It was a grand night, and we came home with a heavy glass object that could certainly be used by Colonel Mustard in the study to bludgeon a whole host of miscreants. And I got to read a poem dedicated to our illustrious mayor:

The Red-Tied Mayor

So much depends

upon

the red-tied mayor
glazed with icy streets and parking meter issues

beside the
small but cheerful arts organizations.

Here’s a pic from good friend Chris Ransick. His title is brilliant:

PYRAMID AND DOME.

PYRAMID AND DOME

Of course, he can write that—he’s got a full head o’ hair.

And here’s one of Andrea and I—a rare picture of the two of us, I think, since one or the other is usually running around schlepping and/or taking pics ourselves.
