October 07, 1996 Concept Statement TRUE COLORS (working title) is a biographical story of part of the life of a young man who is stricken with the disease AIDS. This young man, Danny Keel, has one last dream, to die in the theatre. The theatre is where he has always found his hopes and dreams, his friends and family, and most importantly the love of his life. This is partially a memory play and partially a present-time lounge act. For his final bow he must tell his story, instead of using other people's words. The audience is made up partially of friends and family and partially strangers. Danny simply wants to bring some happiness into people's lives while giving them some thing to think about at the same time. This also allows him to bring some closure to his life by getting some things off his chest that have been haunting him for years. In many ways, just as Torn Wingfield, not to mention Tennessee Williams, does in THE GLASS MENAGERIE. He speaks about the loss of his mother when he was young, the meeting and then loss of his lover as he got older.

    THE BOOK OF THE HUNDREDS Fourth Edition Revised - With Updates containing Prolegomena to Current Martial Rule Matters concerning His Lawful assembly The Non-Statutory Abatement Handbook Written by the several bondmen and unprofitable servants of our Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ Dedication and Acknowledgment Published under the Authority of our Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ to edify His whole Lawful assembly, on this Glorious day of His Eternal Reign We give thanks to our Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ for showing us the Way for us to walk in; for being, expressing and revealing the Truth in Love to us; for being the Life and revealing to all what it means to live for our Father, Abba; and confirming all of the foregoing by paying the ultimate price for all of us who believe on Him, Who now has made manifest all Righteous Judgment of and by the Father. We also give thanks to Him for the diligent labors of our fellow-servants -- our Brothers and Sisters of His assemblies throughout His Everlasting Kingdom -- who, without their vast and continuing fellowship, exhortation, and knowledge concerning His Word and the Power thereof, this book would not otherwise be. We also give thanks to Him for their loving and supporting wives and little ones, for without their support and love for their husbands and fathers, the house is divided and cannot stand. Glory be to God for having them maintain their houses under the Blessed Lordship of Jesus the Christ. They are truly a sanctified and peculiar people worthy of the High and Noble calling of "the Christ's bondmen and unprofitable servants." We give thanks to God our Father and His Anointed One for bringing to us His children's love and fellowship, and ask that His called-out ones keep us in their prayers, as we keep them in ours.
