The Lighthearted Half
Things I learned from the lighthearted first half of the evening:
1. If you want to see an advance screening on Tuesday, get in line on Sunday.
2. When you're holding a rolled up newspaper, all the world looks like a naughty dog*
3. If the company is right, a small safety pin can provide endless entertainment and a new national anthem.
4. Anything done enthusiastically can be performance art, but only if you have a hat.
5. The Blue Ball Machine is entrancing even while completely sober.
*I would never actually discipline a dog by physical means. But really, when I'm walking down Market St. with a rolled up newspaper in my hand, no one is safe. Especially no one in a wheelchair. Really especially no one in a fancy hotel uniform. Really super especially not Jonathan, because I know he'll put up with it and I suspect he likes it.
