Ok, well, I hate to be a drag, but I have to admit I’m pretty sad this morning, now that the Marc Maron Show is no longer here to keep me company (as if things weren’t lonely enough in this hot nasty town). Anyhow, I’ll try and carry on.
Down in Dupont Circle from 1 – 3 this afternoon there will be “participatory puppet theater and radical public education” as part of the International Day of Action against Climate Change and the G8. Seeing as it’s right there on the red line, and, surprisingly, my calendar happens to open at that time tomorrow, I reckon I’ll head down there. The notice says to bring music, drums, creativity, or just yourself. I’m sorely lacking in the first three (unless you count my mp3 player), so I’ll bring myslef and my camera, as we…
…join unsuspecting DC pedestrians, picniccers, and passersby at a surprise visit by the Group of 8 (G8) leaders here in DC! Some may meet, greet and shake the limp hands of the G8 dignitaries, while others will just mock and boo them ….. but all who listen to Prezident Butch speechify along with his fellow G8 G-Men will be shocked, awe-struck and most of all dumbfounded by their ingenious (or insane?) plan to prevent Planetary Climate Change, Chaos and Catastrophe through the help of resurgent super-powers KING COAL, BIGGER OIL, and NO-CLUE-U-R ENERGY ….”
Should be fun. Whatever you all do today, I hope you have a good one.
