THE MORAL
OF THE STORY
aroWld me. Spring was in full bloom. and
the sky and ocean were dressed in their
finest blue splendor. Colorful Dowers
seemed to sprout in every direction and
several birds played in the breeze.
I had been thinking about Easter,
about the unfathomable way God demon-
strate<lihis love. After all God bas done for
me, r wanted to do more for him, but I
didn't know what or how. I asked God to
show me. Just then, two little boys ran in
front of me chasing pigeons. I watched
them for a while. One of them headed for
so"f~u.shes, then stopped abruptly. • ddy, are there tigers in these bush-
es? · e ch~b-~ boy asked.
• n, there aren't any 6gers, just a
few squirrels," the father answered.
'•
n it comes to Sunday services,
g hunts, special vigils and
erything else Easter-related,
ewport-Mesa churches will be
hopping with celebrations this weekend.
The Uberty Baptist Church presented its
last perlormance df the musical "The
Highest Place" Friday to dramatically por-
tray the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
We wanted •to make it come alive for
people who have never considered what the
crucifixion meant,• said music director
Danny Thomas.
Most area churches also started the
observance this week and will continue
their worship through the weekend.

I looked back at the sparkling ocean
and started counting some of the bless-

way past 41, and that's when I realized [
want to consciously thank God more
often.
I dosed my eyes and listened to the
sound of the waves and the orchestra of
singing birds. The gentle breeze mes-
saged my face and the warm sun kissed
my cheeks. The powerful hymn, •Great is
Thy Faithfulness" came to mind and I
started bumming the tune quietly. I
thanked God for his faithfulness and
blE!Smngs.
I looked down at tHe beach and
noticed footprints of all si7.es going in
every direction. I looked around at the
beauty SWTOund.ing me again and real-
ized that footprints of God's love are for-
ever imprinted in the message of Easter.
And you can quote me on that.

In the six years I have
been ranting about bow won-
derful life is without televi-
sion. I have never heard any·
one tell me that I am wrong;
that life is better with the TV
on.
On the contrary, those few
parents who have reported
d.irectly back to me tell me
how much better home life is
with9ut the TV on. it only for
a week. They tell me that
their kids are reading more
and playing outside more.
Perhaps most important, they
tell me that their kids are
actually conversing more with
them.
By now, this should not be
news to anyone, even those
keeping the tube on. What
most cmturbs me, however, is
how the mountain of positive
no-TV data is consistently
ignored by decision-makers,

1 have my own theory as to
why educators and others do
not promote a TV-free
lifestyle. I believe it's because
in order to ask kids to cul
back or eliminate TV from
their lives, these adults would
have to turn it off, too, and
that's very hard to do. I know
because I've been through 1t.
So here is my annual chal-
lenge to you. This time, how-
ever, it's time to stop relying
on government or our schools
to make the first move. If you
have kids, one of the best
things you can do fOI' their
grades, their health and their
overall growth is lb tum off -
the 'JV. There 1S no better
time than today.

DREAM OFFER
Your agent just called to siy
that he or she has an offer on
your home. You arc rea.lly
excited, but the bubble bursts
when you are presented with the
contract. It is just not enough!
1bc buyers asked for your new
washing machine, and they '1so
want to postpone the closing for
three months. You don't see
bow it can wonc!
Before rejecting any offer oo
your property. you should
consider making a counter offer.
Rarely docs an offer look the
way it would if you had written
it yourself. Consider the good
and bad points of the offer, and
work with the agents to fiod a
middle ground that you and the
buyers can live with. You may
have to go back and forth
several times, and there will
probably be compromises on
both sides. Unless you arc lucky
enough to be selling in a strong
seDers' mark.ct, the buyers will
expect 10 do some bargaining.
With a linlc patience, you aod
your agent can create a "win-

No. 13: •A smart girl makes a
man sweat."
recently published book, which hit
stores last November, is the fiction-
al tale of a bored Southern belle
named Sissy who lives in Gentry,
Louisiana in 1956.
She's married to PeeWee
LeBlanc and bas kids, but finds her-
self tempted by her high school
flame of 1~ yea.rs ago. The book
jumps in time to explain Sissy's life
and reveals how she • bieaks out•
of her stagnant state in the end.
Every chapter begins wi1b a new
rule. •1 think it was Oscar Wtlde who
said never trust a woman who will
give you her age. If she'll tell you
that, she'll tell you anything,• said
Despres, who appears Thursday at
the Newport Beach Central
No. 48 is: "It's OK for a woman
to know her place. She just
shouldn't stay there.•
No. 103: •Never marry a man
who makes your skin crawl.·
Uke Despres, her character
Sissy LeBlanc adheres to the same
guidelines.
Despres, who will sign books
Thursday, set the story in the mid
'50s to make a political point.

