Oprah’s Book Club is one book club that almost everyone knows about. Oprah has singlehandedly awakened adult interest in reading books and discussing them with others.

She has served the same purpose as Harry Potter—his author’s influence on pre-teen reading has been nothing less than spectacular.

Now, the economy just doesn’t affect the adults, it affects the younger crowd too.

With the crazy gas prices (which are actually getting better) and the money that has to go toward school, I would have never guessed that this would effect me the way it has.

Now that I have a car and drive myself everywhere, I’ve noticed that most of my money has gone straight toward gas, and I have to say my car is not the most efficient on gas. It’s good, but it has a big tank so when I go to fill it up it takes about 30 dollars or more.

Environmental friendliness, or what we call “green,” is enjoying unprecedented popularity. Hollywood celebrities can now be seen on cable TV showing off the solar panels on their multi-million dollar mansions.

Indeed, you will even hear that “green is the new black.”

On one level, that’s great. It’s hard to find fault with people seeking to reduce their environmental footprint. But on another level, it’s troubling.

It’s a funny show about serious issues — an evening of song,  dance and good clean musical fun on the themes of racism, naziism, homosexuality, and other adult topics.
