For the soul is dead that slumbers...

R.I.P. Nathan Alexander

05/26/2009



Strike



Terrible news. At 1:00 p.m. yesterday afternoon, Nathan Alexander, one of the professors from the history department at my university, passed away. Dr. Alexander was one of the most influential people in my academic and personal life, and when I found out last semester that he would be taking leave to battle leukemia, I prayed that God would heal his body and bring him back to his students. I also prayed that he would pull through for his daughter, the love of his life. The saddest part of this whole thing is that Dr. Alexander made it through every hoop he had to jump to even get the marrow transfusion, battling a series of infections along the way. Once he received it, he was well on his way to recovery, only to contract a strain of influenza that resulted in yesterday's tragic events. Please keep Dr. Alexander's family, especially his daughter, in your thoughts and prayers and they deal with this loss.

We love and miss you Nathan.

HAHA - PATTI'S VOICE HAS A CLARITY, YO. LIKE A BELL. ELAINE'S VOICE ISN'T LIKE THIS - IT'S MORE BREATHY. MURKY. IT'S LIKE CLEAR WATER VERSUS MUDDY WATER. I DON'T KNOW QUITE HOW TO DESCRIBE THE DIFFERENCE, BUT PATTI IS OH SO MUCH MORE SATISFYING TO LISTEN TO! GOSH, YO - WHEN I FIRST DISCOVERED HER VERSION OF EVITA, AFTER ONLY HAVING HEARD ELAINE PAIGE, I WAS IN DELIGHT!

HAHA - PATTI OVERACTS, IT'S TRUE. SHE'S TOTALLY A CONVINCING EVITA THOUGH! SHE WAS MADE FOR THAT PART. I'VE NEVER CONSIDERED ELAINE PAIGE A PARTICULARLY GOOD ACTRESS THOUGH. FOR ACTING, MY FAVE IS BERNADETTE PETERS. GOSH, SHE IS THE BEST, YO! OH - AND RUTHIE HENSHALL - SHE TOTALLY BEATS THEM ALL IN ACTING THE PAIN OF 'I DREAMED A DREAM'.

MY FAVOURITE SISTER IS TOTALLY AN ELAINE PAIGE FAN, YO! BACK IN THE DAY, BEFORE I'D HEARD OF PATTI, MY SIS AND I WOULD ARGUE OVER WHO WAS THE BEST OUT OF ELAINE PAIGE AND BARBARA DICKSON - I WOULD TOTALLY ALWAYS SAY BARBARA DICKSON, YO! I STILL PREFER HER VOICE TO ELAINE'S, ALTHOUGH SHE HAS NOT BEEN AS SUCCESSFUL. I THINK SHE DIDN'T HAVE SUCH DEDICATED AMBITION AS ELAINE THOUGH - LIKE SHE GOT MARRIED, HAD KIDS AND HER PRIORITIES ALL CHANGED. AND SHE NEVER REALLY HAD A BELTER TYPE VOICE FOR HARDCORE MUSICAL SUCCESS. SHE HAS A SOFTER, DEEPER, MORE EMOTIONAL VOICE.

What do you mean by that?

Oh. Got ya. Well, I guess that's just a personal choice.

Yeah. I have a degree that's useless. Actually, my nursing degree will be useless too. I have to pass boards before it does anything for me.

Loved your comment on Euthanizing fat people. I couldn't tell if that was a joke entry or what?

Oh well I'm relieved to know that he wasn't serious. so the last part of your comment... were you saying you are looking at grad school? and thoughts on what? you will have to excuse of sometimes I'm a ditz.

ODDLY, I IMAGINE THAT 'BOTHER' AND 'RATHER' COULD RHYME IN AN AMERICAN ACCENT, ALTHOUGH NEVER IN AN ENGLISH ONE. BUT YES, FARMERS AND PYJAMAS TOTALLY RHYME IN AN ENGLISH ACCENT, YO. BACK IN THE DAY WHEN TIM RICE WROTE ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER'S LYRICS. WHEN HE SWITCHED TO DON BLACK, ALL THE RHYMES WORKED IN BOTH AMERICAN AND ENGLISH ENGLISH.

ALTHOUGH, HAVING SAID THAT, I WONDER IF AN OLD FASHIONED POSH ENGLISH ACCENT WOULD HAVE SAID 'ROTHER' FOR 'RATHER'. LIKE, I THINK IT USED TO BE PRONOUNCED A BIT DIFFERENTLY FROM HOW IT'S PRONOUNCED NOW.
