I had this weird dream about about cannibalist waffles, wandering about a

I haven't missed it. My 5 year old niece is addicted to Frozen,
which has two heroines. When I was a kid, stories often only had one,
so I agree: this heroine thing is really getting out of hand.

I hear the BJ museum is even more expensive, but the interactive
exhibits are worth the admission price.

I think our break-even point with lights was 42 people and we had 52
registrations. Plus we got $300 in sponsorship. And summer league
covered insurance for the year. I'm OK with us showing partial mercy
on her as a partial refund for a partial tear (or whatever it is).
Also, to be fair, I think a few of us might have had a hand in some
genetic modification on a night that combined disc golf, beer, a time
machine, and mutagentic material. Really, a terrible idea in hindsight...
