciation of "Salve" as it pertains to the university. Rhymes with have? I've always figured that it did. I'm sure I would cringe if that's how I pronounced it only to be corrected by someone more in the know.If you're talking about a topical medication, it rhymes with have. If you're talking about a Latin phrase (Salve Regina means "Hail Queen" -- regina is the feminine form of rex), it's pronounced like Sal-VAY. (That would be the Catholic Church's typical pronunciation. A Latin professor would tell you to pronounce the v like a w.) The hymn "Hail Holy Queen," which can be heard at Catholic services, uses "salve regina" in the chorus, though the verses are now sung in English.
I wish I'd never seen Jane Alexander's last sceneI'm sure it's dedicated with much affection to Newt Gingrich for all his support during her tenure at the National Endowment for the Arts.
for those actors who did choose to step back and let Frid have the spotlight, cost was not a factor.For at least one actor who didn't attend, cost wasn't the issue. As you note, it was a choice to go along with the spirit of the reconfigured event and stay away from it, thereby keeping the event small, even if the actor in question was, in fact, on the East Coast at the time.
Get the patch! I use it all the time when I'm at sea. Despite my fanatical love for being on a ship, I am one of the unfortunate ones who gets mal-de-mar when I stir my coffee too fast. With it, I've never experienced a moment's queeziness, and I've been through some rough waters (including one transatlantic crossing with 40-foot waves). It works perfectly at exorcising that demon in the inner ear!Had it at the time. Didn't work. Perhaps if I had wound myself in them as though I were a mummy . . .

Musto is so well knowm, I'm amazed no one noticed he was there last week!He states at the very beginning of the piece that he did not attend which would explain why no one saw him there.
Getting back to the article, one thing that stumped me was "closets containing entry to hidden horrors." Unless he's thinking of the Narnia booksTsk. Tsk. Tsk. I can't believe I am having to explain this to you of all people. Clearly, it is a reference to the show's fashion horrors.

Frid ordered a lamb chopBarnabas bit Lamb Chop? Now that is just cruel, unless she kept singing "The Song That Doesn't End."
Anyone else?There was also the part when the conductor or the cops asked the guy if he was going to get off and Sheenasma volunteered, loudly, "He's working on it!"
