(I think this was the link: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=RNWG%2CRNWG%3A2005-02%2CRNWG%3Aen&q=under+milk+wood+clocks+tick-tock&btnG=Search)

I check it out from home.

Playing a clock is quite a stretch for Nordlys, but she needs to keep expanding her theatrical repertoire. I understand she is up for the part of a toaster in an upcoming play.

Yes, but of the pastry variety of danish. Actors playing various breakfast pastries comiserate on the unfairness of kitchen counter existence.

The original kitchen sink drama. The toaster is perceived by the pastry comestibles as a gateway to hell.

Is it true that there are only female toasters?

No. Most of them are male. That's why it is "der Toaster" in German.

OK. What if you put a knitted cosy over it?

As such, I'm sure it will be an emotionally-tiring role, trying to make the audience fear the toaster as much as the danish and muffins do.

Is Muffy in this play?

Just trying to keep my forum identity topically current.

Are you channeling Eric Cartman?
