Birdie grins mischievously. "Hey LuLu, wanna drag Heath up on stage and get him to do something?" She doesn't mention that she had first thought of saying Vixcis, rather than Heath - that would be much more dangerous.

'Sure, why not?' lulu responds as she stands and follows Birdie to Heath

Birdie goes up to Heath. "Hey Heath, we have a surprise for you!" She grabs his hand and tries to drag him up on stage. With LuLu's help, she's sure they can succeed...

Helping Birdie with Heath, lulu grins widely, she wonders what Birdie has in mind, and what Heath will do

While the girls wrestle with Heath, Yoss sneaks up on stage.  "I'd like to dedicate this to my associate, whose wife recently gave birth, went home seeminly healthy, then swooned a week later.  After being rushed to the hospital it was discoverd that she had been bleeding internally and they did not catch it in time.  She's gone.  I can hardly imagine the pain he's in." (True story)

Yoss queues the music and sings:

"I'm trying hard not to think You unkind
But Heavenly Father
If You know my heart
Surely You can read my mind

Good people underneath the sea of grief
Some get up and walk away
Some will find ultimate relief

Home free, eventually
At the ultimate healing
We will be home free

Home free, oh I've got a feeling
At the ultimate healing
We will be home free

Out in the corridors, we pray for life
A mother for her baby
A husband for his wife
Sometimes the good die young

It's sad but true
And while we pray for one more heartbeat
The real comfort is with You

You know pain has little mercy
And suffering's no respecter of age
Of race or position

I know every prayer gets answered
But the hardest one to pray is slow to come
Oh Lord, not mine, but Thy will be done

Let it be

Home free, eventually
At the ultimate healing
We will be home free

Home free, oh I've got a feeling
At the ultimate healing
We will be home free

Home free, eventually
At the ultimate healing
Gonna be home free

Home free, oh its more than a feeling
At the ultimate healing
Gonna be home free"

Yoss walks off quietly and sits in the corner.

With tears in her eyes, Birdie quietly applauds and sniffles, soon stopping her applause to dig through her pockets for a tissue.

Yoss pulls a box of tissue out of his Portable Portal™ and hands it to Birdie, then returns to the corner.

Birdie smiles, and takes the tissue gratefully.

Yoss's song having set a rather sad tone, and having put Birdie in mind of a loss of her own, she feels the need to sing a song, with slightly altered lyrics...


I still hear your song when I sit in my room
I still feel your heart as it beats true
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard, to fly high

'Cause every time you chirped, I got this feeling
And every time we touched, I felt I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast?
I wanted this to last
Needed you by my side

Cause every time you chirped, I felt so happy
And when I touched your wings, I reached for the sky
Can't you feel my heart beat slow
I can't let you go
Wanted you in my life

Your wings are my dreaming, your heart is my sky
You wipe away tears that I cry
Ooo.. The good and the bad times, we've been through them all
You made me fly when I'd fall

'Cause every time you sang, I got this feeling
And every time we touched I felt I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast?
I wanted this to last
Needed you by my side

'Cause every time you sang, I felt so happy
And when I touched your wings, I reached for the sky
Can't you feel my heart beat so?
I can't let you go
Wanted you in my life

Every time you chirped, I got this feeling
And every time we touched I felt I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast?
I wanted this to last
Needed you by my side

'Cause every time you chirped, I felt so happy
And when I touched your wings, I reached for the sky
Can't you feel my heart beat so?
I can't let you go
Wanted you in my life...




Birdie, struggling to hold back tears, flees the stage to recover her composure.



Rest in peace, Daisy.

Yoss claps a bit for Birdie.


Odd, I thought Heath was being wrestled because he DIDN'T sing.

Yoss, sorry. I get you two confused so easily, it seems. Will edit.

Thanks.

Seeing as Birdie had dropped Heath, Lulu did too, and after seeing the two very sad songs having been sung, she felt the need to put a better mood in the air, so she went to the stage and began to sing, the faintest of irish accents beaming through her hilarious song;
'Well, I came into a scolding wife a few short years ago
And ever since I lead a life of misery and woe
My wife she is a tyrant around the room and the inn
Ah, she'd sell me to the devil for a glass or two of Gin

Sure I'll get up and go to work as mild as any man
And she'll get up and dress herself and go and have her dram
And if I chance to say a word, it's well I know my doom
She'll follow me with the fire shovel up and down the room'
/For this part she took a tambourine out of her grayish-green messenger bag and used it to add extra bounce to the song/
'And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again

When I get home at breakfast time she'll tap me on the head
When I come home at dinner time I'll find her drunk in bed
When I come home at supper time my patience I must stop
'Cause she drank what's in the teapot and I must drink the slops!

And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again

Well, once I asked me scolding wife if I could go to bed
She scarce gave me an hour on the pillow to lay me head
When like a roarin' lion she came bustin' down the door
She caught me by the middle and threw me naked on the floor!

And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again

Now, me and my companions go to a public place
She'll search around the neighbourhood until she finds my face
She'll hoist me up and ridicule me for the company
Saying, "Petticoat is you master, and forevermore shall be."

And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again

And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again

And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again

And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang meself If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang meself if I get married again~~'

When she was done singing she took her tambourine and bowed, before putting it away and hopping off stage with a bit of a grin

FourLegged enthusiastically applaudes

She chuckled softly at FL

Despite the upbeat tune, that's still a sad song.  Sad people, both of them.

Lulu sighs 'D'you have a better idea to lift these spirits then, Yoss?' she said in that same silken voice which meets your mind before it collides with your ears

"Why on earth is everyone so sad?" Taz asks quietly

Probably because no one else is here.

The theater is closed for the Winter season?

Chupa Bob sweeps up spilled popcorn around the theater seats.

They have apparently moved the link, so now I must repost again the link to "Heat Vision and Jack."

If you love Jack Black and Ben Stiller at their wackiest, you might just like this.  It's the 30 minute unaired pilot for a television show in 1999.

Nyoze spills more popcorn around the theatre dancing to whatever he's listening to.

Tanner arrives, dismounting his mighty steed and sits to listen to the lofty antics of Jack Black and Ben Stiller.

Hey, let's sing along!
