‘liked to send gay-sounding e-mails to other straight guys’

This “comic” fiend of yours sounds like a real laugh riot. However well known he is in Chicago he should stay there. 🙄

No. He's a really nice guy, well-liked and respected in the Chicago community. The e-mails were not mean spirited. He would portray himself as faux-gay. He was only about 21 or so when he did stuff like that. The things he did reminded me of the e-mails that Jared concocts for his imaginary Connor. Jared suggests (jokingly) that Evan and Connor were secretly gay friends.

The actual gay guys in our office were not offended by him. They thought he was funny and harmless. I wouldn't consider Jared's actions in Hansen to be offensive. He's funny.

As I said before, David Letterman featured him on his show twice.

Would the waiters at the Harmonia Gardens, who haven't seen Dolly Levi for many years, really feel comfortable greeting her by her first name? Wouldn't it be frowned upon at a ritzy restaurant for the waiters to take that liberty? Shouldn't the title of the musical be, Hello Mrs Levi?

Hello, Levi! sounds snappier, though. ;-)
