I agree with MH! That's very amazing! I can imagine cutting it. From what it looks like, it looks like it'd pretty hard to cut it!

The poodle is all cake, so it wouldn't be so hard to cut. I think that you would have to behead it, though.
btw, MH, I
was able to pass something along to Al for both Nina and Suzanne. When I met Al backstage after the Jackson, MI show on 3/26/04, I gave him a box of chocolates with two chocolate roses taped to the top. They were filled with peanut butter, and I told him they were for Suzanne and Nina. Inside the box were chocolate instruments for all the guys.

Al saw the chocolate accordion, and said "How fun!"

I was coming home from the shore today and saw a van for a plumber (I think), and the name of the company was Paradee, which is close enough for me. Then down the road a bit was a beuty salon, called Bad Hair Day.

I seem to remember that Al turned down a spot on NYPD Blue or Law & Order or something, because he didn't want that kind of publicity.
Can anyone confirm this, or did I dream the whole thing?

Eddie Schmidt of LA, CA asks: Have you ever turned down any acting roles because they didn't jibe with your style and/or sense of humor?
Yes, on occasion I get offered acting roles that are either a little off-base or WAY off-base. I briefly had an agent that sent me out for pretty much any role that he could find. He got really excited one day because he thought he could get me a guest spot on "L.A. Law"
as a hot-tempered short-order fry cook who sexually molests retarded women. You know, as much as I'd like to expand as an actor, I thought that was juuuust a little too much of a stretch for me.

I still can't work out why he turned that down

Thanks Grom!
I read the A-AAs looking for it, but didn't see it there
I must need more sleep.

Well it was step down from being cooking burgers, that was probably part of his decision.

Wow, that Poodle cake is absolutely amazing! I can't imagine eating that. It's like a work of art!

I've been reading replies in my cakes and cookies group about that cake. The head is actually rice krispie treats, but the rest of the poodle is cake. It is really creative. This gal actually sounded disappointed with it. Can you imagine? Everyone told her she is too hard on herself, and that the poodle cake is great.
I really would love to make one of those cakes for a little girl's birthday.
