A View of the World from Bill Sykes

RIGHT! BILL SYKES 'ERE! NOBODY MENTIONS MY NAME! HA! But seriously, when I ain't around robbin' old ladies, scarin little kids or steppin' on kittens, I like to kick back and pondah the complexities of this daft thing called life. Me ol' pal Fagin's all caught up in the acquisition o' wealth - and Nancy!? Well, she just ain't really evah seen things my way, 'as she? She whines on and on about how unfair life is and such. WELL, IT AINT FAIR, IS IT!? And if I evah catch that rat Oliver again, you can bet 'e won't forget it! Me? Well, it's all about tha thrill o' the chase, ain't it? About dodging the beaks and flattenin' a few coppers. Why, I only feels alive when I got someone's tooth stuck in me knuckle. So, take it from ol' Bill - get out there and have a good time in this fine life - it's the only one ya get! Now, where's Bullseye? 'Ere boy! We're goin' down to the Three Cripples and scare a few pounds outta some poofy ol' bleedin sots. An if you don't like it, just shut yer festerin' gob and P-off! Who needs ya? Where's me jimmy?!?!?

The Play

Well, I'm now in "Oliver!" up to my neck, and I still am wondering if this was a good idea. I think I can sing it, but the lines and the timing are intimidating. Tyler Orsak did let me borrow his prized top hat, which is pretty neat. There aren't that many lines. Everyone else believes in me, so I guess it's time to start believing in myself. Because I'm good enough, I'm smart enough and dog gone it, people like me!

First Blog Evah!

Don't really have anything to say, and pretty sure no one wants to read it, but here it is, my very first blog! I'm glad this weekend is over, but I'm happy to have sold $800 worth of artwork!
