The Scene

John Waters "hate[s] to be the one to tell you" any number of things: that there is a website dedicated to "blossoms", that he was convicted of obscenity every time charged, that he's looking for a pre-teen contortionist to include in his road show, etc.

I've never been to Lite Brite but if it's good enough for John Waters, it's good enough for me.

I bought my ticket online yesterday. It's $25 for his show on Sunday but just $5 more for the 3-day pass. (7/25-27)

At lunch today, I picked up an organic scone filled with blackberry preserves at the Embrace Sweets booth.

The Prohibition Resistance Tour associated with Bockfest was postponed due to weather. Min Usha and I finally went on Saturday. It was entirely run by volunteers and pretty well organized overall.

The John Hauck House Museum was pretty interesting. There was victorian mourning hair art on the walls which is always fascinating and a little creepy.
