BO:”Checkmate.” HC:”No, I’m still in.” BO:”Check the board; I won.” HC:”No, I still have two roundhead guys and a horse.” BO:”OK. Whatever.”

Takin it back to the old skool. This looks pretty cool.

We had a fantastic time tonight as Cirque du Soleil’s “Corteo” performance tonight. The shows are always so amazing from an acrobatic standpoint, but tonight I was really captured by their showmanship. They are just brilliant at keeping the audience engaged through the entire show. In one act, a lot of fake snow had built up on the stage which needed to be swept up before the next act could come on. Instead of dimming the lights, or making the audience sit through two passes of floor brooms, they made a whole skit out of it–complete with rubber chickens falling from the sky to the stage (thus affording them another “free pass” at the fake snow). These guys are masters at engaging performances and we would all do well to take a cue from their brilliance.

A friend passed this along the other day. It hurts my brain. I do appreciate one of the comments on the page saying that you should watch this – then watch Donnie Darko.
