I am a Thespian

Yes, I am a histrion. It sounds more exciting than merely saying I am
an actor.


After I retire, I may pursue a career in comedy. But if that doesn't
work out, I may try acting. Today I test the waters. I have my first
rehearsal with Second Act for my role in "I am the Vine," a dramatic
portrayal of the Last Supper.


I'm trusting our new drama director, Vanessa Burks, will go easy on
me. I'm sure my feelings will be very sensitive.


I am experiencing the jitters Harrison Ford and Meg Ryan felt the
first time they went on stage. This is tough, but the show must go on.
