No sh*t, Sherlock. Did you read what I wrote? I voted for a nominee, but stated I felt it was the best musical of the season.

You don't have to be rude...I misunderstood and thought you were saying you thought Aida was the Best Musical winner of the season. Sorry.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.
