David MacFarlane - The Globe & Mail, 05/14/01:<BR> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR><B>Sorry, Puccini, you don't fit on the spreadsheet</B><P>I was going to write this week about the pleasure of seeing Xiao Nan Yu and Rex Harrington dance in the National Ballet's very lovely production of Madame Butterfly. Unfortunately, I'm too busy. I've got things to do. I've got important meetings to attend and crucial memos to send. I've got a vision to envision and a mission statement to state. Sorry, but I'm far too preoccupied with coming up with a business plan for my column to bother about something like how beautiful Madame Butterfly is.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>To read more:<BR>Netscape Users: Search <B>David MacFarlane</B> on the [url=http://www.globeandmail.com" TARGET=_blank>Globe & Mail's</A> 7 Day Search<BR>IE Users: Use this direct <a href="http://archives.theglobeandmail.com/s97is.vts?action=View&VdkVgwKey=%2Fusr%2Flocal%2Frealtime%2Fsearch%2Fhtml%2F20010514%2FRVMACF%2Ehtml&DocOffset=1&DocsFound=2&QueryZip=davi d+macfarlane&Collection=TGAM&SortField=sortdate&ViewTemplate=GAMDocView%2Ehts&SearchUrl=http%3A%2F%2Farchives%2Etheglobeandmail%2Ecom%2Fs97is%2Evts%3FQueryZip%3Ddavid%2Bmacfarlane% 26ResultTemplate%3DGAMResults%252Ehts%26QueryText%3Ddavid%2Bmacfarlane%26Collection%3DTGAM%26SortField%3Dsortdate%26ViewTemplate%3DGAMDocView%252Ehts%26ResultStart%3D1%26ResultCoun t%3D10&]<B>link</B>[/url]<P><p>[This message has been edited by Marie (edited May 15, 2001).]
