We need a Zuko tribute I think.
Sorry I haven't been posting lately. Work's been insane.

Monday AMV
I just started watching Death Note, which is good, but disturbing.
I saw this AMV at Otakon, and it got me interested in Death Note in the first place.

Falstaff and Scare Force One
Friday I saw Falstaff at the Kennedy center, and on Sat I saw the DC roller derby at the National Armory. Between the two, I covered the entire spectrum of cultural events this weekend.
Falstaff was very well done, although some unexpected construction slowed us up and we got there just as it was starting. We had to sit in back of house, but it was better than cooling our heels in the lobby until intermission. The music was beautiful, and I especially enjoyed the quartets and octets. Amazing. My favorite part though, occurred in the final act.
Its set in a wood, during a masquerade, and the fairy queen enters with her attendants, all dressed in fluffy white dresses with veils. Its the ballet corps! They walk out slowly, strike a graceful pose, and then lifted their veils to reveal that all the dancers (except the queen) were men. One of them had a beard. They then proceeded to attempt ballet through out the act, including a dramatic run behind the cast as all 30 of them sang together in one final song. It was hysterical.
On Sat we (my roommates and some friends from work) went to check out the DC Rollerderby. We discovered rollerderby after watching "Whip It" and wanted to see the real thing. It was pretty awesome. Not nearly as violent as the movie makes it out to be, although the women take some really hard spills. There was one jam where my favorite jammer "Lenore Gore" from Scare Force One got taken out three times. It looked like it hurt.
I was cheering for Scare Force One, and everyone else cheered for the Cherry Blossom Bombshells because they were wearing pink. My team triumphed with a final score of 143-46. Those girls can skate. Of course, the best part are the names. I liked Condileeze Slice, Splatsy Kline, Skid Ho, and Guantanamo Bay.
After the bouts were over, we went out for burgers. It was fun to drive through DC and see all the parents walking their kids around the neighborhoods. It was a good Halloween
