Hey Charlie...

I actually took on the challenge of participating in a Woman's Month extravaganza when I was at NIU. I don't like challenges that segregate certain people from others, but I did it anyway. It was an opportunity. For this concert I wrote a choir piece that almost sounded like church, but the topic was buggers. At the end of the piece, a girl turned around to put a green gummy bear type candy on her finger, and announces that she got a big one. You don't get much cheesier than that, but the audience was rolling on the floor laughing. Cheese is a good thing.
