I just wanted to say goodbye to all my wonderful friends  in the =
Cleveland/Akron area. I have just moved to Los Angeles, having accepted =
a survival job there. I am working in Hollywood, where I am hoping to =
continue my acting addiction.=20

Cleveland has been a terrific place to live for the last six years and I =
feel very prepared for the starvation and continued rejection that is to =
come. Hey, just remember that Drew Carey, Matt Damen, Ben Affleck and =
even Dennis Kucinich have all lived in their cars. So always remember, =
it doesn't matter what you live in, as long as you have a nice frickin' =
ride.

Some memories will follow:

Martin Friedman--you gave me my first job when I came to town and we =
continued that relationship for about seven more shows. I'll always =
remember you and your dry, histerical sense of humor.

Lucia Columbi--you gave me my first union contract and my first (and =
only i hope) nude role; you had to change the blocking and have me stand =
up, didn't you.=20

Gretchen Thompson--agent and friend. Thanks for believing in me when I =
doubted. Thanks for sticking your neck out to teach me the business. I =
am indebted to you. You rock, baby!!=20

Mitchell Fields--thanks for your fatherly spirit. I learned so much from =
you, mostly by watching you perform.=20

Cleveland Playhouse--thanks for the times you have hired me (albeit few) =
and for the incredible education each role was; you are truly a great =
teacher for the artistic community.

Stephen--I thank God for the time we spent together during Sound of =
Music. You are an inspiration to me and constantly keep me in stitches. =
You finally got rid of me.

Aspertame, aka Jean Zarzour--What else can be said. I have never laughed =
as much as when we were together. You have to be the funniest person I =
know and if there is comedy in heaven, Jean, you will be greeting people =
as they come in.

Susan Lucier--I know we lost touch in the last year but I wanted to =
thank you for your encouragement and friendship. I admire your gifting =
and think you will go down in history as the prettiest dog ever--down, =
Sylvia, down.

David Robiano--thanks for the time we spent together. I know it was a =
year or two ago, but I wanted you to know much I enjoyed working with =
you. You are so talented; I loved watching you in Little Night Music.=20

Bernie Canapari--I only hope that some day I can insire others like you =
have inspired me. I constantly imitate you and your many anecdotes. Good =
times, man.

Melanie Guzman--What a treasure you are. We lived through many =
adventures together. The coolest was talking to each other without =
moving our lips when we were supposed to be frozen in the O Henry sugar =
show.

Bill Wade--Thanks for being my friend. You've got everything, man. =
Everything I admire and strive for. I'll always remember our long talks =
and how we solved the world's problems in one hour. I love you.

Jen Clifford--you drive challenges me. You are constantly working the =
dream and dreaming the work. Keep up the good stuff.

Kaise Rode--Jeez, I don't think I ever had to spell out your name =
before; I hope I got it right. Credeaux Canvas was my fondest memory on =
stage. Thanks for sharing it with me. Oh, did I tell you that I'm =
teaching skydiving now?

Greg and Marrianne--Thanks for all that you guys have taught me, for =
your patience and grit. I hope I have learned it.

Sheri Briton--Your energy and positive attitude have challenged and =
inspired me. Thanks for our friendship.

Fred Sternfeld--I wanted to thank you as so many others have for this =
forum. What a wonderful resource for us.=20

To anyone I forgot, email me, swear at me a little and cut me some =
frickin' slack. I just drove 2800 miles, for Pete's sake. I love you =
all!!!
