Tonight. The Middle East Upstairs. Scamper. Wheat. Ben and Vesper. You know the drill.
Next week, I'll be away from computators and PDFs and robits and all the things with little lights that buzz and blink on and off to remind you to shut them off. I'll be at my tri-annual macrame weaving festival/Est meeting.
So sadly, you're free on your own recognizances next week. No recap of the show on Monday. You're just going to have to come to the show and see all the really cool stuff that happens. Try not to act surprised when the llama shows up.
Have a good rest of June, ladies.

If i had the money or time, i would seriously launch a research project into the study of when the LLAMA first became a common object of comedic reference.
I grew up thinking that I personally had invented its humorous use, in the practice of calling my kid brother "llama-boy" for no apparent reason.
Next i discovered monty python's holy grail llama tally and realized, i wasn't first onto it.
Over the years i've realized that thowing a funny llama reference into a story is a pretty much universal american funny dude occurence.
Now obviously - llamas are funny looking, the word llama is fun to say, they are generally benevolent and lend themselves to thoughts of 'whimsey' and the sickos amoung us get milage out of that funny detached indepently controlled llama lip action that one witnesses when feeding one at a petting zoo.
But really, where did it start? python? before that? or are they just in the 'cosmic consciousness'?
Michael Jackson's association with llamas definitely kicked the comedy up a notch.
British llamas are the funniest:

llamas make me llaugh. Always have and I personally hate Monty Python so I didn't even know they made them "funny". llamas rock harder than Bon Jovi in ripped jeans.
At the risk of pissing off die-hard Bon Jovi fans, I'm not sure he's really "rocked" since the mid/late-90's... (Although he still looks pretty hot in those ripped jeans.)
