hold me closer Tony Danza... watch the headlights on the highway... lay me down in sheets of linen...

The scene opens in a CHAT WINDOW of the MSN MESSENGER persuasion.
Our players, STEPH and EMILY are engaged in a discussion of the meaning of Elton John's song 'Tiny Dancer'.
EMILY has just revealed the purpose of ELTON'S LYRICIST when writing the song...


Emily: Actually the song is about his wife.

Steph: Oh, I always thought it was about a hooker.

Emily: No. She was a roadie.

Steph: Oh, dang, I thought she might have been a *classy* hooker, you know... redeemable. But she's just a groupie...

Emily: No, she's a roadie. There's a tiny difference...

Steph: She's sleeping with a band member, she's a groupie.

Emily: Seamstress for the band, Steph. Seamstress for the band...

Steph: "Hey, anybody here order a seamstress?"

Emily: *laughing*

Steph: "Yeah, I think the band did..."

Emily: *laughing*

Steph: "Oh yeah, baby, you THREAD that needle!!! Darn my socks, baby, oh god yes!"

Emily: You are my hero.

Steph: I wonder if she sewed the sheets of linen herself...?
