Props to Eddie Izzard for a great show! I give it seven out of ten Dress to Kills.

Slops to TD Banknorth Garden for almost ruining what should have been the most magical evening of our young lives by refusing to let in anyone who had a backpack, which was everyone, and not having any storage lockers or anywhere to put them. Anna and Greg found the underground network for backpack storage which is some guy in the parking lot of the Holiday Express. But, heads up, if you go to a show at the Garden, don't bring a backpack.

Props to me for looking like Eddie Izzard!

My boss's boss has a poster in her office called "Dublin Pubs." Naturally my eye is drawn to this during meetings because I am a fan of Dublin pubs and the delicious, delicious pear Bulmers they serve. (None of them were ones I'd been to, as far as I could tell.) A map and a sketch are inset at the bottom, and while I'm mildly curious as to why the map shows such a long pub crawl all over the metro Dublin area when I feel like it's more impressive and totally possible to get a complete poster's worth of equally interesting pub photos within any two block square, what I'm most curious about is why the sketch appears to be depict peasantishly dressed and Guinness-waving Kirk and Spock circa 2300.
