So later, during the first half of the show, I noticed it again and it was sort of distracting — and in case you haven't noticed,<br />
I'm a little laid back up here — so I thought, 'Let me just tell everyone what's going on.' I went over to the edge of the stage<br />
and I worked my way down from my 5 foot 10 ½ inch height, in my low cut dress… I worked my way down very carefully to<br />
pick that quarter up… and it was NAILED TO THE STAGE! [audience laughter]<br />
…And I just knew someone in that building, a stage hand, was just laughing his a** off at me! [more laughter]<br />
… The quarter was supposed to be there. It was marking center stage! But showbiz "newbie" that I was, I had no idea at the<br />
time… and ever since that day, quarters have followed me!"<br />
ABOUT PETS ALIVE...<br />
Pets Alive is a no-kill animal shelter, located in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains, about 1 1/2 hours from New York City.<br />
Their mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and place animals in need with loving, safe and secure families. Many of the animals<br />
taken in by Pets Alive are victims of neglect, abuse, and violence, or have special needs and have been rejected by other<br />
organizations. But this doesn't mean they should be given up on — Pets Alive believes that with proper love and care, these<br />
animals can once again flourish.<br />
