Cynthia,
I got that you were being funny. I thought it was funny too until I thought
about it... OMG, I have done that!
When you are in a rush, and needing to get people on stage, you really don't
care. Stapling is a lot less painful to the actors' legs than sending them
dancing on stage with a straight-pins in their hems. Staples and paper
clips are the last dig thing to do in an emergency.
I guess I started my emergency tricks when I was in 6th grade... I used to
hem up all the girls' skirts on the bus to school and let down their hems on
the way home. Mom's never knew how short their darlings skirts where when
they were at school. I was carrying my sewing supplies with me for Home Ec.
class during this time.
