To my mind the election was stolen by George Bush and we have been suffering ever since under this man's leadership.

Once I started on 'Frances' I discovered it was literally a bottomless well. It devastated me to maintain that for eighteen weeks, to be immersed in this state of rage for twelve to eighteen hours a day. It spilled all over, into other areas of my life.

It comes down to something really simple: Can I visualize myself playing those scenes? If that happens, then I know that I will probably end up doing it.

What can I say? I hate Bush; I despise him and his entire administration, everything he represents and everything he has tried to do, not only internationally, which is horrific, but domestically as well. In my country the atmosphere is poisoned. Unbreathable for those of us who are not on the right. So thank you for inviting me to this festival and allowing me to leave there for a few days.

I love men. I've always been drawn to poets, artists, and madmen. Sometimes all three in one

Digital doesn't interest me. It's too many steps removed from the actual tactile thing. I still read books. I don't read online.

I never just slide through anything. I explore everything to the fullest, whether good or bad.
