Just got back from the theater. My family and I were stuck in an elevator for around 30 minutes; it took the fire department to force the door open for us to get out. Then, the arms of both exits of the parking structure wouldn't open keeping us trapped for another 20 minutes. Oh, by the way, here's #17 Jerry Staley.

Phil, I hope the show was good enough to make all the other problems worth going to it.

Phil- had that happen once, it made a bang, dropped what felt like 10 feet, then we were stuck for 90 minutes. Never get in an elevator needing to go to the bathroom.

That's funny. Where I work I can walk up and back down one flight of stairs before our elevator makes one trip. Last night's adventure was more interesting than the show we attended.

Happy collecting!

Nellie Fox: Under the new grading standards this would probably be VG-EX. I would even consider it the same. Magnification certainly reveals dark, hidden realities. ;-)

It was "The Book of Mormon," my daughter got the tickets because she likes musicals and doing something as a family. I guess it was okay, the sound was loud and muddied and I discerned only about 60% of the dialogue. This was performed at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood which has a solid reputation, so it was a disappointing surprise. My preference is a serious drama or dark, biting satire. On the drive home, my wife and daughters expressed dislike for the show and the only appeal it had for me was the movements of the cast members while on stage.

I am a sixth-grade teacher soon to retire at the end of this school year. As we were walking down the street, my family heard someone call out my name. I turned to look and it was one of my current students who saw me passing by as she was looking out of a store window. Neither of us was anywhere close to the school where we battle, so it was both a pleasant surprise as well as a reminder that work can follow me anywhere.

Happy collecting to all and keep those 53 Bowman Color cards coming!
