This whole affair is so not surprising. I was at Lehman as it went down and Skip McGee was well known as one of the ultimate entitled assholes of the world. The day he replaced Joe Gregory, everyone with any decency was upset while his evil fucktard (nearly all white and male) i-banker minions danced around the hallways.
Why can't they put on a production of La Cage aux Folles or The Bird Cage next? Skip's weepy son gets to wear his dress & conservatives & liberals unite - everybody wins!
I'm not a moralist by any means, but I thought my son's pre-school's production of Bad Lieutenant was a poor choice. I will say, however, that little Tyler Steinmetz, as The Lieutenant, totally owned the masturbation scene. So much pain in the eyes.
The set-upon huddled masses of rich entitlement suffer yet another insignificant, inconsequential and otherwise invisible blow to their impregnable default power-base. Oh, the humanity.
Those who are mourning the Kinkaid School's loss can join those mourning the NYS Supreme Court's refusal to let Columbia steal more than the 97% of West Harlem it has already.
@BettyCrocker: Cuz it's one thing when it's just the dispossessed, unemployed, uninformed rubes in the hinterlands who are stupid, but these people have power and authority and $$$$
My high school only had one pep rally a year for Homecoming. The cheerleaders dressed like the football players and the football players dressed like cheerleaders and they were the only ones that thought it was funny or cute, but we humored them.
The only controversy I remember was that they did not want a girl in the Wildcat mascot costume because they were scared she would get felt up by rowdy kids when the mascot did the traditional crowd surf.
(Which is why I wanted to be the mascot in the first place!)
Ray Childress has a lot of nerve keeping his kids in private school after totally screwing his employees and running his Chevy dealership into the ground.
When I was in high school (mumble 1970) the drill team all wore wigs so their hair was identical. Needless to say they were lily white.
@[gawker.com] was hilarious, they looked like 150 high-kicking Barbies during half-time. I think that was the last football game I ever attended. Yeah, Houston is a whole other dimension.

For the love of God! Skip & Co., go check out that play! If you walk away from that with no new insight into all of this, then you're a psychopath.

You know this Edison kid is going to be one pretentious, ego-maniacal prick in college.

That pretty much describes all Kinkaid students.

Yeah, the Wranglerette (Westchester HS) director most definitely stole what I considered to be a stupid idea.
