Thanks, Dog. Hope you did, too. :)
I'll let you know on Thursday.
Please do. Freepmail me if it is too juicy to go live with it...
The show was excellent. Rick is a very talented story teller. The show lasted about an hour and he spoke the entire time. The only weak point was the ending. As a liberal, he just could not resist getting a slam in on Bush at the end & the story he used to get that slam rang hollow and mean spirited (still many in the audience loved it as I assume most were Clinton fans). In spite of that I would tell people to see it as the story of how his friendship begins, flourishes & ends with Bill is hilarious. I also came away feeling better about Bill Clinton as a dog owner. I always assumed he was using Buddy as a political prop, but this guy knew Bill and hung out with both him & Buddy.
He also really makes Hillary out to be the shrew. He tells of how she & Bill bickered over dinner and a few other revealing stories about their interactions.
Rick ended up in Amsterdam with Bill & Christopher Walken smoking hash at the Bulldog Cafe (I have been there & it is an awesome place). Hillary confronts Rick later with a file marked "Amsterdam" and pulls out an 8 X 10 of Rick passing Bill a joint. Hillary then tells Rick that he can no longer be friends with BIll. The scene is told in such a funny way but it still conveys the scary power and control Hill has over Bill. (After hearing her shrill voice in speeches, I have often felt sympathy for Bill)
(more later, I have to take a shower & get to work)
As for the Ann Coulter comments in the play. It was something unexpected. Rick expalins how he loves political talk shows and Ann Coulter is his favorite guest. He makes a comment about if she were a WWF or video game character her nickname would be something like "Shanna, She Wolf of the SS" (thus fulfilling the liberal nazi comment requirement).
As the story goes, he is asked to appear on a panel of a talk show. The other guests are Ann Coulter & Penn Teller (everyone is on a satellite feed in a different city). He explains how he studied up on all the headlines, read the papers, watched the news...even read the blogs. He said "I did more homework for this show than I ever did in school". Then, he explains that every time he is asked a question....he stutters, makes no sense and recites metaphors that have no relevance to the topic all the while sweating....he totally chokes.
Bill called him afterwards to say "I saw you on the show. Ann Coulter kicked your ass." Bill then asks if Rick thinks Ann is good looking?" Rick responds that she is too skinny and Bill says "James Carville once sent me an email of her wearing nothing but high heels and stepping on a mouse. "
Still kinda wish there was some sauce on Coulter...Oh well, maybe next time!!
He does reveal that Bill could have had Sharon Stone when she stayed at the White House, but Hillary was watching him like a hawk.
That won't be a problem they will just run three or four ultra leftists and Hillary will win.
Ha! lmao... He should'a brought home some of that hash(if he did not) and smoke alittle with Hillary and they both could'a went it and got some lol...
> We're also told about a trip to Amsterdam where Clinton, Christopher Walken and Cleveland smoke some very good hash in a stoner bar...<
You think this really happened? The ex-Pres is going to shake his Secret Service detail and smoke hash unrecognized in Amsterdam? If so, I have this nice bridge in New York I'd like to sell you.
Oh yeah, when Rick sees him take the hit....he says "Hey, I thought you didn't inhale?" Clinton responds "I didn't inhale then...on my first time....and that was pot."
Rick looks at the audience & says "It's all about semantics".
LOL...sounds like a good show. Thanks for your reviews! :)
You are most welcome. There were plenty of other funny parts I didn't mention. One favorite line was this:
Bill & Rick are riding in the limo (secret service in limo too) on their way out to the beach to walk the dogs & both dogs have their heads out the window. Bill says "Someday, it is just gonna be me & Buddy riding down the road in a pick up truck".
Rick turns his head & asks "What about HIllary?"
Bill says "Hillary hates pick up trucks".
Pinging you to my review....
In another part of the story, Bill, Rick, Roger Clinton & Billy Bob Thorton are riding in the limo going to Billy Bobs place after the Clinton Library opening. They are all drinking beers & Ricks commentary was: "The secret service were riding in the car behind us. I think that was the only thing keeping Billy Bob & Roger from tossing their empties out the window."
He then tells of their jam session and how Roger & Billy bOb got into a shoving match then they played Trivial Pursuit.
He makes me so proud.
/sarc
Nope, the secret service were there....Rick says he is fairly certain that the SS agent took the photo.
White Trash is White Trash, Summer. I don't care if he was Pope, he denigrated the White House, the Office of the Presidency and the entire US of A.
Our kids are running around having "sex" that really isn't sex - because BJ Clinton said it wasn't.
In 8 LONG years he practically ruined this country.
He's White Trash. Period.
And if his wife becomes President - we can kiss our a**es goodbye!
I wish you had waited until next week to see it with me!
Darn!
Can't wait to hear all the rest!
LOL!!!