DAILY PILOT
A lmost everyone knows a Langley or
Homer Collyer, said actor Matt
Roth.
The ones whose shutters are
always closed, who venture out only after
dark, who keep their neighbors guessing as to
why they1re so peculiar.
Roth, who plays Homer in Richard
Greenberg)s •111e Dazzle," once knew such
eccentrics. He had a paper route as a kid and
biked around every month collecting fees.

lead dancers Michael Pa.trick
Gallagher and Tara Bany, who take
turns tea.ting up the stage and finally
close the petformance with a flashy
duet. Gallagher in particular exhibits
the awesome velocity of foot mov~
ment that characterizes the Irlsh
dance form, while Barry renders a
lithe, lighthearted counterpoint Both
are young, blond and supremely tal-
ented.
Youth is a determining factor in
such a show, with the shelf life of a
dancer in this show probably between
five and 10 years. Exceeding energy la
demanded in director John
McColgan's robUft production, and hi.a
dancers exhibit this quality quite
memorably.
Highlighting the inipressive e:xhibt-
tion is "'trading Taps," a back-street

ENGAGEMENTS
They came from
Shreveport, Lo.. to
Newport Beach, Peggy
and Aaron Seiber Jr. whisked
into town last week to spend a
bit of quality time with daugh-
ter Pam Weston and her hUJ-
band Mark Weston of Newport
Bea.ch. This in and of itself is
not so unusual. However,
Peggy and Aaron wanted to
meet Pam and Mark's friends,
so they took over the top Door
of Andy Crean'• Villa Nova
Restaurant and told their chil-
dren to send out invitations.
The Selben., prominent·
Louisiana merchants, make a
habit ot getting to know their
grown children's pa]s. Whenever
they come to town, glasses are
toasted 1n celebration.
At their recent evening on
the California Riviera, tennis
was the common denominator.
The Westons are dedicated
tennis enthusiasts, so they
invited their fellow players
from the Palisades Tennis Club
in Newport Beach to meet the
parents and other family mem-
bers including Dewey and
Gigi Corley, also in town from
Shreveport.
Cousin Anne Jenkins joined
the fun, chatting with USC
football great Tino Lagano and
his wife Donna. Cardiologist
Brian Chemie and his wife
Robin were spotted in the
crowd along with Kelly
Knight, Unda Roberts, Don
and Sm.anne Smith, Kerry and
Tracy Gtzant, Lynn and Rich
Cohen, Mallory Ketchum
Heydorlf, Don and Kim
Campbell, and Debbie and
Gene Lee. Also attending the
dinner were EWe Snow and
Rich Weed, and Stacy and
John Blaugrund.
The Villa Nova catenng
staff served sausage and pep-
pers, Caesar salad chicken

Oscar mania invaded the
Orange Coast this past week
as multiple charities capital-
ized on the golden statuette
named after the late Bettie
Davis' husband Oscar. Why
was it named after him? The
story goes that Davis, at a very
early Academy Awards pre-
sentation in the late 1930s,
took one look at the statue
(before it had a name) and
commented, "The backside
looks just like my husband
Oscar.•
So the award that captivates
the world and motivates mega-
chantable giving i$ named for
a dead man's cterrtere:-•
The Divas of the Balboa
Theatre took full advantage of
the occasion, hosting an ele-
gant Saturday evening dinner
at the Clubhouse at Pelican
Hill. Chaired by Darby
Manclark, Nancy lrvlne, Carol
Durham and Denise Mock, the
Oscar affair called for costume
attire, and dress up they did.
Eve Komyei, Divas presi-

DESPRES
CONTINUED FROM A 10
"I've been involved in
civil rights all my life, " she
said. "1956 was an election
year, when politicians were
campaigning on how bigoted
they were, and I thought this
was a fun time to poke fun
of."
"Scandalous" is a funny
and touching love story, but
it also deals with racism and
anti-Semitism.
Despres, who grew up as
part of a Jewish household in
a home with bullet holes in
the walls near her bedroom,
shared the following family
story to explain the shots.
In the '20s, a group of big-
ots called the Just Our Kind
gang wanted to run the Jews
out of Tangipahoa Parish in
Louisiana. Despres' great-
great-grandfather owned a
store in town and decided no
one was going to run him out
of his own home.
uTbe gang came gallop-
ing into om yard, it looked
like a Western movie, they
had their hats pulled down
low, they had handkerchiefs
on their faces, and they
yelled •Be prepared to meet
your maker!"' Despres said,
recounting the story she
heard growing up.

