bmiller@zdlmail.ziff.com (Miller, Ben) asks: >Last night as I sat at Candlestick Park watching the SF Giants flailing in the >wind, a thought came to during the fourth inning..... >What if Kate were pitching? She'd do quite well, because (OK, everyone in unison now!): She has perfect pitch! On a completely different note, I went to see "The Lion King" a couple of nights ago. This is a must-see for every KateFan(tm), because: o One of the major characters is voiced by Rowan Atkinson, with whom Kate did the duet "Do Bears..." o The music is done by Elton John (of Whom Kate covered "Rocket Man" and "Candle in the Wind") o The music is also done by Tim Rice, who co-edited the books "British Hit Singles" and "Britsh Hit Albums", both which, naturally, mention Kate prominently o The obvious "Lionheart" connection. Going WAY off topic now, several people made a big deal about how this is the first Disney film not to use a public domain plot. It concerns the story of how the father of the lead character was king. The king was killed by an evil uncle who assumed the throne, and the lead character became all depressed. Eventually, the ghost of the father tells the son to seek revenge. Now, I'm pretty sure I heard this plot SOMEWHERE before... - Stev0 the gibbon "Baldrick, you're so dim-witted you'd laugh at Shakespeare's comedies" - Blackadder