ther, though blind, shot back,
but it was Despres' great-
great-grandmother who
helped drive the gang away.
"She was a good shot,•
Despres said. ·she and the
children shot back and they
didn't bother us ever again."
While Despres' great-
great-grand.mother was
known for how she could
work a gun, the author
remembers her grandmother
being a gracious Southern
lady who always wanted
everything to be done just
perfect. She use to give
Despres advice on what
smart girls do.
The author's aunt was ·also

backdrops and Joan Bergin's
colorful costumes complete
the impressive stage picture.
One perlormance alone
who gave her niece advice
on how to be popular and
how to Dirt.
Despres' mother was
tough. She was a business-
woman who didn't want any
boys to take advantage of
her daughter.
Today, Despres is a mix of
her female roots and has
written a character that is
very much like herself,
friends say.
"I thought it was an
absolute reflection of Loraine
'cause she's thoughtful and
bright and giving women all
those kinds of views," said
longtime friend Dianne
Dixon.

Despres is also a screen-

Her television writing credits
include •Love Boat,• "Knots

"Dynasty," for which she is
best known for the "Who

There are scenes that she
just won't touch -the ones
she gets perfect the first time
and doesn't even think to tin-
ker with.
~Scandalous" has a scene
like this -the one where the
villain seduces a 16-year-old
Sissy.
But Despres' favorite writ-
ing moment is when she sur-
prises herself, which hap-
pened just last week while
working on her next novel.
•I wanted to cut and I
wanted to polish up a diffi-
cult chapter but I came up
with a sentence that just tick-

DAZZLE
CONTINUED FROM A 10
Repertory through April 26,
centers around a pair Of· odd
brothen inspired by two real-
llfe men also known as
-America's mOst famous
eccentrics.•
The Collyer brothers are
the focus of this three-actor
play, but the characters are
only loosely based on the real
duo who lived in New York
during the first half of the
20th century.
R.oth'a Homer spends most
his energy making sure that ~his pianist-brother Langley
(played by JD Cullum) does-
n't waste the family money.
Homer is •entirely
wrapped up in his brother,
he's stifled in his environ-
ment,• Roth said. •tte bas to
create ways to sort of survive
that and maintain a shred of
sanity."
Langley is completely
dependent on Homer for
everything from his finances
to his personal upkeep. He
al.so oft.en falls into a state -
which explains the title, "The
Dazzle" -where he fixates
and is dazzled by things as
small as a strand of thread.
"When he totally focuses
on one small, minute aspect
of his world, • said dJ.rector
Mark Rucker. "I think that's
an intense experience for
him."
But when a wealthy young
socialite (played by Susannah
Schulman) in Jove with
Langley enters both of their
lives, she wants to change the
brothers' ways
Starting wtth some
cleanup.
Greenberg's work, which
is the last to be presented on
the small Second Stage
before SCR goes dark for ren-
ovations and expansions,
takes place m a 5th Avenue
New York mansion that is
cluttered and stacked with at
least two of everything.
Set designer Darcy Scanlin
portrays the real Collyers'
disposophobia, an obsessive-
compulsive ctisorder where

you hoard things, in abstract
ways. There are 10 lamps in
the room Scanlin has
'designed, two large pianos,
multiple Oriental rugs th.at
meld into each other and
stacks of newspapers.
History bas it that the
brothers were recluses who
kept the public wondering
about whether Homer was
even alive and about why
Langley went out only late at
night. Langley was later
learned to have fiddled with
inventions and Homer was
discovered to have been
blind, rheumatic and eventu-
ally paralyzed.
When police broke into
their apartment after reports
that there was a dead body in
the house, they found the two
brothers dead and 30 tons of
everything from machinery to
furniture.
"It's a very intriguirlg
play," Rucker said. "And cer-
tairlly, everybody that I know,
that I've talked to about this
play. seems to know some-
body that has a conrution like
this .•
Greenberg's tender treat-
ment of the brothers through
his unpredictable story makes
for a sad story, Roth added.
"It is dramatic, but it's also
very funny and it's also very
sad and I think that's why
you go to the th~ter, • be
said. "To experience those
. things. And as an auruence
member, you don't like to be
ahead of where the play is
going and that's JUSt not the
case with this."

For Only $19 You Can Help ...
Axe you an animal lover? Here's a great way to express it.
Sponsor a pct photo on our special "Save a Life"
page publishing on Thursday, April 25, 2002.
Your sponsorship will secure a space for a photo of a pct who is
available for adoption and needs a good home. This special page
has saved hundreds of lives all over the state, thanks to people
like you! Be a part of saving a life and feel great about doing it.
This page is presented in conjunction with local animal shelters
and Newport Beach Animal Control Services.
For just $19, you can add your own special
thoughts under the pet's photo. It will
display your name as the sponsor of this
pet, or you may include a loving memory
of one of your own cherished furry friends.
